July 15, 1972 Senate Bill 533 - 109th General Assembly (A) The governing instrument of a trust described in division (A) of section 109.231 of the Revised Code may be amended to permit the trust to acquire the characteristics of a trust described in section 664 (D)(1) or (2) of the internal revenue code of 1954, or to conform to the requirements of, or to obtain benefits available under, section 507, 508, or 509 of the internal revenue code of 1954. Such amendment may be made by the trustee with the approval of the attorney general, of the trustor, and, if one or more beneficiaries are named in the governing instrument of such trust, of each named beneficiary.

If one or more of said required approvals is not obtained, the trustee may apply to the court having jurisdiction over such trust for approval of such amendment. Said governing instrument may also be amended in any respect and by any method set forth therein or as otherwise provided by law. (B) Nothing in this section impairs the rights and powers of the courts or the attorney general of this state with respect to any trust. (C) For the purposes of sections 109.231 and 109.232 of the Revised Code, all references to sections of the internal revenue code of 1954 include all amendments or reenactments thereof.
