(a) In the event of a default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any bonds issued under this chapter, any court having jurisdiction may appoint a receiver to take charge of all or any part of the electric system of the municipality.
(b) The receiver shall have the power to operate and maintain the electric system and to charge and collect rates, fees, and charges sufficient to provide for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the bonds, after providing for the payment of any costs of receivership and operating expenses of the electric system, and to apply the revenues derived from the electric system in conformity with this chapter and the ordinance or trust indenture authorizing or securing the bonds.
(c) When the default has been cured, the receivership shall be ended and the electric system shall be returned to the municipality.
(d) The relief afforded by this section shall be construed to be in addition and supplemental to the remedies that may be afforded the trustee for the bondholders and the bondholders in the ordinance or trust indenture authorizing or securing the bonds and shall be so granted and administered as to accord full recognition to priority rights of bondholders as the pledge of revenues from, and the mortgage lien on, the electric system as specified in and fixed by the ordinances or trust indentures authorizing or securing successive bond issues.
