HUFFMAN, currently of 313 Raystown Circle, $�i�ipensbum�, Franklin County, Pennsylvania, being of sound mind, disposing memory and fu1�=legal age:;�riio hereby make, publish and declare this to be my Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking all Wills and Codicils heretofore made by me. ONE. I direct my Executor or Executrix, as the case may be, to pay all of my debts, funeral and administrative expenses as soon as convenient after my decease. Furthermore, I direct that all state, inheritance, succession and other death taxes imposed or payable by reason of my death and interest and penalties thereon with respect to all property composing of my gross estate for death tax purposes, whether or not such property passes under this Will, shall be paid by the Executor or Executrix of my estate. Further, to the extent that sufficient assets exist in my estate, any and all inheritance or other estate taxes, whether to non-charitable or charitable beneficiaries, shall be paid by my Executor or Executrix from the residuary of my estate. TWO. My Executor or Executrix may, at his or her discretion, compromise claims, borrow money, retain property for such length of time as he or she may deem proper; lease and sell property for such prices, on such terms, at public or private sales, as he or she may deem proper; and invest estate property and income without restriction to legal investments unless otherwise provided hereunder. I authorize and empower my Executor or Executrix to sell any realty and/or personalty owned by me at my death and not specifically devised or bequeathed herein, at public or private sale or sales and to give good and sufficient deeds and/or bills of sale therefor, in fee simple, as I could do if living. My Executor or Executrix is C' R'�' authorized and empowered to engage in any business in which I may be engaged at my death, for such period of time after my death as seems expedient to said Executor or Executrix. THREE. I give, devise and bequeath all of my estate to my son, JEREMY M. GEHRETT, per stirpes. If my son, JEREMY M. GEHRETT, has predeceased me without issue, then I give, devise and bequeath my estate to my sisters, DORIS C. McCANS and KAREN S. KELLEY, per stirpes. FOUR. I hereby nominate and appoint my sister, DORIS C. McCANS, to be the Executrix of this my Last Will and Testament. In the event for whatever reason she is unable to serve as the Executrix of my estate, then in that event I hereby appoint my sister, KAREN S. KELLEY to be the Substitute Executrix of this my Last Will and Testament, whereby the said substitute personal representatives shall have the same powers as are given to the original Executrix hereunder. FIVE. If, under any of the provisions of this Will, any principal becomes vested in a minor, my Executor or Executrix, as the case may be, including any administrator c.t.a., shall have the discretion either to pay over such principal or any part thereof to any parent of such minor, any guardian of the person or estate of such minor, or any person with whom such minor resides, or to retain the same as trustee of a power in trust far the benefit of such minor during his or her minority. Any �f the principal t.lus retained, and any o�the income therefrom, including the whole thereof, may be paid to or applied for the benefit of such minor from time to time in the discretion of the trustee of such power. When such minor reaches majority, the funds so held shall be paid over to such person, or, if he or she shall sooner die, to his or her legal representatives. In so holding any principal or income for any minor, the trustee of such power shall have all the rights, powers, duties and discretions conferred or imposed upon my fiduciaries acting under this Will. I further direct that no bond shall be required from any person receiving a 2 C�� payment hereunder and receipt from such person shall be a full discharge to the trustee of such power who shall not be bound to see to the application or use of such payment. The trustee of such power shall be entitled to commissions at the rates and in the manner payable to a testamentary trustee SIX. No person(s) shall benefit hereunder unless such beneficiary shall survive me by sixty(60) days. SEVEN. No Executrix or Executor acting hereunder shall be required to post bond or enter security in this or any other jurisdiction. EIGHT. No beneficiary may assign, anticipate or pledge its interest in any income or principal held or distributable hereunder, and no beneficiary's creditors may levy, attach or otherwise reach any such interest. NINE. If any person or institution entitled to share in any distribution under the terms of this my Last Will and Testament becomes an adverse party in any proceeding to contest the probate of this Last Will and Testament, such person or institution shall forfeit his, her or its entire interest inherited hereunder and all provisions in favor of such person or institution shall be declared void and of no effect. The share of such person or institution so forfeited shall be distributed as part of the residue hereof except that if such person or institution is entitled to share in the said residue, that interest shall be distributed proportionately to the other residuary distributees. 3 �A� IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and seal this ��'��day of ��3 n� , 2011. � (SEAL) C OL A.
