§12A-2-501.
(1) The buyer obtains a special property and an insurable interest in
goods by identification of existing goods as goods to which the
contract refers even though the goods so identified are nonconforming
and he has an option to return or reject them. Such identification can
be made at any time and in any manner explicitly agreed to by the
parties. In the absence of explicit agreement identification occurs
(a) when the contract is made if it is for the sale of goods already
existing and identified;
(b) if the contract is for the sale of future goods other than those
described in paragraph (c), when goods are shipped, marked or
otherwise designated by the seller as goods to which the contract
refers;
(c) when the crops are planted or otherwise become growing crops or
the young are conceived if the contract is for the sale of unborn
young to be born within twelve (12) months after contracting or for
the Sale of crops to be harvested within twelve (12) months or the
next normal harvest season after contracting whichever is longer.
(2) The seller retains an insurable interest in goods so long as title
to or any security interest in the goods remains in him and where the
identification is by the seller alone he may until default or
insolvency or notification to the buyer that the identification is
final substitute other goods for those identified.
(3) Nothing in this section impairs any insurable interest recognized
under any other statute or rule of law.
