Every person desiring to perfect the person's lien shall record with the recorder of the county in which the property to be charged with the lien is situated, within ninety days after all the person's contribution is done, and having complied with the provisions of this chapter, a lien describing the property and stating the amount due, the dates of the first and last contribution, and the person with which the claimant contracted. Unless the owner of the freehold estate also is the owner of the leasehold for wind turbines or an electric energy conversion facility for which the labor, materials, or services were supplied, if a recorded lien is for a wind turbine or associated facility under section 17-04-07, the recorded lien must contain the following statement in at least sixteen-point type: The lien in this chapter attaches only to the leasehold for an electric energy conversion facility or wind turbines for which labor, materials, or services were supplied. This lien does not attach to or encumber the real property or freehold estate. Failure to include the statement required under this section in the statement of the lien does not invalidate a lien on the leasehold or electric energy conversion facility.
