REFUND OF PAYMENT AND DUTY OF CUSTOMER TO REPORT WITH RESPECT TO
UNAUTHORIZED PAYMENT ORDER
(a)  If a receiving bank accepts a payment order issued in the
name of its customer as sender which is (i) not authorized and not
effective as the order of the customer under Section 4A-202 of this
title, or (ii) not enforceable, in whole or in part, against the
customer under Section 4A-203 of this title, the bank shall refund
any payment of the payment order received from the customer to the
extent the bank is not entitled to enforce payment and shall pay
interest on the refundable amount calculated from the date the bank
received payment to the date of the refund.  However, the customer
is not entitled to interest from the bank on the amount to be

refunded if the customer fails to exercise ordinary care to
determine that the order was not authorized by the customer and to
notify the bank of the relevant facts within a reasonable time not
exceeding ninety (90) days after the date the customer received
notification from the bank that the order was accepted or that the
customer's account was debited with respect to the order.  The bank
is not entitled to any recovery from the customer on account of a
failure by the customer to give notification as stated in this
section.
(b)  Reasonable time under subsection (a) of this section may be
fixed by agreement as stated in subsection (b) of Section 15 of this
act, but the obligation of a receiving bank to refund payment as
stated in subsection (a) of this section may not otherwise be varied
by agreement.
