(2).  With respect to any collateral acquired by the debtor subsequent to the effective date of public law 1977, chapter 526, any effective financing statement or continuation statement described in this section shall apply only if the filing or filings are in the office or offices that would be appropriate to perfect the security interests in the new collateral under the new code.
