§ 1467. When security presumed abandoned

  • (a) Subject to section 1469 of this title, a security is presumed abandoned three years after: (1) the date a second consecutive communication sent by the holder by first-class U.S.
    mail to the apparent owner is returned to the holder undelivered by the U.S. Postal
    Service; or (2) if the second communication is made later than 30 days after the first communication
    is returned, the date the first communication is returned undelivered to the holder
    by the U.S. Postal Service. (b) If the holder does not send communications to the apparent owner of a security by
    first-class U.S. mail, the holder shall attempt to confirm the apparent owner’s interest
    in the security by sending the apparent owner an electronic-mail communication not
    later than two years after the apparent owner’s last indication of interest in the
    security. However, the holder promptly shall attempt to contact the apparent owner
    by first-class U.S. mail if: (1) the holder does not have information needed to send the apparent owner an electronic-mail
    communication or the holder believes that the apparent owner’s electronic-mail address
    in the holder’s records is not valid; (2) the holder receives notification that the electronic-mail communication was not received;
    or (3) the apparent owner does not respond to the electronic-mail communication not later
    than 30 days after the communication was sent. (c) If first-class U.S. mail sent under subsection (b) of this section is returned to
    the holder undelivered by the U.S. Postal Service, the security is presumed abandoned
    three years after the date the mail is returned. (Added 2019, No. 93 (Adj. Sess.), § 2, eff. Jan. 1, 2021.)
