(ii) Under the law of the other state, the property has become subject to a claim of abandonment by the other state;

(c) The property was subject to the custody of the administrator of this state under section 14-5-305, Idaho Code, and, under the law of the state of domicile of the holder, the property has become subject to a claim of abandonment by the state of domicile of the holder; or

(ii) Under the law of the other state, has become subject to a claim of abandonment by the other state.
(2) A claim by another state to recover property under this section must be presented in a form prescribed by the administrator, unless the administrator waives presentation of the form.
(3) The administrator shall decide a claim under this section no later than ninety (90) days after it is presented.

(4) The administrator may require another state, before recovering property under this section, to agree to indemnify this state and its agents, officers, and employees against any liability on a claim to the property.
