controlled by the provisions of ihis Will.

entity directly or indirectly contests in any court the validity of this Will, including any amendments

and that person or entity shal] be deemed to have predeceased me.
Article IX
In [he event that a Trust is created by or as a result of any part of this Will for SUSAN L.
MEASE, the terms and conditions of the Trust shall be as folloH�s:
A. Qualified Retirement Plan Accounts My Trustee may exercise the authority and
discretion provided for in this Article over any of my qualified retirement plan accounts
and benefits to which a trust created under this Artide is a beneficiary. The powers
granted in this Article are in addition to, and not in ]imitation of, all other powers granted
in this Will and u�der the law.
I. 1 direct my Trustee to instruct my IRA provider or provider of any of my
qualified retirement benefits to divide my IRA and/or qualified retirement benefits
into separate equal shares for each beneficiary, and for the share for SUSAN L.
MEASE under the name "Trust share for SUSAN L. MrASE created under
ELIZABETI-I H. VANDERGRIF7''s Last Will and TestamenY'.
2. Desienated Beneficiarv Requirements� 1 direct my Trustee to comply with
those provisions of the Code and applicable United States Treasury Regulations
that allow a trust created under diis Article, or any trust share, to be treated as a
Designated Beneficiary of any qualified retirement plans or qualified retirement
benefits for purposes of determining the distribution period under Code Sectio�
401(a)(9). These requirements are currently set forth in Section 1.401(a)(9)-4
Q&A 5 and Q&A 6 of the Treasury Regulations and call for my Trustee to furnish
certain documents to the plan administrator by October 31 of the year following
my death.
- 5 -
3. Separate Accounts• Ifthere are multiple beneficiaries entitled to ownership of
the Account simultaneously, I direct that each such bene$ciary's proportionate shaze
of the Account shall be treated as a separate account, payable solely to such
beneficiary, within the meaning of Proposed Treasury Regulation§1.401(a)(9)-8,A-
3, and that the Account shall be deemed divided (as of the date of my death) into
sepazate accounts, in proportion to the relative amounts payable to the respective
beneficiaries,with one such separate account payable to each ofmy beneficiaries for
purposes of determining the amount required to be distributed to each beneficiary
under § 40](a)(9) of the Internal Revenue Code. So long as the separate accounts
remain commingled,all investment gains and losses incurred in the Account shall be
allocated among the separate accounts pro rata, that is, in proportion to the relative
values of the separate accounts. A distribution from the Account to any beneficiary
(or a transfer from the Account to a separate individual retirement account,still in my
name and payable to such beneficiary) shall be charged to that beneficiary's separate
account (reducing its value for purposes of subsequent allocations of investment
gains or losses). The beneficiaries shall be entitled, by joint written instructions to
the Provider,Yo have the Account partitioned into multiple Accounts,corresponding
to each beneficiary's separate account, as of or at any time after my death, to the
maximum extent such division is permitted by ]aw to occur without causing a
deemed distribution of the Account. Following such partition the newly created
separated Accounts shall be maintained as if each were an Account in my name
payable solely to the applicable beneflciary,and no beneficiary shall have any further
interest in or claim to any Account other than the separate Account representing his
or her interest.
4. Withdrawal of Required Minimum Distributions: Each year, including the
year of my death, my Trustee shall withdraw from qualified retirement plan
benefits payable to any trust created under this Article the Required Minimum
Distribution(s) for that year.
- 6 -
5. Reauired Conduit Distributions: Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Will, my Trustee is directed to distribute any and all amounts withdrawn from
any qualified retirement plan benefits payable Yo any trust created under this
Article to SUSAN L. MEASE. The distributions may be made to SUSAN L.
MEASE on a quarterly or monthly basis, as the Trustee sees fit. The purpose of
this paragrapb is to qualify this trust created under this Article as a "conduit trusP'
under Treasury RegulaCion Section 1.401(a)(9)-5, A-7, Example 2. This
paragraph is to be interpreted, and to the extent necessary modified, by my
Trustee, effective ab initio to the date of my death, to constitute a conduit trust for
purposes of the required minimum distribution rules. My Trustee may deduct
trust expenses prior to payment to SUSAN L. MEASE provided deduction of
expenses does not disqualify conduit trust status.
6. Restriction on 'Pavments from Oualified Retirement Plans: I direct that
qualified retirement plan benefits not be used or applied on or after December 31
of the calendar year following my death for payment of my debts, taxes, expenses
of adminisYration or other claims against my estate or for payment of estate,
inheritance or similar transfer taxes due on account of my death.
7. Distributions to Un ualified Beneficiaries: If any trust beneficiary under
this Article is not an "individual" within the meaning of Section 401(a)(9) of the
Code and the applicable regulations, my Trustee may, by December 31 of the year
following the year of my death, distribute that beneficiary's entire interest
outright, and free of the trusY, to the beneficiary if, in my trustee's sole and
absolute judgment, failure to make the distribution would jeopardize the trusYs
treatment as a Designated Beneficiary under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code and
applicable regulations.
If Yhe value of an interest is not readily ascert�ainable for any beneficiary
who is not an individual, my Trustee may settle and agree upon a reasonable value
with the beneficiary and distribute the amount agreed between the Trustee and the
- 7 -
beneficiary. Any settlement must,however, be completed and distributed before
December 31 of the year following the year of my death.
B. Distribution of Income: My Trustee shal] distribute the income to SUSAN L.
MEASE, which could be done on a quarterly or monthly basis, but not ]ess than annually.
C. Distribution of Princinal: My Trustee has the discretion to expend and apply so much
of the net income and so much of the principal of the Trust as the Trustee shall consider
advisable for the support,health,care and education(including college,trade school,or other
similar training or education)of SUSAN L.MEASE. The Trustee may decide to establish a
regular schedule of disbursements to SUSAN L. MEASE as the Trustee sees fit based on
SUSAN L. MEASE's needs and comfortable lifestyle. Before making disbursements, the
Trustee shall bear in mind my goal that the trust funds be used as a supplemental source of
funds for SUSAN L. MEASE over her lifetime and not be disbursed immediately over a
short period of time.
Provided, however, that prior to taking any distribution from a qualified retirement
plan, my Trustee shall first determine whether a distribution would be subject to any state or
federal penalty taxes. My Trustee shall take al] reasonable precautions to ensure that a
distriburion from any qualified retirement plan is treated as a qualified distribution and
reduce or avoid application of sYate or federal penalty taxes to the distribution.
D. Distribution Upon the Death of Susan L. Mease� Upon the death of SUSAN L.
MEASE,any Trust funds remaining, including income and principal,shall be distributed to
her issue,per stirpes, subject to being held IN TRUST according to Articles X,XI and XII if
a share would be designated for JASON COLEBAUGH.
E. Optional Termination of Trust: Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, my
Trustee may, in my Trustee's sole discretion and at any time, terminate this Trust creaCed
under this Article if the amount thereof does not warrant the cost of continuing said trust
or if its administration would be otherwise impractical. Upon such termination, my
Trustee shall pay the principal and any accumulated or undistributed income of such trust
to SUSAN L. MEASE.
