WILL
of
BETTY HERSHEY LUTZ
I, BETTY HERSHEY LUTZ, presently of Cumberland County,
Pennsylvania, declare this to be my will and hereby revoke all
prior wills and codicils made by me.
1. Tanqible Personal Property. I bequeath such items of
my tangible personal property as are specifically itemized on a
list, if any, in my handwriting, signed and dated by me at the
end thereof, and attached to this, my Will, to the person(s)
named thereupon to receive such items, and all of my remaining
tangible personal property not used in business or for the
production of income, including without limitation furniture,
furnishings, clothing, jewelry, objects of art and decoration,
and the like, and any motor vehicles which I own, together with
the insurance thereon, I bequeath to my son, James H. Lutz, if he
survives me, and if my son does not survive me, I bequeath such
property to my daughter-in-law, Lois M. Lutz, and if she is not
then living, I bequeath such property equally between my
grandchildren. If either one of my grandchildren does not
survive me, his or her share shall be distributed per stirpes
among those of his or her issue who survive me. If there are no
such issue, said property shall go to my other grandchild, or if
my other grandchild is not then living, shall be distributed per
stirpes among those of his or her issue who survive me. With
regard to the property passing hereunder, distribution shall be
made between my grandchildren on the basis of choices made in
order determined by lot and by rotation, and the values as
finally determined for federal estate tax purposes shall be
determinative with regard to the values of the property chosen,
and any ultimate disparity between my grandchildren shall be
equalled by such payments between them as may be necessary. If
either one of my grandchildren is not then living, the choices to
which he or she would have been entitled shall be made by his or
her issue in order determined by lot and by rotation.
2. Specific Bequests.
bequests:
I make the following specific
(a) Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) to my daughter-
in-law, Lois M. Lutz, if she survives me.
(b) Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00) to my nephew,
James W. Mink, if he survives me.
3. Residue. I bequeath, devise, and appoint all the rest
of my property, of whatever nature and wherever situated,
including property over which I hold a power of appointment, as
follows:
(a) If I am survived by my son, James H. Lutz, there
shall be allocated from such residue an amount equal to the
amount of the Generation-Skipping Tax ("GST") exemption available
to me after taking into account the allocation (if any) of the
GST exemption to "direct skips" made by me, which amount shall be
held hereunder in a separate "GST" Trust, pursuant to the terms
of Section 4 below, and the then balance of such residue shall be
distributed outright to my son.
(b) If I am not survived by my son, the then entire
balance of such residue shall be held, administered and
distributed in a separate GST Trust for the benefit of my
daughter-in-law, Lois M. Lutz, which GST Trust shall have the
same terms and conditions therefor as there are for the GST Trust
which would have existed for my son had he survived me.
(c) If I am survived by neither my son nor my
daughter-in-law, Lois M. Lutz, the entire balance hereunder shall
be distributed per stirpes to the then issue of my son, provided,
however, that if any such issue is then under the age of thirty
(30) years, his or her share shall be held for him or her under
the terms of Section 5 below.
4. Generation Skipping Tax Trust for Son and/or Daughter-
In-Law. A separate GST Trust established for my son and after
his death for my said daughter-in-law if she survives my son, or
for my said daughter-in-law if my son predeceases me, as
aforesaid, shall be administered and distributed as follows:
(a) Income. The Trustee shall pay the net income from
such separate trust at least quarterly to or for the benefit of
my son or daughter-in-law, as the case may be, during his/her
lifetime.
(b) Principal. The Trustee shall from time to time
pay such sums from the principal of such separate trust to or for
the benefit of my son or my said daughter-in-law as may in the
discretion of the Trustee seem proper for his/her support,
maintenance and health care, and for the maintenance by him/her
of the standard of living maintained by him/her during my
lifetime.
- 2 -
(c) After Lifetime of Son and/or Dauqhter-In T.~W. If
my son survives me, at his death, the Trustee shall continue the
principal balance in such separate trust for the benefit of my
said daughter-in-law if she is then living, under the same terms
and conditions as applied to my son during his lifetime, and if
my said daughter-in-law is not then living, or upon the death of
my said daughter-in-law if she survives my son, the Trustee shall
distribute the principal balance in such separate trust per
stirpes to the issue of my son, provided, however, that if any
such issue is then under the age of thirty (30) years, his/her
share shall be held for him/her in a, or shall be added to an
already existing, separate trust for him/her hereunder under the
terms of Section 5 below.
5. Separate Trusts. The income and principal of a
separate trust in which a share from eventual distribution of a
GST Trust is held under Section 4 hereof, or a share is held
under the terms of Section 3 hereof should my son and my said
daughter-in-law not survive me, for a beneficiary pursuant to
directions hereinabove made, shall be distributed as follows:
(a) Income. The income shall be distributed at least
quarterly to or for the benefit of the beneficiary. No payment
shall be made under this Subsection which would discharge to any
extent the legal obligation of any person for the support of the
beneficiary.
(b) Principal. The Trustee shall pay from the
principal such sums to or for the benefit of any or all of the
beneficiary and his or her issue as in the discretion of the
Trustee seems proper for their support, maintenance, health care,
and education, and such sums to or for the benefit of the
beneficiary as in the discretion of the Trustee seems proper to
help establish him or her in a business or profession or acquire
or furnish a home for him or her, taking into account the
reasonably anticipated needs and resources of the beneficiary and
his or her issue, their income and estate tax brackets, the
desirability of the transaction (if any), and the possible
application of any generation-skipping tax.
(c) Distribution of Separate Trust.
(i) When such beneficiary shall have attained the
age of thirty (30) years, the Trustee shall distribute to him or
her at his or her written request the entire balance then held in
his or her separate trust.
- 3 -
(ii) If such beneficiary should die before making
proper request for the entire balance in his or her separate
trust, then the entire balance in his or her separate trust shall
at his or her death be distributed, outright or in trust, in such
sums or proportions as such beneficiary may direct in his or her
last will, expressly referring to his or her separate trust
hereunder, but only among my issue; and to the extent that such
beneficiary shall fail to exercise effectively his or her limited
power of appointment hereunder, the aforementioned balance in his
or her separate trust shall then be distributed per stirpes to
his or her issue, or, if no such issue survive him or her, per
stirpes to the issue of his or her parent who was a child or more
remote descendant of myself, or, if no such issue survive him or
her, per stirpes to the issue of his or her grandparent who was a
child or more remote descendant of myself, if no such issue
survive him or her, per stirpes to my issue, with the share of
any of such issue for whom property is then held in or payable to
a separate trust under this Section being added to such separate
trust.
(d) Disposition Upon Application of Rule Against
Perpetuities. Notwithstanding Subsection (c) above, if during
the lifetime of a person for whom a separate trust under this
Section was established the interest of such person therein
becomes void under the applicable rule against perpetuities, then
the balance in such separate trust shall then be distributed
outright to such person.
6. Survival Clause. If any beneficiary hereunder should
die within sixty (60) days after me, or within sixty (60) days
after any other person the survival of whom determines his or her
rights hereunder, then such beneficiary shall be deemed to have
predeceased me or such other person for all purposes hereunder.
7. Powers. In addition to such other powers and duties as
may be granted elsewhere herein or which may be granted by law,
the fiduciaries hereunder shall have the following powers and
duties, without the necessity of notice to or consent by any
Court:
(a) To retain all or any part of the property of the
Settlor, real or personal, in the form in which it may be held at
the time of its receipt, including any closely held business in
which the Settlor has an interest and any stock of any corporate
fiduciary hereunder, as long as in the exercise of their
discretion it may be advisable so to do, notwithstanding that
said property may not be of a character authorized by law.
- 4 -
(b) To invest and reinvest any funds held hereunder in
any property, real or personal, including, but not by way of
limitation, bonds, preferred stocks, common stocks, and other
securities of domestic or foreign corporations or investment
trusts, mortgages or mortgage participations, and common trust
funds, even though such property would not be considered
appropriate or legal for a fiduciary apart from this provision.
(c) To sell, convey, exchange, partition, give options
to buy or lease upon, or otherwise dispose of any property, real
or personal, at any time held by them, with or without order of
court at their option, at public or private sale or otherwise,
for cash or other consideration or for such credit terms as they
think proper, and upon such terms and for such prices as they may
determine, and to convey such property free of all trusts.
(d) To borrow money from any person, including any
fiduciary hereunder, for any purpose in connection with the
administration hereof, to execute promissory notes or other
obligations for amounts so borrowed, and to secure the payments
of such amounts by mortgages or pledges of any property, real or
personal, which may be held hereunder.
(e) In dividing or distributing any property, real or
personal, included herein, to divide or distribute in cash, in
kind, or partly in cash and partly in kind.
(f) To hold, manage, and develop any real estate which
may be held by them at any time, to mortgage any such property in
such amounts and on such terms as they may deem advisable, to
lease any such property for such term or terms, and upon such
conditions and rentals as they may deem advisable, whether or not
the term of any such lease shall exceed the period permitted by
law or the probable period of retention under this instrument; to
make repairs, replacements and improvements, structural and
otherwise, in connection with any such property, to abandon any
such property which they may deem to be worthless or not of
sufficient value to warrant keeping or protecting, and to permit
any such property to be lost by tax sale or any other
proceedings.
(g) To employ such brokers, banks, custodians,
investment counsel, attorneys, and other agents, and to delegate
to them such duties, rights and powers as they may determine, and
for such periods as they think fit.
- 5 -
(h) To register any securities at any time in their
names as fiduciary, or in the names of nominees, with or without
indicating the trust character of the securities so registered.
(i) With respect to any securities held hereunder, to
vote upon any proposition or election at any meeting of the
person or entity issuing such securities, and to grant proxies,
discretionary or otherwise, to vote at any such meeting; to join
or become a party to any reorganization, readjustment, merger,
voting trust, consolidation or exchange, and to deposit any such
securities with any committee, depository, trustee or otherwise,
and to pay out of the trust created herein, any fees, expenses,
and assessments incurred in connection therewith; to exercise
conversion, subscription or other rights, and to receive or hold
any new securities issued as a result of any such reorganization,
readjustment, merger, voting trust, consolidation, exchange or
exercise of conversion, subscription or other rights and
generally to take all action with respect to any such securities
as could be taken by the absolute owner thereof.
(j) To engage in sales, leases, loans, and other
transactions with the estate of the Settlor, the estate of her
husband, or any trust established by either of them, even if they
are also fiduciaries or beneficiaries thereof.
(k) To make all necessary proofs of death under the
insurance policies of which they are the beneficiary, to execute
any receipts for the proceeds and to institute any action to
collect said proceeds and to make adjustments of any claim
thereunder, provided, however, that they need not institute any
action unless they shall have been indemnified against all
expenses and liabilities to which they may become subject as a
result thereof. If, however, they desire to institute such
action without indemnification, they are hereby authorized to be
reimbursed for all expenses and liabilities incurred as a result
thereof from any amounts which may be held in trust hereunder
then or thereafter.
(1) To operate, own, or develop any business or
property held hereunder in any form, including without limitation
sole proprietorship, limited or general partnership, corporation,
association, tenancy in common, condominium, or any other,
whether or not they have restricted or no management rights, as
they in their discretion think best.
8. Spendthrift Clause. No interest whether in income or
principal, whether or not a remainder interest, and whether
- 6 -
vested or contingent, of any beneficiary hereunder shall be
subject to anticipation, pledge, assignment, sale or transfer in
any manner, nor shall any beneficiary have power in any manner to
charge or encumber his or her said interest, nor shall the said
interest of any beneficiary be liable or subject in any manner
while in the possession of the fiduciary(s) for any liability of
such beneficiary, whether such liability arises from his or her
debts, contracts, torts, or other engagements of any type.
9. Facility of Payments for Minors or Incompetents. Any
amounts which are payable or distributable hereunder to a minor
or incompetent may, at the discretion of the fiduciary(s), be
paid or distributed to the parent or guardian of such minor or
incompetent, to the person with whom such minor or incompetent
resides, or directly to such minor or incompetent, or may be
applied for the use or benefit of such minor or incompetent.
10. Taxes. Unless provided otherwise hereunder, estate,
inheritance and succession taxes that may have been assessed in
consequence of my death, of whatever nature and by whatever
jurisdiction imposed, whether or not on account of property
passing hereunder, may on request of my personal representative
and consent of the Trustee be paid out of the balance, if any,
under Section 3 which remains after establishing the GST Trust,
provided, however, that no such taxes shall be paid out of assets
that are not includible in the federal gross estate of the
Settlor.
11. Miscellaneous.
(a) Adoption. For all purposes hereof, any child of
my son who is legally adopted by him shall be deemed a naturally
born child of my son, and any issue of any such child shall be
considered to be issue of myself.
(b) Dauqhter-in-Law. For all purposes hereof, my
daughter-in-law, Lois M. Lutz, shall be deemed to be deceased if
ever the marriage of my son and my said daughter-in-law
terminates other than because of the death of my son, or if
during the lifetime of my son, my said daughter-in-law (for
reasons which are not beyond her control, such as, but not
limited to, ill health) does not continue to cohabit with my son
for a period of twelve consecutive months.
(c) Successor Trustee. While either James H. Lutz or
Lois M. Lutz is a beneficiary of a trust established hereunder,
for his or her benefit, he or she shall have the right, for
- 7 -
reasonable cause, to name a successor Trustee to the Trustee
which is then serving, or, if there is no such cause, to name a
successor Trustee to the Trustee which is then serving, but upon
condition that such successor be a corporate fiduciary which
maintains an office for the conduct of fiduciary business
(i) within the state of the United States or province of Canada
in which either James or Lois, as the case may be, then maintains
his or her primary place of residence, or (ii) in Pennsylvania;
provided, however, that such right to name a successor Trustee
shall not be exercisable more often than one time during any
five-year period. Further, if ever the ownership of a Trustee
hereunder is changed such that majority control of such Trustee
becomes owned by a different owner than was the owner when such
Trustee became a Trustee hereunder, or, if ever any Trustee
hereunder merges with a corporate fiduciary which is larger than
such Trustee hereunder at the time of such merger, either James
or Lois, as the case may be, thereafter may designate a successor
Trustee for the trust established hereunder for his or her
benefit because of such change of majority control, or because of
such merger, but, again, upon condition that such successor be a
corporate fiduciary which maintains an office for the conduct of
fiduciary business (i) within the state of the United States or
province of Canada in which either James or Lois, as the case may
be, maintains his or her primary place of residence, or (ii) in
Pennsylvania; provided, however, that such right to name a
successor Trustee shall not be exercisable more often than one
time during any five-year period.
12. Gender. Unless the context indicates otherwise, any
use of either gender herein shall also include the other gender.
13. Law Governing. This instrument shall be administered
and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania.
14. Fiduciarie______~s. I appoint my son, James H. Lutz, as
Executor hereunder, and if ever he is unable or unwilling so to
serve, or to continue so serving, I appoint Mellon Bank to serve
in his place.
I appoint Mellon Bank as the initial Trustee hereunder.
My fiduciary(s) hereunder shall serve as guardian(s) of the
property of any minor beneficiaries hereunder, under any
instrument of trust executed by me, under any policies of
insurance on my life, and in any other situation in which the
- 8 -
power to make such appointment exists under the laws of
Pennsylvania.
No fiduciary named herein shall be required to furnish bond
or other security for the proper performance of his or its duties
hereunder.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I, BETTY HERSHEY LUTZ, herewith set my
hand to this, my last Will, typewritten on ten (10) sheets of

DATE
DATE
For dates of death on or after July 1, 1994 and before January 1, 1995, the tax rate imposed on the net value of transfers to or for the use of the surviving spouse is 3%
[72 P.S.§ 9916 (a) (1.1) (i)].
For dates of death on or after January 1, 1995, the tax rate imposed on the net value of transfers to or for the use of the surviving spouse is 0% [72 P.S. § 9116 (a) (1.1) (ii)]
The statute does not exempt a transfer to a surviving spouse from tax, and the statutory requirements for disclosure of assets and filing a tax return are still applicable even if
the surviving spouse is the only beneficiary.
For dates of death on or after July 1, 2000:
The tax rate imposed on the net value of transfers from a deceased child twenty-one years of age or younger at death to or for the use of a natural parent, an adoptive parent,
or a stepparent of the child is 0% [72 P.S. § 9116(a)(1.2)].
The tax rate imposed on the net value of transfers to or for the use of the decedent's lineal beneficiaries is 4.5%, except as noted in 72 P.S. § 9116(1.2) [72 P.S. § 9116(a)(1 )].
The tax rate imposed on the net value of transfers to or for the use of the decedent's siblings is 12% (72 P.S. § 9116(a)(1.3)]. A sibling is defined, under Section 9102, as an
individual who has at least one parent in common with the decedent, whether by blood or adoption.

WILL
o__f
BETTY HERSHEY LUTZ
I, BETTY HERSHEY LUTZ, presently of Cumberland County,
Pennsylvania, declare this to be my will and hereby revoke all
prior wills and codicils made by me.
1. Tanqible Personal Property. I bequeath such items of
my tangible personal property as are specifically itemized on a
list, if any, in my handwriting, signed and dated by me at the
end thereof, and attached to this, my Will, to the person(s)
named thereupon to receive such items, and all of my remaining
tangible personal property not used in business or for the
production of income, including without limitation furniture,
furnishings, clothing, jewelry, objects of art and decoration,
and the like, and any motor vehicles which I own, together with
the insurance thereon, I bequeath to my son, James H. Lutz, if he
survives me, and if my son does not survive me, I bequeath such
property to my daughter-in-law, Lois M. Lutz, and if she is not
then living, I bequeath such property equally between my
grandchildren. If either one of my grandchildren does not
survive me, his or her share shall be distributed per stirpes
among those of his or her issue who survive me. If there are no
such issue, said property shall go to my other grandchild, or if
my other grandchild is not then living, shall be distributed per
stirpes among those of his or her issue who survive me. With
regard to the property passing hereunder, distribution shall be
made between my grandchildren on the basis of choices made in
order determined by lot and by rotation, and the values as
finally determined for federal estate tax purposes shall be
determinative with regard to the values of the property chosen,
and any ultimate disparity between my grandchildren shall be
equalled by such payments between them as may be necessary. If
either one of my grandchildren is not then living, the choices to
which he or she would have been entitled shall be made by his or
her issue in order determined by lot and by rotation.
2. Specific Bequests.
bequests:
I make the following specific
(a) Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) to my daughter-
in-law, Lois M. Lutz, if she survives me.
(b) Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00) to my nephew,
James W. Mink, if he survives me.
3. Residue. I bequeath, devise, and appoint all the rest
of my property, of whatever nature and wherever situated,
including property over which I hold a power of appointment, as
follows:
(a) If I am survived by my son, James H. Lutz, there
shall be allocated from such residue an amount equal to the
amount of the Generation-Skipping Tax ("GST") exemption available
to me after taking into account the allocation (if any) of the
GST exemption to "direct skips" made by me, which amount shall be
held hereunder in a separate "GST" Trust, pursuant to the terms
of Section 4 below, and the then balance of such residue shall be
distributed outright to my son.
(b) If I am not survived by my son, the then entire
balance of such residue shall be held, administered and
distributed in a separate GST Trust for the benefit of my
daughter-in-law, Lois M. Lutz, which GST Trust shall have the
same terms and conditions therefor as there are for the GST Trust
which would have existed for my son had he survived me.
(c) If I am survived by neither my son nor my
daughter-in-law, Lois M. Lutz, the entire balance hereunder shall
be distributed per stirpes to the then issue of my son, provided,
however, that if any such issue is then under the age of thirty
(30) years, his or her share shall be held for him or her under
the terms of Section 5 below.
4. Generation Skippinq Tax Trust for Son and/or Dauqhter-
In-Law. A separate GST Trust established for my son and after
his death for my said daughter-in-law if she survives my son, or
for my said daughter-in-law if my son predeceases me, as
aforesaid, shall be administered and distributed as follows:
(a) Income. The Trustee shall pay the net income from
such separate trust at least quarterly to or for the benefit of
my son or daughter-in-law, as the case may be, during his/her
lifetime.
(b) Principal. The Trustee shall from time to time
pay such sums from the principal of such separate trust to or for
the benefit of my son or my said daughter-in-law as may in the
discretion of the Trustee seem proper for his/her support,
maintenance and health care, and for the maintenance by him/her
of the standard of living maintained by him/her during my
lifetime.
- 2 -
(c) After Lifetime of Son and/or Dauqhter-In Law. If
my son survives me, at his death, the Trustee shall continue the
principal balance in such separate trust for the benefit of my
said daughter-in-law if she is then living, under the same ,terms
and conditions as applied to my son during his lifetime, and if
my said daughter-in-law is not then living, or upon the death of
my said daughter-in-law if she survives my son, the Trustee shall
distribute the principal balance in such separate trust per
stirpes to the issue of my son, provided, however, that if any
such issue is then under the age of thirty (30) years, his/her
share shall be held for him/her in a, or shall be added to an
already existing, separate trust for him/her hereunder under the
terms of Section 5 below.
5. Separate Trusts. The income and principal of a
separate trust in which a share from eventual distribution of a
GST Trust is held under Section 4 hereof, or a share is held
under the terms of Section 3 hereof should my son and my said
daughter-in-law not survive me, for a beneficiary pursuant to
directions hereinabove made, shall be distributed as follows:
(a) Income. The income shall be distributed at least
quarterly to or for the benefit of the beneficiary. No payment
shall be made under this Subsection which would discharge to any
extent the legal obligation of any person for the support of the
beneficiary.
(b) Principal. The Trustee shall pay from the
principal such sums to or for the benefit of any or all of the
beneficiary and his or her issue as in the discretion of the
Trustee seems proper for their support, maintenance, health care,
and education, and such sums to or for the benefit of the
beneficiary as in the discretion of the Trustee seems proper to
help establish him or her in a business or profession or acquire
or furnish a home for him or her, taking into account the
reasonably anticipated needs and resources of the beneficiary and
his or her issue, their income and estate tax brackets, the
desirability of the transaction (if any)~ and the possible
application of any generation-skipping tax.
(c) Distribution of SeDarate Trust.
(i) When such beneficiary shall have attained the
age of thirty (30) years, the Trustee shall distribute to him or
her at his or her written request the entire balance then held in
his or her separate trust.
- 3 -
(ii) If such beneficiary should die before making
proper request for the entire balance in his or her separate
trust, then the entire balance in his or her separate trust shall
at his or her death be distributed, outright or in trust, ~n such
sums or proportions as such beneficiary may direct in his or her
last will, expressly referring to his or her separate trust
hereunder, but only among my issue; and to the extent that such
beneficiary shall fail to exercise effectively his or her limited
power of appointment hereunder, the aforementioned balance in his
or her separate trust shall then be distributed per stirpes to
his or her issue, or, if no such issue survive him or her, per
stirpes to the issue of his or her parent who was a child or more
remote descendant of myself, or, if no such issue survive him or
her, per stirpes to the issue of his or her grandparent who was a
child or more remote descendant of myself, if no such issue
survive him or her, per stirpes to my issue, with the share of
any of such issue for whom property is then held in or payable to
a separate trust under this Section being added to such separate
trust.
(d) Disposition Upon Application of Rule Aqainst
PerDetuities. Notwithstanding Subsection (c) above, if during
the lifetime of a person for whom a separate trust under this
Section was established the interest of such person therein
becomes void under the applicable rule against perpetuities, then
the balance in such separate trust shall then be distributed
outright to such person.
6. Survival Clause. If any beneficiary hereunder should
die within sixty (60) days after me, or within sixty (60) 'days
after any other person the survival of whom determines his or her
rights hereunder, then such beneficiary shall be deemed to have
predeceased me or such other person for all purposes hereunder.
70 Powers. In addition to such other powers and duties as
may be granted elsewhere herein or which may be granted by law,
the fiduciaries hereunder shall have the following powers and
duties, without the necessity of notice to or consent by any
Court:
(a) To retain all or any part of the Property of the
Settlor, real or personal, in the form in which it may be held at
the time of its receipt, including any closely held business in

discretion it may be advisable so to do, notwithstanding that
said property may not be of a character authorized by law.

any property, real or personal, including, but not by way of
limitation, bonds, preferred stocks, common stocks, and other

determine, and to convey such property free of all trusts.

ever the marriage of my son and my said daughter-in-law
terminates other than because of the death of my son, or if
during the lifetime of my son, my said daughter-in-law (for
reasons which are not beyond her control, such as, but not
limited to, ill health) does not continue to cohabit with my son
for a period of twelve consecutive months.
(c) Successor Trustee. While either James H. Lutz or
Lois M. Lutz is a beneficiary of a trust established hereunder,
for his or her benefit, he or she shall have the right, for
- 7 -
reasonable cause, to name a successor Trustee to the Trustee

condition that such successor be a corporate fiduciary which
maintains an office for the conduct of fiduciary business
(i) within the state of the United States or province of Canada
in which either James or Lois, as the case may be, then maintains
his or her primary place of residence, or (ii) in Pennsylvania;
provided, however, that such right to name a successor Trustee
shall not be exercisable more often than one time during any
five-year period. Further, if ever the ownership of a Trustee
hereunder is changed such that majority control of such Trustee
becomes owned by a different owner than was the owner when such
Trustee became a Trustee hereunder, or, if ever any Trustee
hereunder merges with a corporate fiduciary which is larger than
such Trustee hereunder at the time of such merger, either James
or Lois, as the case may be, thereafter may designate a successor
Trustee for the trust established hereunder for his or her
benefit because of such change of majority control, or because of
such merger, but, again, upon condition that such successor be a
corporate fiduciary which maintains an office for the conduct of
fiduciary business (i) within the state of the United States or
province of Canada in which either James or Lois, as the case may
be, maintains his or her primary place of residence, or (ii) in
Pennsylvania; provided, however, that such right to name a
successor Trustee shall not be exercisable more often than one
time during any five-year period.
12. Gender. Unless the context indicates otherwise, any
use of either gender herein shall also include the other gender.
13. Law Governing. This instrument shall be administered
and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania.
14. Fiduciaries. I appoint my son, James H. Lutz, as
Executor hereunder, and if ever he is unable or unwilling so to
serve, or to continue so serving, I appoint Mellon Bank to serve
in his place.
I appoint Mellon Bank as the initial Trustee hereunder.
My fiduciary(s) hereunder shall serve as guardian(s) of the
property of any minor beneficiaries hereunder, under any
instrument of trust executed by me, under any policies of
insurance on my life, and in any other situation in which the
- 8 -
power to make such appointment exists under the laws of
Pennsylvania.
No fiduciary named herein shall be required to furnisk bond
or other security for the proper performance of his or its duties
hereunder.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I, BETTY HERSHEY LUTZ, herewith set my
