(2) If it is stated in the notice that the land described in the articles of incorporation and the notice shall be subject to any indebtedness incurred by the corporation, all debts and obligations of the corporation theretofore and thereafter created shall be a lien upon the land described in the notice prior to every other lien attaching to the land subsequent to the time of recording of the notice, except state, county and school taxes, whether such debt or obligation of the corporation is in existence at the time the latter lien attaches or is created afterward. Such lien shall not be personal but shall be an obligation upon the land and run with the land.

(3) If, however, the landowners state in the notice that the land described in the articles of incorporation shall be subject to the lien of assessments by such corporation for the works and improvement of the land, then all the debts and obligations of the corporation shall be a direct obligation of the corporation with the irrevocable right of the creditors and obligees to have assessments made by the corporation for the payment of such debts and obligations pursuant to the provisions of ORS 554.005 to 554.340 and within the limitations, restrictions and provisions of the landowners’ notice. In such case every debt and obligation of the corporation created within the limitations and restrictions of the landowners’ notice is with the implied or express covenant that the corporation will make the assessments necessary to be made for the payment thereof as same may mature and be payable, and will prorate and apportion the same to all the described lands in accordance with the provisions of ORS 554.005 to 554.340 and the notice. Every assessment made pursuant to this subsection and the landowners’ notice by the corporation and prorated and apportioned pursuant to such notice within the limitations, restrictions and provisions thereof shall be a lien upon the acreage of such land as so assessed by the corporation, and the lien shall relate back, vest and attach thereto as of the time of filing for record of the landowners’ notice. Every other lien, right, title, interest and estate attaching, vesting or in any manner accruing or acquired subsequent to the filing of such landowners’ notice, whether before or after such assessment, except state, county and school taxes, shall be inferior and subject to the lien of such assessment.
