Tex. Business & Commerce Code § 9.705

(a) If action, other than the filing of a financing statement, is taken before the revision takes effect and the action would have resulted in priority of a security interest over the rights of a person that becomes a lien creditor had the security interest become enforceable before the revision takes effect, the action is effective to perfect a security interest that attaches under this chapter, as revised, within one year after the effective date of the revision. An attached security interest becomes unperfected on July 1, 2002, unless the security interest becomes a perfected security interest under this chapter, as revised, before that date.

(b) The filing of a financing statement before the effective date of the revision is effective to perfect a security interest to the extent the filing would satisfy the applicable requirements for perfection under this chapter, as revised.

(c) The revision does not render ineffective an effective financing statement that, before the effective date of the revision, is filed and satisfies the applicable requirements for perfection under the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in Section 9.103, as it existed immediately before the effective date of the revision. However, except as otherwise provided in Subsections (d), (e), and (g) and Section 9.706, the financing statement ceases to be effective at the earlier of:

(1) the time the financing statement would have ceased to be effective under the law of the jurisdiction in which it is filed; or

(2) June 30, 2006.

(d) The filing of a continuation statement after the revision takes effect does not continue the effectiveness of the financing statement filed before the revision takes effect. However, upon the timely filing of a continuation statement after the revision takes effect and in accordance with the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in Subchapter C, as revised, the effectiveness of a financing statement filed in the same office in that jurisdiction before the revision takes effect continues for the period provided by the law of that jurisdiction.

(e) Subsection (c)(2) applies to a financing statement that, before the revision takes effect, is filed against a transmitting utility and satisfies the applicable requirements for perfection under the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in Section 9.103, as it existed immediately before the effective date of the revision, only to the extent that Subchapter C, as revised, provides that the law of a jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction in which the financing statement is filed governs perfection of a security interest in collateral covered by the financing statement.

(f) A financing statement that includes a financing statement filed before the revision takes effect and a continuation statement filed after the revision takes effect is effective only to the extent that it satisfies the requirements of Subchapter E, as revised, for an initial financing statement.

(g) Subsection (c)(2) does not apply to a financing statement that was filed before July 1, 2001, in the proper office in this state pursuant to Section 9.401, as that section existed immediately before July 1, 2001, and as to which the proper filing office was not changed pursuant to Section 9.501 of the revision. The lapse date of such a financing statement is the day when the financing statement would have ceased to be effective under Section 9.403(b), as that section existed immediately before July 1, 2001. On timely filing of a continuation statement within six months before that lapse date, the effectiveness of the financing statement continues for another period of five years commencing on the lapse date, and succeeding continuation statements may be filed within six months before the expiration of the five-year period and each additional five-year period to continue the effectiveness of the financing statement.
