Sec. 23.
(1) This act governs the creation, perfection, priority, and enforcement of any pledge of revenues or other security made by the authority under this act. Each pledge of the authority is valid and binding as of the time the pledge is made. The encumbered revenues, reserves or earnings pledged, or earnings on the investment of the encumbered revenues, reserves, or earnings pledged are immediately subject to the lien created under the pledge without any physical delivery or further act. The lien is valid and binding against all parties having claims of any kind in tort, contract, or otherwise against the authority, whether or not the parties have notice of the lien or pledge or whether the pledge or lien has been recorded. The resolution or other instrument by which a pledge is created is not required to be recorded.
(2) This act also governs the negotiability of bonds issued under this act. Any bonds issued under this act are fully negotiable within the meaning and for all purposes of the uniform commercial code, 1962 PA 174, MCL 440.1101 to 440.11102. By accepting the bond or obligation, each owner of a bond or other obligation of the authority shall be conclusively considered to have agreed that the bond is and shall be fully negotiable within the meaning and for all purposes of the uniform commercial code, 1962 PA 174, MCL 440.1101 to 440.11102.
