    The predecessor Act exclusively governs all actions or proceedings that are pending on July 1, 2009, or may be instituted on the basis of conduct occurring before July 1, 2009, but a civil action may not be maintained to enforce any liability under the predecessor Act unless instituted within any period of limitation that applied when the cause of action accrued or within five years after July 1, 2009, whichever is earlier.#

  2. (b)
