Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.

Priority of purchase-money security interests.
(a) General rule: purchase-money priority. Except as otherwise
provided in subsection (g), a perfected purchase-money security interest in
goods
other than inventory or livestock has priority over a conflicting security
interest in
the same goods, and, except as otherwise provided in Section 9-327, a perfected
security interest in its identifiable proceeds also has priority, if the
purchase-money
security interest is perfected when the debtor receives possession of the
collateral or
within 20 days thereafter.
(b) Inventory purchase-money priority. Subject to subsection (c)
and except as otherwise provided in subsection (g), a perfected purchase-money
security interest in inventory has priority over a conflicting security
interest in the
same inventory, has priority over a conflicting security interest in chattel paper or
an instrument constituting proceeds of the inventory and in proceeds of the chattel
paper, if so provided in Section 9-330, and, except as otherwise provided in Section
9-327, also has priority in identifiable cash proceeds of the inventory to the extent
the identifiable cash proceeds are received on or before the delivery of the
inventory to a buyer, if:

| when the debtor receives possession of the inventory;
|
|
(2) the purchase-money secured party sends an
|
| authenticated notification to the holder of the conflicting security interest;
|
|
(3) the holder of the conflicting security interest
|
| receives the notification within five years before the debtor receives possession of the inventory; and

|
| the notification has or expects to acquire a purchase-money security interest in inventory of the debtor and describes the inventory.
|
|
(c) Holders of conflicting inventory security interests to be
notified. Subsections (b)(2) through (4) apply only if the holder of the conflicting
security interest had filed a financing statement covering the same types of
inventory:
(1) if the purchase-money security interest is
|
| perfected by filing, before the date of the filing; or
|
|
(2) if the purchase-money security interest is
|
| temporarily perfected without filing or possession under Section 9-312(f), before the beginning of the 20-day period thereunder.
|
|
(d) Livestock purchase-money priority. Subject to subsection (e)
and except as otherwise provided in subsection (g), a perfected purchase-money
security interest in livestock that are farm products has priority over a conflicting
security interest in the same livestock, and, except as otherwise provided in Section
9-327, a perfected security interest in their identifiable proceeds and identifiable
products in their unmanufactured states also has priority, if:
(1) the purchase-money security interest is perfected
|
| when the debtor receives possession of the livestock;
|
|
(2) the purchase-money secured party sends an
|
| authenticated notification to the holder of the conflicting security interest;
|
|
(3) the holder of the conflicting security interest
|
| receives the notification within six months before the debtor receives possession of the livestock; and
|
|
(4) the notification states that the person sending
|
| the notification has or expects to acquire a purchase-money security interest in livestock of the debtor and describes the livestock.
|
|
(e) Holders of conflicting livestock security interests to be
notified. Subsections (d)(2) through (4) apply only if the holder of the conflicting
security interest had filed a financing statement covering the same types of
livestock:
(1) if the purchase-money security interest is
|
| perfected by filing, before the date of the filing; or
|
|
(2) if the purchase-money security interest is
|
| temporarily perfected without filing or possession under Section 9-312(f), before the beginning of the 20-day period thereunder.
|
|
(f) Software purchase-money priority. Except as otherwise
provided in subsection (g), a perfected purchase-money security interest in software
has priority over a conflicting security interest in the same collateral, and, except as
otherwise provided in Section 9-327, a perfected security interest in its identifiable
proceeds also has priority, to the extent that the purchase-money security interest in
the goods in which the software was acquired for use has priority in the goods and
proceeds of the goods under this Section.
(g) Conflicting purchase-money security interests. If more than
one security interest qualifies for priority in the same collateral under
subsection
(a), (b), (d), or (f):
(1) a security interest securing an obligation
|
| incurred as all or part of the price of the collateral has priority over a security interest securing an obligation incurred for value given to enable the debtor to acquire rights in or the use of collateral; and
|
|
(2) in all other cases, Section 9-322(a) applies to
|
| the qualifying security interests.
