The term includes a leasehold, patent, copyright, royalty right, and right to receive payments during a period of more than one year under an arrangement that does not provide for the payment of interest on the unpaid balance. The term does not include a payment subject to 11-A-4.9, resources subject to 11-A-4.11, timber subject to 11-A-4.12, an activity subject to 11-A-4.14, an asset subject to 11-A-4.15, or any asset for which the trustee establishes a reserve for depreciation under 11-A-5.3.

(b) A trustee shall allocate to income ten percent of the receipts from a liquidating asset and the balance to principal.
