all administrative functions of the trust, as well as the assets
in the depository of Trustee, are situate in Cumberland County,

activities in the trust have been diminished by reason of age and
infirmity, and in order to afford Trustee the operation of the
trust under the provisions set forth therein, Settlor hereby
instructs that a specific designation of the situs of the trust
shall be amended so that Article VII-Situs shall be amended to
read as follows:
VII. SITUS This agreement and the trust

and distributed in accordance with the laws

Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, by the Trustee,
Dauphin Deposit Bank and Trust Company, whose
office is located at 2 West High street,
Carlisle, pennsylvania 17013.

3
.
....
I,
<.
"
"
\
basis, the administration of these trusts Incurs twice the administrative costs and expenses
that would arise if one consolidated trust were created to administer the two (2) trusts for
the grandchildren. These excessive and duplicate expenditures will continue until the
termination of each trust when each grandchild shall have attained the age of thirty-five (35)
years.

shall be one trust administered for equal benefit of each of the two (2) grandchildren
containing each beneficiary's share of the assets of both the Richard E. Childs Revocable
Trust and the Elizabeth Childs Revocable Trust. The remaining trust shall be administered
by your Petitioner as Trustee under subsection (b) of Article V-DisDositive Provisions of the
Elizabeth Childs Revocable Trust.
15. Without the requested reformation, the true and complete Intent of Richard
E. Childs and Elizabeth Childs for their grandchildren will be Impracticable, since annual
4
,
\
current costs and expenses to administer each of the two (2) original trusts will be excessive
and wasteful.
16. This Court has the authority to terminate a trust, In whole or In part, In
accordance with 20 Pa,C.S.A. A6102(a), If it Is satisfied that the original purpose of the
settlor Is Impracticable of fulfillment and that the termination or partial termination will
more nearly approximate the full and complete Intention of the settlor to preserve the trust
assets for the financial benefit of the two (2) grandchildren.
17. The estimated value of the trusts, when consolidated after payment of the
referenced bequests to Richard E. Chllds,Jr., as well as payment of taxes and administration
expenses, will be In excess of $500,000,00.
18. Copies of this Petition have been provided to all beneficiaries of the trusts,
Including Geoffrey A. Childs and Valerie L. Childs, the two (2) grandchildren. Both of the
grandchildren, who are of the majority age, consent to this Petition. Copies of the their
Consents are attached hereto and marked Exhibit "B".

AMENDMENT
TO
REVOCABLE TRUST AGREEMENT
DATED JANUARY 24. 1992
THIS Amendment is to the Revocable Trust Agreement, under
date of January 24, 1992, betwecn ELIZABETH CHILDS, designated as
Settlor, and DAUPHIN DEPOSIT BANK AND TRUST COMPANY, designated
as Trustee, which Agreement, under Article XI thereof, provides
for Settlor to "revoke, in whole or in part, or to alter or amend
this instrument (Revocable Trust Agreement), or any amendment
hereof, in any respect to all or any party." Article XI of said
Agreement further provides, as follows "revocations, alterations,
or amendment shall, by an instrument in writing, be signed and
acknowledged by Settlor and shall take affect only upon delivery
to Trustee during the lifetime of Settlor."
The amendment which the Settlor directs to be made to the
said Revocable Trust Agreement is prompted by the fact that over
the term of this trust, as well as previous trusts of which this
eurrent trust is a successor, the trust has been administered by
the Trustee, Dauphin Deposit Bank and Trust Company, through its
Carlisle, Office, located in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, and
all administrative functions of the trust, as well as the assets
in the depository of Trustee, are situate in Cumberland County,
Pennsylvania, for administration and maintenance. Settlor's
activities in the trust have been diminished by reason of age and
infirmity, and in order to afford Trustee the operation of the
trust under the provisions set forth therein, Settlor hereby
instructs that a specific designation of the situs of the trust
shall be amended so that Article VII-Situs shall be amended to
read as follows:
VII. SITUS This agrecment and the trust
hereunder shall be administered, interpreted
and distributed in accordance with the laws
of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. For the
purpose of the administration of this trust,
and the maintenance of the corpus thereof,
this trust shall hereafter be administered
and maintained in the County of Cumberland,
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, by the Trustee,
Dauphin Deposit Bank and Trust Company, whose
office is located at 2 West High street,
Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013.
