(a) Unclaimed funds held and owing by an insurance company shall be presumed abandoned if a person other than the insured or annuitant is entitled to the funds and no address of such person is known to the company. If it is not definite and certain from the records of the company what person is entitled to the funds, it is presumed that the last-known address of the person entitled to the funds is the same as the last-known address of the insured or annuitant according to the records of the company.
(b) As used in this section, “unclaimed funds” means all moneys held and owing by any insurance company unclaimed and unpaid for more than three years after the moneys became due and payable as established from the records of a life insurance company under any life or endowment insurance policy or annuity contract which has matured or terminated or after the moneys became due and payable as established from the records of any other insurance company. A life insurance policy not matured by actual proof of the death of the insured is deemed to be matured and the proceeds thereof are deemed to be due and payable if such policy was in force when the insured attained the limiting age under the mortality table on which the reserve is based, unless the person appearing entitled thereto has within the preceding three years (1) assigned, readjusted or paid premiums on the policy, or subjected the policy to loan, or (2) corresponded in writing with the insurance company concerning the policy. Moneys otherwise payable according to the records of the company are deemed due and payable although the policy or contract has not been surrendered as required.
