interests.

(1) The priority of transfer perfected under KRS 278.686, 278.688, 278.690, and

278.692 shall not be impaired by any later modification of the financing o rder or

securitized property or by the commingling of funds arising from securitized

property with other funds. Any other security interest that may apply to those funds,

other than a security interest perfected under KRS 278.686 and 278.688 and this

section is terminated when those funds are transferred to a segregated account for

the assignee or a financing party. If securitized property has been transferred to an

assignee or financing party, any proceeds of that property shall be held in trust for

the assignee or financing party.

(2) The priority of the conflicting interest of assignees in the same interest or rights in

any securitized property shall be determined as follows:

(a) Conflicting perfected interests or rights of assignees rank according to priority

in time of perfection. Priority dates from the time of filing covering the

transfer shall be made in accordance with KRS 278.692;

(b) A perfected interest or right of an assignee has priority over a conflicting

unperfected interest or right of an assignee; and

(c) A perfected interest or right of an assignee has priority over a person who

becomes a lien creditor after the perfection of the assignee's interest or right.

(3) The description of securitized property being transferred to an assignee in any sale

agreement, purchase agreement, or other transfer agreement, granted or pledged to a

pledgee in any security agreement, pledge agreement, or other security document,

or indicated in any financing statement shall be sufficient only if the description o r

indication:

(a) Refers to the financing order that created the securitized property; and

(b) States that the agreement or financing statement covers all or part of the

property described in the financing order.

(4) KRS 278.670 to 278.696 and 65.114 shall apply to all purported transfers of, and all

purported grants, liens, or security interests in, securitized property, regardless of

whether the related sale agreement, purchase agreement, or transfer agreement,

security agreement, pledge agreement, or oth er security document was entered into,

or any financing statement was filed.
