of the Trustee, a successor trustee may be appointed by the Settlor during Settlor's
lifetime, or, after the Settlor's death, by a majority of the current beneficiaries. The
Settlor prohibits the appointment of the Settlor as Trustee, and any attempt to appoint
the Settlor as Trustee shall be without authority under this trust agreement. The first

at any time to make additions to the corpus of this Trust or any
share thereof hereby established. All such additions shall be
held, governed, and distributed by the Trustee in accordance with
the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Trustee, in its
sole discretion, may require, as a prerequisite to accepting
property, that the transferring party provide evidence satisfactory
to the Trustee that (i) the property is not contaminated by any
hazardous or toxic materials or substances; and (ii) the property
is not being used and has never been used for any activities
directly or indirectly involving the generation, use, treatment,
storage, disposal, release or discharge of any hazardous or toxic
materials or substances.

disclaim, in whole or in part, prior to its acceptance by the

not limited to a concern that such property could cause potential
liability under any federal, state, or local environmental law.
ARTICLE II. IRREVOCABILITY OF TRUST
2.01. Irrevocability. Settlor has been advised of the
consequences of an irrevocable trust and hereby declares that this

transferred into this Trust, the Trustee shall be vested with all
right, title, and interest in and to the transferred policies of
insurance, and is authorized and empowered to exercise and enjoy,
for the purposes of the Trust herein created and as absolute owner
of such policies of insurance, all the options, benefits, rights
and privileges under such policies, including the right to borrow
from and to pledge them for a loan or loans. The Trustee takes all
rights, title, and interest in and to the above-stated insurance
policies subject to any prior split-dollar life insurance agreement
and assignments, which may be in effect at the time of transfer.
The insurance companies which have issued the policies are hereby
authorized and directed to recognize the Trustee as absolute owner
of the policies of insurance and as fully entitled to all options,
rights, privileges, and interests under the policies, and any
receipts, releases, and other instruments executed by the Trustee
in connection with such policies shall be binding upon all persons
interested in this Trust. Settlor hereby relinquishes all rights,

persons of the nonpayment of the premiums, and the Trustee shall be
under no responsibility or liability of any kind in case the
premiums are not paid, except the Trustee shall apply any dividends

notice at any time during the continuance of this Trust that the
premiums due upon the policies are in default, or that premiums
which will become due will not be paid, either by the transferor or

Settlor's children, KAREN M. BORGSMILLER, DOUGLAS R. MC~EAL, and
~ MC~EAL MACKEY (and any children of NANCY C. MCNEAL born or

then-living issue of the predeceased child according to the terms
under Section 4.02(B) (5) of this Trust Agreement. If any of
Settlor's children predecease the Settlor, without leaving issue,
then that predeceased child's share shall be divided equally among
Settlor's then-living issue, per stirpes, provided that any
distribution to Settlor's issue shall be added to the Beneficiary's
separate trust if a trust is then in existence. The Trustee shall,

until the earlier termination of such child's trust, hold each
separate trust for the following uses and purposes:
(1) To pay to, or for the benefit of, each
Beneficiary at any time or times, such sums from or any
part or all of the income and/or principal from their
respective separate trusts, as the Trustee may, in its
sole discretion, determine to be reasonably necessary for
the Beneficiary's needs for health, education, support
and maintenance. To the extent possible, all payments of
principal or income shall be paid directly to the third
party for the benefit of the Beneficiary rather than
directly to the Beneficiary.
(2) To pay to, or for the benefit of, the issue
(including children and grandchildren) of each
Beneficiary, at any time or times, such sums from or any
part or all of the income and/or principal from their
parent's respective separate trusts, as the Trustee may,
in its sole discretion, determine to be reasonably
necessary for the Beneficiary's issue's needs for health,
education, support and maintenance. To the extent
possible, all payments of principal or income shall be
paid directly to the third party for the benefit of the
Beneficiary's issue rather than directly to the issue of
the Beneficiary.
(3) Each Beneficiary shall have the limited general
power to appoint an amount of the principal each year to
either themselves or their children. The maximum amount
receivable under this provision shall be the greater of:
(i) $5,000 per calendar year, or (ii) two and one-half
(2.50%) percent per calendar year of the market value of
the principal of the Beneficiary's separate Trust (not
reduced by any income taxes chargeable to principal)
determined on the first day of January each year. Each
Beneficiary's claim may be satisfied only out of their
separate trust. At the end of each calendar year the
Beneficiary's right to appoint the maximum amount shall
lapse, if not exercised, and the unused maximum amounts
shall not accumulate. This power shall not be
exercisable under the Beneficiary's Will. If the
Beneficiary fails, either in whole or in part, to
exercise this power of appointment herein granted, the
unappointed principal shall continue in trust and shall
be administered in accordance with the terms of this
Trust.
(4) The Beneficiary shall have the power at any
time, exercisable either (i) by instrument or instruments
in writiqg delivered to the Trustee during the
Beneficiary's life, or (ii) by the Beneficiary's will,
admitted to probate within three hundred and sixty-five
(365) days from the Beneficiary's death, specifically
referring to this Subparagraph 4.02(B) (4), to appoint all
or any portion of the principal and any accumulated and
accrued income of this Trust, except any policies of
insurance on the life of the Settlor. Any appointment
made under this Subparagraph 4.02(B) (4) may be upon any
terms and conditions (including further trusts, the
beneficiaries of which are only Settlor's issue and
spouses of the Settlor's issue) to or for the benefit of
any one or more of the Beneficiary's issue and spouses of
the Beneficiary's issue.
(5) Upon the death of each Beneficiary, the then-
remaining Trust Estate of the separate trust for each
Beneficiary shall be divided into separate and equal
shares and one such share shall be held by the Trustee,
IN FURTHER SEPARATE TRUST, for each of the Beneficiary's
children, such children being the Settlor's grandchildren
(herein referred to as the "Distributee"), per stirpes.
The Trustee shall, during the lifetime of such
grandchildren or until the earlier termination of such
grandchild's trust, hold each separate trust for the
following uses and purposes:
(a) During the minority of the Distributee,
which Settlor defines as not having attained age
twenty-five (25), to pay any part or all of the
income to, or for the benefit of, the Distributee,
or to accumulate any part or all of the income,
which in the sole discretion of the Trustee is
determined to be reasonably necessary for the
Distributee's needs for health, support,
maintenance and education (including vocational,
undergraduate, graduate and professional
education). Any income not so paid shall be added
to the principal of the Trust. To the extent
possible, all payments of income shall be paid
directly to the third-party for the benefit of the
Distributee rather than
Distributee.

(b) After the Distributee has attained the
age of twenty-five (25) years, to pay all of the
income to, or for the benefit of, the Distributee,
in such periodic installments as the Trustee and
the Distributee shall agree. To the extent
possible, all payments of income shall be paid
directly to the third party for the benefit of the
Distributee rather than directly to the
Distributee.
(c) To pay to, or for the benefit of, the
Distributee at any time or times prior to the
termination of the Distributee's separate Trust,
such sums from or any part or all of the principal
as the Trustee may, in its sole discretion,
determine to be reasonably necessary for the
Distributee's needs for health, support,
maintenance and education (including vocational,
undergraduate, graduate and professional
education). To the extent possible, all payments
of principal shall be paid directly to the third
party for the benefit of the Distributee rather
than directly to the Distributee.
(d) After each Distributee attains age
twenty-five (25), each Distributee is hereby
granted the power to appoint a maximum amount of
the principal of his separate Trust to himself, his
estate, or any other individual, in such
proportions and upon such terms (in trust or
outright gifts) as he deems advisable. The maximum
amount which each Distributee may appoint under
this paragraph per calendar year, shall be the
greater of five thousand ($5,000) dollars, or two
and one-half (2.50%) percent of the entire
principal of the Distributee's separate Trust. At
the end of each calendar year the Distributee's
right to appoint the maximum amount shall lapse, if
not exercised, and the unused maximum amounts shall
not accumulate. This power shall not be
exercisable under the Distributee's Will. If the
Distributee fails, either in whole or in part, to
exercise this power of appointment herein granted,
the unappointed principal shall continue in trust
and shall be administered in accordance with the
terms of this Trust.

any other reasonable purpose.
(f) To pay to, or for the benefit of, the
Distributee, upon his attaining the age of thirty-
two (32), up to one-half (1/2), cumulatively, of
the remaining principal in his trust.

Distributee, upon his attaining the age of thirty-
seven (37), the entire principal of his trust
remaining at that time.
(h) Upon the death of a Distributee prior to his
thirty-seventh (37th) birthday, the Trustee shall pay the
remaining principal, if any, to the predeceased
Distributee's then-living issue, or if the Distributee
has no such issue, to the Settlor's then-living issue,
per stirpes, provided that any distribution to Settlor's
issue shall be added to the Beneficiary's separate trust
if a trust is then in existence.
4.04.
General Withdrawal Power.
A. Notwithstanding any other dispositive provisions in this
Trust, promptly after the receipt of any property placed into this
Trust by Settlor or any other person or persons, or deemed to have
been placed into this Trust by Settlor or any other person, Trustee
shall give notice, in writing, to Settlor's children, KAREN M.
BORGSMILLER, DOUGLAS R. MCNEAL, and ~ MCNEAL MACKEY (and any
children of ~A~C¥ C. MCNEAL born or adopted hereafter), of the

individual to withdraw from the Trust a share of the property.
Each individual shall have the unrestricted right for a period of
thirty (30) days from the mailing of the notice by the Trustee, to
demand and immediately receive from the Trust a share of the
property or, in the Trustee's discretion, an equivalent amount of
property from any other Trust principal equal to one (1) divided by
the number of then-living individuals named above multiplied by the
total value of the property received or deemed to have been
received by the Trustee. The right of withdrawal shall be
exercised by a written instrument delivered to the Trustee within
the thirty (30) day period, along with written acknowledgment of
the receipt of the notice. If the right of withdrawal is not
exercised within the thirty (30) day period, the right shall lapse.
If any of the above-named individuals are minors, then the required
notice shall be given to the minor's legal or natural guardian
7
(other than the Settlor). The minor's legal or natural ~uardian
shall have the right to exercise the right of withdrawal, by a
written instrument and acknowledgment of receipt of notice sighted
by the minor's legal or natural ~uardian, on behalf of the minor.
The thirty (30) day period wherein the right of withdrawal may be
exercised will not be affected if all or a portion of the time
period extends into the Trust's taxable years succeeding the
taxable year wherein the property was received by the Trustee.
B. The maximum amount receivable under this provision by
each of the above-named individuals shall be the greater of: (i)
$5,000 per calendar year, or (ii) five (5%) percent per calendar
year of the market value of the principal of this Trust (not
reduced by any income taxes chargeable to principal) determined on
the date the property was received or deemed to have been received
by the Trustee. Each individual's claim may be satisfied out of
the entire trust estate.
C. In satisfying the right of an individual to demand
distribution of trust property in accordance with this provision,
Trustee is granted broad discretionary powers. Trustee is
specifically authorized to borrow money from any source, including
but not limited to the cash surrender values of any life insurance
policies transferred to this Trust, to sell trust assets, to
surrender or otherwise dispose of any life insurance policies or
other property transferred to this Trust, and to take any other
action that may be necessary and appropriate to assure that the
right to demand distribution will be satisfied in a timely and
expedient manner.
D. The Settlor or any other person who adds or is deemed to
have added any property to the Trust has. the right, by giving
written notice to the Trustee, to exclude any individual who has
been given a power of withdrawal from exercising the power, but
only as to property added, or deemed to have been added, after the
date on which the notice is received by the Trustee.
E. Any unexercised right of an individual remaining at his
or her death shall terminate at that time. Any unexercised right
of an individual remaining at his or her death shall not be
exercisable under his or her Last Will And Testament or otherwise.
4.05. Continqent Marital Deduction. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein contained, in the event that
Settlor is married and Settlor's spouse survives Settlor and in the
further event that any part of the principal of this Trust is
includable in Settlor's gross estate for federal estate tax
purposes, and if in such circumstances the value of the property
qualifying for the marital deduction under the Settlor's Last Will
and Testament or otherwise, totals less than (a) the amount which
is exactly sufficient to reduce the federal estate tax falling due
because of the Settlor's death to the lowest possible figure, less
(b) the value of all interests in property, if any, which pass or
have passed to Settlor's spouse or in trust for her benefit
otherwise than under this Trust, but only to the extent that such
interests are for the purpose of federal estate tax included in
determining Settlor's gross estate and are finally allowed as
marital deduction in computing said tax; then such portion of the
principal of this Trust as may be necessary to make up the
difference, so that the marital deduction will be an amount equal
to the amount which is exactly sufficient to reduce the federal
estate tax falling due because of Settlor's death to the lowest
possible figure, shall be paid to the Settlor's spouse.
ARTICLE V. POWERS OF TRUSTEE
5.01. Nanaqement of the Trust.
(A) Settlor's Dower to direct investments. NA/~CY C. NC~-EAL
shall have the power in a fiduciary capacity to direct the Trustee
to purchase, sell, exchange, or otherwise acquire or dispose of
assets other than any life insurance policy. In the case of a
variable life insurance policy, NANCY C. NC~-EAL shall have the
power in a fiduciary capacity to direct the investment of the cash
value of the policy among the investment fund options provided in
the policy; but not to exercise any other option, benefit, right
and privilege of an owner of such insurance.
During the Settlor's lifetime, the Trustee shall not exercise
any of the Trustee's powers over these matters without receiving
written directions from the Settlor. During the Settlor's lifetime
and unless the foregoing powers have been relinquished, the Trustee
shall have no duty to review investments or to suggest investments
and shall not be liable to any beneficiary of this trust or any
heir of the Settlor for losses resulting from such investments or
from failure to make investments while the Settlor retains these
powers.
NANCY C. NCNEAL may release her power to control trust
investments by written instrument delivered to the Trustee and may
reassume the power at any time be written instrument delivered to
the Trustee. If NANCY C. NCNEAL dies or the Trustee received
certificates of two state licensed physicians that NANCY C. NCNEAL
cannot exercise any of these powers, NANCY C. MCNEAL shall be
deemed to have released the powers and the Trustee shall have full
power to take any such action. NANCY C. NCNEAL shall be deemed to
have reassumed the powers if the Trustee receives certificates from
two licensed physicians that NANCY C. MCNEAL has recovered the
ability to exercise the powers.
The Settlor acting under this clause shall be deemed to have
waived the doctor-patient privilege to the extent necessary to
9
implement this clause. Any person may transact business with the
Trustee without inquiring whether the Settlor has directed the
action and without inquiring whether the Settlor has relinquished
or become unable to exercise the power.
(B) IncorDoration of Uniform Prudent Investor Act. The
Trustee shall be subject to the Uniform Prudent Investor Act (the
"UPIA) as if the UPIA had been enacted in the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania in the form promulgated by the Commission on the
Uniform State Laws in its exercise if any power to manage and
invest the assets of the trust.
The Settlor desires that the Trustee, consistent with the
standards of the UPIA, continuously assess the appropriate
investment risk tolerance of the trust beneficiaries, and then
invest the trust assets seeking the maximum total return at that
level of risk.
The Settlor believes, consistent with modern portfolio theory,
that the trust total investment return will be determined primarily
by the trust's asset allocation; not market timing or active
management in security selection. The Settlor believes that the
trust should diversify its investments both assets classes and
individual securities - to avoid uncompensated risk.
The Settlor does not intend to prohibit the Trustee from
engaging in active management of trust assets where the Trustee
reasonable believes active management can aid in achieving the
desired balance between risk and return.
(C) Creation of Investment Policy Statement.
The Settlor directs that any Trustee other than the Settlor,
in managing and investing the assets of the trust estate,
establish, in writing, an appropriate investment policy statement.
The investment policy statement shall be reviewed and updated at
least annually.
(D) EmDloyment of Investment Counsel.
The Trustee may retain professional investment counsel of the
Trustee's choice; provided, however, a counsel so selected shall be
either registered as an investment adviser with the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission or a state chartered or national bank with
fiduciary powers. If investment counsel is retained, the Trustee
shall abide by the counsel's decision but shall not be held liable

annual fee set forth in the Trustee's regularly published fee
schedule, then the Trustee, in its discretion, shall be authorized
to terminate the trust or to decide not to establish the trust, and
