ITEM ONE: I direct the payment of my debts and the expenses of my last illness and funeral from my estate as soon after my death as conveniently may be done. If there be no cemetery lot available for my interment, owned by me at the time of my death, I authorize my personal representative to purchase such cemetery lot with a contract for perpetual care, using therefore funds from my estate, and I authorize my personal representative to cause title to or ownership of such lot so purchased to be vested in such person as my personal representative shall designate. Further, in this connection, I authorize my personal representative to expend funds from my estate, in such amount as my personal representative shall consider necessary and desirable, for the purchase, erection and inscription of a suitable marker for my grave. ``~ c_7 -:, ~ - c'r~ ~ r. -~ --, --~' C> _~ _,_ ~~._ -r-, ; _._ ;~- '~- .,~ CJ --ri ITEM TWO: I give, devise and bequeath such of my personal property as may be listed on a signed and dated memorandum kept with my Will to the persons named thereon, provided they survive my death. Should such a memorandum not be found with my Will, it shall be conclusively presumed that none was prepared, and all of my personal property shall pass according to the remaining provisions of this Will. ITEM THREE: I give, devise and bequeath the rest, residue and remainder of my estate of whatever nature and wherever situate to my brother Montgomery Banister's children, William N. Banister, Kim E. Banister, Robin W. Banister and James M. Banister, in equal shares, per stirpes. ITEM FOUR: I direct that no Executrix or other fiduciary named, nominated, or appointed by this my Last Will and Testament shall be required to post any bond or give any security of any type for any purpose whatsoever, any law or rule of the court of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or any other jurisdiction to the contrary notwithstanding. I direct that the law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania shall apply to any interpretation or application of the validity of this instrument. ITEM FIVE: Any and all payment or payments of any sum or sums, whether in cash or in kind and whether for principal or income, payable to an heir, or any of them, shall be made upon the sole receipt of the respective individual to whom the payment is made, and free from anticipation, alienation, assignment, attachment, and pledge, and free from control by the creditors of any such beneficiary. ITEM SIX: I confer upon my Executrix the right to sell or otherwise convert any real or personal property at public or private sale, at such time or time, in such manner, and for such price or prices, and on such terms and conditions as my executor shall determine, and to execute and deliver good and sufficient conveyances, assignments and transfers of the property, without liability of any purchaser for the application of any consideration; to borrow money and to secure its payment by mortgage of real or personal property, pledge of investments, or otherwise, without liability on the part of the lenders to see to the application thereof; to retain any investments at discretion; to invest and reinvest at discretion, without restriction to so-called "legal investments"; to make distribution in cash or in kind; to allocate and distribute different kinds or disproportionate shares of property or undivided interests in property among beneficiaries, in case or in kind, or partly in each; and to do all other acts and things necessary or appropriate in the management, administration and distribution of my estate. ITEM SEVEN: I appoint my niece, Kim E. Banister, Executrix of this my Last Will and Testament. Should my said Executrix fail to survive me or for any reason fail to qualify as Executrix, I then appoint my nephew, William N. Banister, Executor of this my Last Will and Testament. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and seal to this, my Last Will and Testament, consisting of three (3) typewritten pages, the first two (2) of which bear my signature in the margin for the purpose of identification, this 2nd day of July, 2009. /~' ', ,'? -~i~~~~~~ SEAL) Lois Ann Banister Signed, sealed, published and declared by the above named testatrix, Lois Ann Banister, as and for her Last Will and Testament, in the presence of us, who, at her request, in her sight and presence, and in the sight and presence of each other, have hereunto subscribed our names as witnesses. ~ M~~r~,~ ~~tr~,~ ~n~ ti'~~ .~~~~~,; ~~~ j~~b~ .'
