Magonel Cumberland County No. 2012-00420 Dear Charitable Trusts and Organizations Section: This is to provide notice, in accordance with Pa.O.C.R. 5.5, of the Petition for Leave to Purchase Real Property Pursuant to 20 Pa.C.S.A. § 3356 in the estate captioned above. A true and correct copy of the Petition is enclosed. The affected charities being listed in Paragraph 5 of the Petition with address information found in the Certificate of Service on Page 6, are each ten (10`%) percent residuary beneficiaries in accordance with Item VI of Mrs. Magonel's Last )1Vi11 and Testament. A copy of Mrs. Magonel's Will is attached to the Petition at Exhibit "A." Each of the charitable beneficiaries received an interim distribution in the amount of ,$255,000 on or about September 26, 2012. In addition, the charities each received distributions of proceeds from non-probate annuities designated by Mrs. Magonel. Upon final distribution of the Estate, it is expected that, each of the charities will receive an additional distribution of approximately $170,000, for a net probate distribution of approximately $425,000 per charity-. Finally, it should be noted that DVi.nebrenner Theological Seminary was distributed its cash gift of $20,000 pursuant to Item V, on or about May 15, 2012. Petitioner, Margaret R. Malehorn, is a fifty (50%) percent residuary beneficiary of Mrs. Magonel's Estate. Her share of the remaining undistributed Office of the Attorney General Charitable Trusts and Organizations Section December 18, 2012 Page 2 residue is more than adequate to cover the purchase price of the Property that is subject of the Petition. There are no unresolved claims or material questions of interpretation or distribution likely to be submitted for adjudication that may affect the value of the charitable interests. We are hopeful that you will find the Petition acceptable and that the Charitable Trusts and Organizations Section will issue a "no objection's letter. I invite you to contact me at any time if you have objections, questions. or concerns. Thank you very much for your assistance. Sincerely, SAIDIS, SULLIVAN & ROGERS, P.C. BY: Todd F.
