was first generated in final form as an electronic record or under
Section 22 of this act; and

record does not apply to information the sole purpose of which is to
enable the record to be sent, communicated, or received.
C.  A person may satisfy the requirements of subsection A of
this section by using the services of another person.
D.  If the laws of this state require a non-testamentary estate
planning document to be presented or retained in its original form
or provides consequences if a non-testamentary estate planning
document is not presented or retained in its original form, an
electronic record retained in accordance with subsection A of this
section satisfies such requirement.

governmental agency from specifying requirements for the retention
of a record subject to the agency’s jurisdiction in addition to the
requirements provided in this section.  For the purposes of this
