Except as otherwise provided in sections 42a-2A-207 to 42a-2A-210, inclusive, the following rules apply:

(1) A lease contract may be formed by the interaction of electronic agents.

(A) Cause the electronic agent to complete the transaction or performance; or
(B) Indicate acceptance of an offer, regardless of other expressions or actions by the individual to which the electronic agent cannot react.
(3) In an interaction between individuals, if an offer evokes an electronic message in response, a lease contract is formed:
(A) If the offer is accepted under section 42a-2A-205, when the acceptance is received; or
(B) If the offer is accepted by an electronic performance, when the performance is received, unless the originating message required acceptance in a different manner.
