1. A deed of gift, bill of sale or other writing intended to transfer an interest in tangible personal property which expressly states that the transfer is not to take effect until the death of the owner transfers ownership to the designated transferee beneficiary, effective on the death of the owner, if the instrument is in other respects sufficient to transfer the type of property involved and is executed by the owner and acknowledged before a notary public or other person authorized to administer oaths. A beneficiary transfer instrument need not be supported by consideration or be delivered to any transferee beneficiary.
