The powers granted to the Trustees may be exercised in whole or in part, from time to time, and shall be deemed to be supplementary to and not exclusive of the general powers of trustees pursuant to law, and shall include all powers necessary to carry them into effect.  

4.  LIMITATION ON POWERS.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no powers enumerated or accorded to trustees generally pursuant to law shall be construed to enable the Grantor, or the Trustees or either of them, or any other person, to sell, purchase, exchange, or otherwise deal with or dispose of all or any part of the corpus or income of the trusts for less than an adequate consideration in money or moneys worth, or to enable the Grantor to borrow all or any part of the corpus or income of the trusts, directly or indirectly, without adequate interest or security.

5.  CORPUS AND INCOME.  The Trustees shall have the power to determine the allocation of receipts between corpus and income and to apportion extraordinary and share dividends between corpus and income.
