        (b)  Manner of tender of payment.--Tender of payment is
     sufficient when made by any means or in any manner current in

     payment in legal tender and gives any extension of time
     reasonably necessary to procure it.
        (c)  Payment by check.--Subject to the provisions of this
     title on the effect of an instrument on an obligation (section
