SHILLINGSFORD, now domiciled in Cumberland ~C W ...~ Co~ftity, Pennsylvania, declare this to be my Last Will and Testament. I revoke all other wills and codicils that I may have previously made. Article I My just debts and expenses of my last illness, funeral, and administration of my estate shall be paid by my Executor from the principal of my residuary estate as soon as practicable after my death. Article II All inheritance, estate, and succession taxes (including interest and penalties thereon, but not 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 right 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 III If my husband, JOHN S. SHILLINGSFORD, survives me, I direct that all the furniture and furnishings, with the exception of my highback rocking chair, which I may own at the time rn ~~ ~~-; _,1 f~ c :'> <-~ Ct~r~ w.._., 1 7 cr1 ~) ~fi~ of my death that are located in a residence used by myself and my husband, may be used by him throughout his lifetime or until such time as he remarries. Upon my husband's death or remarriage, said furniture and furnishings shall be distributed in accordance with any memorandum I have handwritten or signed, located with my will or with my valuable papers and found within thirty (30) days of the probate of my will. I give, devise and bequeath all other tangible personal property not including the furniture and furnishings referenced in the preceding paragraph in accordance with any memorandum I have handwritten or signed, located with my will or with my valuable papers and found within thirty (30) days of the probate of my will. Gifts 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. To the extent no such memorandum is found, or all of my tangible personal property is not disposed of pursuant thereto, my tangible personal property shall be added to my residuary estate and pass under Article VI hereof. Article IV It is my intent that all life insurance, annuities, individual retirement accounts and any other assets in which I may designate a beneficiary will pass to the beneficiary that I have named and will not be controlled by the provisions of this Will. It is also my intent that any assets I own jointly with another with rights of survivorship or a presumed right to survivorship which such joint ownership was created before or after this Will, will pass to the surviving joint owner and will not be controlled by the provisions of this Will. Specifically, I acknowledge that any real property, bonds, bank accounts, mutual funds, and stocks that I own jointly with my husband, JOHN S. SHILLINGSFORD, at the time of my death will pass to him by operation of law, 2 should he survive me, and will become his sole and individual property as the surviving joint owner. Article V If my husband, JOHN S. SHILLINGSFORD, predeceases me and if at the time of my death, I own that real property located at 29 Central Boulevard, Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, then such real property shall be sold and the net proceeds, after payment of any outstanding debts, liens, taxes, utilities and/or inheritance tax owed against the property, shall be distributed as follows: A. The lesser of TWENTY SEVEN THOUSAND ($27,000.00) DOLLARS or THIRTEEN AND ONE-HALF PERCENT (13 '/z%) of the net proceeds to be divided 1N EQUAL SHARES between my children, LYNDA BLACK, of Richmond, Virginia, per stirpes, and WILLIAM BLACK, of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, per stirpes; B. The lesser of SIXTY THOUSAND ($60,000.00) DOLLARS or THIRTY PERCENT (30%) of the net proceeds to be divided 1N EQUAL SHARES between my husband's two (2) children, JOHN S.

FIFTY PERCENT (50%) of the balance, if any, of the remaining. net proceeds to be divided IN EQUAL SHARES between my husband's two (2) children, JOHN S. SHILLINGSFORD, JR., per stirpes, and DAVID S.

If a beneficiary fails to survive me by thirty (30) days, but leaves descendants who survive me by thirty (30) days, those descendants shall receive, per stirpes, the share the beneficiary would have received had he or she survived me by thirty (30) days. The share of any deceased child who does not have living issue shall be distributed to my remaining child, per stirpes. Article VII I nominate, constitute and appoint my daughter, LYNDA BLACK, as Executrix of my Last Will and Testament. In the event of the renunciation, death, or inability to act, for any reason whatsoever of my Executrix, I nominate, constitute and appoint my son, WILLIAM BLACK, as successor Executor of my Last Will and Testament. I direct that my Executrix or successor Executor be permitted to serve without bond. In addition to those powers granted by law, I grant them power to distribute in cash or in kind, in like or in unlike shares, and to file any qualified disclaimer I could have filed if living. My Executrix or successor Executor shall receive reasonable compensation for services rendered to my estate. Article VIII In addition to the powers conferred by law, I authorize my Executrix or successor Executor, in her/his absolute discretion: (a) to retain in the form received and to sell either at public or private sale, any real estate or personal property except that which I specifically bequeath herein, 4 T (b) to manage real estate, (c) to invest and reinvest in all forms of property without being confined to legal investments, and without regard to the principal of diversification, (d) to exercise any option or right arising from the ownership of investments, (e) to compromise claims without court approval and without consent of any beneficiary, (f) to file any federal income tax return for any year for which I have not filed such return prior to my death, (g) to make distributions in cash or in kind, or in both, and to determine the value of any such property, (h) to employ any attorney, investment advisor, or other agent deemed necessary by my Executrix or successor Executor; and to pay from my estate reasonable compensation for all their services, (i) to conduct alone or with others, any business in which I am engaged in, or have an interest in at time of my death, and (j) to receive reasonable compensation in accordance with their standard schedule of fees in effect while their services are performed.
