(b) Continuing priority over lien creditor: perfection requirements not satisfied. Except as otherwise provided in § 9–705, if, immediately before this article takes effect, a security interest is enforceable and would have priority over the rights of a person that becomes a lien creditor at that time, but the applicable requirements for enforceability or perfection under this article are not satisfied when this article takes effect, the security interest:
-
(1) is a perfected security interest for one year after this article takes effect;
-
(2) remains enforceable thereafter only if the security interest becomes enforceable under § 9–203 before the year expires; and
-
(3) remains perfected thereafter only if the applicable requirements for perfection under this article are satisfied before the year expires.
