1. Except as otherwise provided in
subsection 2, if the buyer moves to another geographic area beyond the normal
service facilities of the seller and performers under the prepaid burial
merchandise and service contract, the contract automatically terminates upon
the buyers written notice to the seller and trustee of the move of the buyer
and of the desire of the buyer to terminate the contract. The trustee, as soon
as reasonably possible after receipt of the notice, shall refund to the buyer
all money, including earned interest, in the trust fund held for the buyers
account.

the buyer is not in default thereunder, upon the demise of the buyer, the
contract automatically terminates. Upon termination, the seller shall:
(a) Furnish the merchandise and perform or
arrange to perform the services;
(b) Make arrangements for the fulfillment of the
agreement on a dollar-for-dollar basis with another performer serving the area
to which the buyer has moved; or
(c) Refund to the buyer or the representative or
estate of the buyer, or transfer to a substituted performer, all money,
including earned interest, in the trust fund held for the buyers account.
3. The cemetery authority shall include a
provision in each prepaid contract substantially stating: If the purchaser
defaults in making any payment under this contract, the cemetery authority may
terminate the contract and is entitled to retain as damages not more than 40
percent of the total purchase price. The balance remaining, if any, must be
refunded to the purchaser.
