MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
FRANCISCO A. BESOSA, District Judge.
Before the Court are the bankruptcy appeals of Civil Cases Nos. 12-1515 and 12-2026.1
I. BACKGROUND
A. Factual History
The Court draws the following relevant facts from the bankruptcy court’s order dated May 15, 2012, (Docket No. 1-4 at pp. 58-62):
On January 16, 2001, First Bank of Puerto Rico, Inc. (“First Bank”), Health Distillers International, Inc. (“HDI”), and International Home Products, Inc. (“IHP”) entered into a Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement granted IHP and HDI (collectively, “the debtors”)2 certain credit facilities in the aggregate principal amount of $22.5 million, comprised of: a revolving credit facility to IHP and HDI in the principal amount of $15 million (“Operating Line”); and a five (5) year Senior Secured Term Loan credit facility to IHP up to the principal amount of $7.5 million (“Term Loan”) (collectively, the “Loans”).
After various amendments, on December S, 2009, First Bank, IHP, and HDI subscribed an “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement” where First Bank granted the Debtors credit facilities in the aggregate amount of $88,289,099.64 (consisting of $26 million of the Operating Line and $12,289,099.64 of the Term Loan of IHP). The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement was authenticated pursuant to affidavit number 26,301 of Notary Public Heberto de Vizcarrondo-Armstrong (the “Credit Agreement”).
On January 16, 2001, First Bank and IHP executed a Security Agreement, authenticated before Notary Public F. Vazquez-Santoni, affidavit number 34,911, whereby IHP pledged and granted to First Bank, as collateral to secure all of the obligations under the Credit Agreement, a lien upon all:
[O]f its right, title and interest in, to and under the following property whether now owned by or owing to, or hereafter acquired by or arising in favor of Grant- or ... (all of which being hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Collateral”):
all equipment;
all goods;
all inventory;
all investment property;
all money, cash or cash equivalents; [155]*155to the extent not otherwise included, all proceeds and products of the foregoing and all accessions to, substitutions and replacements for, rents and profits of, each of the foregoing.
The Security Agreement further provided: Grantor also hereby authorizes Lender to file any such financing or continuation statements without the signature of Grantor to the extent permitted by applicable law. If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Collateral is or shall become evidenced by any Instrument, such Instrument, other than checks and notes received in the ordinary course of business, shall be duly endorsed in a manner satisfactory to Lender immediately upon Grantor’s receipt thereof.
On the same date that they executed the Security Agreement, First Bank and IHP also executed an Assignment of Rents agreement (the “Assignment of Rents”), authenticated before Notary Public F. Vazquez-Santoni, affidavit number 34,913, whereby IHP assigned and granted to First Bank, as collateral to secure all of the obligations under the Credit Agreement, its interest in all the rents receivable as described in the Agreement.
First Bank perfected its security interests by filing corresponding UCC-1 Financing Statements (the “2001 Financing Statements”). The original Financing Statements cover IHP’s inventory, merchandise, goods, other personal property, and their proceeds, which are held by or on behalf of IHP, as well as the rents assigned. The 2001 Financing Statements were initially filed before the Puerto Rico Commercial Transactions Registry (the “Registry”) on January 26, 2001. They lapsed ten (10) years after their filing — on January 26, 2011.
To perfect its security interest over the collateral covered by the 2001 Financing Statements, which had lapsed, First Bank filed another set of financing statements on July 19, 2011 (the “2011 Financing Statements”). The 2011 Financing Statements covered the same collateral as the original 2001 Financing Statements, but they lacked IHP’s signature. With the intention of terminating the 2011 Financing Statements, IHP filed two UCC-3 termination statements (the “Termination Statements”) with the Puerto Rico Commercial Transactions Registry on February 16, 2012. The Termination Statements do not have the signature of First Bank and were not authorized by it. On April 4, 2012, First Bank sent IHP, HDI, and the Guarantors a formal Notice of Default (the “Notice of Default”).
On April 10, 2012, six days after First Bank sent IHP the Notice of Default, IHP filed an “Urgent Motion for Order under 11 U.S.C. 105, 507(a)(4) and (5) Authorizing the Payment of Debtor’s Pre-Petition Employee Benefits and Priority Wages.” The bankruptcy court granted IHP’s motion for wages on April 26, 2012. Later that day, First Bank filed its Motion for Reconsideration, requesting the following remedies:
i. That the bankruptcy court prohibit IHP from using any of the cash that it has or receives, since it is the collateral of First Bank (the “Cash Collateral”);
ii. That the bankruptcy court order IHP to turn over to First Bank any present or future Cash Collateral in the possession, custody or control of IHP or any of its Insiders (as such term is defined in 11 U.S.C. § 101);
iii. That the bankruptcy court order IHP to segregate and account for all Cash Collateral received by or for the benefit of IHP since the filing of the petition;
[156]*156iv. That the bankruptcy court grant First Bank immediate access to the books and records of IHP, including all electronic records on any company computers, to make electronic copies, photocopies or abstracts of the business records of the debtor; and
v. Any other relief that the bankruptcy court deems necessary and just.
In response, IHP filed its petition on April 27, 2012; First Bank filed its reply on May 1, 2012; and the bankruptcy court issued an order on May 15, 2012 which “prospectively [granted] the Bank’s Motion for Reconsideration and determine[d] that the Bank has a valid security interest over [IHP’s] cash, assets and rents.” (Docket No. 1-4 at p. 1.)
During May and June 2012, the bankruptcy court held four hearings to consider IHP and HDI’s use of cash collateral. (See Docket No. 5-3 at p. 17.) At a June 18, 2012 hearing, the bankruptcy court continued allowing the use of cash collateral, and on June 22, 2012, IHP and First Bank filed a Joint Motion Informing Settlement with First Bank as to the Use of Cash Collateral.3 (Docket No. 5-3 at pp. 1-6.)
On August 3, 2012, First Bank filed a request for the immediate turnover of funds allegedly withheld by the Debtors. (See Docket No. 5-3 at pp. 8-15.) It argued that proceeds generated under pre-petition foreclosed consumer sales contracts belong to First Bank, and thus they do not constitute property of the bankruptcy estate. Id. IHP opposed First Bank’s motion on August 16, 2012, contending that it has already surrendered all receivables, whether they were “foreclosed” or not, to First Bank. (Docket No. 5-3 at p. 19.) First Bank replied on August 24, 2012, and the bankruptcy court granted First Bank’s motion on October 22, 2012. Its order merely directed the debtors to “turnover to [First Bank] any property foreclosed pre[-]petition by [First Bank] and which, consequently, is not property of the estate.” (Docket No. 5-3 at p. 22.) IHP appeals.
II. Scope of the Appeal
As referenced above, the cases on appeal are Case Nos. 12-1515 and 12-2026. In each case, IHP submitted two issues for appeal.
A. Case No. 12-1515
IHP submitted the following issues for appeal in Case No. 12-1515, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 8006:
[157]*1571. Whether the Bankruptcy Court’s Order of May 15, 2012, holding that the finance statements that were filed without the Debtor’s knowledge or signature and filed without any supporting documentation other than the expired 2001 finance statements on July 2011, submitted by First Bank to the Puerto Rico Department of State, gave rise to a valid security interest was in error.
2. Whether the Bankruptcy Court’s Order of May 15, 2012 committed reversible error when it substantially incorporated the draft order provided by First Bank that included facts and legal authority that were never presented before the Court despite timely opposition made by the Debtor.
(Civil No. 12-1515, Docket No. 3 at p. 1.) In the appellant’s brief, however, IHP voluntarily withdrew its designated second issue on appeal. (Civil No. 12-1515, Docket No. 22 at pp. 6-7 n30902960. 2.)
B. Case No. 12-2026
Also pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 8006, IHP submitted the following seemingly convoluted issues for appeal in Case No. 12-2026:
1. Whether the Bankruptcy [Court] erred when it ordered the turnover of property to a secured creditor because of an alleged pre-petition foreclosure when in the same case the Bankruptcy Court issued an Order on May 15, 2012 granting the same secured creditor a security interest over the same collateral only with prospective effect for a date that occurred after the petition and held hearings and issued orders regarding the use of cash collateral for the exact same allegedly foreclosed collateral allowing the Debtor’s use of the collateral after the petition date;
2. Whether the Bankruptcy Court erred when it determined that it has jurisdiction to confirm the legitimacy of a pre-petition foreclosure when at the time of the May 15, 2012 Order validating Firstbank’s security interest was pending appeal in case no.: 12-1515(JAF) and the issues raised in such appeal are the same issues raised here: whether the bank’s security interest is a valid and perfected security interest.
(Case No. 12-2026, Docket No. 1-3 at pp. 1-2.)
First Bank contends that the first issue is not appropriately before the Court, because IHP only raises it “for the first time here on appeal.” (Docket No. 12 at p. 5.) Because the prospective nature of the bankruptcy court’s May 15, 2012 ruling “was never before the [bankruptcy [c]ourt when it entered the October 22, 2012 [o]rder that [IHP is] now appealing, First Bank requests that the issue be stricken from the record. Id. at pp. 5-6 (citing B & T Masonry Constr. Co. Inc. v. Pub. Serv. Mut. Ins. Co., 382 F.3d 36, 40 (1st Cir. 2004)).
First Bank’s argument is meritless. Although the First Circuit Court of Appeals has indicated that “legal theories not raised squarely in the lower court cannot be broached for the first time on appeal,” that precedent is inapposite to this case because IHP’s first issue does not “assert a nascent theory that departs dramatically from what [the party] argued in the court below.” Cf. B & T Masonry, 382 F.3d at 39. IHP references the “prospective” nature of the May 15, 2012 ruling in order to dispute the bankruptcy court’s October 22, 2012 order, not as a “newly contrived theory” of liability that constitutes a “baldfaced switching of horses in mid-stream.” [158]*158See id. at 40. Furthermore, as a prior interlocutory order, the bankruptcy court’s May 15, 2012 ruling is independently reviewable on appeal.4 All prior interlocutory orders, opinions and non-final partial judgments are subject to review along with the appealable judgment. See Brandt v. Wand Partners, 242 F.3d 6, 15 (1st Cir. 2001) (“Where the district court has made interlocutory decisions before entering a final judgment, an appeal from the final judgment brings up the interlocutory decisions for review .... ”); see also Tringali v. Hathaway Mach., 796 F.2d 553, 559 (1st Cir.1986) (indicating that entry of a final, appealable order will enable an appellant to request review of earlier non-final decisions upon which the final decision rests). Accordingly, the Court addresses the bankruptcy court’s May 15, 2012 and October 22, 2012 orders in turn.
III. ANALYSIS
A. May 15, 2012 Order
The Court regards the bankruptcy court’s May 15, 2012 order as well-reasoned and strongly supported by legal authority. “[W]hen a lower court produces a comprehensive, well-reasoned decision, an appellate court should refrain from writing at length to no other end than to hear its own words resonate.” Lawton v. State Mut. Life Assur. Co. of Am., 101 F.3d 218, 220 (1st Cir.1996) (citations omitted); see also In re San Juan Dupont Plaza Hotel Fire Litig., 989 F.2d 36, 38 (1st Cir.1993) (“Where, as here, a trial court has produced a first-rate work product, a reviewing tribunal should hesitate to wax longiloquent simply to hear its own words resonate.”). Having read the bankruptcy record and the parties’ briefs with care, the Court affirms the bankruptcy court’s judgment for substantially the reasons elucidated in the bankruptcy opinion. See Lawton, 101 F.3d at 220.
1. Two-Step Analysis
The “critical issue” addressed by the bankruptcy court on May 15, 2012 was whether First Bank enjoys a valid and perfected security interest over IHP’s assets and rents. To resolve that issue, the bankruptcy court correctly engaged in a two-part analysis, (Docket No. 1-4 at pp. 62-67):
First, the bankruptcy court examined whether First Bank’s filing of the 2011 Financing Statements, even without IHP’s signature, is valid. The bankruptcy court correctly concluded in the affirmative, citing the Puerto Rico Commercial Transactions Act (“CTA”)5 to address the parameters of security agreements, including their general validity and “perfected” sta[159]*159tus. (Docket No. 1-4 at pp. 63-64) (citing P.R. Laws Ann. tit. 19 §§ 2103, 2051, 2152-53). Both parties agreed that (1) in 2001, IHP granted First Bank a security interest in all of its assets by means of the Security Agreement; and that (2) First Bank perfected its security interests by filing the corresponding 2001 Financing Statements. (Docket No. 5 at p. 10; Docket No. 12 at pp. 9-10); see also P.R. Laws Ann. tit. 19 § 2152 (“A financing statement is sufficient if it gives the names of the debtor and the secured party, is signed by the debtor, gives an address of the secured party from which information concerning the security interest may be obtained, gives a mailing address of the debtor[,] and contains a statement indicating the types, or describing the items, of collateral.”). Ten years later, on January 26, 2011, however, the effectiveness of the financing statement lapsed pursuant to Puerto Rico law because First Bank did not file a continuation statement. See P.R. Laws Ann. tit. 19 § 2153(2) (“The effectiveness of a filed financing statement lapses on the expiration of the ten (10)-year period unless a continuation statement is filed prior to the lapse”). On July 19, 2011, and without the signature of IHP, First Bank signed and filed the 2011 Financing Statements. Subsequently, IHP signed and filed the Termination Statements on February 16, 2012, without First Bank’s signature or authorization.
Pursuant to P.R. Laws Ann. tit. 19 § 2153 (“section 2153”), IHP’s theory that the lapsing of the financing statement destroyed not only the perfection, but also the general validity, of First Bank’s security interests6 is incorrect. Section 2153 provides that “[t]he effectiveness of a filed financing statement lapses on the expiration of the ten (10)-year period ... [and that] [u]pon lapse the security interest becomes unperfected....” The language of the statute simply does not support IHP’s contention that the lapsing of the financing statements also causes the security interests to lapse. To the contrary, the lapse of a financing statement does not invalidate the security interest. Supplies & Servs. v. Nacco Indus. (In re Supplies & Servs.), 461 B.R. 699, 707 (1st Cir. BAP 2011) (citing Frank v. James Talcott, Inc., 692 F.2d 734, 737 (11th Cir.1982) for the proposition that an “unperfected interest would still be enforceable as between the debtor and creditor, but it could lose priority against third party creditors”). This is because perfection of an interest, which relates to the interest of third parties in the collateral, is “entirely independent” from an interest’s validity. (In re Supplies & Servs.), 461 B.R. at 707. As the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel for the First Circuit has explained:
The attached security interest is valid as between the parties, has priority over a general creditor, but, unless perfected, is subject to the rights of many others acquiring interests in the property. On the other hand, to acquire rights valid against third parties, it is necessary that the security interest be perfected. A security agreement’s validity is based upon attachment and enforceability, but not perfection. While “attachment” relates to the creation and enforceability of a security interest between the parties to the transaction, “perfection” is an additional step which makes the security interest effective against third parties .... Perfection does not affect the [160]*160rights and obligations between a debtor and his secured creditor, but relates to rights among competing creditors or others with interests in the collateral. Thus, a security agreement can be valid between the parties without being perfected.
Id. Attachment of First Bank’s security interests occurred with the filing of the 2001 Finance Statements. See P.R. Laws Ann. tit. 19 § 2053 (“A security interest attaches when it becomes enforceable against the debtor with respect to the collateral. Attachment occurs as soon as all of the events specified in subsection (1) of this section have taken place.... ”). Because “perfection ... does not affect the validity of the security agreement between the debtor and the secured party,” (In re Supplies & Servs.), 461 B.R. at 707, the Debtors’ erroneous assumption that the lapsing of the 2001 Financing Statements invalidated First Bank’s security interests is fatal to their appeals in both Case No. 12-1515 and Case No. 12-2026.
The Debtors’ argument in Case No. 12-1515 that the 2011 Financing Statements do not meet the requirements of P.R. Laws Ann. tit. 19 § 2152 (“section 2152”) is also unavailing. Section 2152 provides a mechanism for creditors to re-perfect their security interests if a prior financing statement lapses: “(2) A financing statement which otherwise complies with subsection (1) of this section is sufficient when it is signed by the secured party instead of the debtor [if] it is filed to perfect a security interest in: ... (c) collateral as to which the filing has lapsed.... ” P.R. Laws Ann. tit. 19 § 2152. The Debtors argue that First Bank’s July 2011 Financing Statements fail to meet the requirements of section 2152(1) and, therefore, cannot be compliant with section 2152(2). (Civil No. 12-1515, Docket No. 22 at pp. 17-20.) To comply with section 2152(1), the 2011 Financing Statements must: (1) give the names of the debtors; (2) give the names of the secured party; (3) be signed by the debtor; (4) give an address of the secured party; (5) give a mailing address of the debtor; and (6) contain a statement indicating the types, or describing the items, of collateral. P.R. Laws Ann. tit. 19 § 2152(1). Upon review of the 2011 Financing Statements, the Court finds that all elements are met. First, the names of IHP and HDI are listed as debtors. (Docket No. 22-1 at pp. 15 & 22.) Second, First Bank is listed as the secured party. Id. Third, First Bank — the secured party — correctly signed the Financing Statement “instead of the debtor.”7 Id. Fourth, First Bank’s address is listed. Id. Fifth, both IHP and HDI’s addresses are provided. Id. Sixth, in the section stating “THIS FINANCING STATEMENT COVERS THE FOLLOWING TYPES OR ITEMS OF PROPERTY[,]” First Bank stated in the first Financing Statement, “See Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof.”8 [161]*161(Docket No. 22-1 at pp. 15.) In the second Financing Statement, First Bank stated, “Assignment of Rents arising from Lease Contracts over commercial properties located at 165 Quisqueya Avenue, Hato Rey, Puerto Rico, Lot 5 San Rafael Industrial Park, Ponce, Puerto Rico and at State Road 102, Km. 150.3, Mayagiiez, Puerto Rico [executed] before Notary Public Francisco M. Vazquez Santoni.” Id. at p. 22. Thus, the 2011 Financing Statements met all of section 2152(l)’s requirements.
Given that the 2011 Financing Statements fully complied with section 2152(1), and that the debtor’s signature is not required by section 2152(2)(c), the bankruptcy court correctly found that First Bank was expressly permitted by law to file the 2011 Financing Statements without IHP’s signature. The bankruptcy court also correctly held that First Bank’s security interests lost only their perfected status, not their validity, between the period of January and July 2011.
Second, the bankruptcy court analyzed whether the Termination Statements filed by IHP in February 2012 were valid as a matter of law. It properly concluded that they were not. Pursuant to P.R. Laws Ann. tit. 19 § 2154 (“section 2154”), a termination statement should be filed when there is “no outstanding secured obligation,” and the secured creditor must authorize a termination statement.9 In [162]*162this case, the Credit Agreement signed by the parties posed as “an outstanding secured obligation,” and First Bank, as “the secured party,” did not sign the termination statement or submit a separate written and signed statement of assignment. Thus, the bankruptcy court rightfully concluded that the document IHP filed in February 2012 failed to comply with section 2154’s requirements and is not a valid termination statement that extinguished First Bank’s security interests.
The Court also finds the case of Roswell Capital Partners LLC v. Alternative Constr. Techs., 2010 WL 3452378, 2010 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 90695 (S.D.N.Y. Sept. 1, 2010), upon which IHP relies, to be inapplicable. In Roswell, a competing lender argued that the filing of a termination statement under the Florida UCC, even without the endorsement of the other secured lender, rendered the corresponding financing statement ineffective. The Court subscribes to the reasoning, however, that Roswell’s analysis is misguided. See Official Comm. v. JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA (In re Motors Liquidation Co.), 486 B.R. 596, 632 n. 121, 641-46 (Bankr.S.D.N.Y.2013) (discussing at length why Roswell was “erroneously decided”); In re Negus-Sons, Inc., 460 B.R. 754, 757 n. 10 (8th Cir. BAP 2011) (“We are also hesitant to endorse the holding in [Roswell ], relied on by the Trustee, that a termination statement filed by a third party is effective regardless of whether it was authorized .... Roswell’s holding appears to be contrary to the plain language of the Uniform Commercial Code.”); William H. Henning & Fred H. Miller, 45 The Uniform Commercial Code Law Letter 1, 4 (2011) (criticizing Roswell as being contrary to the law). Moreover, unlike the Florida UCC that controlled in Roswell, Puerto Rico law explicitly requires the secured party’s authorization in order for a termination statement to be valid. P.R. Laws Ann. tit. 19 § 2154. Thus, Roswell is inapposite, and the bankruptcy court correctly declined to adopt the Roswell decision in its analysis. (See Docket No. 1-4 at pp. 65-66.)
Accordingly, because First Bank properly perfected its security interests with the 2011 Financing Statements, and IHP’s attempt to terminate the interest by filing the Termination Statements had no effect, the bankruptcy court’s May 15, 2012 order correctly concluded that First Bank was at liberty to exercise its rights as a secured creditor and proceed according to the documents and applicable law. (See Docket No. 1-4 at p. 67.)
2. The “Prospective” Effect
IHP takes special issue with the bankruptcy court’s use of the term “prospective” in its May 15, 2012 order. The bankruptcy court “prospectively [granted] the Bank’s [m]otion for [Reconsideration and determined] that the Bank has a valid security interest over [IHP’s] cash, assets and rents.” (Docket No. 1-4 at p. 1.) It further noted, “Since this order will have prospective effect, the Court is upholding its order of April 26, 2012, Dkt. 15, authorizing [IHP] to pay the salaries as requested in its motion of April 25, 2012, Dkt. 13.” Id. In the final paragraph of the order, the bankruptcy court again proclaimed the order’s “prospective” effect: “[A]s previously stated by the Court, this order shall have prospective effect starting on May 3, 2012. The Court is upholding its order of April 26, 2012, Dkt. 15, authorizing [IHP] to pay the salaries as requested in its motion of April 25, 2012, Dkt. 13.” Id.
[163]*163As gleaned from IHP’s submissions, IHP interprets the use of the term “prospective” to mean that the bankruptcy court granted First Bank a security interest in the pre-petition foreclosed collateral only beginning on May 3, 2012.10 {See Docket No. 5 at p. 23) (“[T]he Bankruptcy Court upheld First Bank’s security interest but only with “prospective” effect.... Accordingly, in the context of this case, First Bank could not have foreclosed on [IHP’s] property pre-petition. [IHP] contends that First Bank’s conduct from May 3, 2012 to the date of the filing of the Joint Stipulation on June 22, 2012 acknowledges this fact.”); Id. at p. 24 (“First Bank’s security interest against [IHP] is instead reliant on the May 3, 2012 [o]rder of the [bankruptcy [c]ourt that grants “prospective” effect to First Bank’s security interest from the date of the May 3, 2012 order.”); Id. at p. 21 (“[F]rom the date that the Department of State registered the Termination Statements, February 16, 2012, to the date that the Bankruptcy Court held that the statements were ineffective, May 3, 2012, First Bank did not have a valid and effective security interest. Since First Bank contends that its alleged foreclosure took place during this period[,] the foreclosure could not have been pursuant to an effective and valid security interest.”); (Docket No. 13 at p. 4) (“The [b]ankruptey [c]ourt ... found that First Bank had a valid lien against [IHP] but would enforce it11prospectively.”) (emphasis in original); Id. at p. 8 (“[IHP] contends that the cash collateral litigation and the cash collateral orders represent the implementation of the “prospective effect” of the [bankruptcy [c]ourt finding that First Bank had a valid security interest and not recognition of a pre-petition foreclosure of the asset.”); (Case No. 12-1515, Docket No. 29 at p. 5 n. 1) (“The Debtor notes that even the Order of the Bankruptcy Court acknowledges the tenuous nature of First Bank’s security interest by declaring the interest effective prospectively from May 3, 2012 and not retrospectively to the date of the July 2011 filing or to the date of the Bankruptcy Petition, April 19, 2012.”) (emphasis in original).
The Court finds no support in the record for IHP’s contention that the May 15, 2012 order’s “prospective” effect signifies that First Bank lacked a valid security interest at the time that it foreclosed on the collateral. In an opinion and order dated December 26, 2012, the bankruptcy court provided additional insight into the intended meaning of “prospective” as used in the May 15, 2012 order. {See Docket No. 10-2.) The bankruptcy court clarified that the “prospective” effect took place for a “limited reason” — “because the court [did not want to] set aside its previous Order dated April 26, 2012 authorizing the use of cash collateral based upon the necessity that the employees be paid in order that Debtors’ operations continue, and particularly if the grounds for requesting reconsideration of this Order [were] that payment was on account of unauthorized use of cash collateral.” Id. at p. 10. The term “prospective,” therefore, was not included to mean — as IHP contends — that First Bank’s security interest became valid and effective on May 15, 2012, the date of the bankruptcy court’s decision. Indeed, the bankruptcy court explicitly clarified that “the third argument based on [IHP’s] con[164]*164tentions that the reason the court granted prospective effect to its first Order is due to the time line of the alleged foreclosures (April 4, 2012) and the petition date (April 19, 2012) is unfounded.” (Docket No. 10-2 at p. 10.) Furthermore, “the court did not hold that First Bank had a valid security interest as of May 3, 2012 despite the fact that it filed the new financing statement on July 19, 2011[;] [T]his would be contrary to this court’s October 22, 2012 Order.” Id. As the bankruptcy court correctly determined, First Bank had a valid security interest well before May 2012— the interests became valid upon execution of the 2001 Financing Statements, and merely became perfected again with the filing of the 2011 Financing Statements. Accordingly, IHP’s argument that the bankruptcy court intended for its May 15, 2012 order to mark the date that First Bank’s security interest would take effect must fail. The Court must also reject IHP’s appeal that the bankruptcy court “erred when it determined that it has jurisdiction to confirm the legitimacy of a pre-petition foreclosure.... ”
B. October 22, 2012 Order
In First Bank’s motion requesting the immediate turnover of funds, it argued that approximately $1.2 million in proceeds generated under the pre-petition foreclosed consumer sales contracts of IHP (which were foreclosed as of April 4, 2012) and HDI (which were foreclosed as of April 23, 2012), belong to First Bank. (Docket No. 5-3 at pp. 8-15.) As First Bank’s property, the accounts receivable and any proceeds thereof do not constitute property of IHP’s bankruptcy estate. Id. IHP opposed First Bank’s motion by contending that First Bank “now take[s] the inconsistent and ludicrous position that, despite asserting a post-petition security interest over the Debtor’s property, First Bank satisfied its security interest pre-petition by ‘foreclosing’ on Debtor’s property.” (Docket No. 5-3 at p. 18.) It argues that IHP has already surrendered all receivables, whether they were “foreclosed” or not, to First Bank. Id. at p. 19. First Bank replied, however: (1) that when it foreclosed IHP’s and HDI’s consumer sales contracts in April 2012, it acted under a duly registered Security Agreement subscribed by the debtors and First Bank, and that the debtors’ default under the terms of the Loan Agreement prompted the pre-petition foreclosure, (Docket No. 1-9 at p. 9); (2) that the bank has always contended that the proceeds from the foreclosed accounts belong to it and not to the estates, id. at p. 10; and (3) that because the debtors incorrectly informed their clients not to make the payments to First Bank, diverted the foreclosed funds from the bank, and used the proceeds against the terms of the Loan Agreement with the bank,11 they are unlawfully in possession of funds that belong to First Bank. Id.
The bankruptcy court agreed with First Bank on October 22, 2012, ordering the debtors to “turnover to [First Bank] any property foreclosed pre[-]petition by [First Bank] and which, consequently, is not property of the estáte.” (Docket No. 5-3 at p. 22.) Although it did not issue a concurrent opinion or memorandum with its October 22, 2012 order, the bankruptcy court later shed light on its reasoning for granting First Bank’s motion:
[165]*165The October 22, 2012 Order’s holding is derived from the May 15, 2012 Order in which this court held that [First Bank] properly perfected its security interests when it filed the financing statements on July 19, 2011, pursuant to [P.R. Laws Ann. tit. 19 § 2152(2)(c) ] and, that [the Debtors’] attempt to terminate [First Bank]’s security interest by filing termination statements did not comply with [P.R. Laws Ann. tit. 19 § 2154]. Consequently, this court held in its October 22, 2012 Order, that [First Bank,] as a secured ereditor[,] was entitled to be turned over the property (meaning the proceeds generated from certain accounts receivables) which it foreclosed pre-petition, and thus are not property of the estate.
The court’s finding that [First Bank] is a secured creditor that properly perfected its security interests provided the basis for the October 22, 2012 Order. [First Bank], as a secured creditor, prior to IHP and HDI filing for bankruptcy on April 19, 2012 and on May 7, 2012[,] respectively, informed the Debtors through a formal notice of default (addressed to Mr. A Bert Foti) dated April 4, 2012 of the existing defaults and declared due and payable the entire unpaid principal amount of the loans, interest accrued and unpaid and all other amounts payable. Subsequently, [First Bank] sent a letter dated April 13, 2012 to the Debtors’ Comptroller regarding the legal basis for the assignment of the IHP and HDI accounts to [First Bank] which is based on the loan agreement. [First Bank], pursuant to the loan agreement, exercised its right to collect the payments due under the consumer sales contracts and all other remedies to which it is entitled by law. Due to Debtors’ defaults under the terms of the loan agreement, [First Bank] foreclosed pre-petition certain consumer sales contracts by informing Debtors’ clients pre-petition to send [First Bank] any payments due or that became due under the consumer sales contracts. [First Bank], on May 22, 2012, provided [the] Debtors’ attorney with the list of the clients it had notified of the assignment of IHP and HDI’s accounts. Thus, the court concluded that the payments generated from the consumer sales contracts which were foreclosed pre-petition had to be turned over to [First Bank] because the same were not property of the estate.
(Docket No. 10-2 at pp. 7-9) (internal citations omitted).
In light of the reasoning above, as well as the bankruptcy court’s reasoning in its May 15, 2012 order, IHP’s contention that it was “plain error” to have granted First Bank a turnover of proceeds from certain consumer sales contracts is unavailing. IHP’s submission is based on the assumption that First Bank’s security interests in the collateral took effect in May 2012 upon the bankruptcy court’s order. Because, as discussed in the previous section, that assumption is unfounded, the May 15, 2012 order recognizing First Bank’s security interests, and the October 22, 2012 order granting First Bank a turnover of proceeds, are not irreconcilable. Pursuant to the duly registered Security Agreement subscribed by IHP and First Bank, First Bank enjoyed a security interest in the pre-petition collateral beginning in 2001. It had the right to foreclose on IHP’s pre-petition accounts receivable when IHP defaulted, therefore, because it owned the proceeds IHP received from those foreclosed accounts after First Bank issued the Notice of Foreclosure.12 See In re: AA 10,000 Corp., Case No. 07-06601(ESL) at [166]*166p. 4 (Bankr.D.P.R.) (Dec. 11, 2007) (“When the Debtor received the notice of default ... it is unquestionable that [the secured creditor] was immediately authorized to exercise it[s] rights under the loan agreement, including the right to foreclose and exercise control over the collateral.”); Docket No. 1-4 at p. 31.13 Accordingly, on October 22, 2012, the bankruptcy court correctly granted First Bank a turnover of any amount IHP had received, but had failed to surrender, from the foreclosed accounts after the Notice of Foreclosure. See In re: AA 10,000 Corp., 07-06601 at pp. 8-9; Docket No. 1-4 at pp. 32-33 (holding that once a secured creditor effectuates a valid pre-petition foreclosure on property that includes accounts receivable, a debtor has no equity in either the accounts receivable or any proceeds gained from the accounts).
IV. CONCLUSION
For the reasons discussed above, the Court fully AFFIRMS the bankruptcy court’s findings in both, Case No. 12-1515 and Case No. 12-2026.
Judgment shall be entered accordingly in both cases.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
