declare this to be my Last Will. I revoke all other wills and codicils that I may have previously
made.
Article I
My just debts and expenses of my last illness, funeral, and administration of my estate shall
be paid by my Executor from the principal of my residuary estate as soon as practicable after my
death.
Article IT
All inheritance, estate, and succession taxes (including interest and penalties thereon, but
not including any generation skipping tax) payable by reason of my death shall be paid out of and
be charged generally against the principal of my residuary estate without reimbursement from any
person. This provision is not a waiver of any right which my Executor has to claim
reimbursement for any such taxes which become payable as the result of any property over which
I have the power of appointment.

Thompson Palmer, Jr., and daughter, Bonnie Palmer Hull, in equal shares, provided they survive
me by thirty (30) days. If either of my above-named children should fail to survive me by thirty
(30) days, his or her share in my estate shall pass in equal shares to his or her living children. It is
my intent not to bequeath any of my property, real, personal, and mixed to my daughter, Margaret
June Wright, or her issue, due to the estrangement she has caused between us.

discretion:
A. to retain in the form received and to sell either at public or private sale, any real
estate or personal property except that which I specifically bequeath herein;
B. to manage real estate;
C. to invest and reinvest in all forms of property without being confined to legal
investments, and without regard to the principal of diversification;

beneficiary;

return prior to my death;
G. to make distributions in cash or in kind, or in both, and to determine the value of
any such property;
H. to employ any attorney, investment advisor, or other agent deemed necessary by
my Executor, and to pay from my estate reasonable compensation for all their services; and
I. to conduct along with or with others, any business in which I am engaged in or
have an interest in at the time of my death.
Article V
I nominate, constitute, and appoint F. Thompson Palmer, Jr., Executor of my Last Will
and Testament. In the event of his renunciation, death, resignation, or inability to act for any
reason whatsoever as my Executor, I nominate, constitute, and appoint Bonnie Palmer Hull to act
as my Executor. In the event of the renunciation, death, resignation, or inability ofF. Thompson
Palmer, Jr., and Bonnie Palmer Hull to act for any reason whatsoever as my Executor, I nominate,
constitute, and appoint James Dixon Hull, III, to act as my Executor. I hereby relieve my
Executor, whether original, substitute, or successor, from the necessity of posting security in
connection with his or her duties as such in any jurisdiction in which he or she may be called upon
to act so far as I am able by law to do so. My Executor shall receive reasonable compensation for
services rendered to my estate.
