KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS, that I, FRANCIS B. SMITH, cu~ }~ ~~'. .-~ =`~-'
residing in Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, bend m good ~ ~~
`,~-,
w
health and of sound and disposing memory do hereby make, declare and publish this as my Last
Will and Testament, hereby revoking all former Wills and Codicils heretofore made by me.
FIRST: I direct that all of my debts not barred by the statute of limitations,
expenses of my last illness, funeral expenses, costs of administration and claims allowed in the
administration of my estate shall be paid by my Executor hereinafter named, from my estate as
soon after my decease as shall be found convenient.
SECOND: I bequeath my automobiles, household and personal effects and other
tangible personalty of like nature (not including cash or securities), together with any existing
insurance thereon, to my wife, MARY LEE SMITH, if she survives me by thirty days. Should my
wife not be living on the thirty-first day after my death, I bequeath such tangible personalty and
insurance thereon to such of my children as are living on the thirty-first day after my death, to be
divided among them by my Executor with due regard for their personal preferences in as nearly
equal shares as practical. Any such article allotted to a minor may, as my Executor thinks
advisable, either be delivered to the minor or any person to hold for the minor, or be sold and the
proceeds paid to the Trustee as hereinafter provided in ARTICLE FOURTH hereof.
THIRD: If my wife, MARY LEE SMITH, survives me (and I direct that for the
purpose of this Item THIRD she shall be deemed to have survived me unless it appears
unmistakable that she predeceased me) and if the federal estate tax due because of my death will be
reduced by making this gift for her benefit, I devise and bequeath to my wife, MARY LEE SMITH,
-Y :n..c~-c-i.~'~ ch~cc~-~
absolutely, the least amount (based upon values as finally determined for federal estate tax
purposes) as shall be needed for the federal estate tax unlimited marital deduction to reduce the
federal estate tax to the lowest possible figure after full use of all other deductions and credits
allowable in calculating the federal estate tax, except that such amount shall be calculated without
regard to the augmenting of my taxable estate by reason ofgeneration-skipping transfers and
without regard for any credit for state death taxes that would not otherwise be payable.
Accordingly, I direct that:
A. If the marital deduction or any similar benefit is allowable with respect to
any property, including property held by entireties, which my wife has received prior to my death or
at my death will receive otherwise that pursuant to this ITEM THIRD, the value of such property
shall be taken into consideration in calculating the size of the gift under this ITEM THIRD.
B. No property ineligible for the marital deduction or any similar benefit shall
be distributed to this gift for my wife, MARY LEE SMITH, pursuant to this ITEM THIRD.
C. Either cash or investments or both may be allocated to the gift under this
ITEM THIRD.
D. Any property allocated under this ITEM THIRD in kind shall be valued at
the value at which it is finally included in my gross estate for federal estate tax purposes, provided
that the aggregate market value thereof on the date of allocation (plus the value as finally
determined for federal estate tax purposes of all other property qualifying for the marital deduction)
is at least equal to the dollar value of the marital deduction as finally determined for federal estate
tax purposes.
1. My residence at 1781 North Meadow Drive, Mechanicsburg,
Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, together with any insurance policies on such real property, to
my daughter, NADINE ANN GRAVER, if such residence is still owned by me at the time of my
death. If my daughter, NADINE ANN GRAVER does not survive me, then my residence shall be
sold and the proceeds shall be added to and distributed as part of the residue under Subpazagraph D.
4 below.
2. The sum of One Hundred Thousand ($100,000.00) Dollars to my
daughter, ELLEN F. SMITH NEBRE, if the distribution of my residence to my daughter, NADINE
ANN GRAVER, under Subpazagraph D. 1 is completed.
3. The sum of One Hundred Thousand ($100,000.00) Dollars to my
daughter, JANICE L. LeCLAINCHE, if the distribution of my residence to my daughter, NADINE
ANN GRAVER, under Subpazagraph D. 1 is completed.
4. The remaining trust property shall be divided into as many shazes as
shall be necessary to create one equal share for each of my then living daughters, and one equal
shaze for each of my deceased daughters who has then living descendants. The shaze of each of my
daughters shall be distributed as follows:
a. Distribution of the Trust Shaze for NADINE ANN
GRAVER. The Trust Shaze for NADINE ANN GRAVER shall be distributed to her
outright if she survives me. If my daughter, NADINE ANN GRAVER, does not survive
me, her Trust Share shall be held IN TRUST for her son, PHILIP MISTRETTA IV, and
administered and distributed as follows:
1. Distributions of Net Income
My Trustee, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall apply to, or for
the benefit of PHILIP MISTRETTA, IV as much of the net income
from his trust share as my Trustee deems advisable for the health,
education and maintenance of PHILIP MISTRETTA, IV.
Any net income not distributed shall be added to principal and held
under the provisions that follow.
2. Distributions of Principal

MISTRETTA, IV for:

or professional practice.
Any other extraordinary opportunity or expense deemed by
my Trustee to be in the best interests of PHILIP
MISTRETTA, IV.
._ _ ~--~ ~!/

my Trustee shall be mindful of, and take into consideration to the
extent it deems necessary, any additional sources of income and
principal available to PHII,IP MISTRETTA, IV, which arise
outside of this agreement and are known to my Trustee.
It is my express desire that my Trustee take into consideration the
future probable needs of PHILIP MISTRETTA, IV prior to making

advantage of retaining funds inside any retirement plan.

distributions to PHILIP MISTRETTA, N, remind him of any long-

grandchild. Any Letter of Instruction to my Trustee shall be

If my state law does not allow the incorporation by reference of a
letter of instruction to be a binding inclusion to this agreement, I
request that my Trustee be morally bound to act in accordance with
any provisions I might leave in a Letter of Instruction to my
Trustee.
Should I leave multiple letters of instruction which conflict as to
the instructions, that letter which is last dated shall control as to
those provisions which are in conflict.
4. Distribution on the Death of PHILIP MISTRETTA N

ELLEN F. SMITH NEBRE, which arise outside of this agreement
and are known to my Trustee.
It is my express desire that my Trustee take into consideration the
future probable needs of the children of ELLEN F. SMITH
NEBRE prior to making any discretionary distributions hereunder.
I would ask that my Trustee, before making distributions to the
children of ELLEN F. SMITH NEBRE, remind him of the long-
term income tax deferral advantage of retaining funds inside any
retirement plan.
Further, I would also ask that my Trustee, before making
distributions to the children of ELLEN F. SMITH NEBRE, remind
them of any long-term advantages of retaining assets in his trust
share.
When exercising discretionary authority, my Trustee shall act in
accordance with any written, signed and dated Letter of Instruction
to my Trustee left by me leaving instructions for the care of my
grandchildren. Any Letter of Instruction to my Trustee shall be
incorporated by reference into this agreement.
~__. - ,
~'n~.~~ ~ • u~~r~ 12
If my state law does not allow the incorporation by reference of a
letter of instruction to be a binding inclusion to this agreement, I
request that my Trustee be morally bound to act in accordance with
any provisions I might leave in a Letter of Instruction to my
Trustee.
Should I leave multiple letters of instruction which conflict as to
the instructions, that letter which is last dated shall control as to
those provisions which are in conflict.
4. Termination of Trust.
When a child of ELLEN F. SMITH NEBRE attains the age of
twenty-five (25) years, my Trustee shall distribute the entire
balance of his or her trust to said child, and such trust shall
terminate
5. Distribution on the Death of a child of ELLEN F. SMITH
NEBRE.
Each child of ELLEN F. SMITH NEBRE shall have the limited
testamentary power to appoint to or for the benefit of his or her
descendants the entire principal and any accrued and undistributed
net income of his or her trust share as it exists at his or her death.
Each child of ELLEN F. SMITH NEBRE shall exercise this
limited power of appointment by a valid last will and testament, a
valid living trust agreement, or any other notarized written
instrument signed by such child of ELLEN F. SMITH NEBRE. In
exercising this limited power of appointment, each child of ELLEN
F. SMITH NEBRE shall specifically refer to this power.
Each child of ELLEN F. SMITH NEBRE shall have the sole and
exclusive right to exercise this limited power of appointment.
Each child of ELLEN F. SMITH NEBRE may make distributions
among his or her descendants in equal or unequal amounts, and on
such terms and conditions, either outright or in trust, as he or she
shall determine.
To the extent this limited power of appointment is not exercised,
my Trustee shall distribute the remaining trust property to the then
living descendants of such child of ELLEN F. SMITH NEBRE, per
stirpes.
L . e~,~`L~2r~ C.~ ~~ ~ ~,~ 13
If a child of ELLEN F. SMITH NEBRE has no then living
descendants, my Trustee shall distribute the balance of his or her
trust property to my then living descendants, per stirpes.
This power shall not be exercised in favor of my grandchildren's
estate, the creditors of my grandchildren's estate, or in any manner
which would result in any economic benefit to my grandchildren.
FIFTH: All federal, state and other death taxes payable because of my death, with
respect to the property forming my gross estate for tax purposes, whether or not passing under this
will, including any interest or penalty imposed in connection with such tax, shall be considered a
part of the expense of the administration of my estate and shall be paid from my residuary estate
under ITEM FOURTH without apportionment of right of reimbursement. All such taxes on present
or future interest shall be paid at such time or times as my executor or my Trustee may think proper,
regardless of whether such taxes are then due.

3. To retain, without incurring any liability, as investments, any property
