ing any will of the deceased person which may have come into his
possession, inform the personal representative or a beneficiary
named therein that he has done so, and retain the estate for delivery
to a duly appointed personal representative of the decedent or other
persons entitled thereto.

(4) On other termination. If a guardianship is terminated for
reasons other than the attainment of majority, cessation of dis-
ability, or death of the protected person, the guardian shall distrib-
ute the estate in accordance with the order of the court terminating
the guardianship.

215.    Enlargement or Limitation of Powers of Guardian.

The Court may confer on a guardian at the time of appointment
or later, in addition to the powers conferred on him by Sections 213
and 214, any other power. The Court may, at the time of appoint-
ment or later, limit the powers of a guardian otherwise conferred
by Sections 213 and 214, or previously conferred by the Court, and
may at any time relieve him of each limitation. Any limitation on
the powers of a guardian contained in a will or other instrument
which appointed a guardian should ordinarily be imposed by the
Court on the guardian. If the Court limits any power conferred on
the guardian by Section 213 or Section 214, the limitation shall be
endorsed upon his letters of appointment.

216.    Improper Exercise of power; breach of fiduciary duty.

If the exercise of power conferring the estate is improper, the
guardian shall be liable for breach of his fiduciary duty to the minor
or disabled person or to interested persons for resulting damage or
loss to the same extent as a trustee of an express trust. The rights
of purchasers and others dealing with a guardian shall be de-
termined as provided in Section 219 and may not necessarily be af-
fected by the fact that the guardian breached his fiduciary duty in
the transaction.

217.    Recording of Letters and Orders.

Letters of guardianship may be recorded in the land records of
the county of residence of the minor or disabled person and of any
other county where there is real estate in which the estate has an
interest and, when so recorded, shall have the same effect as notice
as would the recording of a conveyance from the minor or disabled
person to the guardian.

Orders of the Court modifying or terminating letters of guardian-
ship or authorizing the making of a conveyance or the doing of any
other act with respect to interests in real estate constituting part of
the estate may be recorded in like manner and with like effect.

218.    Compensation and Expenses.

The court shall allow reasonable compensation, IN RELATION
TO THE TIME AND EFFORT EXPENDED BY THE GUARDIAN,

from the estate to any guardian who has not waived his right to
compensation. A guardian is entitled to be reimbursed from the estate
