The mere fact that a trustee in a deed of trust to secure a debt due to acorporation is a stockholder, member, employee, officer or director of, orcounsel to, the corporation, does not disqualify him from exercising thepowers conferred by the trust deed nor does it render voidable a sale by suchtrustee in the exercise of the powers conferred on him by the trust deed solong as he did not participate in the corporation's decision as to the amountto be bid at the sale of the trust property.
