(a) Voting securities of a trust company held by the trust company as trust assets under a will or trust, whether registered in the trust company's own name or in the name of its nominee, may not be voted in the election of directors or on a matter affecting the compensation of directors, officers, or employees of the trust company unless
(1) under the terms of the will or trust, the manner in which the voting securities are to be voted may be determined by a donor or beneficiary of the will or trust and the donor or beneficiary actually makes the determination in the matter at issue;
(2) the terms of the will or trust expressly direct the manner in which the securities must be voted to the extent that no discretion is vested in the trust company as fiduciary; or
(3) the securities are voted solely by a person who is a joint fiduciary, but who is not a person who is affiliated with the trust company, as if the joint fiduciary were the sole fiduciary.
(b) Voting securities of a trust company that may not be voted under this section are considered to be authorized but unissued for the purpose of determining the procedures for and results of the vote under this section.
