A quick definition of object of the power:

Object of the Power: The object of the power is the person who can receive something that is being appointed to them. This person is also known as the permissible appointee. They are the ones who can benefit from a power of appointment, which is the ability to assign property to someone else. The object of the power is important because they are the ones who will ultimately receive the property that is being appointed to them.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: The object of the power refers to a person who can receive the benefit of a power of appointment. This person is also known as the permissible appointee, as they are the one to whom appointive property may be assigned under a power of appointment.

Examples: If a person has a power of appointment over a trust, they can appoint the trust property to a permissible appointee. For instance, if the trust was created for the benefit of the settlor's children, the settlor may have the power to appoint the trust property to any of their children or grandchildren. In this case, the children and grandchildren are the objects of the power.

Another example is when a person creates a will and gives someone the power to appoint the property to a beneficiary. The person with the power of appointment can choose who will receive the property, and the chosen beneficiary is the object of the power.

These examples illustrate how the object of the power is the person who can receive the benefit of a power of appointment. They are the ones who can be assigned the appointive property under the power of appointment.
