PALMER I, William H. Palmer, also known as "Wink," of 444 North West Street, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17013, being of sound and disposing mind, memory and understanding, do hereby make, publish and declare this as and for my Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking and making void any and all Wills and Codicils heretofore made. FIRST I direct the payment of my just debts and funeral expenses as soon after my death as may be convenient. I direct that all federal and Pennsylvania estate taxes, Pennsylvania inheritance taxes, and generation-skipping transfer tax payable as a result of my death, not limited to taxes attributable to property passing under this Will, shall be paid by my Executor from my residuary estate, including any part of my residuary estate that otherwise qualifies for a deduction for federal estate tax purposes. I declare that at my request my uncle Thomas A. Palmer arranged for the preparation of this Will by my attorney, Stephen D. Tiley. My attorney reviewed the contents of this Will with my by telephone and then, at my direction, provided the Will to my uncle, Thomas A. Palmer, to bring to me for execution. I reviewed the Will carefully prior to signing it. SECOND I declare that I am unmarried. I have a child Quincy H. Palmer, whose mother is Diana Colino. I have no deceased children nor any other children living. THIRD 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, per stirpes and not per capita, unto such of my children as shall survive me by ninety (90) days, but should any of them fail to so survive me then the share such deceased child of mine would have received shall pass to such of his or her issue as shall survive me by a period of ninety (90) days, per stirpes, and if there be no such issue the same shall lapse and be added to the remaining share or shares, provided, however, that should any such beneficiary be less than twenty-one (21) years of age at the time of my death their distribution shall be paid to the guardian provided at paragraph Fourth herein. At the present time I have one child, a son Quincy H. Palmer, as aforementioned. In the event that no child survives me by the aforesaid period of ninety (90) days, I give, devise and bequeath all the rest, residue and remainder of my estate, real, personal and mixed, and wheresoever the same may be situate, to my uncle, Thomas A. Palmer, of 441 West Penn Street, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. FOURTH Should any person less than twenty-one (21) years of age be entitled to a distribution out of the residuary of my estate pursuant to Paragraph Third herein, I direct such share shall be paid to my uncle, Thomas A. Palmer, of 441 West Penn Street, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, as Guardian of the estate of such person. I further direct that no said Guardian shall be required to post any bond to secure the faithful perforrnance of his or her or its duties in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or in any other jurisdiction, and I authorize and direct said Guar&an of the estate of such person to receive and to invest said distribution and to pay so much of the income arising thereon together with so much of the principal thereof as in its opinion is necessary or desirable to be expended for the proper maintenance, support and education of such person, and upon such person attaining twenty-one (21) years of age, to pay the then remaining principal together with any undistributed income to such person. Last Will and Testament of William H. Palmer Page I of 3 I hereby nominate, constitute and appoint my uncle, Thomas A. Palmer, of 441 West Penn Street, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, as Executor of this my Last Will and Testament. I further direct that no bond or other security shall be required of any Executor or Executrix appointed in this Will for the performance of his, her or its duties in any jurisdiction in which he, she or it may be called upon to act. The terms Executor or Executrix may be used interchangeably in this Will and shall refer to any Executor or Executrix appointed in this will, or any other Administrator appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction. SIXTH In addition to, and not in limitation of, the powers conferred by law or by other provisions of this Will, my Executor shall have the following powers, each of which may be exercised from time to time by my Executor in his sole discretion: (a) (b) (c) To retain in the form received, and to sell either at public or private sale, or to distribute in kind, any real or personal property. To manage both real and personal property. To invest and reinvest in all forms of property, notwithstanding the fact that any or all of the investments made are of a character or size which but for this expressed authority would not be considered proper for an Executor. (d) (e) To exercise any option or rights arising from the ownership of investments. To compromise claims without court approval and without the consent of any beneficiary.

I direct that my attorney shall retain all such household goods and furnishings as my attorney believes I may currently need or need in the future. In the event my attorney deems it necessary to dispose of any household goods or furnishings not needed to be sold to raise money for my care and not deemed to be needed by me currently or in the future, then I direct that all such household goods and furnishings be given to the person or persons to whom I have provided that they pass either specifically or as part of the residue of my estate in my most recently executed Last Will and Testament and that none be sold. h. If my mental condition shall have deteriorated so that I am no longer able to give gifts to persons to whom I have customarily given gifts, then to the extent that my attorney deems the assets of my estate, both principal and income, are in excess of the amounts reasonably anticipated to be required for my proper support and maintenance, then I direct my attorney to make gifts up to $100.00 each to my children and to their descendants, on the following occasions: Christmas, birthday, marriage, and baptism. 3.

I ask my agent to be guided in making such decisions by the personal preferences I have expressed regarding such. Based on those same preferences, my agent may alsO summon paramedics or other emergency medical personnel and seek emergency treatment for me, or choose not to do so, as my agent deems appropriate given my wishes and my medical status at the time of the decision. My agent is authorized, when dealing with hospitals and physicians, to sign documents titled or purporting to be a "Refusal to Permit Treatment" and "Leaving Hospital Page ~2 of 5 Against Medical Advise" as well as any necessary waivers of or releases from liability required by the hospitals or physicians to implement my wishes regarding medical treatment or nontreatment. 7.

My agent should try to discuss the specifics of any such decision with me if I am able to communicate in any manner, even by blinking my eyes. If I am unconscious, comatose, senile, or otherwise unreachable by such communications, my agent should make the decision guided primarily by any preferences which I may have previously expressed and secondarily by the information given by the physicians treating me regarding my medical diagnosis and prognosis. My agent may specifically request and concur with the writing of a "no-code" (DO NOT RESUSCITATE) order by the attending or treating physician. I CERTIFY THAT I HAVE READ THE PROVISIONS OF THIS ARTICLE AUTHORIZING MY AGENT TO REFUSE MEDICAL TREATMENT FOR ME UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES SPECIFIED IN THIS ARTICLE, THAT SUCH PROVISIONS HAVE BEEN EXPLAINED TO ME TO MY SATISFACTION, THAT I UNDERSTAND SUCH PROVISIONS AND THAT THEY STATE MY WISHES AND DESIRES UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED.

No person who acts in reliance upon any representations my agent may make regarding the scope of authority granted under this document shall incur any liability to me, my estate, my heirs, successors or assigns for permitting my agent to exercise any such power. d.

General reliance on Power. This power may be accepted and relied upon by anyone to whom it is presented until such person either receives written notice of revocation by me or a guardian or similar fiduciary of my estate or has actual knowledge of my death. 15. 'Coordination With Living Will. I direct my attorney-in-fact to follow the provisions of my Living Will, using the version which is most recent to the time when my attorney- in-fact may be making any such decision, and to defer to the wishes of the surrogate named in said Living Will, if that individual is different from my attorney-in-fact, when making healthcare decisions.
