§9-1108. Sufficiency of description
(1). Except as otherwise provided in subsections (3), (4) and (5), a description of personal or real property is sufficient, whether or not it is specific, if it reasonably identifies what is described.

(b). Category; [1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §2 (NEW); 1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §4 (AFF).]
(c). Except as otherwise provided in subsection (5), a type of collateral defined in this Title; [1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §2 (NEW); 1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §4 (AFF).]

(f). Except as otherwise provided in subsection (3), any other method, if the identity of the collateral is objectively determinable. [1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §2 (NEW); 1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §4 (AFF).]
[ 1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §2 (NEW); 1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §4 (AFF) .]
(3). A description of collateral as "all the debtor's assets" or "all the debtor's personal property" or using words of similar import does not reasonably identify the collateral.
[ 1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §2 (NEW); 1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §4 (AFF) .]
(4). Except as otherwise provided in subsection (5), a description of a security entitlement, securities account or commodity account is sufficient if it describes:

[ 1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §2 (NEW); 1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §4 (AFF) .]
(5). A description only by type of collateral defined in this Title is an insufficient description of:
(a). A commercial tort claim; or [1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §2 (NEW); 1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §4 (AFF).]
(b). In a consumer transaction, consumer goods, a security entitlement, a securities account or a commodity account. [1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §2 (NEW); 1999, c. 699, Pt. A, §4 (AFF).]
