Del. Code Ann. tit. 6, § 9-108

Sufficiency of description

72 Del. Laws, c. 401, § 1;
  1. (a) Sufficiency of description. — Except as otherwise provided in subsections (c), (d), and (e), a description of personal or real property is sufficient, whether or not it is specific, if it reasonably identifies what is described.
  2. (b) Examples of reasonable identification. — Except as otherwise provided in subsection (d), a description of collateral reasonably identifies the collateral if it identifies the collateral by:

    1. (1) specific listing;
    2. (2) category;
    3. (3) except as otherwise provided in subsection (e), a type of collateral defined in the Uniform Commercial Code;
    4. (4) quantity;
    5. (5) computational or allocational formula or procedure; or
    6. (6) except as otherwise provided in subsection (c), any other method, if the identity of the collateral is objectively determinable.
  3. (c) Supergeneric description not sufficient. — A description of collateral as “all the debtor’s assets” or “all the debtor’s personal property” or using words of similar import does not reasonably identify the collateral.
  4. (d) Investment property. — Except as otherwise provided in subsection (e), a description of a security entitlement, securities account, or commodity account is sufficient if it describes:

    1. (1) the collateral by those terms or as investment property; or
    2. (2) the underlying financial asset or commodity contract.
  5. (e) When description by type insufficient. — A description only by type of collateral defined in the Uniform Commercial Code is an insufficient description of:

    1. (1) a commercial tort claim; or
    2. (2) in a consumer transaction, consumer goods, a security entitlement, a securities account, or a commodity account.
