precedent
A remainder is not defeated by the determination of a precedent estate
before the occurrence of the condition precedent on which the remainder
was limited to take effect. If such condition precedent subsequently
occurs, the remainder takes effect in the same manner and to the same
extent as if the precedent estate had continued.
