(Convening beneficiaries' meetings)
A beneficiaries' meeting shall be convened by either the Trustee or the Trust Supervisor.

Within fifteen (15) days from the written request described in the preceding paragraph, if the person having the right to convene the beneficiaries' meeting fails to convene or cannot convene a beneficiaries' meeting due to any reasons, such beneficiaries with three (3) percent or more of the total Principal Holding may convene a beneficiaries' meeting after the competent authority grants its approval.
All the beneficiaries shall be informed of the notice of a beneficiaries' meeting twenty (20) days prior to the date of the beneficiaries' meeting.

(Voting rights)
Resolutions of a beneficiaries' meeting, unless otherwise provided for in this Act or other agreements in the SPT contract, require a quorum of beneficiaries holding at least one-half of all voting rights and a majority of all votes of beneficiaries present in the meeting.
