Oklahoma Discretionary and Special Needs Trust Act.

The following provisions apply to all trusts created pursuant to

the Oklahoma Discretionary and Special Needs Trust Act:

1. A creditor shall not attach, exercise, or otherwise reach an

interest of a beneficiary or any other person who holds an

unconditional or conditional removal or replacement power over a

trustee. Further, this power is personal to the beneficiary and may

not be exercised by the creditors of the beneficiary, nor may a

court direct any person to exercise this power;

2. A creditor shall not reach an interest of a beneficiary nor

otherwise compel a distribution because the beneficiary is then

serving as a trustee or a cotrustee;

3. If a party challenges a settlor or the influence of a

beneficiary over a trust, the following factors, alone or in

combination, shall not be considered dominion and control over a

trust:

a. a beneficiary serving as a trustee or a cotrustee as

described in paragraph 2 of this section,

b. the settlor or a beneficiary holds an unrestricted

power to remove or replace a trustee,

c. the settlor or a beneficiary, as provided in the

applicable trust instrument, is:

(1) a trust administrator,

(2) a trust protector,

(3) a special trustee, or

(4) a general partner of a partnership, a manager of

a limited liability company, an officer of a

corporation, or any other managerial function of

any other type of entity, and part or all of the

trust property consists of an interest in said

entity,

d. a person related by blood or adoption to a settlor or

a beneficiary is appointed as trustee, or

4. The settlor or any beneficiary shall not be deemed to be the

combination, shall not be sufficient evidence for a court to

conclude that the settlor controls a trustee or is the alter ego of

a trustee:

a. any combination of the factors listed in paragraph 3

of this section,

b. occasional occurrences in which the settlor or a

beneficiary may have signed checks, made disbursements

or executed other documents related to the trust as a

trustee, when in fact the settlor or a beneficiary was

not a trustee,

beneficiaries, or

d. making requests to the trustee to hold, purchase, or

sell any trust property.
