Kurtz, Jr. a/k/a Clem Kurtz, presently residing and domiciled in the Borough of Dauphin, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, being of sound mind and disposing memory and not under the restraint or undue influence of any person, do make, publish and declare this to be my Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking all former wills and codicils executed by me. ITEM I: I hereby direct that all my just debts, including unpaid charitable pledges whether or not the same are legally enforceable obligations of my estate, the expenses of my last illness, funeral and burial, and the cost of a suitable marker at my grave, and the taxes or other expenses in connection with the probate of this Will and administering my estate, shall be paid by my Executrix, hereinafter named, from my residuary estate as part of the expense of administration of my estate. ITEM II: I hereby nominate and appoint my wife Ann Marie Kurtz, as the Executrix of my estate. In case of her death, c:~~si~~a~~km.W;~ November 8, 1994 either before or after mine, or if she should resign or be disqualified or unable to act, or be removed, then and i.n such event I nominate and appoint my son Michael Kurtz of Dauphin, Pennsylvania and my daughter Joyce Kurtz of Newport, Pennsylvania as Co-Executors, and confer upon them in such capacity all of the rights, privileges, and powers which I have given unto my wife as Executrix. ITEM III: I devise, bequeath and appoint to my wife, Ann Marie Kurtz, all of my property, or every nature and wherever situate, providing she shall survive me by sixty days. ITEM IV: Should my wife predecease me or die on or before the sixtieth day following my death, I devise and bequeath my estate of every nature and wherever situate to my children, Gary Kurtz, Michael Kurtz, Arthur Kurtz, and Joyce Kurtz or those of their issue who survive me on the sixty-first day following my death in equal shares, share and share alike. However, as my sons Gary and Michael and my daughter Joyce have jointly purchased a parcel of land comprised of ten (10) acres more or less, currently held in the name of Gary Kurtz, and as one of them may wish to purchase the interests of my other children named above but have insufficient funds to do so, I direct that the funds necessary to buy out the remaining equitable owners at the fair market value of their interest be paid from my estate with a corresponding reduction in the share to which he or she c:~~si~aa~~~.W~ November 8, 1994 2 may be entitled pursuant to this paragraph. Should they so desire, and if municipal ordinances permit, they shall have the option to subdivide the land into proportionate shares. In such event, the conditions expressed in this paragraph shall not be operative, and my children shall be entitled to share in my estate on an equal basis with no reduction. ITEM V: If any beneficiary hereunder should die within sixty (60) days after my death, he shall be deemed to have predeceased me for all purposes hereunder. ITEM vI: My personal representatives, trustees, and guardian of any minor children, 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, including property held for minors, whether principal or income, exercisable without court approval, and effective until actual distribution of all property: A. To retain any or all of the assets of my estate, real or personal, without regard to any principle of diversification, risk or productivity. B• To invest in all forms of property without restriction to investments authorized for Pennsylvania fiduciaries, as they deem proper, without regard to any principle of diversification, risk, or productivity. C:\.vp5lkd\clem.wil November 8, 1994 3 C. To sell at public or private sale, to exchange or to lease, for any period of time, any real 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 deem proper at their sole discretion. E• To borrow money from any person or institution, including any Executor or Trustee and to mortgage or pledge any or all real or personal property as my executors and trustees in their sole discretion shall choose. F. To compromise any claim or controversy. G. To exercise any option, right or privilege granted in insurance policies or in other investments. H• To repair, alter or improve any real or personal property. I. To distribute in cash or in kind or partly in each at valuations fixed by the Trustee. J• To purchase investments at premiums and to charge premiums to income or principal or partly to each. K• To subscribe for or to exercise options for stocks, bonds or other investments; to join in any plan of lease, mortgage, merger, consolidation, reorganization, foreclosure, or voting trust and to deposit securities thereunder; and to generally exercise all the rights of security holders or employees of any corporation. c:~~si~oa~~~.W;~ x~~~r s, i~a 4 L. To register securities in the name of a nominee or in such manner that title shall pass by delivery. M• To assume continuance of the status of any beneficiary with reference to death, marriage, divorce, illness, incapacity, or other change in the absence of information deemed reliable, without liability for disbursements made on such assumption. N• To add to the principal of any trust created by this instrument any real or personal property received from any person by Deed, Will or in any other manner. ~• To exercise all power, authority and discretion given by this instrument after the termination of any trust created herein until the same is fully distributed. P. To employ attorneys, accountants, engineers and such other persons, professional or otherwise, as may be necessary for the proper administration of this estate and to pay their compensation from such funds. Q• I authorize my personal representatives to pay an amount which they shall determine as proper and reasonable to compensate the guardian of the person of any minor beneficiary. It is my desire that whoever should assume the responsibility of raising minor children should be properly compensated from my estate or any Trust created herein. ITS oII: If my wife and I shall die under such circumstances that the order of our deaths cannot be established c:~~si~aa~~~.Wu xo~~t~r s, i~a 5 it shall be conclusively presumed for all purposes of this Will that I survived my wife. ITEM VIII: I direct that my personal representatives, trustees, and guardians, as well as their successors, shall not be required to give bond for the faithful performance of their duties in any jurisdiction.
