Subsection 75B-3-106(2)(a):
(a) a trust director has the same fiduciary duty and liability in the exercise or nonexercise of the
power:

circumstances; or
(ii) if the power is held jointly with a trustee or another trust director, as a cotrustee in a like
position and under similar circumstances; and

(b) the terms of the trust may vary the director's duty or liability to the same extent the terms
of the trust could vary the duty or liability of a trustee in a like position and under similar
circumstances.
(2) Unless the terms of a trust provide otherwise, if a trust director is licensed, certified, or
otherwise authorized or permitted by law other than this chapter to provide health care in the
ordinary course of the director's business or practice of a profession, to the extent the director
acts in that capacity, the director has no duty or liability under this chapter.
(3) The terms of a trust may impose a duty or liability on a trust director in addition to the duties
and liability described in this section.
