termination statement in the office in which the pre-effective-date
financing statement is filed, unless an initial financing statement that
satisfies Section 9--706 (c) has been filed in the office specified by
the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in Part 3
as the office in which to file a financing statement.
