Cal. Code Regs. tit. 10 § 920

Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 45, November 8, 2024
Section 920 - Signatures
(a) Prior to consummating a commercial financing, a financer shall obtain a copy of the disclosures made pursuant to sections 22802 and 22803 of the code that are signed by the recipient. Where the recipient is not a natural person, a natural person authorized to sign on behalf of the legal entity may sign the disclosure, provided that the natural person is not a broker. Such disclosures may be transmitted between the recipient and the provider via electronic transmission and utilizing electronic signatures, regardless of whether subsequent financing agreements, amendments and supplements are provided to the recipient in person, by mail or electronically.
(b) If a commercial financing transaction is consummated electronically, a provider may obtain a recipient's signature on the required disclosures electronically or by facsimile.
(c) A provider is not required to obtain the recipient's signature on any disclosure for a commercial financing transaction that is not consummated. When a provider provides multiple disclosures to a recipient during the negotiation of a commercial financing transaction that is ultimately consummated, the provider need only obtain the recipient's signature on the final disclosure that corresponds to the consummated transaction.
