I, SALLY LOU ACKROYD, of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, make this

Article One
Distribution of My Property
Section 1. Pour-Over to My Living Trust
All of my property of whatever nature and kind, wherever situated, shall be
distributed to my revocable living trust. The name of my trust is:
SALLY LOU ACKROYD and TED J. ACKROYD, Trustees of the
SALLY LOU ACKROYD LIVING TRUST, dated November 15, 2006,
and any amendments thereto.
Section 2. Alternate Disposition

Section 3. Testamentary Trust
If my spouse survives me, I authorize my personal representative to establish,
with the assets of my probate estate, if any, or with any property distributed to my
personal representative from my Trustee, a testamentary trust (or trusts) for the
benefit of my spouse and my other beneficiaries under the same terms and
conditions of my revocable living trust as it exists at the date of my death. I
appoint the Trustee and successor Trustee named in my revocable living trust as
the Trustee and successor Trustee of my testamentary trust(s). The Trustee of my
testamentary trust(s) shall have all the administrative and investment powers
given to my Trustee in my revocable living trust and any other powers granted by
law.
My Trustee shall be under no obligation to distribute property directly to my
personal representative, but rather may distribute such property directly to the
Trustee of the testamentary trust(s). Any property distributed to my testamentary
trust(s) by the Trustee of my revocable living trust shall be distributed by the
Trustee of my testamentary trust(s) in accordance with the terms and conditions of
my revocable living trust as it exists on the date of my death.

living trust to determine whether any expense or tax shall be paid from my trust or
from my probate estate.
Section 2. Tax Elections
My personal representative, in its sole and absolute discretion, may exercise any
available elections with regard to any state or federal tax laws.
My personal representative, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect to have
all, none, or part of the property comprising-my estate for federal estate tax
purposes qualify for the federal estate tax marital deduction as qualified
terminable interest property under Section 2056(b)(7) of the Internal Revenue
Code.
My personal representative shall not be liable to any person for decisions made in
good faith under this Section

All expenses and claims and all estate, inheritance, and death taxes, excluding any
generation-skipping transfer tax, resulting from my death and which are incurred
as a result of property passing under the terms of my revocable,living trust or
through my probate estate shall be paid without apportionment and without
reimbursement from any person. However, expenses and claims, and all estate,
inheritance, and death taxes assessed with regard to property passing outside of
my revocable living trust or outside of my probate estate, but included in my
