REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection is new language derived without

The word "includes" is substituted for the former word "means" because
the definition of "person" in this subsection is not exhaustive but rather
expands the definition of "person" in § 1-101 of this article.

The former reference to "any natural person, company, firm, cooperative,
partnership, corporation, association, consortium, unincorporated
organization, trust, estate, any entity organized for a common business
purpose" is deleted as included in the article-wide definition of "person".
See § 1-101 of this article.
