  1 21 stockholder of an authorized farm corporation, a
  1 22 member of an authorized limited liability company, a
  1 23 beneficiary of an authorized trust, or a limited
  1 24 partner of a limited partnership proposes to transfer

  1 29 interest to each of the farmer stockholders, farmer
  1 30 members, farmer beneficiaries, or farmer limited
  1 31 partners on the same terms and at the same price as
  1 32 proposed to the person who is not a farmer
  1 33 stockholder, farmer member, farmer beneficiary, or

  1 35 farmer member, farmer beneficiary, or farmer limited
  1 36 partner shall have ten business days after being given
  1 37 notice of the terms and price of the proposed transfer
  1 38 in which to exercise the right to purchase the

  2  1 otherwise dispose of the interest to any other person
  2  2 on the terms upon which it was offered to the farmer
  2  3 stockholders, farmer members, farmer beneficiaries, or

  2  7 grandparent, lineal ascendants of grandparents or
  2  8 their spouses and other lineal descendants of the
  2  9 grandparents or their spouses or persons acting in a
  2 10 fiduciary capacity for persons so related."
