2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8115 - Securities intermediary and others not liable to adverse claimant.

A securities intermediary that has transferred a financial asset pursuant to an effective entitlement order, or a broker or other agent or bailee that has dealt with a financial asset at the direction of his or her customer or principal, is not liable to a person having an adverse claim to the financial asset, unless he or she:  1. Took the action after he or she had been served with an injunction, restraining order or other legal process enjoining him or her from doing so, issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, and had a reasonable opportunity to act on the injunction, restraining order or other legal process;  2. Acted in collusion with the wrongdoer in violating the rights of the adverse claimant; or  3. In the case of a security certificate that had been stolen, acted with notice of the adverse claim.

A securities intermediary that receives a financial asset and establishes a security entitlement to the financial asset in favor of an entitlement holder is a purchaser for value of the financial asset.

NV Rev Stat § 104.8201 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8201 - "Issuer."

  1. With respect to an obligation on or a defense to a security, an "issuer" includes a person who:  (a) Places or authorizes the placing of his or her name on a security certificate, other than as authenticating trustee, registrar, transfer agent or the like, to evidence a share, participation or other interest in his or her property or in an enterprise, or to evidence his or her duty to perform an obligation represented by the certificate;  (b) Creates a share, participation or other interest in his or her property or in an enterprise, or undertakes an obligation, that is an uncertificated security;  (c) Directly or indirectly creates a fractional interest in his or her rights or property, if the fractional interest is represented by a security certificate; or  (d) Becomes responsible for, or in place of, any other person described as an issuer in this section.  2. With respect to an obligation on or defense to a security, a guarantor is an issuer to the extent of his or her guaranty, whether or not the guarantor’s obligation is noted on a security certificate.  3. With respect to registration of transfer, "issuer" means a person on whose behalf transfer books are maintained.  (Added to NRS by 1965, 878; A 1985, 90; 1997, 391)
NV Rev Stat § 104.8202 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8202 - Issuer’s responsibility and defenses; notice of defect or defense.

  1. Even against a purchaser for value and without notice, the terms of a certificated security include the terms stated on the certificate and the terms made part of the security by reference on the certificate to another instrument, indenture, or document or to a constitution, statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, order or the like, to the extent the terms referred to do not conflict with terms stated on the certificate. A reference under this subsection does not of itself charge a purchaser for value with notice of a defect going to the validity of the security, even if the certificate expressly states that a person accepting it admits notice. The terms of an uncertificated security include those stated in any instrument, indenture or document, or in a constitution, statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, order or the like, pursuant to which the security was issued.  2. The following rules apply if an issuer asserts that a security is not valid:  (a) A security other than one issued by a government or governmental subdivision, agency or instrumentality, even though issued with a defect going to its validity, is valid in the hands of a purchaser for value and without notice of the particular defect unless the defect involves a violation of a constitutional provision. In that case the security is valid in the hands of a purchaser for value and without notice of the defect other than one who takes by original issue.  (b) Paragraph (a) applies to an issuer that is a government or governmental subdivision, agency or instrumentality only if there has been substantial compliance with the legal requirements governing the issue or the issuer has received a substantial consideration for the issue as a whole or for the particular security and a stated purpose of the issue is one for which the issuer has power to borrow money or issue the security.  3. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 104.8205, lack of genuineness of a certificated security is a complete defense even against a purchaser for value and without notice.  4. All other defenses of the issuer of a security, including nondelivery and conditional delivery of a certificated security, are ineffective against a purchaser for value who has taken the certificated security without notice of the particular defense.  5. This section does not affect the right of a party to cancel a contract for a security "when, as and if issued" or "when distributed" in the event of a material change in the character of the security that is the subject of the contract or in the plan or arrangement pursuant to which the security is to be issued or distributed.  6. If a security is held by a securities intermediary against whom an entitlement holder has a security entitlement with respect to the security, the issuer may not assert any defense that it could not assert if the entitlement holder held the security directly.  (Added to NRS by 1965, 879; A 1985, 90; 1997, 392)
NV Rev Stat § 104.8203 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8203 - Staleness as notice of defect or defense.

After an act or event, other than a call that has been revoked, creating a right to immediate performance of the principal obligation represented by a certificated security or setting a date on or after which the security is to be presented or surrendered for redemption or exchange, a purchaser is charged with notice of any defect in its issue or defense of the issuer if the act or event:  1. Requires the payment of money, the delivery of a certificated security, the registration of transfer of an uncertificated security, or any of them on presentation or surrender of the security certificate, the money or security is available on the date set for payment or exchange, and the purchaser takes the security more than 1 year after that date; or  2. Is not covered by subsection 1 and the purchaser takes the security more than 2 years after the date set for surrender or presentation or the date on which performance became due.  (Added to NRS by 1965, 879; A 1985, 92; 1997, 393)
NV Rev Stat § 104.8204 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8204 - Effect of issuer’s restriction on transfer.

A restriction on transfer of a security imposed by the issuer, even if otherwise lawful, is ineffective against any person without actual knowledge of the restriction unless:  1. The security is certificated and the restriction is noted conspicuously on the security certificate; or  2. The security is uncertificated and the registered owner has been notified of the restriction.  (Added to NRS by 1965, 880; A 1985, 92; 1997, 393)
NV Rev Stat § 104.8205 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8205 - Effect of unauthorized signature on security certificate.

An unauthorized signature placed on a security certificate before or in the course of issue is ineffective, but the signature is effective in favor of a purchaser for value of the certificated security if the purchaser is without notice of the lack of authority and the signing has been done by:  1. An authenticating trustee, registrar, transfer agent or other person entrusted by the issuer with the signing of the security certificate or of similar security certificates, or the immediate preparation for signing of any of them; or  2. An employee of the issuer, or of any of the persons listed in subsection 1, entrusted with responsible handling of the security certificate.  (Added to NRS by 1965, 880; A 1985, 92; 1997, 393)
NV Rev Stat § 104.8206 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8206 - Completion or alteration of security certificate.

  1. If a security certificate contains the signatures necessary to its issue or transfer but is incomplete in any other respect:  (a) Any person may complete it by filling in the blanks as authorized; and  (b) Even though the blanks are incorrectly filled in, the security certificate as completed is enforceable by a purchaser who took it for value and without notice of the incorrectness.  2. A complete security certificate that has been improperly altered, even though fraudulently, remains enforceable, but only according to its original terms.  (Added to NRS by 1965, 880; A 1985, 93; 1997, 394; 1999, 403)

  1. Before the presentment for registration of transfer of a certificated security in registered form or of an instruction requesting transfer of an uncertificated security, the issuer or indenture trustee may treat the registered owner as the person exclusively entitled to vote, receive notifications and otherwise exercise all the rights and powers of an owner.  2. This article does not affect the liability of the registered owner of a security for calls, assessments or the like.  (Added to NRS by 1965, 880; A 1985, 93; 1997, 394)
NV Rev Stat § 104.8208 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8208 - Effect of signature of authenticating trustee, registrar or transfer agent.

  1. A person signing a security certificate as authenticating trustee, registrar, transfer agent or the like warrants to a purchaser for value of the certificated security, if the purchaser is without notice of a particular defect, that:  (a) The certificate is genuine;  (b) His or her own participation in the issue or registration of the transfer, pledge or release of the security is within his or her capacity and within the scope of the authority received from the issuer; and  (c) He or she has reasonable grounds to believe that the certificated security is in the form and within the amount the issuer is authorized to issue.  2. Unless otherwise agreed, a person signing under subsection 1 does not assume responsibility for the validity of the security in other respects.  (Added to NRS by 1965, 880; A 1985, 94; 1997, 395)
NV Rev Stat § 104.8209 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8209 - Issuer’s lien.

A lien in favor of an issuer upon a certificated security is valid against a purchaser only if the right of the issuer to the lien is noted conspicuously on the security certificate.  (Added to NRS by 1965, 877; A 1985, 88; 1997, 388)
NV Rev Stat § 104.8210 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8210 - Overissue.

  1. As used in this section, "overissue" means the issue of securities in excess of the amount the issuer has corporate power to issue, but an overissue does not occur if appropriate action has cured the overissue.  2. Except as otherwise provided in subsections 3 and 4, the provisions of this article which validate a security or compel its issue or reissue do not apply to the extent that validation, issue or reissue would result in overissue.  3. If an identical security not constituting an overissue is reasonably available for purchase, a person entitled to issue or validation may compel the issuer to purchase the security and deliver it if certificated or register its transfer if uncertificated, against surrender of any security certificate he or she holds.  4. If a security is not reasonably available for purchase, a person entitled to issue or validation may recover from the issuer the price the person or the last purchaser for value paid for it with interest from the date of his or her demand.  (Added to NRS by 1965, 877; A 1985, 88; 1997, 389)
NV Rev Stat § 104.8301 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8301 - Delivery.

  1. Delivery of a certificated security to a purchaser occurs when:  (a) The purchaser acquires possession of the security certificate;  (b) Another person, other than a securities intermediary, acquires possession of the security certificate on behalf of the purchaser or, having previously acquired possession of the certificate, acknowledges that it holds for the purchaser; or  (c) A securities intermediary acting on behalf of the purchaser acquires possession of the security certificate, only if the certificate is in registered form and is registered in the name of the purchaser, payable to the order of the purchaser, or specially endorsed to the purchaser by an effective endorsement and has not been endorsed to the securities intermediary or in blank.  2. Delivery of an uncertificated security to a purchaser occurs when:  (a) The issuer registers the purchaser as the registered owner, upon original issue or registration of transfer; or  (b) Another person, other than a securities intermediary, becomes the registered owner of the uncertificated security on behalf of the purchaser or, having previously become the registered owner, acknowledges that it holds for the purchaser.

NV Rev Stat § 104.8302 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8302 - Rights of purchaser.

  1. Except as otherwise provided in subsections 2 and 3, a purchaser of a certificated or uncertificated security acquires all rights in the security that the transferor had or had power to transfer.  2. A purchaser of a limited interest acquires rights only to the extent of the interest purchased.  3. A purchaser of a certificated security who as a previous holder had notice of an adverse claim does not improve its position by taking from a protected purchaser.  (Added to NRS by 1997, 364; A 1999, 379)
NV Rev Stat § 104.8303 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8303 - Protected purchaser.

  1. "Protected purchaser" means a purchaser of a certificated or uncertificated security, or of an interest therein, who:  (a) Gives value;  (b) Does not have notice of any adverse claim to the security; and  (c) Obtains control of the certificated or uncertificated security.  2. In addition to acquiring the rights of a purchaser, a protected purchaser also acquires its interest in the security free of any adverse claim.  (Added to NRS by 1997, 364)
NV Rev Stat § 104.8304 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8304 - Endorsement.

  1. An endorsement may be in blank or special. An endorsement in blank includes an endorsement to bearer. A special endorsement specifies to whom a security is to be transferred or who has power to transfer it. A holder may convert a blank endorsement to a special endorsement.  2. An endorsement purporting to be only of part of a security certificate representing units intended by the issuer to be separately transferable is effective to the extent of the endorsement.  3. An endorsement, whether special or in blank, does not constitute a transfer until delivery of the certificate on which it appears or, if the endorsement is on a separate document, until delivery of both the document and the certificate.  4. If a security certificate in registered form has been delivered to a purchaser without a necessary endorsement, the purchaser may become a protected purchaser only when the endorsement is supplied. However, against a transferor, a transfer is complete upon delivery and the purchaser has a specifically enforceable right to have any necessary endorsement supplied.  5. An endorsement of a security certificate in bearer form may give notice of an adverse claim to the certificate, but it does not otherwise affect a right to registration that the holder possesses.  6. Unless otherwise agreed, a person making an endorsement assumes only the obligations provided in NRS 104.8108 and not an obligation that the security will be honored by the issuer.  (Added to NRS by 1997, 365)
NV Rev Stat § 104.8305 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8305 - Instruction.

  1. If an instruction has been originated by an appropriate person but is incomplete in any other respect, any person may complete it as authorized and the issuer may rely on it as completed, even though it has been completed incorrectly.  2. Unless otherwise agreed, a person initiating an instruction assumes only the obligations imposed by NRS 104.8108 and not an obligation that the security will be honored by the issuer.  (Added to NRS by 1997, 365)
NV Rev Stat § 104.8306 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8306 - Effect of guaranteeing signature, endorsement or instruction.

  1. A person who guarantees a signature of an endorser of a security certificate warrants that at the time of signing:  (a) The signature was genuine;  (b) The signer was an appropriate person to endorse, or if the signature is by an agent, the agent had actual authority to act on behalf of the appropriate person; and  (c) The signer had legal capacity to sign.  2. A person who guarantees a signature of the originator of an instruction warrants that at the time of signing:  (a) The signature was genuine;  (b) The signer was an appropriate person to originate the instruction, or if the signature is by an agent, the agent had actual authority to act on behalf of the appropriate person, if the person specified in the instruction as the registered owner was, in fact, the registered owner, as to which fact the signature guarantor does not make a warranty; and  (c) The signer had legal capacity to sign.  3. A person who specially guarantees the signature of the originator of an instruction makes the warranties of a guarantor under subsection 2 and also warrants that at the time the instruction is presented to the issuer:  (a) The person specified in the instruction as the registered owner of the uncertificated security will be the registered owner; and  (b) The transfer of the uncertificated security requested in the instruction will be registered by the issuer free from all liens, security interests, restrictions and claims other than those specified in the instruction.  4. A guarantor under subsections 1 and 2 or a special guarantor under subsection 3 does not otherwise warrant the rightfulness of the transfer.  5. A person who guarantees an endorsement of a security certificate makes the warranties of a guarantor under subsection 1 and also warrants the rightfulness of the transfer in all respects.  6. A person who guarantees an instruction requesting the transfer of an uncertificated security makes the warranties of a special guarantor under subsection 3 and also warrants the rightfulness of the transfer in all respects.  7. An issuer may not require a special guaranty of signature, a guaranty of endorsement or a guaranty of instruction as a condition to registration of transfer.  8. The warranties under this section are made to a person taking or dealing with the security in reliance on the guaranty, and the guarantor is liable to the person for loss resulting from their breach. An endorser or originator of an instruction whose signature, endorsement or instruction has been guaranteed is liable to a guarantor for any loss suffered by the guarantor as a result of a breach of the warranties of the guarantor.

2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 104 - Uniform Commercial Code — Original Articles|NRS 104.8307 - Purchaser’s right to requisites for registration of transfer.

Unless otherwise agreed, the transferor of a security on due demand shall supply the purchaser with proof of authority to transfer or with any other requisite necessary to obtain registration of the transfer of the security, but if the transfer is not for value, a transferor need not comply unless the purchaser pays the necessary expenses. If the transferor fails within a reasonable time to comply with the demand, the purchaser may reject or rescind the transfer.  (Added to NRS by 1965, 885; A 1985, 105; 1997, 397)

  1. If a certificated security in registered form is presented to an issuer with a request to register transfer or an instruction is presented to an issuer with a request to register transfer of an uncertificated security, the issuer shall register the transfer, pledge or release as requested if:  (a) Under the terms of the security, the person seeking registration of transfer is eligible to have the security registered in his or her name;  (b) The endorsement or instruction is made by the appropriate person or by an agent who has actual authority to act on behalf of the appropriate person;  (c) Reasonable assurance is given that the endorsement or instruction is genuine and authorized;  (d) Any applicable law relating to the collection of taxes has been complied with;  (e) The transfer does not violate any restriction on transfer imposed by the issuer in accordance with NRS 104.8204;  (f) A demand that the issuer not register transfer has not become effective under NRS 104.8403, or the issuer has complied with subsection 2 of that section but no legal process or indemnity bond is obtained as provided in subsection 4 of that section; and  (g) The transfer is in fact rightful or is to a protected purchaser.  2. If an issuer is under a duty to register a transfer of a security, the issuer is liable to the person presenting a certificated security or an instruction for registration or his or her principal for loss resulting from unreasonable delay in registration or failure or refusal to register the transfer.
