The subordinate assignee shall turn over to the assignee with priority any proceeds that the subordinate assignee collects after the subordinate assignee receives the notice from the assignee with priority that the assignee with priority is enforcing the interest in rents of the assignee with priority not later than the 30th day after the date the subordinate assignee receives the notice or as otherwise agreed between the assignee with priority and the subordinate assignee. Any proceeds subsequently collected by the subordinate assignee shall be turned over to the assignee with priority not later than the 10th day after the date the proceeds are collected or as otherwise agreed between the assignee with priority and the subordinate assignee.Amended by Acts 2013, 83rd Leg. - Regular Session, ch. 453,Sec. 10, eff. 6/14/2013.Added by Acts 2011, 82nd Leg., R.S., Ch. 636, Sec. 2, eff. 6/17/2011.
