409.407(1)(b) (b) Provides that the assignment or transfer or the creation, attachment, perfection, or enforcement of the security interest may give rise to a default, breach, right of recoupment, claim, defense, termination, right of termination, or remedy under the lease.
409.407(2) (2)Effectiveness of certain terms. Except as otherwise provided in s. 411.303 (7), a term described in sub. (1) (b) is effective to the extent that there is:
