(a) As used in this Code section, the term “liquidating asset” means an asset whose value will diminish or terminate because such asset is expected to produce receipts for a period of limited duration. Such term includes a leasehold, patent, copyright, royalty right, and right to receive payments during a period of more than one year under an arrangement that does not provide for the payment of interest on the unpaid balance. Such term shall not include a payment subject to Code Section 53-12-425, resources subject to Code Section 53-12-427, timber subject to Code Section 53-12-428, an activity subject to Code Section 53-12-430, an asset subject to Code Section 53-12-431, or any asset for which the trustee establishes a reserve for depreciation under Code Section 53-12-452.
