including any generation skipping tax) payable by reason of my death shall be paid out of and be
charged generally against the principal of my residuary estate without reimbursement from any
person. This provision is not a waiver of any fight which my Executor has to claim reimbursement
for any such taxes which become payable as the result of any property over which I have the power
of appointment.
Article IH
I give, devise and bequeath in accordance with any memorandum which I have either
handwritten or signed, located with my will or with my valuable papers and found within 30 days of
the probate of my will. Girls may only be to persons who survive me or to organizations which exist
at my death, and if there is a conflict, the memorandum having the latest date shall govern.

Pennsylvania. In the event that SCOTT R. FITZPATRICK predeceases me or does not survive me

qualified disclaimer I could have filed if living. My Executor and successor Executor shall receive
reasonable compensation for services rendered to my estate.
Article VI
In addition to the powers conferred by law, I authorize my Executor and successor Executor,
