(1) Shares may be issued in trust to a member as trustee or to an individual or corporate trustee. If a corporate trustee is a bank or trust company, shares may be issued to the corporate trustee only if such bank or trust company is organized under the laws of the State of Illinois or is a nationally chartered bank located principally in the State of Illinois. An individual trustee shall be a member of the credit union unless the person establishing the trust in respect to which such shares are issued or each beneficiary of the trust is a member of the credit union and the name of each beneficiary is disclosed to the credit union. Shares may also be issued in the name of an individual or corporate representative under the Illinois Probate Act of 1975 (i) for or in respect to a member of a credit union; or (ii) for or in respect of a nonmember of a credit union, if the representative is an individual who is a member of the credit union. Shares may also be issued in trust under the Illinois Funeral or Burial Funds Act, for or in respect to a member of a credit union, to a trustee licensed under said Act. Any credit union which issues shares in trust as provided in this Section must be insured by the NCUA or another approved insurer. Payment of part or all of such shares to such trustee or member shall, to the extent of such payment, discharge the liability of the credit union to the member and the beneficiary and the credit union shall be under no obligation to see to the application of such payment.
