FREY, of New Cumberland Borough, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, being of sound and disposing mind, memory and understanding, do make, publish and declare this to be my Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking and making void all previous Wills and Codicils heretofore made by me. FIRST I order and direct my personal representative hereinafter named to pay all of my just debts, funeral expenses and expenses involved or connected with the administration of my estate as soon after my death as is reasonably possible. However, my personal representative need not accelerate and pay those unmatured obligations which, m his, her or its opinion, it might be proper and more advantageous to retain or renew and pay as they become due and payable. If I do not own a burial plot or a grave marker at the time of my death, I authorize my personal representative, in his, her, r Page 1 of 7 Pages or its sole discretion, to purchase a burial plot and to erect a suitable marker at my grave, and to expend sums from my estate for this purpose.

FOURTH If, at the time of my death, any beneficiary of this my Last Will and Testament is under the age of twenty-two (22) years or is, in the judgment of my personal representative, mentally disabled, I give, devise and bequeath said beneficiary's share to my Trustee, JACQUELINE M. VERNEY, ESQUIRE, in Trust for said beneficiary, in accordance with the paragraphs below. If JACQUELINE M. VERNEY, ESQUIRE, is unwilling or unable to serve for any reason, I appoint ROBERT P.

FIFTH During the terms of any trust created pursuant to this Will the Trustee is authorized to expend and apply so much of the net income and principal of each such trust as the Trustee shall consider advisable for the health, maintenance, support, and education (including college education, undergraduate and graduate) of each such beneficiary until he or she attains twenty-two (22) years of age, or until all such amounts are aid out of the Trust. When the beneficiar I ~ p y attains t~ the age of twenty-two (22) years or is in the judgment of my Trustee mentally sound whichever _r event occurs later, the Trust shall terminate and the remainder thereof shall be paid to said beneficiary. If said beneficiary shall die before the termination of said Trust, the Trust shall ~, terminate and the remainder thereof shall be paid in accordance with the paragraphs above. I direct that no Trustee shall be required to give or post bond for the faithful performance of the Trustee's duties in this or any other jurisdiction. Page 3 of 7 Pages SIXTH My Executor and Trustee are authorized and empowered to exercise from time to time in his, her or its sole discretion and without prior authority from any Court, in respect of any property forming part of any trust hereby created or otherwise in its possession hereunder, all powers conferred by law upon trustees or executors and I intend that such powers be construed in the broadest possible manner. SEVENTH No interest of any beneficiary of my estate, either in income or in principal, shall be subject to anticipation or pledge, assignment, sale or transfer in any manner, nor shall any beneficiary have the power in any manner to charge or encumber his or her interest either in income or principal, nor shall the interest of any beneficiary be liable or subject in any manner while in the possession of my personal representative for the liability of such beneficiary.
