DEWEY I, FREDERICK B. DEWEY, of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, do hereby make this my Last Will and Testament, revoking any and all former Wills and Codicils made by me. FIRST: I am not married. I have two children: Frederick B. Dewey, Jr. (born: June 23, 1949) and Kenneth W. Dewey (born: April 9, 1953). These children are described in this Will as "my children," or as "a child of mine." Any person born to or adopted by a child of mine is described in this Will as "my issue." Provided, however, no adopted person shall benefit hereunder unless the order or decree of adoption is entered before such adopted person attains the age of twenty-one (21) years. SECOND: I give my tangible personal property and all casualty insurance that I am carrying on said tangible personal property to my children. I have complete confidence that my children or my Executor will honor any written instructions that I may leave with regard to said tangible personal property. Any such property not so distributed shall be sold, and the proceeds ("') Q :c oq; <1~ f- 0: ~. LLO 0(..) ::":::0') ffi 2; _ ---! <.c. (. u&~~. 0:3 u ~~L8~1 r- -' => --, r-- =:> = c--.. -1- " added to my residuary estate to pass as hereafter described. THIRD: I give, devise, and bequeath Eighty-Five Thousand Dollars ($85,000) to Mary Engle. If Mary Engle does not survive me, this gift shall lapse. FOURTH: I give, devise, and bequeath the rest, residue and remainder of my estate, real and personal, to my children, Frederick B. Dewey, Jr. and Kenneth W. Dewey, in equal shares, per stirpes. FIFTH: If any beneficiary and I should die under such circumstances as would render it doubtful whether the benefi- ciary or I died first, then it shall be conclusively presumed for the purposes of this my Will that said beneficiary prede- ceased me. SIXTH: I name my sons, Frederick B. Dewey, Jr. and Kenneth W. Dewey, or the survivor of them, as my Co-Executors. I direct that my Co-Executors serve without bond in any jurisdic- tion in which called upon to act. (2) Except as otherwise provided herein, if my Executor or any successor as herein defined should fail to qualify as Executor hereunder, or for any reason should cease to act in such capacity, the successor or substitute Executor ~~1~<-- ~ -2- shall be some bank or trust company with trust powers, which successor or substitute Executor shall be designated in a written instrument filed with the court having jurisdiction over the probate of my estate. (3) For services as Executor, my Executor shall receive reasonable compensation. SEVENTH: (1) I give to any Executor named in this Will or any Codicil hereto or to any successor or substitute Executor all of the powers enumerated in this Will and all of the powers applicable by law to fiduciaries in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and in particular through the Pennsylvania Probate, Estates and Fiduciaries Code, as effective and as in effect on the date hereof, during the administration and until the completion of the distribution of my estate. I direct that all such powers shall be construed in the broadest possible manner and shall be exercisable without court authorization. (2) In determining the federal estate and income tax liabilities of my estate, my Executor shall have discretion to select the valuation date and to determine whether any or all of the allowable administration expenses in my estate shall be used as federal estate tax deductions or as federal income tax ~..LdrL-, -3- deductions. (3) My Executor is authorized and empowered to acquire and to retain, either permanently or for such period of time as my Executor may determine, any assets, including the capital stock of any closely held corporation, whether such assets are or are not of the character approved or authorized by law for investment by fiduciaries and whether such assets do or do not represent an overconcentration in one investment. (4) My Executor is authorized and empowered to disclaim any interest, in whole or in part, of which I or my Executor may be the beneficiary, devisee, or legatee, by executing an appropriate instrument (in accordance with section 2518 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and supplemented, or such similar section as may then be in effect) . (5) My Executor is authorized and empowered to sell at public or private sale, or exchange, and to encumber or lease, for any period of time, any real or personal property and to give options to buy or lease any such property. Addition- ally, my Executor is authorized and empowered to compromise claims, to borrow from anyone (including a fiduciary hereunder) and to pledge property as security therefor, to make loans to ~L.Jd!LJ -4- and to buy property from anyone (including a fiduciary or beneficiary hereunder); provided that any such loans shall be adequately secured and at a fair interest rate. (6) My Executor is authorized and empowered to allocate property, charges on property, receipts and income among and between principal or income, or partly to each, without regard to any law defining principal and income. EIGHTH: No interest of any beneficiary under this Will, any Codicil hereto, shall be subject to anticipation or to voluntary or involuntary alienation. NINTH: All estate, inheritance, succession and other death taxes imposed or payable by reason of my death and interest and penalties thereon with respect to all property comprising my gross estate for death tax purposes, whether or not such property passes under this Will, shall be paid out of the residue of my estate, as if such taxes were expenses of administration, without apportionment or right of reimbursement. I authorize my Executor to pay all such taxes at such time or times as deemed advisable. ~Llj~7 -5- IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have set my hand and seal on this my Last Will and Testament this 25th day of October 2002.
