Description

Custodian Agreement between First American Insurance Portfolios, Inc. and U.S. Bank National Association dated December 8, 1999. 17 pages North Carolina Custodian Agreement is a legal document that defines the specific rights, responsibilities, and obligations between a custodian and a beneficiary regarding the management and control of assets for the beneficiary's benefit. This agreement is widely used in North Carolina to establish a custodial relationship, typically involving minors. In the state of North Carolina, there are generally two types of Custodian Agreements: 1. Uniform Transfers to Minors Act (TMA) Custodian Agreement: This type of agreement is based on the North Carolina version of the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act. It allows an adult, known as the custodian, to manage and oversee assets on behalf of a minor beneficiary until they reach a certain age, typically 18 or 21. The custodian holds, invests, and distributes the assets for the benefit of the minor, typically using their best judgment and in accordance with the TMA guidelines. 2. Uniform Gifts to Minors Act (UGA) Custodian Agreement: Similar to TMA, this agreement is based on the North Carolina version of the Uniform Gifts to Minors Act. It enables an adult custodian to handle and administer gifts or financial assets for the benefit of a minor beneficiary. Unlike TMA, UGA has a fixed age of transfer, which is typically 18 years old. Upon reaching the specified age, the beneficiary gains complete control over the assets. Both types of North Carolina Custodian Agreements ensure that minors receive the intended benefits and provide a framework for custodians to manage these assets prudently until the beneficiaries reach the designated age. These agreements typically cover vital information such as the custodian's responsibilities, investment discretion, reporting requirements, withdrawal provisions, and the release of assets to minor beneficiaries at the appropriate age. When drafting a North Carolina Custodian Agreement, it is crucial to consult with legal professionals who have expertise in estate planning and family law. This helps to ensure compliance with North Carolina laws and guarantees that the agreement aligns with the specific needs and objectives of all parties involved.
