        Except as otherwise provided in section 7738 (relating to

            (1)  A trust may be created for a noncharitable purpose

        selected by the trustee. The trust may not be enforced for
        more than 21 years.
            (2)  A trust authorized by this section may be enforced
        by a person appointed in the trust instrument or, if no
        person is so appointed, by a person appointed by the court.
            (3)  Property of a trust authorized by this section may
        be applied only to its intended use, except to the extent the
        court determines that the value of the trust property exceeds
        the amount required for the intended use. Except as otherwise
        provided in the trust instrument, property not required for
        the intended use must be distributed to the settlor if then
        living, otherwise to the settlor's successors in interest.
