(A) A person knows a fact if the person has actual knowledge of the fact.

(B) A person has notice of a fact if the person knows of it, has received a notification of the fact, or has reason to know the fact exists from all of the facts known to the person at the time in question.

(C) A person notifies or gives notification to another person by taking steps reasonably required to inform the other person in ordinary course, whether or not the other person learns of that notification.

(D) A person receives a notification when the notification comes to the person's attention or is delivered at the person's place of business or at any other place the person holds out as a place for receiving communications.

(E)(1) Except as otherwise provided in division (F) of this section, a person other than an individual knows, has notice, or receives a notification of a fact for purposes of a particular transaction when the individual conducting the transaction knows, has notice, or receives a notification of the fact, or in any event, when the fact would have been brought to the individual's attention if the person had exercised reasonable diligence.

(2) A person exercises reasonable diligence if the person maintains reasonable routines for communicating significant information to the individual conducting the transaction and there is reasonable compliance with the routines. Reasonable diligence does not require an individual acting for the person to communicate information unless the communication is part of the individual's regular duties or the individual has reason to know of the transaction and that the transaction would be materially affected by the information.

(F) A partner's knowledge, notice, or receipt of a notification of a fact relating to the partnership is effective immediately as knowledge by, notice to, or receipt of a notification by the partnership, except in the case of a fraud on the partnership committed by or with the consent of that partner.
