Payment by sender to receiving bank
Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
(1) Payment of the sender's obligation under Section 70A-4a-402 to pay the receiving bank occurs
as follows:
(a) If the sender is a bank, payment occurs when the receiving bank receives final settlement of
the obligation through a Federal Reserve Bank or through a funds transfer system.
(b) If the sender is a bank and the sender:
(i) credited an account of the receiving bank with the sender; or
(ii) caused an account of the receiving bank in another bank to be credited, payment occurs
when the credit is withdrawn or, if not withdrawn, at midnight of the day on which the credit
is withdrawable and the receiving bank learns of that fact.

(c) If the receiving bank debits an account of the sender with the receiving bank, payment occurs
when the debit is made to the extent the debit is covered by a withdrawable credit balance in
the account.
(2) If the sender and receiving bank are members of a funds transfer system that nets obligations
multilaterally among participants, the receiving bank receives final settlement when settlement
is complete in accordance with the rules of the system. The obligation of the sender to pay the
amount of a payment order transmitted through the funds transfer system may be satisfied, to
the extent permitted by the rules of the system, by setting off and applying against the sender's
obligation the right of the sender to receive payment from the receiving bank of the amount
of any other payment order transmitted to the sender by the receiving bank through the funds
transfer system. The aggregate balance of obligations owed by each sender to each receiving
bank in the funds transfer system may be satisfied, to the extent permitted by the rules of the
system, by setting off and applying against that balance the aggregate balance of obligations
owed to the sender by other members of the system. The aggregate balance is determined
after the right of setoff stated in the second sentence of this subsection has been exercised.
(3) If two banks transmit payment orders to each other under an agreement that settlement of the
obligations of each bank to the other under Section 70A-4a-402 will be made at the end of the
day or other period, the total amount owed with respect to all orders transmitted by one bank
shall be set off against the total amount owed with respect to all orders transmitted by the other
bank. To the extent of the setoff each bank has made payment to the other.
(4) In any case not covered by Subsection (1), the time when payment of the sender's obligation
under Subsection 70A-4a-402(2) or (3) occurs is governed by applicable principles of law that
determine when an obligation is satisfied.
