§12A-4A-501.
VARIATION BY AGREEMENT AND EFFECT OF FUNDS-TRANSFER SYSTEM RULE
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Article, the rights and
obligations of a party to a funds transfer may be varied by agreement
of the affected party.
(b) "Funds-transfer system rule" means a rule of an association of
banks (i) governing transmission of payment orders by means of a
funds-transfer system of the association or rights and obligations
with respect to those orders, or (ii) to the extent the rule governs
rights and obligations between banks that are parties to a funds
transfer in which a Federal Reserve Bank, acting as an intermediary
bank, sends a payment order to the beneficiary's bank. Except as
otherwise provided in this Article, a funds-transfer system rule
governing rights and obligations between participating banks using the
system may be effective even if the rule conflicts with this Article
and indirectly affects another party to the funds transfer who does
not consent to the rule. A funds-transfer system rule may also govern
rights and obligations of parties other than participating banks using
the system to the extent stated in subsection (c) of Section 29,
subsection (d) of Section 30, and subsection (c) of Section 38 of this
act.
