(1) In a case not covered by the priority rules in Article 9 of this chapter or the rules stated in subsection (3) of this section, an action based on an adverse claim to a <br>financial asset or security entitlement, whether framed in conversion, replevin, <br>constructive trust, equitable lien, or other theory, may not be asserted against a <br>person who purchases a security entitlement, or an interest therein, from an <br>entitlement holder if the purchaser gives value, does not have notice of the adverse <br>claim, and obtains control. (2) If an adverse claim could not have been asserted against an entitlement holder under KRS 355.8-502, the adverse claim cannot be asserted against a person who <br>purchases a security entitlement, or an interest therein, from the entitlement holder. (3) In a case not covered by the priority rules in Article 9 of this chapter, a purchaser for value of a security entitlement, or an interest therein, who obtains control has <br>priority over a purchaser of a security entitlement, or an interest therein, who does <br>not obtain control. Except as otherwise provided in subsection (4) of this section, <br>purchasers who have control rank according to priority in time of: <br>(a) The purchaser's becoming the person for whom the securities account, in which the security entitlement is carried, is maintained, if the purchaser <br>obtained control under KRS 355.8-106(4)(a); (b) The securities intermediary's agreement to comply with the purchaser's entitlement orders with respect to security entitlements carried or to be carried <br>in the securities account in which the security entitlement is carried, if the <br>purchaser obtained control under KRS 355.8-106(4)(b); or (c) If the purchaser obtained control through another person under KRS 355.8- 106(4)(c), the time on which priority would be based under this subsection if <br>the other person were the secured party.
