136. Transfers of present and future rents produced by an immovable, and transfers of indemnities provided by the insurance contracts covering the rents, become immovable hypothecs; they rank according to the date of registration of the acts in which they are contained, unless they have a different rank under the former legislation. Any such transfer not contained in an act entered either in the index of immovables in territory with a cadastral survey or in the index of names in territory without a cadastral survey requires, to conserve its rank, renewal of registration or registration, as the case may be, in the land register before 27 February 1996; the renewal or registration are effected by notice.
Transfers by bill of lading become conventional hypothecs and conserve their initial rank, provided they are registered before 27 February 1996.
