Sec. 16. (a) Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to prohibit a lender from enforcing its rights in property identified in section 1(b) of this chapter and, to the extent necessary, naming the legacy trust or trustee of the trust as a defendant to the action or proceeding.
(b) If an asset described in section 1(b)(1) of this chapter is transferred to a legacy trust or trustee of a legacy trust, the transferor of that asset must send written notice of the transfer to the pertinent lender within fifteen (15) days after that transfer. The transferor must send the notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the registered agent for the lender. If there is no registered agent for the lender, the transferor must send notice to one (1) of the following:
(1) The last known address of the lender.
(2) The last address specified by the lender for mailing payments on the obligations.
(3) The address specified by the lender for general inquiries by customers.
The notice must include the name of the transferor, a description of the asset transferred, the name of the trustee, and the date that the transfer was completed. Upon request, the transferor or trustee shall provide the lender with a certification of the trust under IC 30-4-4-5, the names and addresses of the qualified beneficiaries of the trust, and copies of the pages from the trust instrument that identify the current trustee and describe the trustee's administrative powers and duties.
(c) Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to authorize any disposition that is prohibited by the terms of any agreements, notes, guaranties, mortgages, indentures, instruments, undertakings, or other documents. Any provisions that prohibit such transfer or disposition shall be binding and shall make this chapter inapplicable, so long as any indebtedness remains outstanding in connection with such agreements, notes, guaranties, mortgages, indentures, instruments, undertakings, or other similar documents.
(d) In the event of a conflict between this section and any other provision of this chapter, this section shall control.
