409.203 409.203 Attachment and enforceability of security interest; proceeds; supporting obligations; formal requisites.
409.203(1)(1)Attachment. A security interest attaches to collateral when it becomes enforceable against the debtor with respect to the collateral, unless an agreement expressly postpones the time of attachment.
409.203(2) (2)Enforceability. Except as otherwise provided in subs. (3) to (9), a security interest is enforceable against the debtor and 3rd parties with respect to the collateral only if:
409.203(2)(a) (a) Value has been given;
409.203(2)(b) (b) The debtor has rights in the collateral or the power to transfer rights in the collateral to a secured party; and
409.203(2)(c) (c) One of the following conditions is met:
409.203(2)(c)1. 1. The debtor has authenticated a security agreement that provides a description of the collateral and, if the security interest covers timber to be cut, a description of the land concerned;
409.203(2)(c)2. 2. The collateral is not a certificated security and is in the possession of the secured party under s. 409.313 pursuant to the debtor's security agreement;
409.203(2)(c)3. 3. The collateral is a certificated security in registered form and the security certificate has been delivered to the secured party under s. 408.301 pursuant to the debtor's security agreement; or
409.203(2)(c)4. 4. The collateral is deposit accounts, electronic chattel paper, investment property, or letter-of-credit rights, and the secured party has control under s. 409.104, 409.105, 409.106, or 409.107 pursuant to the debtor's security agreement.
409.203(3) (3)Other uniform commercial code provisions. Subsection (2) is subject to s. 404.210 on the security interest of a collecting bank, s. 405.118 on the security interest of a letter-of-credit issuer or nominated person, s. 409.110 on a security interest arising under ch. 402 or 411, and s. 409.206 on security interests in investment property.
409.203(4) (4)When person becomes bound by another person's security agreement.
409.203(4)(a)(a) A person becomes bound as debtor by a security agreement entered into by another person if, by operation of law other than this chapter or by contract:
409.203(4)(a)1. 1. The security agreement becomes effective to create a security interest in the person's property; or
409.203(4)(a)2. 2. The person becomes generally obligated for the obligations of the other person, including the obligation secured under the security agreement, and acquires or succeeds to all or substantially all of the assets of the other person.
409.203(4)(b) (b) A security agreement authenticated by one spouse is authenticated by the debtor under this section if that spouse acting alone has the right under s. 766.51 to manage and control the collateral, unless a marital property agreement or court decree that is binding on the secured party under s. 766.55 (4m) or 766.56 (2) (c) provides otherwise.
409.203(5) (5)Effect of new debtor becoming bound. If a new debtor becomes bound as debtor by a security agreement entered into by another person:
409.203(5)(a) (a) The agreement satisfies sub. (2) (c) with respect to existing or after-acquired property of the new debtor to the extent that the property is described in the agreement; and
409.203(5)(b) (b) Another agreement is not necessary to make a security interest in the property enforceable.
409.203(6) (6)Proceeds and supporting obligations. The attachment of a security interest in collateral gives the secured party the rights to proceeds provided by s. 409.315 and is also attachment of a security interest in a supporting obligation for the collateral.
409.203(7) (7)Lien securing right to payment. The attachment of a security interest in a right to payment or performance secured by a security interest or other lien on personal or real property is also attachment of a security interest in the security interest, mortgage, or other lien.
409.203(8) (8)Security entitlement carried in securities account. The attachment of a security interest in a securities account is also attachment of a security interest in the security entitlements carried in the securities account.
409.203(9) (9)Commodity contracts carried in commodity account. The attachment of a security interest in a commodity account is also attachment of a security interest in the commodity contracts carried in the commodity account.

409.203 Annotation If the terms of a security agreement establish that attachment is contingent on subsequent specification of the collateral, the secured party has no security interest before the satisfaction of the contingency. A security agreement requiring the designation of the accounts to serve as collateral gave no security interest when no designation was made. Sierra Finance Corp. v. Excel Laboratories, LLC, 223 Wis. 2d 694, 589 N.W.2d 432 (Ct. App. 1998).
409.203 Note NOTE: The above annotated materials cite to the pre-2001 Wis. Act 10 version of s. 409.203.
409.204 409.204 After-acquired property; future advances.
409.204(1)(1)After-acquired collateral. Except as otherwise provided in sub. (2), a security agreement may create or provide for a security interest in after-acquired collateral.

409.204(2)(a) (a) Consumer goods, other than an accession when given as additional security, unless the debtor acquires rights in them within 10 days after the secured party gives value; or
409.204(2)(b) (b) A commercial tort claim.
409.204(3) (3)Future advances and other value. A security agreement may provide that collateral secures, or that accounts, chattel paper, payment intangibles, or promissory notes are sold in connection with, future advances or other value, whether or not the advances or value are given pursuant to commitment.
409.204 History History: 2001 a. 10.
409.204 Annotation A security agreement covering money lent "and all other obligations and liabilities" will not extend to obligations arising out of contract violations unless they were clearly within the intent of the parties. John Miller Supply Co. v. Western State Bank, 55 Wis. 2d 385, 199 N.W.2d 161 (1972).
409.204 Annotation Priorities of "future advances" under previously perfected security interests and article 9 of the U.C.C. 58 MLR 759.
409.204 Annotation Security interests in after-acquired property under the uniform commercial code. Skilton, 1974 WLR 925.
409.204 Note NOTE: The above annotated materials cite to the pre-2001 Wis. Act 10 version of s. 409.204.
409.205 409.205 Use or disposition of collateral permissible.
409.205(1)(1)When security interest not invalid or fraudulent. A security interest is not invalid or fraudulent against creditors solely because:
409.205(1)(a) (a) The debtor has the right or ability to:
409.205(1)(a)1. 1. Use, commingle, or dispose of all or part of the collateral, including returned or repossessed goods;
409.205(1)(a)2. 2. Collect, compromise, enforce, or otherwise deal with collateral;
409.205(1)(a)3. 3. Accept the return of collateral or make repossessions; or
409.205(1)(a)4. 4. Use, commingle, or dispose of proceeds; or
409.205(1)(b) (b) The secured party fails to require the debtor to account for proceeds or replace collateral.
409.205(2) (2)Requirements of possession not relaxed. This section does not relax the requirements of possession if attachment, perfection, or enforcement of a security interest depends upon possession of the collateral by the secured party.
409.205 History History: 2001 a. 10.
409.205 Annotation Under s. 409.205 the debtor is freed from strict accountability to the secured creditor for the property secured, and the validity of a secured interest in after-acquired property is specifically recognized. When a creditor has a security interest in the debtor's after-acquired property the debtor is able to commingle his property and use it to his best interest. The acquiescence of the secured creditor under an after-acquired clause by the debtor does not invalidate the security interest of the creditor. Burlington National Bank v. Strauss, 50 Wis. 2d 270, 184 N.W.2d 122 (1971).
