OF
ADELINE W. HOLMES
I, ADELINE W. HOLMES, of the Borough of Carlisle, Cumberland County,
Pennsylvania, declare this to be my last Will, hereby revoking all prior wills and codicils.
FIRST: The expenses of my last illness and funeral
shall be paid from my estate.
SECOND: I give and bequeath all clothing, jewelry,
household goods, personal effects, automobiles and all other tangible personal property
not otherwise specifically bequeathed which I may own at the time of my death (except
any securities and cash on hand or on deposit), in shares of substantially equal value to
my daughters, HELEN HOLMES and MARY HOLMES DAGUE, if both are living at the
time of my death, otherwise all to the survivor thereof. The division is to be made in any
manner as they shall agree or, if they shall fail to agree upon a division within six
months after the date of my death, as my Executor shall determine.
I may leave a memorandum (which is not to be a part of this Will) listing
some of the items of tangible personal property which I may wish certain persons to have
and I request (but do not require) that my wishes as set forth in the memorandum be
observed.
All reasonable costs of safeguarding, insuring, packing, storing, and
delivering each item of tangible personal property shall be paid as expenses of
administration of my estate.
THIRD: I give and devise the residue of my estate,
real and personal, to the then acting Trustee under my inter vivos Agreement of Trust
dated October 25, 1991, as amended, and heretofore executed by me as Settlor and as
Trustee, to be added to the principal held thereunder. In any instance where a share in
my estate would be distributable to a beneficiary of such trust when received by the
Trustee, my Executor may make distribution directly to such beneficiary.
FOURTH: In addition to powers vested in them by
law, my Executors and their successors shall have the following powers, applicable to all
property held by them, including all property held for minors, effective without the order
of any court and until actual distribution of all such property.
(a) To retain any property received by them including the stock of any
corporate fiduciary acting hereunder;
(b) To sell real estate for any purpose, publicly or privately, for such
prices and on such terms and as they deem proper, without liability on the purchasers
to see to application of the purchase moneys;
(c) To compromise controversies;
(d) To distribute in cash or kind or partly in each at valuations i~Lxed by
them;
(e) To hold investments in the name of a nominee; and
(f) To borrow money from and sell property to the trust referred to in
Item THIRD hereof even though they are also acting as Trustees thereunder.
FIFTH: I appoint my Trustee under the
Agreement of Trust referred to in Item THIRD hereof as Guardian to hold for minors
ail property for which other provision is not made in this Will or said Agreement and
which is payable by law to a guardian appointed by my Will.
SIXTH: All taxes, interest and penalties thereon
payable by reason of my death with respect to property comprising my gross estate,
whether or not passing under this Will, shall be paid from the principal of my residuary
estate, provided however, that my Executors may cail upon the trust referred to in Item
THIRD hereof to pay such taxes, interest and penaities attributed to the extent the
amount distributable to such trust under Will before taxes. Taxes on future interests
may be prepaid.
SEVENTH: Any beneficiary hereunder who dies at the
same time as me, within ten (10) days of me, or under circumstances wherein it shall be
difficult or impossible to determine who died first shall be presumed to have predeceased
me.
EIGHTH: I appoint my daughter, MARY HOLMES
DAGUE, as Executrix (herein referred to as my "Executor") of this my will. In the event
my said daughter cannot act or continue to act as Executrix for any reason, I appoint my
daughter, HELEN HOLMES to act as Executrix in her place. No fiduciary acting
hereunder shall be required to post bond or enter security in any jurisdiction.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and seal this

TRUST AGREEMENT made this~ day of , 1991,
by and between ADELINE W. HOLMES of Madison, Connecticut,
hereinafter referred to as the "Settlor," and ADELINE W.
HOLMES, hereinafter referred to as the "Trustee"
W I TNE S SETH :
WHEREAS, the Settlor desires to create a trust of
certain securities and cash, the said securities and cash being
described in Schedule A attached hereto; and
WHEREAS, the Settlor or another person or persons, may
hereafter desire to deposit with the Trustee other cash,
property or securities, or may wish to add to the trust by
gift, devise or bequest under the terms of a Last Will and
Testament, in which event such additional cash, property or
securities shall be listed on additional schedules to be
attached hereto;
NOW, THEREFORE, the Trustee agrees to hold said
securities and cash and any other property which the Settlor or
any other person may hereafter place or cause to be placed
under this Agreement, by any means whatever, with consent of
the Trustee (hereinafter referred to as the Trust Property),
ATTORNEY JEANN R. TERRAZZANO, P.O. DRAWER 327, GUILFORD, CT 06437
and to manage, invest and reinvest said property in trust for
the following uses and purposes:
ARTICLE I
This Trust shall be known as the ADELINE W. HOLMES
FAMILY TRUST.
ARTICLE II
During the lifetime of the Settlor, the Trustee shall
receive, hold and manage the Trust Property and shall invest
and reinvest any property, and shall collect the income, if
any, and proceeds thereof and shall pay over to or for the
benefit of the Settlor during her lifetime so much of the
annual net income and such amount or amounts of principal as
the Settlor may request from time to time. If the successor
Trustee receives written notice from a licensed physician
stating that the Settlor is unable to make such a request due
to illness or the infirmities of advanced age of the Settlor,
or if for any other reason the Settlor cannot make such a
request, the successor Trustee is allowed in its sole
discretion, to use and apply the net income and/or the
prince, pal of the Trust Property from time to time for the
support, comfort and welfare, including reasonable luxuries of
the Settlor. Any net income not so paid or applied shall be
accumulated and added to the principal periodically (but not
2
ATTORNEY JEANN R. TERRAZZANO, P.O. DRAWER 327, GUILFORD. CT 06437
less frequently than annually). In investing and reinvesting
any property held by the Trustee during the life of the
Settlor, the Trustee is requested to consult with the Settlor
insofar as is practicable. The Trustee is hereby exonerated
from any liability in connection with any action taken with
Settlor's consent.
ARTICLE III
Upon the Settlor's death, if the liquid assets of her
probate estate are insufficient to conveniently discharge all
of the cash bequests, debts, claims, funeral and administration
expenses, and taxes which become due and payable on account of
her death, the Trustee is authorized and directed to pay to the
executors or administrators of the Settlor's estate such sum or
sums as such executors or administrators may request in writing
to discharge the portion of such bequests, debts, claims,
funeral and administration expenses and taxes which cannot be
conveniently discharged by the assets of the Settlor's probate
estate. The Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to
inquire as to the correctness or as to the propriety of the
payment, of any amount or amounts so stated in any such written
request, or to see to the application thereof, by said
executors or administrators, but payment to them shall be a
full and complete discharge to the Trustee with respect to such
3
A'I-rORNEY JEANN R. TERRAZZANO, P.O. DRAWER 327, GUILFORD, CT 06437
payment or payments.
ARTICLE IV
The Trustee shall divide the Trust, as it is then
constituted, into equal portions for children of the Settlor
either living at the time or represented by then living issue.
The Trustee shall forthwith pay over and distribute one such
portion free of any trust, to the Settlor's daughter, HELEN
HOLMES GATELY, if living, and shall set out one such portion in
trust under Subparagraph A hereof for the Settlor's daughter,
MARY HOLMES DAGUE, if living, and shall set one such portion in
trust under Subparagraph B hereof for the then living issue,
per stirpes, of each of said children who shall have previously
died.
A. As to the share for the Settlor's daughter, MARY
HOLMES DAGUE, if living, the Trustee is directed to manage,
invest and reinvest said property in the following manner:
1. For a period of five (5) years after the
death of the Settlor, the Trustee shall pay to or for the
benefit of said daughter the income of the principal of said
Trust in quarter annual payments as nearly equal as may be
practical and as much of the principal as the Trustee, in its
sole discretion deems reasonable or necessary for her health,
maintenance, support and education.
4
ATTORNEY JEANN R. TERRAZZANO, P.O. DRAWER 327, GUILFORD, CT 06437
2. At the end of the five (5) year period, the
Trustee shall pay over to said daughter the principal then
remaining, absolutely.
3. Provided, however, if at any time the
principal of the Trust shall be of such size that the
continuation of such trust is, in the Trustee's sole
discretion, unwarranted, the Trustee may, in its sole
discretion, terminate the trust in which event it shall pay
over and distribute the balance trust to said daughter.
4. Provided further, however, that should said
daughter die before receiving all of the principal from said
Trust, then upon the death of said daughter, the Trustee shall
pay over and distribute the remaining principal and
undistributed income of said Trust to the descendants then
living of said child, per stirpes, absolutely, subject to the
terms of Subparagraph B hereof and in default of such
descendants then living of such child, to the Settlor's
descendants then living, per stirpes, absolutely, subject to
the provisions of Subparagraph B of this Article.
B. As to the per stirpes share of each of the issue
of each deceased child of the Settlor, the Trustee is directed
as follows:
1. The share of any of such issue, age
5
ATTORNEY JEANN R. TERRAZZANO, P,O, DRAWER 327. GUILFORD, CT 06437
twenty-five (25) years or older shall be paid over and
distributed to him or her, free of any trust; the share of any
remaining issue who shall not then have reached the age of
twenty-five (25), shall be continued in trust and the Trustee
shall pay to or expend for the benefit of each such remaining
issue so much of the annual net income from his or her said
share, and so much of the principal thereof as the Trustee, in
its sole discretion, shall deem advisable for his or her
health, support, maintenance and education and shall add to the
principal of said share, and invest and distribute as a part
thereof, any income therefrom not expended under the terms
hereof. As each of such remaining issue shall reach the age of
twenty-five (25) years, the Trustee shall pay over and
distribute to him or her all of the balance of his or her said
share, free of any trust. If any such remaining issue shall
die before reaching the age of twenty-five (25) years, then
upon his or her death, the Trustee shall pay over and
distribute his or her said share, as then constituted, to the
Settlor's then living issue, per stirpes, subject to the
provisions of Subparagraphs A and B.
2. Provided further, however, if at any time the
principal of the portion(s) or part(s) of the Trust pertaining
to any issue of the Settlor shall be of such size that the
ATTORNEY JEANN R. TERRAZZANO, P.O. DRAWER 327, GUILFORD, CT 06437
continuation of such trust is, in the Trustee's sole
discretion, unwarranted, the Trustee may, in its sole
discretion, terminate the trust or such portion or part, in
which event it shall pay over and distribute the balance of
such portion or part, free of any trust, to such issue.
3. Provided further, however, no interest of any
beneficiary shall be subject to anticipation, to voluntary
transfer without the written consent of the Trustee, or to
involuntary transfer in any event.
C. For all purposes of this Trust, in determining
whether a person is a child or descendant of any other person,
legal adoption, single or successive, shall not be equivalent
in all respects to blood relationship.
D. Upon the death of the Settlor, if she shall have
no then living issue, or at any time prior to the complete
distribution of all trusts, if the Settlor shall have no then
living issue, the property as then constituted shall be
distributed as follows:

America, and may hold any trust property in the name of its
nominee or a nominee of any Affiliated Corporations.
ARTICLE VI

in the Trustee's discretion, becomes payable from the Trust
hereunder to a minor or other legally incompetent person or to
a person who, although not adjudged legally incompetent, is by
reason of illness or mental or physical disability unable in
the opinion of the Trustee to administer such amount properly,
then such amount may be applied by the Trustee for the benefit
of such beneficiary in such manner as it deems advisable,
whether by payment directly to such beneficiary or to any other
person deemed suitable, and the receipt by the distributee
shall be a complete discharge of the Trustee.
ARTICLE VII
The Trustee of the trusts shall render at least
annually to each person who is then an income beneficiary under
any trust created herein, a statement of account showing all
receipts, disbursements and distributions of both principal and
16
ATTORNEY JEANN R. TERRAZZANO, P.O. DRAWER 327, GUILFORD, CT 06437
income from such trust since the last such statement. Unless
such account is objected to in writing within sixty (60) days
from the rendition thereof, such account shall be deemed
approved as stated. The approval of such persons, or of their
guardians or legal representatives, of such statement shall, as
to all matters and transactions stated in the account or shown
by it, be final and binding on all persons, whether or not in
being, who are then or who thereafter may become entitled to
share in either the income or principal of any trust created
herein. Nevertheless, the Trustee shall at all times be
entitled to obtain a judicial settlement of its accounts. All
accountings shall be at the expense of the Trust.
ARTICLE VIII

FAMILY TRUST
TO: ADELINE W. HOLMES, as Trustee under a Trust Agreement
dated October 25, 1991, with the Settlor, ADELINE W.
HOLMES.
.... Pursuant to the right reserved to me under ARTICLE XII
of the above Trust Agreement, I amend that Trust Agreement as
follows:
FIRST: I hereby delete ARTICLE IV, and substitute the
following:
ARTICLE IV
The Trustee shall divide the Trust, as it is then
constituted into two equal portions one for each of the
Settlor's daughters, HELEN HOLMES GATELY, and MARY HOLMES
DAGUE. The share for HELEN HOLMES GATELY shall be distributed
in accordance with Subparagraph A. The share for MARY HOLMES

A. As to the share for the Settlor's daughter, HELEN
1
ATTORNEY JEANN R. TERRAZZANO. P.O. DRAWER 327, GUILFORD, CT 06437
HOLMES GATELY, the Trustee is directed to forthwith pay over
and distribute such share, free of any trust, to the Settlor's
said daughter. Provided, in the event said daughter is not
then living, and if the Settlor's son-in-law, BRIAN GATELY, is
then living, the sum of ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS
($100,000.00) shall be distributed to him free of any trust, if
he was married to and not legally separated from said daughter
at the time of her death. The balance of said daughter's share
shall be distributed to her then living issue, per stirpes, if
any, in accordance with the trust provisions under Subparagraph
C hereof. Provided further, in the event said daughter has no
then living issue, the balance of said share shall be added to
the share for the Settlor's daughter, MARY HOLMES DAGUE and
distributed in accordance with Subparagraph C hereof.
B. As to the share for the Settlor's daughter, MARY
HOLMES DAGUE, if living, the Trustee is directed to manage,
invest and reinvest said property in the following manner:
1. For a period of five (5) years after the
death of the Settlor, the Trustee shall pay to or for the
benefit of said daughter the income of the principal of said
Trust in quarter annual payments as nearly equal as may be
practical and as much of the principal as the Trustee, in its
sole discretion deems reasonable or necessary for her health,
2
A'I-I'ORNEY JEANN R. TERRAZZANO, P.O. DRAWER 327. GUILFORD, CT 06437
maintenance, support and education.
2. At the end of the five (5) year period, the
Trustee shall pay over to said daughter the principal then
remaining, absolutely.
3. Provided, however, if at any time the
principal of the Trust shall be of such size that the
continuation of such trust is, in the Trustee's sole
discretion, unwarranted, the Trustee may, in its sole
discretion, terminate the trust in which event it shall pay
over and distribute the balance trust to said daughter.
4. Provided further, however, that should said
daughter die before receiving all of the principal from said
Trust, then upon the death of said daughter, the Trustee shall
pay over and distribute the remaining principal and
undistributed income of said Trust to the descendants then
living of said child, per stirpes, absolutely, subject to the
terms of Subparagraph C hereof and in default of such
descendants then living of such child, to the Settlor's
descendants then living, per stirpes, absolutely, subject to
the provisions of Subparagraph C of this Article.
C. As to the per stirpes share of each of the issue
of each deceased child of the Settlor, the Trustee is directed

1. The share of any of such issue, age
twenty-five (25) years or older shall be paid over and
distributed to him or her, free of any trust; the share of any

shall pay to or expend for the benefit of each such remaining
issue so much of the annual net income from his or her said
share, and so much of the principal thereof as the Trustee, in
its sole discretion, shall deem advisable for his or her
health, support, maintenance and education and shall add to the
principal of said share, and invest and distribute as a part
thereof, any income therefrom not expended under the terms
hereof. As each of such remaining issue shall reach the age of
twenty-five (25) years, the Trustee shall pay over and
distribute to him or her all of the balance of his or her said
share, free of any trust. If any such remaining issue shall
die before reaching the age of twenty-five (25) years, then
upon his or her death, the Trustee shall pay over and
distribute his or her said share, as then constituted, to the
Settlor's then living issue, per stirpes, subject to the
provisions of Subparagraphs A through C.
2. Provided further, however, if at any time the
principal of the portion(s) or part(s) of the Trust pertaining
4
A'I-I'ORN£Y JE. ANN R. TERRAZZANO, P.O. DRAWER 327, GUILFORD, CT 06437

discretion, unwarranted, the Trustee may, in its sole
discretion, terminate the trust or such portion or part, in
which event it shall pay over and distribute the balance of
such portion or part, free of any trust, to such issue.
3. Provided further, however, no interest of any
beneficiary shall be subject to anticipation, to voluntary
transfer without the written consent of the Trustee, or to
involuntary transfer in any event.
D. For all purposes of this Trust, in determining
whether a person is a child or descendant of any other person,
legal adoption, single or successive, shall not be equivalent
in all respects to blood relationshiP.
