ORS 62.360
Recording cooperative contracts
(1)
A cooperative may record any contract authorized by ORS 62.355 (Cooperative contracts) in the office of the county clerk of the county in which the member resides or in which products covered by that contract have been or are to be produced. If the cooperative has substantially uniform contracts with more than one member residing or producing such products in any county, it may, in lieu of recording the original contracts, record:(a)
A true copy of the uniform contract; and(b)
A sworn list or sworn lists of the names of members who have executed such contract and who reside or produce such products in that county, and the effective date of the contract as to each such member.(2)
The county clerk shall record each such contract, and shall record alphabetically in the Cooperative Contract Record the name of each party to that contract. For recording such contract the fee is the same as for recording a contract under ORS 205.320 (Fees collected by county clerk).(3)
Recording pursuant to this section shall operate as constructive notice to all persons of the existence and contents of the contract. Any right, title, interest or lien created as to the products covered by the contract subsequent to such recording is subject to the cooperative’s right, title or interest under that contract. If the member creates any mortgage upon or other security interest in any such products subsequent to such contract recording, and if the member and the mortgagee or secured party jointly notify the cooperative in writing of the existence and amount of the mortgage or other security interest, all payments which after such notice become due from the cooperative to that member by reason of the cooperative’s sale or other handling of those products shall be paid by the cooperative to the mortgagee or other secured interest until the amount of the mortgage or secured party has been paid, and the balance thereafter shall be paid to the member.(4)
When a contract recorded under this section has been terminated in any manner, the cooperative shall give, upon demand, a statement of termination to the member party to the contract, who may record the statement in the office of the county clerk where the contract was originally filed or recorded. The county clerk shall record the termination and index the name of the member in the Cooperative Contract Record. A cooperative may record at any time in the office of the county clerk where the contract was originally filed or recorded, a sworn list of the names of all persons whose contracts have been terminated in any manner other than by expiration of their term, and the county clerk shall record the termination and index the name of each of those persons in the Cooperative Contract Record. The fee for recording and indexing a document under this section is the fee established in ORS 205.320 (Fees collected by county clerk).
