Section 6.4. - Vacancy in Office If there is a vacancy in the Trustees and no successor Trustee is designated pursuant to Section 7.1 who is willing to act, the legally competent adult Beneficiary (or a majority in beneficial interest of the legally competent adult Beneficiaries if there are multiple Beneficiaries) then entitled or permitted to receive income from such trust shall designate a successor Trustee by an instrument in writing delivered to the designated Trustee. If the legally competent adult Beneficiaries do not designate a successor Trustee within sixty days after receipt of notice of such vacancy or if there is no legally competent adult Beneficiary of such trust, then a successor Trustee shall be named by order of a court of competent jurisdiction. All of the fees and expenses of the Trustees (Including attorneys' fees) attributable to the appointment of a successor Trustee of a trust shall be paid from the assets of such trust. Section 6.5. - Elimination of Bond 25 GJ 00025 EFTA00099327 No bond or other security shall be required Many Trustee hereunder in any jurisdiction. Section 6.6. - Exculpation and Indemnification of the Trustees No one serving as the Trustee of any trust under this Agreement shall be accountable or responsible to any person interested in any trust hereunder for the manner in which the Trustees shall in good faith exercise any discretionary authority or any power of the Trustees.

In the absence of proof by affirmative evidence to the contrary, each Trustee shall be deemed to have acted within the scope of the Trustees' authority, to have exercised reasonable care, diligence, and prudence and to have acted impartially as to all interested persons. A Trustee shall not be liable for the acts or defaults of another Trustee. In the event a legal action is brought against any individual serving as the Trustee of any trust under this Agreement, all legal fees and related expenses inclined in connection with the defense of such legal action shall be paid by such trust without court authorization; provided, however, that (a) no such payment shall (or shall continue to) be made if a court enters an order prohibiting such payment, and (b) such Trustee shall refund to the trust any such payments that previously had been made if a court enters an order directing that such payments be refunded, or if a court concludes that such Trustee acted in bad faith.

Furthermore, pursuant to Section 1107, Tide 15, of the Virgin Islands Code, I hereby relieve the Trustees and any successor Trustees, to the extent allowable, from any and all duties, restrictions, and liabilities which would otherwise be imposed upon the Trustees by Chapter 57, Title 15, Virgin Islands Code. This Section 7.7 of this Article VII shall not be deemed a waiver of any and all other rights, powers, or restrictions otherwise granted to the Trustees in this Agreement. Article VII Miscellaneous Provisions Section 7.1. - Representation of Person Under a Disability To the extent allowed by law, where a party to any proceeding with respect to any trust hereunder has the same interest as a person under a disability, legal process shall not be required on the person under a disability.

Reg. section 301.7701-7(c)(4)(D), if both a United States court and a foreign court are able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust, the trust meets the court test.

The Trustees' determination to transfer the sinus of any mist under this Agreement shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed, witnessed and acknowledged by the Trustees in the same manner as would be required for a deed. The Trustees arc authorized to take whatever actions arc necessary to effect such a transfer of sinus. If judicial authorization or approval is required to effect such a transfer of sinus, I intend and desire that the appropriate court accept the determination of the Trustees concerning the transfer of the sinus of such trust even if one or more Beneficiaries disagree with such determination. From and after the Trustees' transfer of the sims of a trust pursuant to this Section 7.3 of this Article VII the administration of such trust shall be governed by the law of the new sims of such trust Section 7.4. - Definition of Terms Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, as used in this Agreement, A.
