1 The payer for honour acquires the rights under the bill against the party for whom he paid and against those liable to said party under the bill. However, he is not entitled to endorse it further.
2 The subsequent endorsers of the party in whose honour payment was made are released.
3 Where several payments for honour are offered, preference is given to those resulting in release of the largest number of parties liable on the bill. A person paying in honour in contravention of this provision and in full knowledge of the situation forfeits his right of recourse against those who would otherwise have been released.
1 Del pagamento per intervento deve essere data quietanza sulla cambiale coll’indicazione per chi è fatto. In mancanza di tale indicazione, il pagamento si intende fatto per il traente.
2 La cambiale e il protesto, se sia stato levato, devono essere consegnati a chi paga per intervento.
