The right conferred by paragraph 1 shall be exercisable by furnishing a notification in writing —
if the surviving husband or wife is not a personal representative of the intestate — to the personal representative or to each personal representative, as the case may be, of the intestate; or
if the surviving husband or wife is one of the personal representatives of the intestate — to the other personal representative, or to each other personal representative, as the case may be, of the intestate; or
if the surviving husband or wife is the sole personal representative of the intestate — to the Principal Registrar.
A notification under subparagraph (1) is not revocable except with the consent of the personal representative or of each personal representative, as the case may be, of the intestate.
Where the surviving husband or wife is not a personal representative of the intestate he or she may require the personal representative to have the interest valued and to inform him or her of the result of that valuation before he or she decides whether to exercise the right conferred by paragraph 1.
