LAST WILL AND TESTAlVIENT `=,.~ ,
- ~;:
OF ~ ~~'
LOUISE ARNDT MAY ~ ~~
I, LOUISE ARNDT MAY, of Camp Hill, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania,
being of sound mind and disposing memory, though I realize the uncertainty of this life, I have full
confidence and trust in my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, in His death on the cross for my sins and
in His shed blood as an atonement for my soul; and I know by faith that because of His sacrifice on
the cross for me I have eternal life, do hereby make this Will, hereby revoking all my former Wilis and
Codicils:
Article One: Tangible Personal Property:
§ 1.1 I bequeath all my tangible personal property to my Husband, Donald E. May,
("My Husband"), if he survives. If My Husband does not survive me, then I bequeath all my tangible
personal property in accordance with the terms of a personal property memorandum I may prepaze.
If no such memorandum is located or received by the Executor within 60 days after being appointed
as such, after conducting a reasonable seazch for such memorandum, the Executor shall be held
harmless for distributing such property as hereinafter provided.
§ 1.2 I bequeath such assets not disposed of by such memorandum, or all of such
property if no such memorandum is so located or received, to my children living at my death to be
divided among them in as nearly equal shares as they agree. In the event of irreconcilable
disagreement among my children, they shall take turns selecting individual items with my oldest child
making the first selection. Ariy items not so selected shall be sold and the proceeds shall pass as a
pazt of my residuary estate.
§1.3 To the extent practicable in the Executor's sole discretion, I bequeath any
policies of insurance on such property to the beneficiary entitled to such property.
§ 1.4 I direct that the expenses of storing, packing, shipping, insuring and delivering
any such property to the beneficiary entitled thereto shall be paid by the Exacuter as an
administrative expense of my estate.
Article Two: Residue:
§2. I I devise and bequeath all the residue of my estate to My Husband, if he survives
me. If My Husband does not survive me, then the entire residue of my estate shall be divided and
distributed to my four daughters, per stirpes; provided, however, that I give to the Trustee
hereinafter named any such share passing hereunder for the benefit of any beneficiary of mine who
shall not have attained the age of eighteen (18) years, to be held, administered and disposed of in
accordance with Article Three hereof (the "Beneficiary's Trust") for the benefit of such Beneficiary,
My four daughters in order of age are Kathleen E. May-Hartzok of Chambersburg, PA; Rebecca A.
May-Salerno of Damascus, MD; Amy L. May-Snider of Gaithersburg, MD; and Meg Ann May-
Hobbs of Mechanicsburg, PA.
Article Three: The Beneficiary's Trust:
§3.] The Trustee shall hold, manage, invest and reinvest the assets of the
Beneficiary's Trust, collect the income thereof and:
§3. I.1 While the beneficiazy of the Beneficiary's Trust (the "Beneficiary")
is under eighteen (18) years of age, the Trustee shall apply to or for the benefit of the
Beneficiary so much of the net income as the Trustee shall from time to time deem
necessary or proper for the Beneficiary's health, maintenance, support and complete
education, including prepazatory, college and graduate education, and professional,
vocational or technical training, taking into account other available funds, including
the Beneficiary's assets. The Trustee shall annually accumulate any net income not so
distributed a_nd add the same to the principal of the trust property.
§3.1.2 After the Beneficiary attains eighteen (18) years of age, the Trustee
shall distribute to or for the benefit of the Beneficiary the net income of the
Beneficiary's Trust in quarter-annual installments, or more frequently if the Trustee
deems it advisable, and so much of the principal as the Trustee shall from time to time
deem necessazy or proper for the Beneficiary's health, maintenance, support and
complete education, including college and graduate education, and professional,
vocational or technical training, and to assist the Beneficiary with reasonable wedding
expenses, in the purchase of a principal residence or in the establishment of a
profession or business considered a good risk by the Trustee, taking into account
other available funds, including the Beneficiary's assets.
§3.1.3 At any time after the Beneficiary] attains eighteen (18) years of age, the
Beneficiary may withdraw any or all of the principal of the Beneficiary's Trust.
§3.1.4 If the Beneficiary dies before the complete termination of the
Beneficiary's Trust, the Trustee shall distribute the property then held in trust to such
persons or corporations, (including the Beneficiary's estate), in such amounts and
upon such trusts, terms and condition, a.s the Beneficiary by last Will may appoint by
specific reference to this general power of appointment; provided, however, any
portion of the trust property not subject to the Beneficiary's power of withdrawal
immediately prior to the Beneficiary's death may only be appointed to one or more
ofthe Beneficiary's issue, in such amounts and upon such trusts, terms and conditions
as the Beneficiary by last Will may appoint by specific reference to this special power
of appointment. Any property not so appointed shall be distributed to the
Beneficiary's then living issue, per stirpes, or if none, to my then living issue, per
stirpes.
Article Four: Appointment of Fiduciaries:
§4.1 I appoint My Husband as Executor of this Will. If My Husband is unable or
unwilling to serve or continue to serve, for any reason whatsoever, I appoint my daughter, Kathleen
E. May-Hartzok, to serve as first contingent Executrix. If Kathleen E. May-Hartzok is unable or
unwilling to serve or continue to serve for any reason whatsoever, I appoint my daughter, Rebecca
A. May-Salerno, to serve as second contingent Executrix. If Rebecca A. May-Salerno is unable or
unwilling to serve or continue to serve for any reason whatsoever, I appoint my daughter, Amy L.
May-Snider, to serve as third contingent Executrix. If Amy L. May-Snider is unable or unwilling to
serve or continue to serve for any reason whatsoever, I appoint my daughter, Meg Ann May-Hobbs,
to serve as fourth contingent Executrix. All references herein to the "Executor" shall mean my
originally appointed Executor or my successor Executrix, as the case may be.
§4.2 My Executor shall also be the Trustee of any trust and Guardian of any property
interest which may be created under this Will for minor children or persons who are incapacitated.
Article Five: Powers of Fiduciaries:
§5.1 No fiduciary under this Will shall be required to give bond or other security for
the faithful performance of the fiduciary's duties.
§S.2 rlny such fiduciary shall have the following powers, in addition to those given
bylaw:
§5.2.1 To invest in, accept and retain any real or personal property, including
stock of a corporate fiduciary or its holding company, without restriction to legal
investments;
§5.2.2 To sell, exchange, paztition or lease for any period of time any real or
personal property and to give options therefor for cash or credit, with or without
security;
§5.2.3 To borrow money from any person including any fiduciary acting
hereunder, and to mortgage or pledge any real or personal property;
§5.2.4 To hold shares of stock or other securities in nominee registration
form, including that of a clearing corporation or depository, or in book entry form or
unregistered or in such other form as will pass by delivery;
§S.2.S To engage in litigation and compromise, arbitrate or abandon claims;
§5.2,6 To make distributions in cash, or in kind at current values, or partly
in each, allocating specific assets to particulaz distributes on a non-pro rata basis, and
for such purposes to make reasonable determinations of current values;
§5.2.7 To make elections, decisions, concessions and settlements in
connection with all income, estate, inheritance, gift or other tax returns and the
payment of such taxes, without obligation to adjust the distributive share of income
or principal of any person affected thereby;
§5.2.8 To allocate, in the Executor's sole and absolute discretion, any portion
of my exemption under Section 2631(a) of the Internal Revenue Code to any property
as to which I am the transferor, including any property transferred by me during my
lifetime as to which I did not make an allocation prior to my death;
§5.2.9 To create, except when the fiduciary is a beneficiary of the subject
mist, with respect to all or any part of the principal of any trust hereunder, including
a pecuniary amount, by a written instrument a general testamentary power of
appointment within the meaning of Section 2041 of the Internal Revenue Code in any
beneficiary thereof and to eliminate such power for all or any part of such principal
as to which such power was previously created and to divide trust principal into two
fractional shazes based upon the then portion of the trust that would be includable in
the gross estate of the beneficiary holding such power if he died immediately before
such division (in which case the power shall be over the entire principal of one share
and not the other), with each shaze being administered as a separate trust, unless such
fiduciary shall therea.4er elect to combine such separate trusts into a single trust; to
exercise the foregoing discretion to create or eliminate a general testamentary power
of appointment when such fiduciary determines that the inclusion of the property
affected thereby in the beneficiary's gross estate may achieve a significant savings in
transfer taxes by having a federal estate tax in lieu of a Chapter 13 tax imposed by the
Internal Revenue Code on the property subject to such power of appointment or may
achieve significant income tax benefits;
§5.2.10 To disclaim any interest I may have in any estate if the Executor
deems such disc]aimer to be in the best interests of my estate and the beneficiaries
thereof
§5.2.1 I To terminate any trust created herein, the principal of which is or
becomes too small in the Trustee's discretion to make the establishment or
continuance of the trust advisable, and to make immediate distribution of the then
remaining trust property to the beneficiary then entitled to the income of the trust
property or, ifthere is more than one beneficiary, to the beneficiaries then entitled to
the income of the trust property in proportion to their respective interests therein
or, if such interests are not defined, in equal shares to such beneficiaries; provided,
however, no Trustee shall participate in any decision to terminate such trust if by
reason of such termination such trustee could receive a distribution of trust property
from such trust as aforesaid. The receipts and releases of the distributee(s) will
terminate absolutely the right of all persons who might otherwise have a future
interest in the trust, whether vested or contingent, without notice to them and without
the necessity of filing an account in any court; and
§5.2.12 To merge any trust created hereunder with any other trust or trusts
created by me or my spouse under will or deed, if the terms of any such trust are then
substantially similar and held for the primary benefit of the same person or persons.
Article Six: Provision for Taxes:
§6.1 All estate taxes, inheritance taxes, transfer taxes and other taxes of a similar
nature payable by reason of my death to any government or subdivision thereof upon or with respect
to any property subject to any such tax ("Death Taxes"), and any penalties thereon, shall be paid by
the Executor out of the principal of that portion of my estate disposed of by Article Two of this Will,
and all interest with respect to any such taxes shall be paid by the Executor out of the income or
principal or partly out of the income and partly out of the principal of such portion of my estate, in
5
the absolute discretion of the Executor, without reimbursement from or apportionment among the
beneficiaries, recipients or owners of such property for any such taxes, penalties or interest; provided,
however, the Executor shall not pay any such taxes, penalties or interest attributable to any property
included in my estate solely because of a power of appointment thereover which I possess but have
not exercised or any qualified terminable interest property; provided further, however, the Executor
shall not pay any supplemental federal estate tax, or any penalties or interest related thereto, imposed
by Section 4980A(d) of the Internal Revenue Code, which supplemental federal estate tax, together
with any penalties or interest related thereto, shall be borne by the recipients of the qualified plan
benefit (including my estate if it is a recipient of any such benefit) giving rise to such supplemental
federal estate tax in proportion to their respective interests therein.
Article Seven: Provision for Debts and Expenses:
§7.1 I direct that any of my legally enforceable debts, any expenses of my last illness,
funeral and burial, and any of the administrative expenses of my estate shall be paid from the principal
of that portion of my estate disposed of by Article Two of this Will.
Article Eight: Miscellaneous Provisions:
§8.1 As used in this Will, the term "Internal Revenue Code" shall mean the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time, or the corresponding provision of subsequent
law.
§8.2 Whenever the Trustee is directed to distribute property to or for the benefit of
any beneficiary who is under (a) eighteen years of age, or (b) a legal disability or otherwise suffers
from an illness or mental or physical disability that would make distribution directly to such
