7-3-204
Section 7-3-204 Indorsement. (a) "Indorsement" means a signature, other than that
of a signer as maker, drawer, or acceptor, that alone or accompanied by other words is made
on an instrument for the purpose of (i) negotiating the instrument, (ii) restricting payment
of the instrument, or (iii) incurring indorser's liability on the instrument, but regardless
of the intent of the signer, a signature and its accompanying words is an indorsement unless
the accompanying words, terms of the instrument, place of the signature, or other circumstances
unambiguously indicate that the signature was made for a purpose other than indorsement. For
the purpose of determining whether a signature is made on an instrument, a paper affixed to
the instrument is a part of the instrument. (b) "Indorser" means a person who makes
an indorsement. (c) For the purpose of determining whether the transferee of an instrument
is a holder, an indorsement that transfers a security interest in the instrument is...

7-3-205
Section 7-3-205 Special indorsement; blank indorsement; anomalous indorsement. (a) If an indorsement
is made by the holder of an instrument, whether payable to an identified person or payable
to bearer, and the indorsement identifies a person to whom it makes the instrument payable,
it is a "special indorsement." When specially indorsed, an instrument becomes payable
to the identified person and may be negotiated only by the indorsement of that person. The
principles stated in Section 7-3-110 apply to special indorsements. (b) If an indorsement
is made by the holder of an instrument and it is not a special indorsement, it is a "blank
indorsement." When indorsed in blank, an instrument becomes payable to bearer and may
be negotiated by transfer of possession alone until specially indorsed. (c) The holder may
convert a blank indorsement that consists only of a signature into a special indorsement by
writing, above the signature of the indorser, words identifying the person to whom the...

7-3-206
Section 7-3-206 Restrictive indorsement. (a) An indorsement limiting payment to a particular
person or otherwise prohibiting further transfer or negotiation of the instrument is not effective
to prevent further transfer or negotiation of the instrument. (b) An indorsement stating a
condition to the right of the indorsee to receive payment does not affect the right of the
indorsee to enforce the instrument. A person paying the instrument or taking it for value
or collection may disregard the condition, and the rights and liabilities of that person are
not affected by whether the condition has been fulfilled. (c) If an instrument bears an indorsement
(i) described in Section 7-4-201(b), or (ii) in blank or to a particular bank using the words
"for deposit," "for collection," or other words indicating a purpose of
having the instrument collected by a bank for the indorser or for a particular account, the
following rules apply: (1) A person, other than a bank, who purchases the instrument...

7-3-419
Section 7-3-419 Instruments signed for accommodation. (a) If an instrument is issued for value
given for the benefit of a party to the instrument ("accommodated party") and another
party to the instrument ("accommodation party") signs the instrument for the purpose
of incurring liability on the instrument without being a direct beneficiary of the value given
for the instrument, the instrument is signed by the accommodation party "for accommodation."
(b) An accommodation party may sign the instrument as maker, drawer, acceptor, or indorser
and, subject to subsection (d), is obliged to pay the instrument in the capacity in which
the accommodation party signs. The obligation of an accommodation party may be enforced notwithstanding
any statute of frauds and whether or not the accommodation party receives consideration for

7-3-110
Section 7-3-110 Identification of person to whom instrument is payable. (a) The person to whom
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
intend the same person as payee, the instrument is payable to any person intended by one or
more of the signers. (b) If the signature of the issuer of an instrument is made by automated
means, such as a check-writing machine, the payee of the instrument is determined by the intent
of the person who supplied the name or identification of the payee, whether or not authorized
to do so. (c) A person to whom an instrument is...
