(1) Whenever a tenant shall have the right to income from periodic payments, which shall include rent, interest on loans, and annuities, but shall not include dividends on corporate shares, and such right shall cease and determine by death or in any other manner at a time other than the date when such periodic payments should be paid, the tenant or his or her personal representative shall be entitled to that portion of any such income next payable which amounts to the same percentage thereof as the time elapsed from the last due date of such periodic payments to and including the day of the determination of his or her right is of the total period during which such income would normally accrue.

(2) The remaining income shall be paid to the person next entitled to income by the terms of the transaction by which the principal was established. But no action shall be brought by the trustee or tenant to recover such apportioned income or any portion thereof until after the day on which it would have become due to the tenant but for the determination of the right of the tenant entitled thereto.

(3) The provisions of this section shall apply regardless of whether an ultimate remainderman is specifically named. Likewise, when the right of the first tenant accrues at a time other than the payment dates of such periodic payments, he or she shall only receive that portion of such income which amounts to the same percentage thereof as the time during which he or she has been so entitled is of the total period during which such income would normally accrue. The balance shall be a part of the principal.
