Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. To the extent necessary for a
securities intermediary to satisfy all security entitlements with respect to a
particular financial asset, all interests in that financial asset held by the
securities intermediary are held by the securities intermediary for the entitlement
holders, are not the property of the securities intermediary and are not
subject to claims of creditors of the securities intermediary, except as
otherwise provided in NRS 104.8511 .
2. An entitlement holders property
interest with respect to a particular financial asset under subsection 1 is a
pro rata property interest in all interests in that financial asset held by the
securities intermediary, without regard to the time the entitlement holder
acquired the security entitlement or the time the securities intermediary
acquired the interest in that financial asset.
3. An entitlement holders property
interest with respect to a particular financial asset under subsection 1 may be
enforced against the securities intermediary only by exercise of the
entitlement holders rights under NRS
104.8505 to 104.8508 , inclusive.
4. An entitlement holders property
interest with respect to a particular financial asset under subsection 1 may be
enforced against a purchaser of the financial asset or interest therein only
if:
(a) Insolvency proceedings have been initiated by
or against the securities intermediary;
(b) The securities intermediary does not have
sufficient interests in the financial asset to satisfy the security
entitlements of all of its entitlement holders to that financial asset;
(c) The securities intermediary violated its
obligations under NRS 104.8504 by
transferring the financial asset or interest therein to the purchaser; and
(d) The purchaser is not protected under
subsection 5.
The trustee
or other liquidator, acting on behalf of all entitlement holders having
security entitlements with respect to a particular financial asset, may recover
the financial asset, or interest therein, from the purchaser. If the trustee or
other liquidator elects not to pursue that right, an entitlement holder whose
security entitlement remains unsatisfied has the right to recover its interest
in the financial asset from the purchaser.
5. An action based on the entitlement
holders property interest with respect to a particular financial asset under
subsection 1, whether framed in conversion, replevin, constructive trust,
equitable lien or other theory, may not be asserted against any purchaser of a
financial asset or interest therein who gives value, obtains control and does
not act in collusion with the securities intermediary in violating the
securities intermediarys obligations under NRS
104.8504 .
