Replacing the trustee with another for some reason; maybe the trustee gets old and finds the job burdensome.

No, substitution of trustee and termination of trustee are not the same. Substitution of trustee refers to the process of replacing one trustee with another while maintaining the trust's existence and terms.

Each process has different legal implications and outcomes for the trust and its beneficiaries.
