B. Title to property of a limited liability company that is held in the name of one or more members or managers with an indication in the instrument transferring title to the property to them of their capacity as members or managers of a limited liability company, or of the existence of a limited liability company, even if the name of the limited liability company is not indicated, may be transferred by an instrument of transfer executed by the one or more members or managers in whose name title is held.

C. Property transferred under Subsection A or B of this section, or the proceeds of that property, may be recovered by the limited liability company if it proves that the act of the person executing the instrument of transfer did not bind the limited liability company, unless the initial transferee, or a person claiming through the initial transferee, gave value without having notice that the person who executed the instrument on behalf of the limited liability company lacked authority to bind the limited liability company.
