Qualified Trust of an individual means a trust (including, without limitation, a voting trust) established by such individual if and as long as:
(a) the trust is held for the benefit of one or more Family Beneficiaries and any Charitable Organizations and for the benefit of no other Person; provided that such trust may grant general or special powers of appointment to such individual or one or more Family Beneficiaries and may permit trust assets (except as set forth in Section 1.78(b) below) to be used to pay taxes, legacies (including those that are made outright or in trust) and other obligations of the trust or the estate of such individual or such one or more Family Beneficiaries payable by reason of the death of such individual or such one or more Family Beneficiaries; and
(b) such trust prohibits (i) the Transfer of Class B Shares to any Person other than a Permitted Transferee of such trust under the Certificate of Incorporation of each Company whose Class B Shares the Partnership owns and (ii) the Transfer of Partnership Interests to any Person other than Authorized Transferees of such trust. The restriction in subclause (ii) of the prior sentence shall not be interpreted to restrict a beneficiary who is a member of a Family Group from directing that any Partnership Interests he or she is otherwise entitled to receive under such trust be instead transferred to one or more other Qualified Trusts that are Authorized Transferees of the trust at issue. In addition, (a) a Qualified Trust of a surviving spouse of a Family Group Head or of a Lineal Descendant of a Family Group Head to which Partnership Interests are Transferred in accordance with Section 8.4 shall cease to be a Qualified Trust upon the remarriage of such spouse to an individual other than a Family Group Head or a Lineal Descendant of a Family Group Head, and (b) a Qualified Trust of a spouse of a Family Group Head or a of Lineal Descendant of a Family Group Head that is a Partner as of the date of this Agreement or to which Partnership Interests are Transferred in accordance with Section 8.4 after the date of this Agreement shall cease to be a Qualified Trust upon legal separation, divorce or dissolution of such spouse’s marriage to such Family Group Head or Lineal Descendant. A Qualified Trust shall continue to be a Qualified Trust upon the termination of the trust and during a reasonable period of administration unless by reason of such termination the restrictions set forth in this Section 1.78 would not be met. The General Partners shall be furnished with a copy of the trust instrument or any other governing documents or disclosures of beneficial interest which the General Partners may reasonably request to confirm that the trust in question is or remains a Qualified Trust. If the General Partners do not receive the requested governing documents or other disclosures of beneficial interest within sixty (60) days following the written request therefor, the trust shall cease to be a “Qualified Trust”. A trust shall cease to be a Qualified Trust and shall be deemed, to the extent it holds Partnership Interests, to become a Former Partner, immediately prior to any event or lapse of time which causes such trust to no longer be a Qualified Trust as defined in this Section 1.78.
Qualified Trustee means (i) a corporation, national bank, national banking association or a trust company, organized and doing business under the laws of any state or the United States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and to accept the trust conferred, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority, (ii) an institution insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or (iii) an institution whose long-term senior unsecured debt is rated either of the then in effect top two rating categories of each of the applicable Rating Agencies.
Qualified beneficiary means a beneficiary who, on the date the beneficiary's qualification is determined:
Income beneficiary means a person to whom net income of a trust is or may be payable.
Current beneficiary means a beneficiary that on the date the beneficiary’s qualification is determined is a distributee or permissible distributee of trust income or principal. The term includes the holder of a presently exercisable general power of appointment but does not include a person that is a beneficiary only because the person holds any other power of appointment.
