Wrongful Registration.
(a)  Except as otherwise provided in Section 8-406 of this
title, an issuer is liable for wrongful registration of transfer if
the issuer has registered a transfer of a security to a person not
entitled to it, and the transfer was registered:
(1) pursuant to an ineffective indorsement or instruction;
(2) after a demand that the issuer not register transfer
became effective under subsection (a) of Section 8-403
of this title and the issuer did not comply with
subsection (b) of Section 8-403 of this title;
(3) after the issuer had been served with an injunction,
restraining order, or other legal process enjoining it
from registering the transfer, issued by a court of
competent jurisdiction, and the issuer had a
reasonable opportunity to act on the injunction,
restraining order, or other legal process; or
(4) by an issuer acting in collusion with the wrongdoer.
(b)  An issuer that is liable for wrongful registration of
transfer under subsection (a) of this section on demand shall
provide the person entitled to the security with a like certificated
or uncertificated security, and any payments or distributions that
the person did not receive as a result of the wrongful registration.
If an overissue would result, the issuer's liability to provide the
person with a like security is governed by Section 8-210 of this
title.
(c)  Except as otherwise provided in subsection (a) of this
section or in a law relating to the collection of taxes, an issuer
is not liable to an owner or other person suffering loss as a result
of the registration of a transfer of a security if registration was
made pursuant to an effective indorsement or instruction.
