48-9-8. Priority; assignment; representation.

A.     Liens or claims for taxes measured by the value of product and royalty payments due the state, whether under the Oil and Gas Products Lien Act [48-9-1 to 48-9-8 NMSA 1978] or other acts, shall have a first, superior and paramount priority. The purchase money security interest and lien provided by the Oil and Gas Products Lien Act shall then and thereafter be preferred to and have priority over any other lien, mortgage, security interest or other encumbrance which may attach to or be asserted against the unpaid for products severed from a production unit or the proceeds of product if such product has been sold by the first purchaser, except liens under the Oil and Gas Lien Act [70-4-1 to 70-4-15 NMSA 1978] and perfected liens of common carriers provided by Sections 48-3-8, 65-2-51 and 63-3-12 NMSA 1978 or under published tariff schedules.   

B.     The purchase money security interest and lien granted to an interest owner under the provisions of the Oil and Gas Products Lien Act may be assigned, in whole or in part; provided, however, that the rights of any assignee shall be the same as those of the assignor; and, provided further, however, that any deed of trust, mortgage or security agreement executed by an interest owner in favor of another and covering products severed or to be severed from a production unit shall also be deemed an assignment of the interest owner's rights under this act.   

C.     Any first purchaser who takes, receives or purchases products severed or to be severed from a production unit shall be deemed to make a continuing representation that he will not take, receive or purchase products while insolvent.
