Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. Unless
an account debtor has made an enforceable agreement not to assert defenses or
claims, and subject to subsections 2 to 5, inclusive, the rights of an assignee
are subject to:
(a) All
terms of the agreement between the account debtor and assignor and any defense
or claim in recoupment arising from the transaction that gave rise to the
contract; and
(b) Any
other defense or claim of the account debtor against the assignor which accrues
before the account debtor receives a notification of the assignment signed by
the assignor or the assignee.
2. Subject
to subsection 3 and except as otherwise provided in subsection 4, the claim of
an account debtor against an assignor may be asserted against an assignee under
subsection 1 only to reduce the amount the account debtor owes.
3. This
section is subject to law other than this article which establishes a different
rule for an account debtor who is a natural person and who incurred the
obligation primarily for personal, family or household purposes.
4. In
a consumer transaction, if a record evidences the account debtors obligation,
law other than this article requires that the record include a statement to the
effect that the account debtors recovery against an assignee with respect to
claims and defenses against the assignor may not exceed amounts paid by the
account debtor under the record, and the record does not include such a
statement, the extent to which a claim of an account debtor against the
assignor may be asserted against an assignee is determined as if the record
included such a statement.
5. This section does not apply to an
assignment of a health-care-insurance receivable.
