1. A share or similar equity interest issued by a corporation, business trust, joint stock company or similar entity is a security. 2. An investment company security is a security. Investment company security means a share or similar equity interest issued by an entity that is registered as an investment company under the federal investment company laws, an interest in a unit investment trust that is so registered or a face-amount certificate issued by a face-amount certificate company that is so registered. The term does not include an insurance policy or endowment policy or annuity contract issued by an insurance company. 3. An interest in a partnership or limited-liability company is not a security unless it is dealt in or traded on securities exchanges or in securities markets, its terms expressly provide that it is a security governed by this Article, or it is an investment company security. However, an interest in a partnership or limited-liability company is a financial asset if it is held in a securities account. 4. A writing that is a security certificate is governed by this Article and not by Article 3, even though it also meets the requirements of that Article. However, a negotiable instrument governed by Article 3 is a financial asset if it is held in a securities account. 5. An option or similar obligation issued by a clearing corporation to its participants is not a security, but is a financial asset. 6. A commodity contract, as defined in paragraph (p) of subsection 1 of NRS 104.9102 , is not a security or a financial asset. 7. A document of title is not a financial asset unless subparagraph (3) of paragraph (j) of subsection 1 of NRS 104.8102 applies. 8. A controllable account, controllable electronic record or controllable payment intangible is not a financial asset unless subparagraph (3) of paragraph (j) of subsection 1 of NRS 104.8102 applies.
