Uniform Commercial Code Comment Uniform Statutory Source:Sections 2-602(2)(b) and (c) and 2-604. Changes: Substantially rewritten. Purposes: The introduction to subsection (1) references goods that threaten to decline in value speedily and not perishables, the reference in Section 2-604, the statutory analogue. This is a change in style, not substance, as the first phrase includes the second. Subparagraphs (a) and (c) are revised versions of the provisions of Section 2-602(2)(b) and (c). Subparagraph (a) states the rule with respect to the lessee’s treatment of goods in its possession following rejection; subparagraph (b) states the rule regarding such goods if the lessor or supplier then fails to give instructions to the lessee. If the lessee performs in a fashion consistent with subparagraphs (a) and (b), subparagraph (c) exonerates the lessee. Cross References:Sections 2-602(2)(b), 2-602(2)(c) and 2-604. Definitional Cross References: 'Action'. Section 1-201(1). 'Goods'.
