Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. If a security agreement covers both personal and real property, a secured party may 
proceed:
a. Under this part as to the personal property without prejudicing any rights with 
respect to the real property; or
b. As to both the personal property and the real property in accordance with the 
rights with respect to the real property, in which case the other provisions of this 
part do not apply.
2. Subject to subsection 3, if a security agreement covers goods that are or become 
fixtures, a secured party may proceed:
a. Under this part; or
b. In accordance with the rights with respect to real property, in which case the other 
provisions of this part do not apply.
3. Subject to the other provisions of this part, if a secured party holding a security interest 
in fixtures has priority over all owners and encumbrancers of the real property, the 
secured party, after default, may remove the collateral from the real property.
4. A secured party that removes collateral shall promptly reimburse any encumbrancer or 
owner of the real property, other than the debtor, for the cost of repair of any physical 
injury caused by the removal. The secured party need not reimburse the 
encumbrancer or owner for any diminution in value of the real property caused by the 
absence of the goods removed or by any necessity of replacing them. A person 
entitled to reimbursement may refuse permission to remove until the secured party 
gives adequate assurance for the performance of the obligation to reimburse.
