B. If property other than money is delivered to the department pursuant to this chapter, the department shall provide the owner with any income or gain realized or accruing on the property at or before liquidation or conversion of the property to money. If the property delivered to the department is an interest bearing demand, savings or time deposit, including a deposit that is automatically renewable, the department shall pay interest at the legal rate or any lesser rate that the property earned while in the possession of the holder. Interest begins to accrue when the property is delivered to the department and ceases ten years after delivery or on the date the department pays the owner, whichever occurs first.
