The Donor, in consideration of the Agreements and undertakings made by the Trustee and other valuable consideration, does now irrevocably assign, transfer and set over to the Trustee and successor Trustees the property listed in Schedule A attached to and by this reference made a part of this Agreement, and the Trustee is authorized to and agrees that Trustee will receive and hold the property and, subject to Section II such additional property as may be transferred, assigned or bequeathed to the Trustee by any person or organization, to become a part of the Trust Fund created, and all investments, reinvestments and income for the following uses and Trusts: I. Disposition of Principal and Income. This Trust Fund shall be held for the benefit of Donor's child, __________________ (name of child) , upon the following terms and conditions: A. Until the child shall attain the age of __________________ (age) years, the Trustee shall pay to such child all of the income of the Trust. B. Until the child shall attain the age of __________________ (age) years, the Trustee shall pay to or apply for the benefit of the child all or part of the principal of the Trust as the Trustee shall determine. C. If at any time or times the Donor or any other person makes any gifts to the Trust or is deemed to have made any gifts to the Trust for United States gift- tax purposes, the child shall have the power to appoint to __________________ (himself/herself) solely out of the assets constituting the gift to the Trust an amount not exceeding the amount of the gift; provided, however, that the amount which can be appointed by the child out of each such gift shall be limited to $5,000 per donor in any one calendar year. No donor shall have any power to amend the designation or in any way alter the rights of the beneficiary pursuant to this Paragraph C after the transfer is made. Each of the powers of appointment may be exercised only within the calendar year within which the power of appointment arises. Each power of appointment that is not exercised within the time provided shall lapse. A power of appointment shall be exercised by the delivery of a writing setting forth the exercise to the Trustee within the time specified for exercise. D. If the child shall die before attaining age __________________ (age of child) years, all of the principal of this Trust shall be paid to and among a class limited to the child's issue in amounts and proportions as may be appointed by the child's last will and testament specifically referring to this special power of appointment. E. To the extent that the child fails to exercise the special power of appointment effectively, the principal and income remaining shall be set aside in separate and distinct trusts for the child's then living issue, per stirpes, or, if there be none, for the child's brothers and sisters then living and the then-living issue of the child's brothers and sisters then deceased , per stirpes, or, if there be none, for the persons then living, excluding the Donor and any other Donor, who would have inherited the estate of the child if the child had then died intestate under the laws of __________________ (name of state) existing on the date of the execution of this instrument in the proportions prescribed by such laws. Each Trust will be designated with the name of the person for whom it is set aside. Each Trust created under the terms of this paragraph will be held, administered, divided and distributed in the same manner as the Trust for the initial beneficiary, and in applying the terms of this instrument the person with whose name such subsequent Trust is designated shall be considered the child. F. When the child of the Donor shall attain the age of __________________ (age of child at distribution 1) years, the Trustee shall pay over to the child __________________ (fraction of principal distributed at distribution 1) of the principal of the Trust. When the child shall attain the age of __________________ (age of child at distribution 2) years, the Trustee shall pay over to the child __________________ (fraction of principal distributed at distribution 2) of the then-remaining balance of the principal of the Trust, and when the child shall attain the age of __________________ (age) years, the Trustee shall pay over to the child the entire remaining principal of the Trust, together with all of the accrued, accumulated and undistributed income, and the Trust shall terminate with respect to the child. G. This Trust may be terminated, in whole or in part, at any time if such action is deemed advisable and for the best interests of such Trust, or the beneficiary, in the sole discretion of the Trustee whose judgment shall be conclusive and free from question by anyone or in any court. In the event of termination, the principal of the Trust terminated, together with all of the accrued, accumulated and undistributed income, shall be paid over and distributed to the Donor's child. II. Additions to Trust. The Donor or any other person or organization may, at any time, give, transfer or bequeath to the Trust created by this instrument, either by inter vivos transfer or testamentary disposition, additional money or property of any kind acceptable to the Trustee, and in that event the additional property shall become a part of the Trust created by this instrument and shall be divided, allocated, administered and distributed as if it originally had been a part of the Trust. The Trustee may assume any obligation associated with any such property. III. Irrevocability. It is the intention of the Donor that this instrument shall constitute an irrevocable gift in Trust of all property at any time held under the Trust, and any right, title or reversionary interest in it, of any kind or description, which the Donor now has or may subsequently acquire, either by operation of law or otherwise, is renounced and relinquished forever. Any future gift of property to this Trust, whether by the Donor or any other person, shall likewise be irrevocable, and any right, title or reversionary interest in it, of any kind and description, which the Donor may have or subsequently acquire, by operation of law or otherwise, shall, by the making of such gift to this Trust, be renounced and relinquished forever. IV. Discretion of Trustee. In allotting or making any division of or payment or distribution from the Trust Fund or any portion of it for any purpose, the Trustee shall not be required to convert any property, real or personal, tangible or intangible, into money or to divide or apportion each or any item of property, but may, in the sole discretion of the Trustee, allot all or any part (including an undivided interest) of any item of property, real or personal, tangible or intangible, to any fund or to any beneficiary provided for by this instrument; or the Trustee may convert any property into any other form, it being the Donor's intent and purpose to leave all such divisions and apportionments entirely to the discretion of the Trustee with the direction merely that each fund, share, portion or part at any time created or provided for shall be constituted so that the same shall have the value, relative or absolute, designated by this instrument.
