(d) Upon a final determination of an insurer's obligation to pay any proceeds of a policy of insurance for damages caused by fire to real property, as such term is defined in section twenty-two of the general municipal law, and prior to payment of such proceeds, each insurer or, in the case of a policy purchased from an unauthorized insurer pursuant to section two thousand one hundred five of this chapter, each insurer or its adjusting representative, shall notify the enforcing officer of each tax district in which the property is located and which is entered in the index that a loss has been sustained and demand in writing by registered or certified mail that such officer's certificate indicating the amount of all liens of the district against the property, including interest and penalties to the date of the certificate, be served, at a specified address, in person or by registered or certified mail, upon the insurer, or, in the case of a policy purchased from an unauthorized insurer pursuant to section two thousand one hundred five of this chapter, upon the insurer or its adjusting representative, within twenty days from the date of receipt of such demand.

(e) Upon the failure of the enforcing officer to serve the certificate of lien in accordance with subsection (d) hereof, the right of the tax district to claim against any such proceeds shall terminate.
