Where this section sits in the code

    A party to or purchaser for value in good faith of a document of title, other than a bill of

    lading, that relies upon the description of the goods in the document may recover from

    the issuer damages caused by the nonreceipt or misdescription of the goods, except to the

    extent that:

    (1) The document conspicuously indicates that the issuer does not know whether all or

    part of the goods in fact were received or conform to the description, such as a case

    in which the description is in terms of marks or labels o r kind, quantity, or

    condition, or the receipt or description is qualified by "contents, condition, and

    quality unknown," "said to contain," or words of similar import, if the indication is

    true; or

    (2) The party or purchaser otherwise has notice of the nonreceipt or misdescription.
