Article 462 of Commercial Code

1 - If the bill of exchange is not presented for payment on its maturity date, every debtor thereunder may deposit its amount in the court treasury. The deposit shall be at the holder's expense and risk. 2 - The court registry shall deliver to the depositor a document stating the deposit of the amount, its value, the date of the bill of exchange, the maturity date, and the name of the person for whose benefit it was originally drawn. - If the holder demands payment from the debtor, the debtor must deliver the deposit document against receipt of the bill of exchange, and the holder may collect the amount from the registry by requirement of this document. If the debtor does not deliver the deposit document to the holder, he must pay him the value of the bill of exchange.
