§ 8206. Completion or alteration of security certificate.

(a) Completion of security certificate.--If a security certificate contains the signatures necessary to its issue or transfer but is incomplete in any other respect:

(1) any person may complete it by filling in the blanks as authorized; and

(2) even if the blanks are incorrectly filled in, the security certificate as completed is enforceable by a purchaser who took it for value and without notice of the incorrectness.

(b) Enforceability of improperly altered security certificate.--A complete security certificate that has been improperly altered, even if fraudulently, remains enforceable, but only according to its original terms.
