()~ -- (.~3a,~ PETITION TO TERMINATE TRUST AND NOW, comes Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company by and through its attorneys, MARTSON DEARDORFF WILLIAMS OTTO GILROY & FALLER, and hereby petitions for the termination of a trust as follows: 1. The Petitioner is Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company ("M&T"), a New York corporation with a local office at One West High Street, Carlisle, Pennsylvania. 2. M&T is the successor to Farmers Trust Company. 3. The above-named decedent, Sarah McCrea Chapman Jones ("Decedent"), died on July 28, 1978. 4. The Register of Wills admitted to probate as the last will and testament of Decedent a writing dated September 8, 1976 ("Will"). A copy of the Will is attached hereto and incorporated as Exhibit "A." 5. Decedent's Will established numerous trusts. 6. Paragraph Nineteenth of the Will devised the "Chapman Lodge and its contents, together with the land adjacent thereto" to Farmers Trust Company and John McCrea III in trust ("Chapman Lodge Trust"). 7. Initially, the Chapman Lodge was to be held in trust for the benefit of Decedent's son, Alfred McCrea Chapman, for "as long as he lives or as long as he has any need for it." 8. Thereafter, the Chapman Lodge and the land adjacent thereto would be held for the use and benefit of the children of Alfred McCrea Chapman, John McCrea and Katherine Jane .~; ;`--~ McCrea Morns, until the youngest child of Alfred McCrea Chapman reached the age oftwenty-one, at which time the Chapman Lodge would be conveyed to Alfred McCrea Chapman's children as joint life tenants. 9. At the termination of the life estates of the joint tenants, or after renunciation of the life estates, the Chapman Lodge and the adjacent land would be distributed to St. John's Episcopal Church in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, free of trust. 10. Paragraph Twentieth devised $35,000 to the same trustees in trust for the maintenance and upkeep of the "Chapman Lodge and its adj acent acreage" during the term of the Chapman Lodge Trust. 11. The funds provided for in Decedent's Will for the upkeep of the Chapman Lodge have been exhausted. 12. The current annual fixed expenses, including utilities, taxes and insurance, for the Chapman Lodge and the adjacent land is approximately $5,300.00. 13. Alfred McCrea Chapman no longer has any need for the Chapman Lodge and the adjacent land. 14. Specifically, Alfred McCrea Chapman suffers from chronic serious mental illness and therefore, has no need for the Chapman Lodge and the adjacent land. 15. Additionally, Alfred Chapman definitively expressly stated that he had no desire to continue with his interest in the Chapman Lodge. A copy of correspondence from Friends Hospital dated July 26, 1988, confirming this fact is attached hereto and incorporated as Exhibit "B." 16. Because Alfred McCrea Chapman no longer has any need for the property, his children became joint life tenants in the Chapman Lodge and its adjacent land. 17. The names and last known addresses of Alfred McCrea Chapman's children are as follows: a. Henry L. Chapman, 355 Lonely Goose Circle, Harleysville, Pennsylvania 19438; b. Karen E. Chapman, 1858 San Lorenzo Avenue, Berkley, California 94707; and c. Katherine Chapman Michalka, 250 Loche Lloyd Parkway, Belton, Missouri 64042. 18. On February 16, 2007, the co-trustees of the Chapman Lodge Trust wrote to the children of Alfred McCrea Chapman to inquire whether any of them desired to maintain their life tenancy in the Chapman Lodge and assume financial responsibility for maintaining the property. A copy of this correspondence is attached hereto and incorporated as Exhibit "C." 19. The only response to the February 16, 2007, correspondence was from Katherine Chapman Michalka who affirmed that she no longer had any interest in her life tenancy of the Chapman Lodge and that she agreed to formally terminate her interest in the trust. A copy of Katherine Chapman Michalka's response is attached hereto and incorporated as Exhibit "D." 20. Neither Henry L. Chapman nor Karen E. Chapman responded to the correspondence of February 16, 2007. 21. Co-trustee M&T now wishes to terminate the trust so as to make an immediate distribution of the Chapman Lodge and its adjacent property to St. John's Episcopal Church in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. 22. Continuance of the Chapman Lodge Trust is no longer necessary to achieve any material purpose of the trust and in fact, interferes with the purpose of the trust. WHEREFORE, Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company requests that this Honorable Court terminate the Chapman Lodge Trust and permit the immediate distribution of the Chapman Lodge and its adjacent property to St. John's Episcopal Church in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.

Pennsylvania 19124 215-831-4600 RE: Alfred Chapman In response to your letter of April 1, 1988, I have finally been able to talk to Mr. Alfred Chapman about the Chapman Lodge. This conversation took place today, July 26, 1988, and Mr. Chapman was aware of his interest in the lodge and when it was built and that he still maintained that interest financially. When asked whether he wanted to continue an interest in it, he said very definitely that he has no desire to continue his interest and would be very willing to sign his interest over to his three children. Therefore, you can have the required papers either brought.to him yourself, or sent to Greystone or myself, and we will insure that it be signed by A1, as long as he doesn't change his mind.

Her intention being to provide a home for your father should he have need of it. She also made provision for your use of the property during your lifetimes. Unfortunately the costs of maintaining the property have out stripped the funds, which your grandmother provided under the terms of her Will. Your grandmotheils Will also provides that when your father is no longer living, or has no need for Chapman Lodge that we can transfer the property to the three of you as joint life tenants. This would mean that you would become responsible for the care and maintenance of the Lodge. We estimate that the annual fixed expenses for the Lodge are approximately $5,300.00. These expenses include the utilities, taxes and insurance. The purpose of this letter is to determine if you are willing to assume the responsibility for the Lodge. If so, please acknowledge your willingness by returning the enclosed form designating that you are so willing. Should you not wish to take on this responsibility, please indicate on the form that you do not wish to assume the responsibility. Your grandmother§ Will provides for the ultimate distribution of the Lodge to St. John's Episcopal Church upon the termination of your life interests as well as your fathers. Should you choose not to assume the responsibility for the Lodge, it would be our intention to make distribution to the church immediately. Should you have any questions, please feel free to call.
