§ 104A.2511. Merchant lessee's duties as to rightfully rejected goods

1. Subject to any security interest of a lessee (subsection 5 of NRS 104A.2508 ), if a lessor or a supplier has no agent or place of business at the market of rejection,

a merchant lessee, after rejection of goods in his or her possession or control, shall

follow any reasonable instructions received from the lessor or the supplier with respect

to the goods. In the absence of those instructions a merchant lessee shall make reasonable efforts

to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the goods for the lessor's account if they

threaten to decline in value speedily. Instructions are not reasonable if on demand indemnity for expenses is not forthcoming. 2. If a merchant lessee (subsection 1) or any other lessee ( NRS 104A.2512 ) disposes of goods, he or she is entitled to reimbursement either from the lessor

or the supplier or out of the proceeds for reasonable expenses of caring for and disposing

of the goods and, if the expenses include no disposition commission, to such commission

as is usual in the trade, or if there is none, to a reasonable sum not exceeding 10

percent of the gross proceeds. 3. In complying with this section or NRS 104A.2512 , the lessee is held only to good faith. Good faith conduct hereunder is neither acceptance or conversion nor the basis of

an action for damages. 4. A purchaser who purchases in good faith from a lessee pursuant to this section

or NRS 104A.2512 takes the goods free of any rights of the lessor and the supplier even though the

lessee fails to comply with one or more of the requirements of this Article.
