1. (1) if:

   1. (A) action is required to protect the property on loan or other property in the custody of the museum; or
   2. (B) the property on loan is a hazard to the health and safety of the public or the museum staff; and

2. (2) if:

   1. (A) the museum is unable to reach the lender at the lender's last known address within three (3) days before the time the museum determines action is necessary; or

   2. (B) the lender does not respond or will not agree to the protective measures the museum recommends and does not terminate the loan and retrieve the property within three (3) days.
