Sec. 8-302.

(810 ILCS 5/8-304) (from Ch. 26, par. 8-304)
Sec. 8-304.
Indorsement.
(a) An indorsement may be in blank or special. An indorsement in
blank includes an indorsement to bearer. A special indorsement specifies to
whom a security is to be transferred or who has power to transfer it. A
holder may convert a blank indorsement to a special indorsement.
(b) An indorsement purporting to be only of part of a security
certificate representing units intended by the issuer to be separately
transferable is effective to the extent of the indorsement.
(c) An indorsement, whether special or in blank, does not
constitute a transfer until delivery of the certificate on which it appears or,
if
the indorsement is on a separate document, until delivery of both the
document and the certificate.
(d) If a security certificate in registered form has been delivered to
a purchaser without a necessary indorsement, the purchaser may become a
protected purchaser only when the indorsement is supplied. However,
against a transferor, a transfer is complete upon delivery and the purchaser
has a specifically enforceable right to have any necessary indorsement
supplied.
(e) An indorsement of a security certificate in bearer form may give
notice of an adverse claim to the certificate, but it does not otherwise affect
a right to registration that the holder possesses.
(f) Unless otherwise agreed, a person making an indorsement
assumes only the obligations provided in Section 8-108 and not an obligation
that the security will be honored by the issuer.

(810 ILCS 5/8-305) (from Ch. 26, par. 8-305)
Sec. 8-305.
Instruction.
(a) If an instruction has been originated by an appropriate person
but is incomplete in any other respect, any person may complete it as
authorized and the issuer may rely on it as completed, even though it has
been completed incorrectly.
(b) Unless otherwise agreed, a person initiating an instruction
assumes only the obligations imposed by Section 8-108 and not an obligation
that the security will be honored by the issuer.

(810 ILCS 5/8-306) (from Ch. 26, par. 8-306)
Sec. 8-306.
Effect of guaranteeing signature,
indorsement, or instruction.
(a) A person who guarantees a signature of an indorser of a
security certificate warrants that at the time of signing:
(1) the signature was genuine;
(2) the signer was an appropriate person to indorse, | ||
| ||
(3) the signer had legal capacity to sign.
(b) A person who guarantees a signature of the originator of an
instruction warrants that at the time of signing:
(1) the signature was genuine;
(2) the signer was an appropriate person to originate | ||
| ||
(3) the signer had legal capacity to sign.
(c) A person who specially guarantees the signature of an originator
of an instruction makes the warranties of a signature guarantor under
subsection (b) and also warrants that at the time the instruction is presented
to the issuer:
(1) the person specified in the instruction as the | ||
| ||
(2) the transfer of the uncertificated security | ||
| ||
(d) A guarantor under subsections (a) and (b) or a special
guarantor under subsection (c) does not otherwise warrant the rightfulness
of the transfer.
(e) A person who guarantees an indorsement of a security
certificate makes the warranties of a signature guarantor under subsection
(a) and also warrants the rightfulness of the transfer in all respects.
(f) A person who guarantees an instruction requesting the transfer
of an uncertificated security makes the warranties of a special signature
guarantor under subsection (c) and also warrants the rightfulness of the
transfer in all respects.
(g) An issuer may not require a special guaranty of signature, a
guaranty of indorsement, or a guaranty of instruction as a condition to
registration of transfer.
(h) The warranties under this Section are made to a person taking
or dealing with the security in reliance on the guaranty, and the guarantor is
liable to the person for loss resulting from their breach. An indorser or
originator of an instruction whose signature, indorsement, or instruction has
been guaranteed is liable to a guarantor for any loss suffered by the
guarantor as a result of breach of the warranties of the guarantor.

Sec. 8-307.
Purchaser's right to requisites for
registration of transfer. Unless otherwise agreed, the transferor
of a security on due demand shall supply the purchaser with proof of
authority to transfer or with any other requisite necessary to obtain
registration of the transfer of the security, but if the transfer is not for
value, a transferor need not comply unless the purchaser pays the necessary
expenses. If the transferor fails within a reasonable time to comply with the
demand, the purchaser may reject or rescind the transfer.
