ScYi~ff ? of 437 County, New Jersey WILL, revoking all Paul 08057, other F=RST . Debts and Expenses. I direct that all of my just debts and funeral expenses be paid as soon after my death as may be convenient. SECOND : Residue. I leave all of my estate remaining after satisfying the debts and expenses set forth in Article First, above, equally to my daughters VIRGINIA I. SHINN of Moorestown, New Jersey, and LINDA M. LUGO of Palmyra, New Jersey. If either of my daughters fails to survive me, I leave her share to her issue, per stirpes, and if no issue, to my surviving daughter. THIRD . Young or Disabled Beneficiaries. If any person under the age of 21 years, or any person who is in the opinion of my Executor disabled by advanced age, illness, or other cause becomes entitled to a bequest under this Will, such bequest shall not be paid to such person, but instead shall be paid to my Trustee hereinafter named, to apply to his or her use the income therefrom, and also such amounts of principal (even to the extent of all) as the Trustee may deem appropriate for the support and welfare of such beneficiary, and when such beneficiary reaches the age of 21 years to distribute to him or her the then remaining principal, if any; or in the case of a disabled person becomes free of disability, to distribute to him or her the then remaining principal, if any. If the beneficiary should die before attaining said age or freedom from disability, then upon his or her death, the remaining principal shall be distributed to his or her then- living issue, and in default thereof, to my then-living issue. Distribution to issue shall be in equal shares per stirpes. FOURTH r Accelerated Termination. If my Trustee, in his sole discretion, determines that it is impractical to administer any fund held under this Will as a trust, my Trustee, without further responsibility, may pay the fund to the person then entitled to receive income therefrom; or, if there is more than one such person, to them in such amounts or proportions as my Trustee may from time to time think appropriate. If any such person is a minor or is, in my Trustee's opinion, disabled by advanced age, illness, or other cause, my Trustee may pay the fund (or his or her share of it) to his or her parent or guardian or to any person or organization taking care of him or her or, in the case of a minor, may deposit it as a savings account in the minor's name, payable to him or her at majority. My Trustee shall have no further responsibility for any funds so paid or deposited. F=FTH s Death Taxes. My Executrixes shall pay out of my general estate, as if they were my debts, all estate or inheritance taxes, by whatever name called, becoming payable because of my death in respect to all property comprising my estate for death tax purposes, whether or not such property passes under this Will. s T XTH . Powers of Executrixes and Trustees. l.(a) To retain and to invest in all forms of real and personal property - regardless of any limitations imposed by law on investments by Executrixes or Trustees; -2- 4b) 'Io compromise claims; (c) To join in any merger, reorganization, voting trust plan or other concerted action of security holders, and to delegate discretionary duties with respect thereto; (d) 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 or leases; (e) To make loans; (f) To borrow money, and to pledge property as security for repayment of any funds borrowed; (g) To exercise any law-given option to treat administrative or other expenses of my estate as income-tax deductions, even if they were paid from principal, and to value my estate for tax purposes by an optional method permitted by law in force when I die, and without requiring adjustments between income and principal for any resulting effect on income or estate taxes; ( h) To distribute in cash or in kind, or , partly in each. 2. These authorities shall be exercisable in respect of all real and personal property at any time held by my Executrixes or Trustees and shall continue in full force until the actual distribution of all such property. All powers, author ities, and discretion granted by this Will shall be in addition to those granted by law and shall be exercisable without leave of Court. SEVENTH = Executrixes and Trustees. 1. I appoint my duaghters, VIRGINIA I. SHINN of 68 Wagon Bridge Run, Moorestown, New Jersey, and LINDA M. LUGO of 602 Parry Avenue, Palmyra, New Jersey, to be co- Executrixes and co-Trustees. If either of my dauthers fails to qualify or ceases to act, my other daughter shall act as sole Executrix and Trustee. -3- 2. With respect to my fiduciaries: (a) Where co-fiduciaries are named and only one qualifies, the fiduciary so qualifying shall serve alone; (b) Any fiduciary hereunder may renounce or resign at any time, with or without cause; (c) My Executrixes or Trustees may designate a corporation with fiduciary powers to act as agent or custodian hereunder, may delegate to it such duties as may be appropriate (including investment recommendation duties), may pay to it reasonable compensation for its services, and may discharge it, with or without cause; (d) No fiduciary named herein or pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be required to file a bond, or file an account of any kind, and then only if specifically ordered to do so on application of any beneficiary, my Executrixes or Trustees, or on a Court's own motion. EIGHTH : Interpretation. Whenever terms are stated in the masculine or feminine gender, they shall be construed as applying to the opposite gender as appropriate in context. If terms are stated in the singular or plural, they shall be deemed to be opposite as appropriate in context. N=NTH . Definition of Survival . Far purposes of this Will, a person shall not be deemed to survive me if such person dies within 30 days of my death, nor to survive another if such person dies with 30 days of the death of such other. TENTH : Spendthrift Clause. No interest in income or principal shall be assignable by, or available to, anyone having a claim against -4- a beneficiary before actual payment to the beneficiary.
