Shares or deposits may be held in the name of a member in trust for a beneficiary, or in the name of a nonmember in trust for a beneficiary who is a member. Payment of all or part of such trust funds to the person in whose name the shares or deposits are held shall, to the extent of such payment, discharge the liability of the credit union to that party and to the beneficiary, and the credit union shall be under no obligation to see to the application of such payment. Until the death of the person in whose name the shares or deposits are held, that person shall possess and may exercise all rights respecting such shares or deposits, including the power to vote, pledge, withdraw, in whole or in part, make additions to, and to in any way deal with said shares or deposits, unless the credit union shall have been given written notice of the terms of any trust agreement to the contrary. Absent such written notice, the receipt and acquittance of the person in whose name the shares or deposits are held shall be a valid and sufficient release and discharge of the credit union as to any payment to that person. In the event of the death of the person in whose name a trust account is held, where the credit union has been given no other written notice of the terms of any trust, the shares or deposits so held, or any part thereof, together with dividends, or interest thereon, shall be payable to the beneficiary and the receipt or acquittance of the beneficiary shall be valid and sufficient release and discharge to the credit union for any payment so made.
