(1) All or any portion of the security property may be pledged or otherwise used by the issuing entity as collateral or other security to secure the payment of financing costs. Except as specifically provided in Sections 77-3-111 through 77-3-127 or in any of the financing documents, only Sections 77-3-111 through 77-3-127 and not the Uniform Commercial Code shall govern:

(a) Security property and any right, title or interest of an electric public utility, an assignee or an issuing entity, whether before or after the issuance of a financing order, in such security property;

(b) The validity, creation, attachment, grant, perfection, priority and enforcement of liens and security interests in security property to secure payment of financing costs;

(c) The validity, attachment, perfection and priority with respect to the transfer of an interest or right or the pledge or creation of a security interest in any security property.

(2) A valid, enforceable and attached lien and security interest in security property shall be created upon the occurrence of all of the following and in no other manner:

(a) The issuance of a financing order contemplating a security interest in the security property;

(b) The execution and delivery of a security agreement by the issuing entity in connection with the issuance of rate reduction bonds which grants a security interest in the security property; and

(c) The giving of value for the rate reduction bonds.

(3) A valid, enforceable and attached security interest may be created in the security property without any physical delivery of collateral or other act, and shall be perfected against all parties upon the filing of a financing statement in the Office of the Secretary of State of Mississippi and shall thereafter be a continuously perfected lien, and such security interest in security property shall have priority over any other lien, created by contract, operation of law or otherwise, which may subsequently be perfected in the security property unless the holder of any such prior lien has agreed in writing otherwise.

(4) Any sale, assignment, transfer or conveyance of an interest in security property shall not affect the priority of a security interest previously perfected in such security property against all parties having claims of any kind, including any judicial lien or other lien creditors or any claims of the assignor or creditors of the assignor, other than creditors holding a prior security interest, ownership interest or assignment in the security property previously perfected in accordance with Sections 77-3-111 through 77-3-127.

(5) The filing of a financing statement with the Office of the Secretary of State of Mississippi in accordance with this section shall be the only method of perfecting a lien on or security interest in security property. The Office of the Secretary of State of Mississippi shall maintain any financing statement filed pursuant to this section in the same manner that the Office of the Secretary of State of Mississippi maintains financing statements filed against transmitting utilities under Section 75-9-501(b). The filing of any financing statement pursuant to this section shall be governed by the provisions regarding the filing of financing statements in Part 5 of Chapter 9, Title 75 of the Mississippi Code of 1972, codified at Miss. Code Ann. Section 75-9-501 et seq.; provided, however, no continuation statement need be filed to maintain a perfected, valid, enforceable and attached security interest in security property.

(6) The priority of a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lien or security interest perfected in security property pursuant to Sections 77-3-111 through 77-3-127 is not impaired by any later modification of the financing order or security property, any application of the true-up adjustment mechanism, or by the commingling of funds arising from the security property with other funds of an electric public utility or collection agent, and any other right, title, lien or security interest that may apply to those funds shall be terminated as to all funds transferred to an issuing entity, assignee, or financing party directly or transferred to a segregated account for the benefit of an issuing entity, assignee, or financing party.

(7) The description of security property being sold, assigned, transferred or conveyed to an assignee in any sale agreement, purchase agreement, or other transfer agreement, granted or pledged to a secured party in any security agreement, pledge agreement, or other security document, or indicated in any financing statement, shall be sufficient if it describes the financing order that created the security property and states that such agreement or financing statement covers all or part of the security property described in such financing order. This subsection applies to all purported sales, assignments, transfers or conveyances of, and all purported grants or liens or security interests in, security property, regardless of whether the related agreements were entered into or financing statements were filed, before or after the original effective date of this subsection.

(8) Any right, title or interest pertaining to a financing order, including, but not limited to, the associated security property and rate reduction bond charge revenues shall not be deemed proceeds of any right or interest other than in the financing order and the security property arising from the financing order.
