(1) A security interest that is enforceable immediately before this act takes effect and would have priority over the rights of a person who becomes a lien creditor at that time is a perfected security interest under this act if, when this act takes effect, the applicable requirements for enforceability and perfection under this act are satisfied without further action.

(a) Is a perfected security interest for 1 year after this act takes effect;
(b) Remains enforceable thereafter only if the security interest becomes enforceable under former s. 679.203 before the year expires; and
