QTIPS and QDOTS. A Depositor (or following the death of the Depositor, the Beneficiary) may designate as Beneficiary of his or her Account a trust for the benefit of his or her surviving spouse that is intended to satisfy the conditions of Sections 2056(b)(7) or 2056A of the Code (a “Spousal Trust”). In that event, if the Depositor (or following the death of the Depositor, the Beneficiary) is survived by his or her spouse, the following provisions shall apply to the Account, from and after the death of the Depositor (or following the death of the Depositor, the Beneficiary) until the death of the Depositor’s (or following the death of the Depositor, the Beneficiary’s) surviving spouse: (i) all of the income of the Account shall, at the direction of the trustee(s) of such Spousal Trust, be paid to the Spousal Trust annually or at more frequent intervals and (ii) no person or entity shall have the power to assign any part of the Account to any person other than the Spousal Trust. To the extent permitted by Sections 401(a)(9) and 408A(c)(5) of the Code, as determined by the trustee(s) of the Spousal Trust, the surviving spouse of a Depositor who has designated a Spousal Trust as the Depositor’s Beneficiary may be treated as the Depositor’s “designated beneficiary” for purposes of the distribution requirements of those Code sections. The Custodian shall have no responsibility to determine whether such treatment is appropriate.
