LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT ~~~- ~ ~ ~-~ ~; ~-

OF ~_
GEORGE J. CALNON
I, GEORGE J. CALNON, now domiciled in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, declare
this to be my Last Will and Testament. I revoke all other wills and codicils that I may have
previously made.
Article I
My just debts and expenses of my last illness, funeral, and administration of my estate shall
be paid by my Executor from the principal of my residuary estate as soon as practicable after my
death.
All inheritance, estate, and succession taxes (including interest and penalties thereon, but not
including any generation skipping tax) payable by reason of my death shall be paid out of and be
charged generally against the principal of my residuary estate without reimbursement from any
person. This provision is not a waiver of any right which my Executor has to claim reimbursement
for any such taxes which become payable as the result of any property over which I have the power
of appointment.
Article TTT
I give, devise and bequeath in accordance with any memorandum which I have either
handwritten or signed, located with my will or with my valuable papers and found within 30 days of
the probate of my will. Gifts may only be to persons who survive me or to organizations which exist
at my death, and if there is a conflict, the memorandum having the latest date shall govern.
Article TV
All the rest, residue and remainder of my estate, of whatsoever nature and wheresoever
situate, I give, devise and bequeath IN EQUAL SHARES to my daughters, VICKIE LEE KULP, of
Enola, Pennsylvania, and JACKIE ANN LERCH of Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania.
However, if a beneficiary does not survive me by thirty (30) days, but leaves descendants
who survive me by thirty (30) days, those descendants shall receive, per stirpes, the share the
beneficiary would have received had he or she survived me by thirty (30) days.
Article V
I nominate, constitute, and appoint my daughters, VICKIE LEE KULP and JACKIE ANN
LERCH, as Co-Executors of my Last Will and Testament. I direct that my Co-Executors be
permitted to serve without bond and in addition to those powers granted by law, I grant them power
to distribute in cash or in kind in like or in unlike shares and to file any qualified disclaimer I could
-2-
have filed if living. My Co-Executors shall receive reasonable compensation for services rendered to
my estate.
ArtirlP VT
In addition to the powers conferred by law, I authorize my Co-Executors, in his/her absolute
discretion:
(a) to retain in the form received and to sell either at public or private sale, any real estate or
personal property except that which I specifically bequeath herein,
(b) to manage real estate,
(c) to invest and reinvest in all forms of property without being confined to legal
investments, and without regard to the principal of diversification,
(d) to exercise any option or right arising from the ownership of investments,
(e) to compromise claims without court approval and without consent of any beneficiary,
(f) to file any federal income tax return for any year for which I have not filed such return
prior to my death,
(g) to make distributions in cash or in kind, or in both, and to determine the value of any
such property,
(h) to employ any attorney, investment advisor, or other agent deemed necessary by my Co-
Executors; and to pay from my estate reasonable compensation for all their services,
-3-
(i) to conduct alone or with others, any business in which I am engaged in, or have an
interest in at time of my death, and
(j) to receive reasonable compensation in accordance with their standard schedule of fees in
effect while their services are performed.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I, GEORGE J. CALNON, hereby set my hand to this my Last
Will and Testament, on / f~```~,.~G~ (~ , 2001, at Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
