HOCI-1, widow of North Newton Township, Cumbe~~la~d Comity, Pennsylvania, (mailing address: 465 Shippensburg Road, Newville, Pennsylvania 1~~~4~1),bein-°'of sound and disposing mind, memory and understanding, do hereby make, publish and'declare th'--as and for my Last Will and Testament hereby revoking and making void any and all Wills by me at any time heretofore made. 1. I direct my hereinafter named Executor or Executrices to pay all of my dust debts and funeral expenses as soon after my death as may be found convenient to do so. I further direct that all inheritance, transfer, succession, estate and death taxes which may be payable on account of my death shall be payable from the residue of my estate regardless of whether the assets upon which such taxes are based are included in my probate estate. 2. I declare that I am the widow of W.Clair Hoch, deceased, and that we had no children by that marriage. I further declare that I have one child by a previous marriage, Judith A. Hockensmith of 363 Green Spring Road, Newville, Pennsylvania, and that my husband had one child by a previous marriage, Robert L. Hoch. 3. I give and bequeath the sum of $25,000.00 to my step son, Robert L. Hoch. 4. I give and bequeath all my tangible personal property to my daughter Judith. Hockensmith, but should she predecease me or fail to survive my by a period of ninety (90) days, then in such event I direct my hereinafter named Executrix or Executor to sell said tangible personal property at public or private sale and the proceeds shall be added to the remainder of my estate. 5. If at the time of my death I am the owner of my current home at 465 Shippensburg Road, Newville, Pennsylvania (North Newton Township), I direct my Executrix or Executor, as soon after my death as she or he deem appropriate to sell the said real estate and to pay the net proceeds from said sale, after paying all of the expenses associated with its sale in equal shares to my daughter, Judith A. Hockensmith. If I have sold my said house prior to my death, I give an bequeath to my daughter, Judith A. Hockensmith, a sum equal to the lesser of the net proceeds I received from the sale of said real estate or the balance of the funds held by me with financial institution at the time of my death. Should my daughter, Judith A. Hockensmith, predecease me or fail to survive me by a period of ninety (90) days, then the share which she would have otherwise received shall pass to her issue per stirpes. 6. All the rest residue and remainder of my estate, real, personal, or mixed and wheresoever the same shall be situate I give, devise and bequeath to my daughter, Judith A. Hockensmith, provided that she shall survive me by a period of ninety (90) days. In the event that my said daughter should predecease me or fail to survive me by the aforesaid period of ninety (90) days, then in such event all the rest residue and remainder of my estate, real, personal, and mixed and wheresoever the same may be situate I give devise and bequeath in equal shares to such of her children as shall survive me by a period of ninety (90) days, share any deceased child would have received to pass to his or her issue per stirpes, and if there be no issue such shares shall lapse and be added to the remaining share or shares per stirpes. 7. Should any person less than 21 years of age be entitled to distribution from my estate in such event the share that person would otherwise have received shall be paid to my hereinafter named Executrix or Executor in Trust. I authorize the herein named Trustee to receive and invest the same, and to pay the income arising there from, together with so much of the principle there of as in his or her opinion is necessary or desirable to be expended for the proper maintenance, support, and education of such person, to or for the benefit of such person, and upon such person obtaining 21 years of age to pay to him or her the then remaining principle together with any undistributed income. 8. In addition to the powers conferred by law, my herein named Executrix or Executor and Trustees are empowered: a.

To hold the trust corpus in one or more consolidated funds in which separate shares shall have undivided interests. d. To sell at public or private sale for cash or upon credit, or partly for cash and partly on credit, and upon such terms and conditions as shall be deemed proper, any part or parts of the trust estate, and no purchaser at any such sale shall be bound to inquire into the expediency or propriety of any such sale or to see to the application of the purchase moneys arising therefrom. e. ~ To keep on hand and uninvested such money as may be deemed proper and for such period as may be found expedient. f. To compromise, settle or arbitrate any claim or demand in favor of or against the trust estate. g. And authorized in the discharge of fiduciary duties, to employ counsel and to determine and to pay such counsel reasonable compensation which shall be charged against the principal or income of the trust fund, and shall further be entitled to charge against the principal or income such other reasonable expenses and charges as may be necessary and proper to incur for the proper discharge of fiduciary duties and for the proper management and administration of the trust estate. h. In making any division of property into shares for the purpose of any distribution thereof directed by the provisions of the trust, to make such division or distribution, either in cash or in kind, or partly in cash and partly in kind, as shall be deemed most expedient, and in making any division or distribution in kind may allot any specific security or property or any undivided interest therein to any one or more of such shares, and to that end may appraise any or all of the property so to be allotted and the judgment as to the propriety of such allotment and as to the relative value for purposes of distribution of the securities or property so allotted shall be final and conclusive upon all persons interested in the trust or in the division or distribution thereof. i.
