SB9-SSA1,55,5 (b) Another agreement is not necessary to make a security interest in the property enforceable.

SB9-SSA1,55,9 (6) Proceeds and supporting obligations. The attachment of a security interest in collateral gives the secured party the rights to proceeds provided by s. 409.315 and is also attachment of a security interest in a supporting obligation for the collateral.

SB9-SSA1,55,13 (7) Lien securing right to payment. The attachment of a security interest in a right to payment or performance secured by a security interest or other lien on personal or real property is also attachment of a security interest in the security interest, mortgage, or other lien.

SB9-SSA1,56,11 409.205 Use or disposition of collateral permissible. (1) When security interest not invalid or fraudulent. A security interest is not invalid or fraudulent against creditors solely because:
