LAW GOVERNING PERFECTION AND PRIORITY OF SECURITY INTERESTS IN
CHATTEL PAPER
(a)  Except as provided in subsection (d) of this section, if
chattel paper is evidenced only by an authoritative electronic copy
of the chattel paper or is evidenced by an authoritative electronic
copy and an authoritative tangible copy, the local law of the
chattel paper's jurisdiction governs perfection, the effect of
perfection or nonperfection, and the priority of a security interest
in the chattel paper, even if the transaction does not bear any
relation to the chattel paper's jurisdiction.
(b)  The following rules determine the chattel paper's
jurisdiction under this section:
(1)  If the authoritative electronic copy of the record
evidencing chattel paper, or a record attached to or logically

associated with the electronic copy and readily available for
review, expressly provides that a particular jurisdiction is the
chattel paper's jurisdiction for purposes of this part, this
article, or the Uniform Commercial Code, that jurisdiction is the
chattel paper's jurisdiction.
(2)  If paragraph (1) of this subsection does not apply and the
rules of the system in which the authoritative electronic copy is
recorded are readily available for review and expressly provide that
a particular jurisdiction is the chattel paper's jurisdiction for
purposes of this part, this article, or the Uniform Commercial Code,
that jurisdiction is the chattel paper's jurisdiction.
(3)  If paragraphs (1) and (2) of this subsection do not apply
and the authoritative electronic copy, or a record attached to or
logically associated with the electronic copy and readily available
for review, expressly provides that the chattel paper is governed by
the law of a particular jurisdiction, that jurisdiction is the
chattel paper's jurisdiction.
(4)  If paragraphs (1), (2), and (3) of this subsection do not
apply and the rules of the system in which the authoritative
electronic copy is recorded are readily available for review and
expressly provide that the chattel paper or the system is governed
by the law of a particular jurisdiction, that jurisdiction is the
chattel paper's jurisdiction.
(5)  If paragraphs (1) through (4) of this subsection do not
apply, the chattel paper's jurisdiction is the jurisdiction in which
the debtor is located.
(c)  If an authoritative tangible copy of a record evidences
chattel paper and the chattel paper is not evidenced by an
authoritative electronic copy, while the authoritative tangible copy
of the record evidencing chattel paper is located in a jurisdiction,
the local law of that jurisdiction governs:
(1)  perfection of a security interest in the chattel paper by
possession under Section 9-314A of this title; and
(2)  the effect of perfection or nonperfection and the priority
of a security interest in the chattel paper.
(d)  The local law of the jurisdiction in which the debtor is
located governs perfection of a security interest in chattel paper
by filing.
