A person that in good faith delivers property to a trustee need not ensure its proper use. A person that in good faith and without knowledge that the trusteeship has terminated assists a former trustee as if the former trustee were still a trustee, or in good faith and for value deals with a former trustee as if the former trustee were still a trustee shall be protected from liability as if the former trustee were still a trustee.
