						<section id="a"><p><span class="prefix-number">a.</span> A <span class="dictionary">party</span> accepting a copy shall pay or render the consideration required by the agreement for the copy it accepts. Acceptance of a copy precludes refusal and, if made with knowledge of a nonconformity in a tender, may not be revoked because of the nonconformity unless acceptance was on the reasonable assumption that the nonconformity would be seasonably cured. Acceptance by itself does not impair any other remedy for nonconformity. <a id="paragraph-271509" class="section-permalink" href="https://vacode.org/59.1-506.10/#a"><i class="fa fa-link"/></a></p></section>
