ARTICLE I =; ~ n ~ ~~ m I direct the payment of all my legal debts, and the expenses of my 1 i~ness a1~ furr~ r~ _~ n from my Estate as soon after my death as conveniently maybe done. ~ `_' F m ~ r r:; v7 ~~ ~ r . ;;` C, ~ ARTICLE II ` _~ ~ '-~ ~__ N Cry Q ~~ ~ I give and bequeath my motor vehicles, household and personal effects and other tangible personalty of like nature (not including cash or securities), together with any existing insurance thereon, unto those of my children, BRIAN C. MUSSELMAN, DANE C. MUSSELMAN, and LESLEY JO VEREEN, who survive me, to be divided among them by my Executor with due regard for their personal preferences in as nearly equal shares as practical. ARTICLE III I give and bequeath the sum of ONE HUNDRED THIRTY FIVE THOUSAND ($135,000.00) DOLLARS unto my daughter, LESLEY JO VEREEN, provided that should she predecease me, I give and bequeath the same unto her then-living issue per stirpes. 005104-OOOlJ2/07.24.~ 1 /EGM/KLT/ 130321.3 ARTICLE IV I give, devise and bequeath all the rest, residue, and remainder of my Estate, of whatsoever nature and wheresoever situate unto my children, BRIAN C. MUSSELMAN, DANE C. MUSSLEMAN, and LESLEY JO VEREEN, in equal shares, the then-living issue of any of said beneficiaries who predeceases me to receive the share of the deceased beneficiary per stirpes. ARTICLE V In the event that any beneficiary of my Will shall not have reached the age of twenty five (25) years at the time of my death, I give, devise and bequeath such beneficiary's share unto ALLFIRST TRUST COMPANY OF PENNSYLVANIA, NA, and in separate TRUST to hold, manage, invest and reinvest the share(s) so received, and the accumulation of income thereon, and to use and apply the income and principal, or so much thereof as, in Trustee's discretion, may be necessary or appropriate for such beneficiary's support and education (including college education, both graduate and undergraduate, and vocational training) without regard to his or her ability to provide for such support or education or to make payment for these purposes without further responsibility, to such beneficiary or to any person taking care of such beneficiary. After the beneficiary shall attain the age of twenty one (21) years the Trustee shall pay and distribute to him or to her the net income of such Trust periodically, but not less frequently than quarterly. When such beneficiary shall attain the age of twenty five (25) years, Trustee shall distribute the then remaining principal and any income accumulated thereon on to such beneficiary absolutely, and the Trust as to that beneficiary shall terminate. In the event any beneficiary dies before receiving his or her final distribution hereunder, the Trust as to that beneficiary shall terminate and the balance of principal and any net undistributed income shall be paid over to such beneficiary's personal representative. 2 005104-00002/07.24.01 /EGM/KLT/ 1303 21.3 ARTICLE VI During the time any portion of my Estate remains in Trust, the same shall not be subject to attachment, levy or seizure by any creditor, spouse, assignee or trustee or receiver in bankruptcy of any beneficiary prior to his or her actual receipt thereof. The Trustee shall pay over income and principal as hereinbefore determined to the parties designated, as their interest may appear, without regard to any attempted anticipation, pledge or assignment by any beneficiary, and without regard to any claims thereto or attempted levy, attachment, seizure or other process, shall be authorized by law or specific order of any Court having jurisdiction, Trustee shall not be liable to any beneficiary for violation hereof by reason of the same. ARTICLE VII If at any time during the continuance of any Trust created hereunder, the Trustee in its sole and absolute discretion determines that the size of any individual Trust account has become so small as to be impractical to continue to hold in Trust and uneconomical to continue to administer as a Trust, then in such circumstances, the Trustee may without further authorization distribute the balance of the principal and income in such Trust account to the beneficiary then- entitled to the income therefrom, and upon such distribution the Trustee shall be released from further obligation with respect to that account and shall not be subject to any claim from any person who may have had a future interest in such Trust account had it been continued in Trust. ARTICLE VIII I name, constitute and appoint my son, BRIAN C. MUSSLEMAN, Executor of this my Last Will and Testament. Should my son, BRIAN C. MUSSELMAN, fail to qualify or cease to so act, I name, constitute and appoint my daughter, LESLEY JO VEREEN, Alternate Executrix 3 005104-OOG02/07.24.lJ 1 /EGM/KLT/ 130321.3 to complete the administration of my estate. I direct that neither shall be required to post bond for the faithful administration of the duties required in any jurisdiction. ARTICLE IX In addition to the powers granted by law, my Executor(s) and Trustee shall have the following discretionary powers, applicable to principal and income, which shall be exercisable without leave of court and shall continue until distribution is actually made: A. To accept and retain any or all property, including stock or other securities of the Trustee or of a holding company controlling the Trustee; B. To buy investments at a premium or discount; C. To give proxies, both ministerial and discretionary; D. To compromise claims; E. To join in any merger, consolidation, reorganization, voting trust plan, or other concerted action of security holders, and to delegate discretionary duties with respect thereto; F. To sell, to exchange, to improve, or to lease for any period of time, any real or personal property; and to give options for sales, exchanges, or leases; G. To allocate any property received or charge incurred to principal or income or partly to each, without being obliged to apply the usual rules of trust accounting. 4 005104-00602/07.24,01 /EGM/KLT/ 130321.3 H. To distribute in cash or in kind or partly in each. ARTICLE X I direct that all estate, inheritance, legacy, succession or transfer taxes (including any interest and penalties thereon) imposed by the laws of any state or the federal government now or hereafter enforced with respect to all property taxable under such laws by reason of my death, whether such taxes be payable by my estate or by any recipient of such property, shall be paid by my Personal Representative out of my residuary Estate as part of the expense of administration thereof, without apportionment and with no right to reimbursement from any recipient of any such property.
