2021 Iowa Code|Title XIII - COMMERCE|Chapter 554 - UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE|Section 554.2603 - Merchant buyer’s duties as to rightfully rejected goods.

554.2603 Merchant buyer’s duties as to rightfully rejected goods.   1. Subject to any security interest in the buyer (section 554.2711, subsection 3), when the seller has no agent or place of business at the market of rejection a merchant buyer is under a duty after rejection of goods in the merchant buyer’s possession or control to follow any reasonable instructions received from the seller with respect to the goods and in the absence of such instructions to make reasonable efforts to sell them for the seller’s account if they are perishable or threaten to decline in value speedily. Instructions are not reasonable if on demand indemnity for expenses is not forthcoming.   2. When the buyer sells goods under subsection 1, that buyer is entitled to reimbursement from the seller or out of the proceeds for reasonable expenses of caring for and selling them, and if the expenses include no selling commission then to such commission as is usual in the trade or if there is none to a reasonable sum not exceeding ten percent on the gross proceeds.   3. In complying with this section the buyer is held only to good faith and good faith conduct hereunder is neither acceptance nor conversion nor the basis of an action for damages.

554.2604 Buyer’s options as to salvage of rightfully rejected goods.   Subject to the provisions of section 554.2603 on perishables if the seller gives no instructions within a reasonable time after notification of rejection the buyer may store the rejected goods for the seller’s account or reship them to the seller or resell them for the seller’s account with reimbursement as provided in section 554.2603. Such action is not acceptance or conversion.  [C66, 71, 73, 75, 77, 79, 81, §554.2604]  2008 Acts, ch 1032, §70  Referred to in §554.2602

2021 Iowa Code|Title XIII - COMMERCE|Chapter 554 - UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE|Section 554.2605 - Waiver of buyer’s objections by failure to particularize.

554.2605 Waiver of buyer’s objections by failure to particularize.   1. The buyer’s failure to state in connection with rejection a particular defect which is ascertainable by reasonable inspection precludes the buyer from relying on the unstated defect to justify rejection or to establish breach:   a. where the seller could have cured it if stated seasonably; or   b. between merchants when the seller has after rejection made a request in writing for a full and final written statement of all defects on which the buyer proposes to rely.   2. Payment against documents made without reservation of rights precludes recovery of the payment for defects apparent in the documents.

2021 Iowa Code|Title XIII - COMMERCE|Chapter 554 - UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE|Section 554.2606 - What constitutes acceptance of goods.

554.2606 What constitutes acceptance of goods.   1. Acceptance of goods occurs when the buyer   a. after a reasonable opportunity to inspect the goods signifies to the seller that the goods are conforming or that the buyer will take or retain them in spite of their nonconformity; or   b. fails to make an effective rejection (section 554.2602, subsection 1), but such acceptance does not occur until the buyer has had a reasonable opportunity to inspect them; or   c. does any act inconsistent with the seller’s ownership; but if such act is wrongful as against the seller it is an acceptance only if ratified by the seller.   2. Acceptance of a part of any commercial unit is acceptance of that entire unit.  [C24, 27, 31, 35, 39, §9977; C46, 50, 54, 58, 62, §554.49; C66, 71, 73, 75, 77, 79, 81, §554.2606]  2015 Acts, ch 29, §94  Referred to in §554.2103, 554.2201

2021 Iowa Code|Title XIII - COMMERCE|Chapter 554 - UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE|Section 554.2607 - Effect of acceptance — notice of breach — burden of establishing breach after acceptance — notice of claim or litigation to person answerable over.

554.2607 Effect of acceptance — notice of breach — burden of establishing breach after acceptance — notice of claim or litigation to person answerable over.   1. The buyer must pay at the contract rate for any goods accepted.   2. Acceptance of goods by the buyer precludes rejection of the goods accepted and if made with knowledge of a nonconformity cannot be revoked because of it unless the acceptance was on the reasonable assumption that the nonconformity would be seasonably cured but acceptance does not of itself impair any other remedy provided by this Article for nonconformity.   3. Where a tender has been accepted.   a. the buyer must within a reasonable time after the buyer discovers or should have discovered any breach notify the seller of breach or be barred from any remedy; and   b. if the claim is one for infringement or the like (section 554.2312, subsection 3) and the buyer is sued as a result of such a breach the buyer must so notify the seller within a reasonable time after the buyer receives notice of the litigation or be barred from any remedy over for liability established by the litigation.   4. The burden is on the buyer to establish any breach with respect to the goods accepted.   5. Where the buyer is sued for breach of a warranty or other obligation for which the buyer’s seller is answerable over   a. the buyer may give the buyer’s seller written notice of the litigation. If the notice states that the seller may come in and defend and that if the seller does not do so the seller will be bound in any action against the seller by the seller’s buyer by any determination of fact common to the two litigations, then unless the seller after seasonable receipt of the notice does come in and defend the seller is so bound.   b. if the claim is one for infringement or the like (section 554.2312, subsection 3) the original seller may demand in writing that the seller’s buyer turn over to the seller control of the litigation including settlement or else be barred from any remedy over and if the seller also agrees to bear all expense and to satisfy any adverse judgment, then unless the buyer after seasonable receipt of the demand does turn over control the buyer is so barred.   6. The provisions of subsections 3, 4 and 5 apply to any obligation of a buyer to hold the seller harmless against infringement or the like (section 554.2312, subsection 3).

554.2608 Revocation of acceptance in whole or in part.   1. The buyer may revoke the buyer’s acceptance of a lot or commercial unit whose nonconformity substantially impairs its value to the buyer if the buyer has accepted it   a. on the reasonable assumption that its nonconformity would be cured and it has not been seasonably cured; or   b. without discovery of such nonconformity if the buyer’s acceptance was reasonably induced either by the difficulty of discovery before acceptance or by the seller’s assurances.   2. Revocation of acceptance must occur within a reasonable time after the buyer discovers or should have discovered the ground for it and before any substantial change in condition of the goods which is not caused by their own defects. It is not effective until the buyer notifies the seller of it.   3. A buyer who so revokes has the same rights and duties with regard to the goods involved as if the buyer had rejected them.

554.2609 Right to adequate assurance of performance.   1. A contract for sale imposes an obligation on each party that the other’s expectation of receiving due performance will not be impaired. When reasonable grounds for insecurity arise with respect to the performance of either party the other may in writing demand adequate assurance of due performance and until that party receives such assurance may if commercially reasonable suspend any performance for which that party has not already received the agreed return.   2. Between merchants the reasonableness of grounds for insecurity and the adequacy of any assurance offered shall be determined according to commercial standards.   3. Acceptance of any improper delivery or payment does not prejudice the aggrieved party’s right to demand adequate assurance of future performance.   4. After receipt of a justified demand failure to provide within a reasonable time not exceeding thirty days such assurance of due performance as is adequate under the circumstances of the particular case is a repudiation of the contract.  [C24, 27, 31, 35, 39, §9982 – 9984, 9992; C46, 50, 54, 58, 62, §554.54 – 554.56, 554.64; C66, 71, 73, 75, 77, 79, 81, §554.2609]  Referred to in §554.2210, 554.2611

554.2610 Anticipatory repudiation.   When either party repudiates the contract with respect to a performance not yet due the loss of which will substantially impair the value of the contract to the other, the aggrieved party may   1. for a commercially reasonable time await performance by the repudiating party; or   2. resort to any remedy for breach (section 554.2703 or 554.2711), even though the aggrieved party has notified the repudiating party that the aggrieved party would await the latter’s performance and has urged retraction; and   3. in either case suspend the aggrieved party’s own performance or proceed in accordance with the provisions of this Article on the seller’s right to identify goods to the contract notwithstanding breach or to salvage unfinished goods (section 554.2704).

554.2611 Retraction of anticipatory repudiation.   1. Until the repudiating party’s next performance is due the repudiating party can retract the repudiation unless the aggrieved party has since the repudiation canceled or materially changed the aggrieved party’s position or otherwise indicated that the aggrieved party considers the repudiation final.   2. Retraction may be by any method which clearly indicates to the aggrieved party that the repudiating party intends to perform, but must include any assurance justifiably demanded under the provisions of this Article (section 554.2609).   3. Retraction reinstates the repudiating party’s rights under the contract with due excuse and allowance to the aggrieved party for any delay occasioned by the repudiation.

2021 Iowa Code|Title XIII - COMMERCE|Chapter 554 - UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE|Section 554.2612 - “Installment contract” — breach.

554.2612 “Installment contract” — breach.   1. An “installment contract” is one which requires or authorizes the delivery of goods in separate lots to be separately accepted, even though the contract contains a clause “each delivery is a separate contract” or its equivalent.   2. The buyer may reject any installment which is nonconforming if the nonconformity substantially impairs the value of that installment and cannot be cured or if the nonconformity is a defect in the required documents; but if the nonconformity does not fall within subsection 3 and the seller gives adequate assurance of its cure the buyer must accept that installment.   3. Whenever nonconformity or default with respect to one or more installments substantially impairs the value of the whole contract there is a breach of the whole. But the aggrieved party reinstates the contract if the aggrieved party accepts a nonconforming installment without seasonably notifying of cancellation or if the aggrieved party brings an action with respect only to past installments or demands performance as to future installments.

554.2613 Casualty to identified goods.   Where the contract requires for its performance goods identified when the contract is made, and the goods suffer casualty without fault of either party before the risk of loss passes to the buyer, or in a proper case under a “no arrival, no sale” term (section 554.2324) then   1. if the loss is total the contract is avoided; and   2. if the loss is partial or the goods have so deteriorated as no longer to conform to the contract the buyer may nevertheless demand inspection and at the buyer’s option either treat the contract as avoided or accept the goods with due allowance from the contract price for the deterioration or the deficiency in quantity but without further right against the seller.  [C24, 27, 31, 35, 39, §9936, 9937; C46, 50, 54, 58, 62, §554.8, 554.9; C66, 71, 73, 75, 77, 79, 81, §554.2613]  2009 Acts, ch 41, §263  Referred to in §554.2324

554.2614 Substituted performance.   1. Where without fault of either party the agreed berthing, loading, or unloading facilities fail or an agreed type of carrier becomes unavailable or the agreed manner of delivery otherwise becomes commercially impracticable but a commercially reasonable substitute is available, such substitute performance must be tendered and accepted.   2. If the agreed means or manner of payment fails because of domestic or foreign governmental regulation, the seller may withhold or stop delivery unless the buyer provides a means or manner of payment which is commercially a substantial equivalent. If delivery has already been taken, payment by the means or in the manner provided by the regulation discharges the buyer’s obligation unless the regulation is discriminatory, oppressive or predatory.

554.2615 Excuse by failure of presupposed conditions.   Except so far as a seller may have assumed a greater obligation and subject to section 554.2614 on substituted performance:   1. Delay in delivery or nondelivery in whole or in part by a seller who complies with subsections 2 and 3, is not a breach of the seller’s duty under a contract for sale if performance as agreed has been made impracticable by the occurrence of a contingency the nonoccurrence of which was a basic assumption on which the contract was made or by compliance in good faith with any applicable foreign or domestic governmental regulation or order whether or not it later proves to be invalid.   2. Where the causes mentioned in subsection 1 affect only a part of the seller’s capacity to perform, the seller must allocate production and deliveries among the seller’s customers but may at the seller’s option include regular customers not then under contract as well as the seller’s own requirements for further manufacture. The seller may so allocate in any manner which is fair and reasonable.   3. The seller must notify the buyer seasonably that there will be delay or nondelivery and, when allocation is required under subsection 2, of the estimated quota thus made available for the buyer.

554.2616 Procedure on notice claiming excuse.   1. Where the buyer receives notification of a material or indefinite delay or an allocation justified under section 554.2615 the buyer may by written notification to the seller as to any delivery concerned, and where the prospective deficiency substantially impairs the value of the whole contract under the provisions of this Article relating to breach of installment contracts (section 554.2612), then also as to the whole,   a. terminate and thereby discharge any unexecuted portion of the contract; or   b. modify the contract by agreeing to take the buyer’s available quota in substitution.   2. If after receipt of such notification from the seller the buyer fails so to modify the contract within a reasonable time not exceeding thirty days the contract lapses with respect to any deliveries affected.   3. The provisions of this section may not be negated by agreement except insofar as the seller has assumed a greater obligation under section 554.2615.

Where the seller discovers the buyer to be insolvent the seller may refuse delivery except for cash including payment for all goods theretofore delivered under the contract, and stop delivery under this Article (section 554.2705).   2. Where the seller discovers that the buyer has received goods on credit while insolvent the seller may reclaim the goods upon demand made within ten days after the receipt, but if misrepresentation of solvency has been made to the particular seller in writing within three months before delivery the ten-day limitation does not apply. Except as provided in this subsection the seller may not base a right to reclaim goods on the buyer’s fraudulent or innocent misrepresentation of solvency or of intent to pay.   3. The seller’s right to reclaim under subsection 2 is subject to the rights of a buyer in ordinary course or other good faith purchaser under this Article (section 554.2403).

The seller may stop delivery of goods in the possession of a carrier or other bailee when the seller discovers the buyer to be insolvent (section 554.2702) and may stop delivery of carload, truckload, planeload or larger shipments of express or freight when the buyer repudiates or fails to make a payment due before delivery or if for any other reason the seller has a right to withhold or reclaim the goods.   2. As against such buyer the seller may stop delivery until:   a. receipt of the goods by the buyer; or   b. acknowledgment to the buyer by any bailee of the goods except a carrier that the bailee holds the goods for the buyer; or   c. such acknowledgment to the buyer by a carrier by reshipment or as a warehouse; or   d. negotiation to the buyer of any negotiable document of title covering the goods.   3. a. To stop delivery the seller must so notify as to enable the bailee by reasonable diligence to prevent delivery of the goods.   b. After such notification the bailee must hold and deliver the goods according to the directions of the seller but the seller is liable to the bailee for any ensuing charges or damages.   c.
