  1. (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.#

  2. (b)

    A trustee shall allocate to income 10 percent of the receipts from a liquidating asset and the balance to principal.#
