Where this section sits in the code

    (1) Payment of the sender's obligation under KRS 355.4A -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:

    1. Credited an account of the receiving bank with the sender; or

    2. 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    payment occurs when the credit is withdrawn or, if not withdrawn, at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 set tlement 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 t o 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 (2) banks transmit payment orders to each other under an agreement th at

    settlement of the obligations of each bank to the other under KRS 355.4A -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 (1) 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 a case not covered by subsection (1), the time when payment of the sender's

    obligation under KRS 355.4A -402(2) or (3) occ urs is governed by applicable

    principles of law that determine when an obligation is satisfied.
