7.Transfer of Property.

 

Without limiting the generality of any of the foregoing provisions of this Trust instrument, or any supplement or amendment thereto, no deed or other transfer by the Trustee of any or all of the assets of the Trust shall be subject to question by reason of the fact that the Grantee or Transferee or Grantees or Transferees include or constitute some or all of the Trustees and it shall be conclusively presumed in favor of anyone dealing with the Trustees or Grantees or otherwise with respect to the trust property, that such deed or other instrument of transfer has been duly authorised by the beneficiaries, is binding upon each of then and was properly executed by the Trustees hereunder.
