| 22 | | Sec. 4. Payable on Death Account Incidents. If one or more | 23 | | persons opening
or
holding an account sign an agreement with | 24 | | the institution
providing that
on the death of the
last |
| | | 10300HB1636ham001 | - 48 - | LRB103 25127 BMS 58835 a |
|
| 1 | | surviving person designated as holder the account shall be | 2 | | paid
to or held by one or more designated beneficiaries, the | 3 | | account, and any balance
therein which exists from time to | 4 | | time, shall be held as a payment on death
account and unless | 5 | | otherwise agreed in writing between the person or
persons | 6 | | opening
or holding the account and the institution:
| 7 | | (a) Any holder during his or her lifetime may change any of | 8 | | the
designated beneficiaries to own the account at the death | 9 | | of the
last surviving holder without the
knowledge or consent | 10 | | of any other holder or the designated beneficiaries
by a
| 11 | | written instrument
accepted by the institution;
| 12 | | (b) Any holder may make additional deposits to and | 13 | | withdraw any
part or
all of the account at any time without the | 14 | | knowledge or consent of any other
holder or the
designated | 15 | | beneficiaries to own the account at the death
of the last | 16 | | surviving holder,
subject to the bylaws and regulations of the | 17 | | institution, and all
withdrawals shall constitute a revocation | 18 | | of the agreement as to the amount
withdrawn; and
| 19 | | (c) Upon the death of the last surviving holder of the | 20 | | account, the
beneficiary
designated to be the owner of the | 21 | | account (i) who is then living, if the beneficiary is a natural | 22 | | person, or (ii) that maintains a lawful existence under the | 23 | | state or federal authority pursuant to which it was organized, | 24 | | if the beneficiary is not a natural person, shall be the
sole | 25 | | owner of the account . If , unless more than one beneficiary is | 26 | | so designated and

| | | 10300HB1636ham001 | - 49 - | LRB103 25127 BMS 58835 a |
|
| 1 | | case those beneficiaries shall hold the account in
equal
| 2 | | shares as tenants in common with no right of survivorship as | 3 | | between those
beneficiaries ; and . | 4 | | (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in subsection | 5 | | (c), any holder of the account may elect a per stirpes | 6 | | distribution option to the descendants of a natural person | 7 | | beneficiary if the beneficiary predeceases the last surviving | 8 | | holder of the account. The institution may rely on the account | 9 | | holder's written representation of the identity of the | 10 | | descendants of each beneficiary living at the time of the | 11 | | beneficiary designation. The institution may also rely on an | 12 | | affidavit executed by a natural person beneficiary or | 13 | | descendant of a natural person beneficiary of the last | 14 | | surviving holder of the account upon or after the death of the | 15 | | account holder that identifies the descendants of any | 16 | | predeceased natural person beneficiary. The total percentage | 17 | | of the account to be distributed to all beneficiaries upon the | 18 | | death of the last surviving holder of the account must equal | 19 | | 100%. If no beneficiary designated as the owner of the
account | 20 | | on the death of the last surviving holder is then living or in | 21 | | existence, or if a per stirpes distribution has been selected | 22 | | and no descendant of a natural person beneficiary is then | 23 | | living, then the
proceeds shall vest
in the estate of the last | 24 | | surviving holder of the account.

combination thereof, of any agreement, | 11 | | transaction, act, occurrence, or event
by any electronic or | 12 | | computer-generated process that accurately reproduces,
| 13 | | comprises, or records the agreement, transaction, act, | 14 | | occurrence, or event,
the recording, comprising, or | 15 | | reproduction shall have the same force and effect under the | 16 | | laws of this State

unique to the person using it, is capable of | 3 | | verification, is under the sole
control of the person using | 4 | | it, and is linked to data in such a manner that if

and | 11 | | (D) after the consent of a consumer in accordance | 12 | | with subparagraph (A), if a change in the hardware or | 13 | | software requirements needed to access or retain | 14 | | electronic records creates a material risk that the | 15 | | consumer will not be able to access or retain a | 16 | | subsequent electronic record that was the subject of | 17 | | the consent, the person providing the electronic | 18 | | record: | 19 | | (i) provides the consumer with a statement of: | 20 | | (I) the revised hardware and software | 21 | | requirements for access to and retention of | 22 | | the electronic records, and | 23 | | (II) the right to withdraw consent without | 24 | | the imposition of any fees for the withdrawal | 25 | | and without the imposition of any condition or | 26 | | consequence that was not disclosed under |

|
| 1 | | subparagraph (B)(i); and | 2 | | (ii) again complies with subparagraph (C). | 3 | | (2) Other rights. | 4 | | (A) Preservation of consumer protections.

If a law that | 10 | | was enacted prior to this amendatory Act of the 95th | 11 | | General Assembly expressly requires a record to be | 12 | | provided or made available by a specified method that | 13 | | requires verification or acknowledgment of receipt, | 14 | | the record may be provided or made available | 15 | | electronically only if the method used provides the | 16 | | required verification or acknowledgment of receipt. | 17 | | (2.5) Consent to electronic transactions given by the | 18 | | customer pursuant to the federal Electronic Signatures in | 19 | | Global and National Commerce Act, 15 U.S.C. 7001, shall | 20 | | satisfy the consent requirements of this Act. | 21 | | (3) Effect of failure to obtain electronic consent or | 22 | | confirmation of consent. The legal effectiveness, | 23 | | validity, or enforceability of any contract executed by a | 24 | | consumer shall not be denied solely because of the failure | 25 | | to obtain electronic consent or confirmation of consent by | 26 | | that consumer in accordance with paragraph (1)(C)(ii). |

| 1 | | (4) Prospective effect. Withdrawal of consent by a | 2 | | consumer shall not affect the legal effectiveness, | 3 | | validity, or enforceability of electronic records provided | 4 | | or made available to that consumer in accordance with | 5 | | paragraph (1) prior to implementation of the consumer's | 6 | | withdrawal of consent. A consumer's withdrawal of consent | 7 | | shall be effective within a reasonable period of time | 8 | | after receipt of the withdrawal by the provider of the | 9 | | record. Failure to comply with paragraph (1)(D) may, at | 10 | | the election of the consumer, be treated as a withdrawal | 11 | | of consent for purposes of this paragraph. | 12 | | (5) Prior consent. This subsection does not apply to | 13 | | any records that are provided or made available to a | 14 | | consumer who has consented prior to the effective date of | 15 | | this amendatory Act of the 95th General Assembly to | 16 | | receive the records in electronic form as permitted by any | 17 | | statute, regulation, or other rule of law. | 18 | | (6) Oral communications. An oral communication or a | 19 | | recording of an oral communication shall not qualify as an | 20 | | electronic record for purposes of this subsection (c), | 21 | | except as otherwise provided under applicable law.
