This section shall not apply to a contract to which section 557A-409 applies.
(b) Insurance proceeds shall be allocated to income if they are from a policy that insures the trustee against the loss of occupancy or other use by an income beneficiary, the loss of income, or, subject to section 557A-403, the loss of profits from a business. [L 2000, c 191, pt of §1]
