(a) If, after an owner makes a beneficiary
designation, the owner's marriage is dissolved or annulled, any
provision of the beneficiary designation in favor of the owner's former
spouse is revoked on the date the marriage is dissolved or annulled.
Revocation under this subsection is effective regardless of whether the
beneficiary designation refers to the owner's marital status. The
beneficiary designation is given effect as if the former spouse had not
survived the owner.
(b) Subsection (a) does not apply to a provision of a beneficiary
designation that:
(1) has been made irrevocable, or revocable only with the spouse's
consent;
(2) is made after the marriage is dissolved or annulled; or
(3) expressly states that the dissolution or annulment of the
marriage does not affect the designation of a spouse or a relative
of the spouse as a beneficiary.
(c) A provision of a beneficiary designation that is revoked solely
by subsection (a) is revived by the owner's remarriage to the former
spouse or by a nullification of the dissolution or annulment of the
marriage.
