an instrument is initially payable is determined by the intent of the person, whether or not
authorized, signing as, or in the name or behalf of, the issuer of the instrument. The instrument
is payable to the person intended by the signer even if that person is identified in the instrument
by a name or other identification that is not that of the intended person. If more than one
person signs in the name or behalf of the issuer of an instrument and all the signers do not

is not liable on the instrument. (2) Subject to subsection...
