The Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) is a set of business laws that regulate financial contracts and transactions employed across states. The UCC code consists of nine separate articles, each of which covers separate aspects of banking and loans.
First, the debtor must send an authenticated demand to the secured party. The demand should be sent to the name/address of the secured party as indicated on the financing statement. The secured party has 20 days to either terminate the filing or send a termination statement to the debtor that the debtor can then file.
However, you may extend a UCC-1 filing before the end of the five-year period. You have the opportunity to file a continuation statement. You must file this continuation statement within six months before the initial filing's lapse date or expiration.
Ask the lender to terminate the lien upon payoff. A good rule of thumb is to request that your lender file a UCC-3 form with your secretary of state as soon as possible after you pay off your loan. The UCC-3 will terminate the lien on your company's assets (or assets) and remove the UCC-1 filing.
For UCC and EFS, a termination creates a public record that a loan was repaid, a lien was removed, or some other obligation was met.
