TIME AND PLACE OF SENDING AND RECEIPT

(a) Unless otherwise agreed between the sender and the

recipient, an electronic record is sent when it:

(1) is addressed properly or otherwise directed properly to an

information processing system that the recipient has designated or

uses for the purpose of receiving electronic records or information

of the type sent and from which the recipient is able to retrieve

the electronic record;

(2) is in a form capable of being processed by that system; and

(3) enters an information processing system outside the control

of the sender or of a person that sent the electronic record on

behalf of the sender or enters a region of the information

processing system designated or used by the recipient which is under

the control of the recipient.

(b) Unless otherwise agreed between a sender and the recipient,

an electronic record is received when:

(1) it enters an information processing system that the

recipient has designated or uses for the purpose of receiving

electronic records or information of the type sent and from which

the recipient is able to retrieve the electronic record; and

(2) it is in a form capable of being processed by that system.

(c) Subsection (b) of this section applies even if the place

the information processing system is located is different from the

place the electronic record is deemed to be received under

subsection (d) of this section.

(d) Unless otherwise expressly provided in the electronic

record or agreed between the sender and the recipient, an electronic

record is deemed to be sent from the sender’s place of business and

to be received at the recipient’s place of business. For purposes

of this subsection, the following rules apply:

(1) If the sender or recipient has more than one place of

business, the place of business of that person is the place having

the closest relationship to the underlying transaction.

(2) If the sender or the recipient does not have a place of

business, the place of business is the sender’s or recipient’s

residence, as the case may be.

(e) An electronic record is received under subsection (b) of

this section even if no individual is aware of its receipt.

(f) Receipt of an electronic acknowledgment from an information

processing system described in subsection (b) of this section

establishes that a record was received but, by itself, does not

establish that the content sent corresponds to the content received.

(g) If a person is aware that an electronic record purportedly

sent under subsection (a) of this section, or purportedly received

under subsection (b) of this section, was not actually sent or

received, the legal effect of the sending or receipt is determined

by other applicable law. Except to the extent permitted by the

other law, the requirements of this subsection may not be varied by

agreement.
