§ 22-609. Copy; time of acceptance
(a) Acceptance of a copy occurs when the party to which the copy is tendered:
(1) Signifies, or acts with respect to the copy in a manner that signifies, that the tender was conforming or that the party will take or retain the copy despite the nonconformity;
(2) Does not make an effective refusal;
(3) Commingles the copy or the information in a manner that makes compliance with the party's duties after refusal impossible;
(4) Obtains a substantial benefit from the copy and cannot return that benefit; or
(5) Acts in a manner inconsistent with the licensor's ownership, but the act is an acceptance only if the licensor elects to treat it as an acceptance and ratifies the act to the extent it was within contractual use terms.
(b) Except in cases governed by subsection (a)(3) or (4) of this section, if there is a right to inspect under § 22-608 of this subtitle or the agreement, acceptance of a copy occurs only after the party has had a reasonable opportunity to inspect the copy.
(c) If an agreement requires delivery in stages involving separate portions that taken together comprise the whole of the information, acceptance of any stage is conditional until acceptance of the whole.
