(a) The rights and interests of the independent organization or its successor under a debt obligation order issued under this subchapter, including the right to impose, collect, and receive uplift charges authorized in a debt obligation order under this subchapter, shall be only contract rights until they are first transferred to an assignee or pledged in connection with the issuance of a financing agreement entered into under Section 39.654(a) or the issuance of debt obligations, at which time they will become uplift property, as described by Subsection (b).

(b) Uplift property shall constitute a present property right for purposes of contracts concerning the sale or pledge of property, even though the imposition and collection of uplift charges depends on further acts of the independent organization or others that have not yet occurred. A debt obligation order issued under this subchapter shall remain in effect and the property shall continue to exist for the same period as the pledge of the state described by Section 39.663.

(c) All revenues and collections resulting from uplift charges shall constitute proceeds only of the uplift property arising from the debt obligation order.
