Trustee limitation Sample Clauses
A Trustee limitation clause defines and restricts the responsibilities and liabilities of a trustee under a trust agreement. Typically, this clause specifies that the trustee is only liable for actions taken in bad faith, gross negligence, or willful misconduct, and not for honest mistakes or ordinary negligence. For example, it may state that the trustee is not personally liable for losses to the trust assets unless those losses result from the trustee's intentional wrongdoing. The core function of this clause is to protect trustees from undue personal liability, thereby encouraging qualified individuals or institutions to serve as trustees without fear of excessive legal exposure.
