If a check or other bill of exchange is drawn
by a fiduciary as such or in the name of his or her principal by a fiduciary
empowered to draw such instrument in the name of the principal, payable to the
fiduciary personally, or payable to a third person and transferred by the third
person to the fiduciary, and is thereafter transferred by the fiduciary,
whether in payment of a personal debt of the fiduciary or otherwise, the
transferee is not bound to inquire whether the fiduciary is committing a breach
of his or her obligation as fiduciary in transferring the instrument, and is
not chargeable with notice that the fiduciary is committing a breach of his or
her obligation as fiduciary unless the transferee takes the instrument with
actual knowledge of such breach or with knowledge of such facts that this
action in taking the instrument amounts to bad faith.
