Spendthrift provision. (1) A spendthrift provision is valid only if the provision restrains both voluntary and involuntary transfer of a beneficiarys interest. (2) A term of a trust providing that the interest of a beneficiary is held subject to a spendthrift trust, or words of similar import, is sufficient to restrain both voluntary and involuntary transfer of the beneficiarys interest. (3) A beneficiary may not transfer an interest in a trust in violation of a valid spendthrift provision. Except as otherwise provided in ORS 130.300 to 130.325, a creditor or assignee of a beneficiary may not reach the interest of a beneficiary or a distribution by the trustee before the distribution is received by the beneficiary. (4) A settlement agreement entered into under ORS 130.045 is not, by itself, a transfer in violation of a valid spendthrift provision.
