LAST Will AND TESTAMENT
OF
ROBERT D. HOWARD
I, Robert D. Howard, of South Middleton Township, (26 Greenfield Drive,
Carlisle, PA 17013), Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, being of sound and disposing
mind, memory and understanding, do hereby make, publish and declare this as and for
my Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking and making void any and all Wills and
Codicils heretofore made. ~:;;

I direct the payment of my just debts and funeral expenses as soo~~ m~
death as may be convenient.-) Sjj ==
:S2 --{ N
I direct that all federal and Pennsylvania estate taxes, Pennsylvania inheritaHCe
taxes, and generation-skipping transfer tax payable as a result of my death, not limited
to taxes attributable to property passing under this Will, shall be paid by my Executor
from my residuary estate, including any part of my residuary estate that otherwise
qualifies for a deduction for federal estate tax purposes. I direct my Executor not to
seek reimbursement for any tax so paid from any beneficiary under this Will, heir of
mine, or other transferee of property included in my gross estate.
SECOND
I declare that I am now the widower of Jean A. Howard. My wife and I had three
(3) children, to wit: Patricia Miller, of 170 Kallow Drive, Bedford, Pennsylvania 15522;
Deborah Baish, of 1415 Pheasant Drive, Carlisle, PA 17013; and Sandy Fry, of 1673
Walnut Bottom Road, Newville, Pennsylvania 17241. I have no deceased children nor
any other children living by my deceased wife or otherwise.
THIRD
All the rest, residue and remainder of my estate, real, personal and mixed, and
wheresoever the same may be situate, I give, devise and bequeath, in equal shares,
per stirpes and not per capita, unto such of my children as shall survive me by ninety
(90) days, but should any of them fail to so survive me then the share such deceased
child of mine would have received shall pass to such of his or her issue as shall survive
me by a period of ninety (90) days, per stirpes, and if there be no such issue the same
shall lapse and be added to the remaining share or shares. At the present time I have
three children, as aforementioned.
FOURTH
Should any person less than twenty-one (21) years of age be entitled to a
distribution out of the residuary of my estate pursuant to Paragraph Third herein, I direct
such share shall be paid to my oldest living child, as Guardian of the estate of such
person, but if he or she should decline, cease or be unable to act as such, then in such
event, I nominate, constitute and appoint my next oldest living child, as alternate or
successor Guardian of the estate of such person. I further direct that no said Guardian
shall be required to post any bond to secure the faithful performance of his or her or its
duties in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or in any other jurisdiction, and I authorize
and direct said Guardian of the estate of such person to receive and to invest said
distribution and to pay so much of the income arising thereon together with so much of
the principal thereof as in its opinion is necessary or desirable to be expended for the
Last Will and Testament of Robert D. Howard
Page 10f3
proper maintenance, support and education of such person, and upon such person
attaining twenty-one (21) years of age, to pay the then remaining principal together with
any undistributed income to such person.
FIFTH
I hereby nominate, constitute and appoint my said daughter, Patricia Miller, as
Executrix of this my Last Will and Testament. In the event of the renunciation, death,
resignation or inability to act for any reason whatsoever of my said daughter Patricia
Miller, I nominate, constitute and my daughter Deborah Baish, as Executrix of this my
Last Will and Testament. In the event of the renunciation, death, resignation or inability
to act for any reason whatsoever of my said daughter Deborah Baish, I nominate,
constitute and my daughter Sandy Fry, as Executrix of this my Last Will and Testament.
I further direct that no bond or other security shall be required of any Executor or
Executrix appointed in this Will for the performance of his, her or its duties in any
jurisdiction in which he, she or it may be called upon to act. The terms Executor or
Executrix may be used interchangeably in this Will and shall refer to any Executor or
Executrix appointed in this will, or any other Administrator appointed by a court of
competent jurisdiction.
SIXTH
In addition to, and not in limitation of, the powers conferred by law or by other
provisions of this Will, my Executrix shall have the following powers, each of which may
be exercised from time to time by my Executrix in her sole discretion:
(a) To retain in the form received, and to sell either at public or private sale, or
to distribute in kind, any real or personal property.
(b) To manage both real and personal property.
(c) To invest and reinvest in all forms of property, notwithstanding the fact that
any or all of the investments made are of a character or size which but for
this expressed authority would not be considered proper for an Executrix.
(d) To exercise any option or rights arising from the ownership of investments.
(e) To compromise claims without court approval and without the consent of
any beneficiary.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and seal to this my Last
Will and Testament, written on three (3) pages (including notary page), this 1ih day of
September, 2003.
