(a) A person who encodes information on or with respect to an item

payor bank or other payor that the information is correctly encoded.

(c) A person to whom warranties are made under this section and who
took the item in good faith may recover from the warrantor as damages
for breach of warranty an amount equal to the loss suffered as a
result of the breach, plus expenses and loss of interest incurred as a
result of the breach.
