(1) The administrator may require any person who has not filed a report to file one stating whether or not the person is holding any unclaimed property reportable or deliverable under this article.

(2) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (7) of this section, the administrator, at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, may examine the records of any person to determine whether the person has complied with the provisions of this article. The administrator may conduct the examination even if the person believes he is not in possession of any property reportable or deliverable under this article.

(3) If a person is treated under section 38-13-107 as the holder of the property only insofar as the interest of the business association in the property is concerned, the administrator, pursuant to subsection (2) of this section, may examine the records of the person if the administrator has given the notice required by subsection (2) of this section to both the person and the business association at least ninety days before the examination.

(4) If an examination of the records of a person results in the disclosure of property reportable and deliverable under this article, the administrator may assess the cost of the examination against the holder at the rate of fifty dollars a day for each examiner, but in no case may the charges exceed the value of the property found to be reportable and deliverable. The cost of examination made pursuant to subsection (3) of this section may be imposed only against the banking or financial organization.

(6) Repealed.

(7) Any examination under this section of the records of a business association with annual gross receipts of less than five hundred thousand dollars arising from a report filed under this article by such an association shall be conducted by the administrator within three years from the date of filing such report.
