Oregon Revised Statutes Chapter 130 § 130.685 — UTC

UTC 808. Powers to direct. (1) While a trust is revocable, the trustee may follow a direction of the settlor that is contrary to the terms of the trust. (2) If the terms of a trust confer upon a person other than the settlor of a revocable trust power to direct certain actions of the trustee, the trustee shall act in accordance with an exercise of the power unless the exercise is manifestly contrary to the terms of the trust or the trustee knows the attempted exercise would constitute a serious breach of a fiduciary duty that the person holding the power owes to the beneficiaries of the trust. (3) The terms of a trust may confer upon a trustee or other person a power to direct the modification or termination of the trust. (4) A person other than a beneficiary who holds a power to direct is rebuttably presumed to be a fiduciary and is required to act in good faith with regard to the purposes of the trust and the interests of the beneficiaries. The holder of a power to direct is liable for any loss that results from breach of a fiduciary duty. [2005 c.348 §66]
