(a) All qualified beneficiaries of the second trust consent to the increase in a signed
record; or
(b) The increase is approved by the court.
(2) If a first-trust instrument does not specify an authorized fiduciary's compensation, the
fiduciary may not exercise the decanting power to increase the fiduciary's compensation above
the compensation permitted by the laws of this state unless:
(a) All qualified beneficiaries of the second trust consent to the increase in a signed
record; or
(b) The increase is approved by the court.
(3) A change in an authorized fiduciary's compensation which is incidental to other
changes made by the exercise of the decanting power is not an increase in the fiduciary's
compensation for purposes of subsections (1) and (2) of this section.
