• LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
OF
HERBERT J. RUEGG
I, HERBERT J. RUEGG, of Perry County, Pennsylvania do hereby make, publish and
declare this, my last Will and Testament, hereby revoking and making void any and all Wills and
Codicils at any time heretofore made by me.
FIRST: I direct that my debts, the expenses of my last illness and the expenses of my final
services and burial be satisfied and fully paid out of my estate as soon as may be convenient after
my decease.
SECOND: I leave all funeral arrangements to my Executor hereinafter named. In the event I
have not already purchased a burial lot for my family and me, I hereby authorize and empower my
Executor to purchase such a lot, to erect a suitable memorial thereon, and to provide for the
permanent upkeep of same out of my estate.
THIRD: In as much as all items of household furniture and furnishings in our residence and
other items of personal property have been transferred to the previously created revocable living
trust described below, I make no disposition of the same in this, my Last Will and Testament, but
rather certify that all of the same are the property of the just-referenced revocable living trust.
FOURTH: I give, devise and bequeath the rest, residue, and remainder of my Estate, of every
nature and wherever situate, unto my wife, NORMA E. RUEGG, as Trustee, to be added to and
thereafter held in Trust as part of the Trust Estate pursuant to that certain Revocable Trust
Agreement dated November 5, 1997, and executed by me and NORMA E. RUEGG prior to the
execution of this, my Last Will and Testament, to have and to hold, IN TRUST NEVERTHELESS,
for the uses and purposes, and subject to the terms and provisions thereof, including any alterations
or amendments thereto, or any other Trust which may hereafter be substituted therefor.
FIFTH: I hereby name, constitute and appoint my wife, NORMA E. RUEGG as Executrix
of this, My Last Will and Testament. In the event my Wife, shall fail to qualify or cease to
continue to qualify as Executrix by reason of death, disability, incapacity or otherwise, I hereby
name, constitute and appoint Brenda Roland as Executrix. She is to serve without bond, and I
direct that my fiduciaries shall not be required to enter security in any jurisdiction in which they
may act. ~,_,

SIXTH: My Executor shall have the following powers in addition to those vested in him by
Law and by other provisions of this, my Last Will and Testament, to be exercised without court
approval, and effective until distribution of all property:
1. To retain any or all of the assets of my estate, real or
personal, without restriction to investments authorized for
Pennsylvania fiduciaries, as my Executor from time to time may
deem proper, without regard to any principle of diversification or
risk.
2. To invest in all forms of property without restriction to
investments authorized for Pennsylvania fiduciaries, as my Executor
from time to time may deem proper, without regard to any principle
of diversification or risk.
3. 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, exchanges or leases, for such prices and upon such terms
. or conditions as my Executor from time to time may deem proper.
4. To allocate receipts and expenses to principal or income or
" partly to each as my Executor from time to time may deem proper.
5. To borrow money from person or institution including my
Executor and to mortgage or pledge any or all real or personal
property as my Executor in my Executor's sole discretion shall
choose, without regard to the dispositive provisions of this
instrument.
6. To compromise any claim or controversy asserted by or
against my estate.
7. To make distribution in cash or in kind or partly in cash and
partly in kind, and in such manner as my Executor may determine,
and at valuations finally to be fixed by my Executor.
• 2 of 4
• SEVENTH: I direct my Executor to claim any expenses of administration of my estate as income
tax deductions upon any income tax return or returns whenever in said Executor's sole judgment
such action will achieve an overall reduction in the total income and death taxes. No compensating
adjustments between income and principal shall be made as a result of such action. I also authorize
my Executor to join my wife, or her personal representative in the filing of a joint income tax
return for any period for which such a return may be permitted, without requiring the estate of my
wife, to indemnify my estate against liability for the tax attributable to the income of my wife, and
to consent for Federal gift tax purposes, to having gifts made by my wife, during my lifetime
treated as having been made half by me.
EIGHTH: I direct that all estate, inheritance and other taxes in the nature thereof, together with
any interest or penalty thereon, becoming payable by reason of my death, with respect to property
forming my gross estate for tax purposes, whether or not passing under this, my Last Will and
Testament, shall be considered an expense of administration of my estate, and no legatee or devisee
or any person having a beneficial interest in any such property, whether under this my Last Will
and Testament, or any Codicil thereto, or otherwise shall at any time be required to refund any part
of such taxes; provided, however, that such taxes may be paid from the Trust Estate, in accordance
with the provisions set forth for the payment thereof in that certain Revocable Trust Agreement
dated November 5, 1997.
NINTH: Whenever used in this, my Last Will and Testament, the singular shall include the
• plural, the plural the singular, and the use of any gender shall be applicable to all genders. As used
herein, the terms "child", "children" and "issue" and similar terms shall include children adopted
under the age of twenty-one (21) years, regardless of the date of adoption, with full effect as if they
were the natural children of the adopting parents.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF: I, HERBERT J. RUEGG, the Testator above named, have to this,
