SDCL § 55-16-8: Powers and rights of transferor--Effect on qualified disposition.

A qualified disposition is subject to §§ 55-16-9 to 55-16-14, inclusive, notwithstanding a transferor's retention of any or all of the powers and rights described in subdivision 55-16-2(2) and the transferor's service as trust advisor pursuant to § 55-16-5.
