Section 7-2A-218 Insurance and proceeds. (1) A lessee obtains an insurable interest when existing
goods are identified to the lease contract even though the goods identified are nonconforming
and the lessee has an option to reject them. (2) If a lessee has an insurable interest only
by reason of the lessor's identification of the goods, the lessor, until the lessor's default
or insolvency or notification to the lessee that identification is final, may substitute other
goods for those identified. (3) Notwithstanding a lessee's insurable interest under subsections
(1) and (2), the lessor retains an insurable interest until an option to buy has been exercised
by the lessee and risk of loss has passed to the lessee. For this purpose the option to buy
shall be deemed to have been exercised by the lessee when the resulting sale is closed, not
when the lessee gives notice to the lessor of the lessee's intention to exercise the option.
(4) Nothing in this section impairs any insurable interest...
