I, Betty R. Goodhart, of 24 Shippensburg Mobile Estates, Shippensburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, being of sound and disposing mind, memory and under. standing, do hereby declare this to be my will, hereby revoking any and all former wills and codicils thereto by me heretofore made. I. I direct that all my just debts and funeral expenses, including all expenses of my last illness, shall be paid from my estate as soon as practicable after my decease as a part of the expense of the administration of my estate. II. I give, devise and bequeat:Z the residue of my estate of every nature and wherever situate to my children, namely Alan Goodhart, Ruth Wiser, Laura Motta, and Edwin Goodhart, Jr., in equal shares, provided that the share of any child who predeceases me or dies on or before the thirtieth day following my death shall be distributed to said beneficiary's issue, per stirpes, living on the thirty- first day following my death, and in default of any such then- living issue, such share shall be added to the share or shares of my other children. t I'~ . In the event that anyone entitled to a share of my estate shall be under the age of twenty-one years at the time for distribution to such beneficiary, ]: constitute and appoint Alan Goodhart as trustee of any property which passes either under this will or otherwise to said beneficiary. Should Alan Goodhart predecease me or fail to qualify as trustee, I appoint Edwin Goodhart, Jr., as trustee of any property which passes either under this will or otherwise to said beneficiary. Said trustee shall in the trustee's sole discretion and without order of court, use principal as well as income from time to time as may appear to be necessary for the beneficiary's we:ifare, comfort, medical care, recreation, support and educat~_on, without responsibility to the beneficiary or to any person taking care of the. beneficiary; and the remaining balance in tY~e hands of said trustee shall be distributed to said beneficiary when the beneficiary attains the age of twenty-one years. If such beneficiary dies prior to attaining the age of twenty-one years, eai.d trustee is authorized in the trustee's discretion to pay part or all o:F the beneficiary's funeral expenses and the remaining balance in the hands of said trustee shall be distributed to the bene~iciary's personal representative., In the eveni: t}:e funds held by the trustee for any beneficiary become in the o~:in2.on of the trustee too small for Page 2 proper and efficient administration, the trustee, in the trustee's sole discretion, may deposit such funds in a savings account in the name of the beneficiary. IV. Any fiduciary under this will shall have the following powers in addition to those vested in them by law and by other provisions of my will applicable to all property whether principal or income, including property held for minors, exercisable without Court approval, and effective until actual distribution of all property: A. To retain any and all of the assets of my estate, real or personal, without regard to any principle of diversification of risk. B. To invest in all forms of property including stock, common trust funds and mortgage investment funds without restriction to investments authorized for Pennsylvania fiduciaries as they dev~m proper, without regard to any principle of diversification of risk. C. To sell at public or private sale, to exchange or to lease for any period of time any re«1 or personal property and to give options for sales, exchanges or leases, for such prices and upon such terms or conditions as they deem proper. D. To allocate receipts and expenses to principal or income or partly to each as they from time to time think proper. Page 3 E. To compromise any claim or controversy. F. To distribute in cash or in kind or partly in each. G. To hold property in their names without designation of any fiduciary capacity or in the name of a nominee or unregistered. H. I wish to advise my executor that I have a number of items of personal property in my home which belong to my children. It is my desire that they nat be considered a part of my estate and that my children be permitted to remove them from my house following my death. V. I direct that all taxes that may be assessed in consequence of my death of whatever nature and by whatever jur.i.sdiction imposed, shall be paid from my residuary estate as a party of the expense of the administration of my estate. v;~ I appoint my son, Alan Goodhart, as executor of this my will. Should my son predecease me, fail to qualify or cease to act, I appoint my son, Edwin Goodhart, J3-., as executor of this my will. Page 4 vII.
