     30-9A-505. Filing and compliance with other statutes and treaties for consignments, leases, bailments, and other transactions. (1) A consignor, lessor, or bailor of goods or a buyer of a payment intangible or promissory note may file a financing statement or may comply with a statute or treaty described in 30-9A-311(1), using the terms "consignor", "consignee", "lessor", "lessee", "bailor", "bailee", "owner", "registered owner", "buyer", "seller", or words of similar import, instead of the terms "secured party" and "debtor."
     (2) This part applies to the filing of a financing statement under subsection (1) and, as appropriate, to compliance that is equivalent to filing a financing statement under 30-9A-311(2), but the filing or compliance is not of itself a factor in determining whether the collateral secures an obligation. If it is determined for another reason that the collateral secures an obligation, a security interest held by the consignor, lessor, bailor, owner, or buyer that attaches to the collateral is perfected by the filing or compliance.
