Where this section sits in the code

    (1) A corporate trustee administering a trust may continue the term of a portion of the

    trust so long as the period of the continuation does not extend beyond the term

    allowable under KRS 381.224, 381.225, and 381.226 that is applicable to the trust.

    (2) Subject to KRS 381.224, 381.225, and 381.226, the portion of the trust continued

    by the corporate trustee shall continue for the life of the remainder beneficiary of

    the trust, upon the same terms and conditions as provided in the trust, for the term

    preceding the life beneficiary's death. In addition, commencing with the death of the

    life beneficiary, the remainder beneficiary may withdraw that portion of the trust

    that has been continued by giving written notice to the corporate trustee. However,

    each year five percent (5%) of the remainder beneficiary's right of withdrawal shall

    lapse on December 31, and the lapses shall be cumulative.

    (b) Has been pledged to secure a debt.

    (4) This section shall apply to any trust that was irrevocable on January 1, 1976.
