insurance policy with Northwestern Mutual My Executor is accordingly authorized to take
all steps as to notification and filling out and submitting forms as may be needed to have the
policy proceeds properly paid and delivered.
Additionally, I am hereby authorizing my Executor to consult with my aforesaid
beneficiaries and to make distributions in kind or in cash, or otherwise as it may regard as
reasonable and feasible under the circumstances. In the event of any disagreements as to the
best way to proceed herein, my Executor has full, absolute, unfettered total, and final
discretion to liquidate any and all assets and to convert them into cash for distribution.
2
5.
I nominate, constitute and appoint PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as
1xecutor of this, my Last Will and Testament. My Corporate Executor shall be compensated
as per its standard fee schedule in effect when services are rendered. No fiduciary acting
hereunder shall be required to post bond or enter security in any jurisdiction.
6.
A. Powers. In addition to powers given to it by law, my Executor acting hereunder,
whether or not named herein, shall have the following discretionary powers applicable to all
property held by it, effective without court order and until actual distribution:
1.) To retain any property received by it without regard to any principle of
investment diversification.
2.) T'o invest in all forms of property, without restriction to investments authorized
by law and without regard to any principle of investment diversification.
3.) To compromise controversies.
4.) To buy, exchange, or sell real or personal property publicly or privately, for
such prices and on such terms as it deem proper; to lease for any term and to give options for
these purposes without obligation to repudiate them in favor of a higher offer.
5.) To borrow money from any source and to mortgage or pledge estate assets as
security.
6.) To hold investments in the name of a nominee.
7.) To employ and compensate as it deems appropriate, without diminution of any
fiduciary's compensation hereunder, any brokers, advisors, professional persons and other
agents and, in its discretion, to delegate revocable investment and management discretion to
any such broker, advisor, professional person or agent.
8.) To make distribution in cash or in kind or partly in each at fair market values
on the date of distribution.
9.) To disclaim on my behalf any interest the Executor deems advisable.
3
B. Concerning Self-Dealin et al. No rule of law against self-dealing, divided
loyalty, or conflict of interest shall be applied to render any transaction effected by the
fiduciaries void, voidable, or otherwise subject to attack solely for violation of such rule, nor
shall the fiduciaries incur any liability, nor shall any fiduciary's commissions for acting
hereunder be reduced, solely for violation of such rule. Any transaction which involves self-
dealing, divided loyalty, or conflict of interest by the fiduciaries shall be judge by the rules of
law which would apply to the same transaction at arm's length between strangers free of any
element of self-dealing ,divided loyalty, or conflict of interest. Thus, by way of illustration
and not of limitation, all fiduciaries are authorized, without giving any notice required by
statute, to:
1.) Employ and compensate any fiduciary or any affiliate as broker, agent, or
professional advisor for any purpose.
2.) Borrow from the commercial department of any corporate fiduciary or any
affiliate at current interest rates.
3.) Buy, retain, and sell any debt or equity, security, issued or underwritten by any
corporate fiduciary or any affiliate and any debt security secured, supported,
andlor otherwise enhance by a letter of credit issued by any corporate fiduciary
or any affiliate.
4.) Buy, retain, and sell any security of any investment company or trust registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 to which any corporate fiduciary
or any affiliate render services for compensation.
5.) Buy any property from or sell property to any beneficiary or fiduciary acting
hereunder or otherwise on arm's length terms.
An "affiliate" means any entity which owns, directly or indirectly, an interest in any
corporate fiduciary, any entity in which any corporate fiduciary owns an interest, directly or
indirectly, and any entity in common control with any corporate fiduciary.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and seal this f~~vday of
