Section 497.35. Statement to estate of stockholder.

  The board of directors, upon receiving actual notice of a stockholder’s death, shall provide a statement to the administrator or executor of the stockholder’s estate, or to the attorney representing the stockholder’s estate. The statement shall describe agricultural products owned by the stockholder which are in the possession of the association.

  This section shall not require an association to conduct a search of the status of its stockholders. The association shall exercise reasonable diligence in determining to whom the statement must be delivered. The statement shall be delivered to the administrator, executor, or attorney, within thirty days following a determination as to whom the statement must be delivered. A statement is not required to be prepared or delivered, if the association is not notified of the stockholder’s death within one year after the date of death, or by the date that the stockholder’s estate is closed, whichever is later.
