FIRST: I give and bequeath to the individuals whose names are set forth in the Schedule attached to this, my Last Will and Testament, the respective legacies described on the said Schedule. I have signed this Schedule in the margin for purposes of identification. Should any of these individuals fail to survive me by thirty (30) days or should said person for any reason be unable, or otherwise refuse, to accept the gift, then that gift shall become a part C� of my residuary estate. SECOND: I give, devise, and bequeath all the rest, residue, and remainder of my Estate, of whatever nature and wherever situate, in three equal shares, to those of my children who shall survive me by thirty (30) days: my son, JEFFREY L. PEIFFER, of Lemoyne, Pennsylvania; my daughter, ROBIN DERENDINGER, of Etters, Pennsylvania; and my daughter, ALLISON P. PEIFFER, of New Cumberland, Pennsylvania. Should any of my children fail to survive me by thirty (30) days, but be represented by children then living, these children shall take,per stirpes, the share to which my child would have been entitled if then living. THIRD: All interests of any beneficiary in the income or principal of this Estate, while undistributed and in the possession of my Executrix, even though vested and distributable, shall not be subject to attachment, execution or sequestration for any debt, contract, obligation or liability of any beneficiary and, furthermore, shall not be subject to pledge, assignment, conveyance, or anticipation. FOURTH: All inheritance, estate, and succession taxes (including interest and any penalties thereon) payable by reason of my death shall be paid out of and be charged generally against the principal of my residuary estate, without apportionment or right of reimbursement from any person. In the event that a substantial portion, as determined in the sole and absolute judgment and discretion of my Executrix, of the non-probate assets such as an annuity or mutual funds are directed to be paid to a beneficiary or beneficiaries, so that the taxes referred \ to herein would be paid out of the probate residue passing to the beneficiary or beneficiaries of this will (whether or not the same as the beneficiary or beneficiaries under the non-probate assets), my Executrix, in the Executrix's sole and absolute judgment and discretion, shall have `( the right to allocate the full or partial payment of the taxes to the beneficiary or beneficiaries of the non-probate assets. FIFTH: In addition to all rights and powers conferred by law, I authorize and empower my Executrix and her successors, in her absolute discretion and without necessity of obtaining court approval: A. To buy investments at a premium or discount. B. To hold property unregistered or in the name of a nominee. C. To give proxies, both ministerial and discretionary. D. To compromise claims. E.

I. To exercise any option permitted by law which she believes to be advantageous from the viewpoint of overall tax reductions, including, without limitation of the foregoing, power and authority to claim administration or other expenses either as income tax I deductions or inheritance or estate tax deductions, without regard to whether they were paid from principal or income and without requiring adjustments between principal and income for any resulting effect on income or estate taxes, and a deduction of such expenses for income tax C� Y purposes shall be given effect in computing the respective shares of all persons interested in I- my estate set forth herein, even though the effect is to increase the share of one beneficiary or i class of beneficiaries hereunder at the expense of another; and to make such adjustments, if any, between beneficiaries with respect thereto as she shall deem appropriate in view of the nature of the transaction and the amounts involved. J. To distribute in cash or in kind or partly in each. K. To employ agents, legal counsel, brokers, and assistants, and to pay their fees and expenses as she may deem necessary or advisable to carry out the provisions of this Will or any Trust.

All powers, authorities and discretion granted here shall be in addition to those granted by law and shall be exercisable without leave of court. However, nothing herein shall be.interpreted or construed to encourage, authorize, empower, or permit the Executrix to act or cause anyone to act in a manner contrary to or inconsistent with accepted standards of portfolio diversification and risk management. SIXTH: I nominate, constitute, and appoint my daughter, ROBIN DERENDINGER, as Executrix of this, my Last Will and Testament. In the event of the renunciation, death, resignation, or inability of my daughter to act for whatever reason in this capacity, then I nominate, constitute, and appoint my other daughter, ALLISON P. PEIFFER, as Executrix of this, my Last Will and Testament.
