allonge
allonge (a-lawnzh). A slip of paper sometimes attached to a negotiable instrument for the purpose of receiving further indorsements when the original paper is filled with indorsements. • Former UCC § 3-202 required that indorsements be made on the instrument unless there was no space — and only then could an allonge be used. Current § 3-204(a) eliminates that requirement and provides that “a paper affixed to the instrument is part of the instrument.” The UCC comment makes it clear that the allonge is valid even if space is available on the instrument.
