Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, if any credit union domiciled in Louisiana is unable to contact a member, beneficiary or other person via first class mail at the last address shown on the records of the credit union, and if such inability continues for a period of more than two years, all shares, dividends and other sums not in excess of one hundred dollars due to or standing in the name of such member, beneficiary, or other person may, by action of the board of directors, be credited to the reserve for inactive accounts of the credit union, and thereafter no dividends will accrue thereto. The members shall have the right to reclaim any such sums after such action of the board of directors. This provision shall not apply to shares, dividends and other sums due to or standing in the name of two or more persons unless the credit union is unable to contact any of such persons in the manner and during the period specified in this provision.
