To retain, without incurring any liability, as investments, any property owned by me at the time of my death, as long as my Executor may deem it wise, and even though such property is not the kind of property an Executor would purchase as an investment; and even though to retain such property might violate sound diversification principles. 4. To cause any security or other property which may constitute a portion of my estate to be issued, held or registered in the Executor's own name, or in the name of a nominee, or in such form that title will pass by delivery. 5. To consent to the reorganization, consolidation, readjustment of the financial structure, or sale of the assets of any corporation or other organization, the securities of which constitute a portion of my estate, and to take any action with reference to such securities which, in the opinion of the Executor is necessary to obtain the benefit of any such reorganization, consolidation, readjustment or sale; to exercise any conversion privilege or subscription right given to my Executor as owner of any securities constituting a portion of my estate resulting from any reorganization, consolidation, readjustment, sale, conversion or subscription. 6. To pay all costs, taxes, charges and expenses in connection with the administration of my estate, including such compensations to Executor which shall be in accordance with established fees throughout the period of administration of my estate. 7.

To borrow money from any person, firm or corporation, including any corporation acting as an Executor hereunder, for the purpose of protecting and preserving or improving my estate hereunder; to execute promissory notes or other obligations for amounts so borrowed. 10. To employ legal counsel, accountants, brokers, investment advisors, custodians, managers and other agents and employees and to pay reasonable compensation out of my estate or any funds held hereunder to which said compensation is attributable. 11. To carry on any business owned or controlled by me at my death for whatever period of time my Executor shall think proper, and my Executor shall have the power to do any and all things my Executor deems necessary or appropriate, including the power to close out, liquidate or sell the business at such time and upon such terms as my Executor shall deem best. 12.
