Items Two and Three, above.
ITEM FIVE: Should any beneficiary of mine be under the age of twenty-five (25) years, my
Personal Representative shall hold such beneficiary's shaze of my estate, as Trustee, IN TRUST and

beneficiary's share for the health, maintenance, support and education of such beneficiary
considering all other sources of income available to such beneficiary and known to my Trustee.
Upon such beneficiary attaining the age of twenty-five (25) years, my Trustee shall distribute
the balance of the principal and accumulated income, if any, of each such beneficiary's shaze to
such beneficiary.
B. Should the principal of the Trust Estate, in the sole opinion of my Trustee, be or become too
small to warrant placing or continuing of such fund in trust or should its administration be or
become impractical for any other reason, my Trustee, in the exercise of their sole discretion,
may pay such shaze absolutely to the person maintaining such beneficiary or may place such
shares in the beneficiary's name in aninterest-bearing deposit in any bank, bank and trust
company or national banking association of his choosing, payable to the beneficiary at majority,
or if said beneficiary has reached his or her majority, then to him or her directly.
C. All shares of principal and income hereby given shall be free from anticipation, assignment,
pledge or obligation of my beneficiary(s), and shall not be subject to any execution or attach-
ment.

ITEM SIX: Notwithstanding the provisions of Item Four above, in the event my wife,
IRENE A. KANE, survives me by one hundred and seventy (170) days, and it is determined by either a
court or an authority of competent jurisdiction or in the event my Personal Representative reasonably
believes that my wife will be required to elect against my estate so to prevent her from being ineligible to
receive or to continue to receive any governmental assistance benefits, then I give to my Personal
Representative as TRUSTEE IN SEPERATE TRUST, an amount equal to my wife's statutory elective
shaze under 20 PA C.S.A. Chapter 22, and I direct the Trustee to retain, invest, reinvest and distribute, any
income and principal of the trust shaze set aside for my wife, as follows:
A. The Trustee may, in the Trustee's sole discretion, distribute for the benefit of my wife,
discretionary amounts of principal for supplemental needs not otherwise provided by
governmental financial assistance and benefits or by the providers of services. Such
amounts shall not be distributed directly to such beneficiary.
B. "Supplemental needs" refer to the requisites for maintaining the good health, safety and
welfare of such beneficiary when in the discretion of my Trustee such requisites aze not
being provided by any public agency, office or department of any state or of the United
States. "Supplemental needs" shall also include, but not be limited to, medical and dental
expenses, annual independent check-ups, equipment, programs of training, education,
treatment and rehabilitation, private residential caze, transportation (including vehicle
purchase), maintenance, insurance and essential dietary needs. "Supplemental needs" may
include spending money, electronic equipment such as radios, record players, television
sets, computer equipment, camping, vacations, athletic contests, movies, trips and money to
purchase appropriate gifts for relatives and friends.
C. The Trustee shall have no obligation to expend trust assets for such needs, but if the
Trustee in its sole discretion decides to expend trust assets, under no circumstances should
any amounts be paid to or reimbursed to the federal government, any state or any
governmental agency for any purpose, including for the caze, support and maintenance of
my wife.
D. No part of the trust shaze set aside for my wife shall be used to supplant or replace public
assistance benefits of any state or federal agency which has a legal responsibility to serve
persons with illnesses or handicaps which aze the same or similaz to the disorders of such
beneficiary.
E. No interest in the principal or income of the trust share set aside for such beneficiary shall be
anticipated, assigned or encumbered or shall be subject to any creditor's claim or to legal
process prior to its actual receipt by my wife. My wife is specifically prohibited from any
right to receive, demand, secure, give, assign, transfer, mortgage, borrow against or will any
trust assets or income.
F. It is my intention to conserve and maintain this trust shaze for the supplemental needs of my
wife. Therefore, no part of this trust share, neither principal nor undistributed net income,
shall be subject to the claims of voluntary or involuntary creditors for the provisions of care
and services, including residential caze by any public entity, office, department or agency of
any state or government agency or of the federal government of the United States.
G. In the event it is determined by either a court or an authority of competent jurisdiction
that these trust assets render my wife ineligible to receive any governmental assistance
4
benefits, or if the Trustee in its sole discretion determines that notwithstanding the
provisions set forth above, this trust shaze may be subject to garnishment, attachments,
execution or bankruptcy proceedings by a creditor of such beneficiary or by the federal or
state government or any agency or subdivision thereof, then my Tmstee shall terminate
the trust share set aside for wife and distribute the remaining principal and accrued
income pro rata to my residuary heirs under Item Four, above, the contingent
beneficiaries.
H. I request but do not direct that the contingent beneficiaries conserve, manage and
distribute the proceeds of the former trust shaze set aside for my wife in accordance with
the provisions as set forth above.
I. In determining whether the existence of the trust shaze has the effect of rendering my wife
ineligible to receive any governmental assistance benefits, the Trustee is hereby granted full
and complete discretion to initiate administrative or judicial proceedings for the purpose of
determining eligibility. All costs related thereto, including reasonable attorney's fees, shall
be a proper chazge to this trust shaze of my wife.
J. If my wife should die before the complete distribution of this trust estate, this trust shall
terminate and the Trustee shall distribute the balance of the trust property to my residuary
heirs under Item Four, above, my contingent beneficiaries.
ITEM SEVEN: I appoint, my son, ROBERT F. KANE, Personal Representative of this my
Will. In the event my son is unable or unwilling to act or continue to act as my Personal Representative,
I appoint my son, WILLIAM T. KANE, Personal Representative of this my Will.
ITEM EIGHT: I appoint my duly appointed Personal Representative(s) Trustee(s) of the
Trust(s) created pursuant to Items Five and Six, above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no
circumstances shall my wife, IRENE A. KANE, serve as a Tmstee of any trust created under Item Six
above.
ITEM NINE: No bond shall be required of any fiduciary hereunder in any jurisdiction. No
fiduciary hereunder shall have any liability for any mistake or error of judgment made in good faith.
ITEM TEN: I authorize my Personal Representative(s) and Trustee(s) to exercise the
following powers in addition to those given by law, to be exercised in their sole discretion:
A. To retain any or all of the assets of my estate, without regazd to any principle of
diversification, risk or productivity;
B. To invest in all forms of property without restriction to investments authorized for any type of
fiduciary;
C. To compromise any claim or controversy;
D. To loan money to or buy property from my estate;
E. To borrow money from any person, including any Executor or Trustee, and to mortgage or
pledge any real or personal property;
5
F. 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, all for such prices and
upon such terms and conditions as they deem proper;
G. To allocate receipts and expenses to principal or income or partly to each as they deem proper;
H. To repair, alter or improve any real or personal property;
I. To distribute in cash or in kind or partly in each at valuations fixed by them;
J. To keep reasonable amounts of cash in a bank uninvested if deemed advisable for the protection
of the principal;
K. To subscribe for or to exercise options for stocks, bonds or other investments; to join in any plan
of lease, mortgage, merger, consolidation, reorganization, foreclosure or voting trust and to
deposit securities thereunder, and to generally exercise all the rights of security holders or
employees of any corporation;
L. To register securities in the name of a nominee or in such manner that title shall pass by
delivery;
M. To add to the principal of any trust created by this instrument any real or personal property
received from any person by Deed, Will or in any other manner;
N. To exercise all power, authority and discretion given by this instrument after the termination of
any trust created herein until the same is fully distributed;
O. To use their sole discretion in deciding whether stock dividends on stock they hold in trust
should be apportioned to principal or income, except stock dividends of regulated investment
companies which shall be added to principal;
P. To commingle the assets of any trust estate created by this Will in any one or more common
funds for greater convenience and flexibility;
Q. To employ agents, accountants, engineers and such other persons, professional or otherwise, as
may be necessary for the proper administration of this estate or trust and to pay their
compensation from such funds; and
R. To disclaim all or any interest in a property passing to me or my estate.
ITEM ELEVEN: I realize that Personal Representatives aze given discretion by law to
make various elections which affect the income and estate taxes payable by estates and beneficiaries, as
well as the relative shazes of beneficiaries, such as taking administration expenses as deductions for
either estate or income tax purposes, selecting options for the payment of employee death benefits,
electing to take a qualified terminable interest as part of the marital deduction, selecting alternate
valuation dates, postponing the payment of taxes, filing joint income tax or gift tax returns and
redeeming corporate stock. The decisions made by my fiduciaries in any of these matters shall be
binding upon, and not subject to question by, any affected persons. I rely upon my fiduciaries to take
into consideration the total income and estate taxes payable by reason of their decisions including those
payable by my survivors, and they are authorized in their discretion, but not required, to make
adjustments between income and principal as a result thereof.
ITEM TWELVE: I direct that all estate, inheritance and other taxes in the nature thereof,
together with any interest and penalties thereon, becoming payable because of my death with respect to
the property constituting my gross estate for death tax purposes, whether or not such property passes
under this my Last Will and Testament, shall be paid from the principal of my residuary estate, and no
person receiving or having a beneficial interest in any such property, whether under this my Last Will
and Testament or otherwise, shall at any time be required to contribute to or refund any part thereof;
PROVIDED, however, that this direction shall not apply to the taxes on any property included in my
estate solely because of a power of appointment thereover which I possess but have not exercised or on
any qualified terminable interest or to any generation- skipping transfer taxes.
ITEM THIRTEEN: No gift or beneficial interest shall be subject to anticipation,
assignment, pledge, obligation, or alienation of my beneficiary(s), whether voluntary or involuntary, and
the income and principal thereof shall not be subject to any execution or attachment.
ITEM FOURTEEN: If any beneficiary, person or entity in any manner, directly or indirectly,
contests or attacks this Will or any of its provisions, or objects to the accounts or actions of my fiduciaries,
without probable cause, such beneficiary, person or entity shall pay all costs, including but not limited to
attorneys' fees, arising in connection with such contest, attack or objection incurred by my estate, such trust
or such fiduciary personally. In the event that such beneficiary, person or entity does not prevail in such
action, any shaze or interest in my estate or such trust which would otherwise pass to such beneficiary,
person, entity or remainderman under this Will shall be revoked and the property consisting of such shaze
shall be disposed of in the manner provided herein as if that contesting person or entity had predeceased me
without surviving issue.
ITEM FIFTEEN: Should any of the provisions of my Will be for any reason declared
invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any of the other provisions of this Will and all invalid provisions
shall be wholly disregarded in interpreting this Will.
ITEM SIXTEEN: This Will shall be construed, regulated and governed by and in
accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have at Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, on January 6, 2012, set my
hand and seal to this my Last Will and Testament consisting of seven (7) pages plus any witness,
acknowledgement, affcdavit and certification pages.

This informal letter of instruction to my family and Personal Representative serves to
convey my personal wishes concerning distribution of selected personal effects. In any situation
where the provisions of this letter may be deemed to be inconsistent with or contrary to the terms
of my Will, or other formal Estate Planning Documents, it is my desire and intent that the
provisions of my Will and other formal Estate Planning instruments shall govern and be
controlling since I do not intend that this letter shall serve in any respect as a Will nor shall the
terms of this letter override the provisions of a Will or a Trust executed by me whether it was
signed prior or subsequent to the date of this letter.
