ARTICLE I FAMILY 1.01. IDENTIFICATION OF MY FAMILY I declare that I am married to Richard Biggs and that I have three children: Steven Biggs, Robin Clouser, and Kerry Biggs. 1.02. DEFINITION OF FAMILY TERMS As used in this Will, the term "my spouse" shall mean only Richard Biggs. As used in this Will, the term "my children' refers only to the above-referenced children set forth in Paragraph 1.01. The term .'my children' excludes all other persons. For purposes of inheritance from me, the "children' of an individual shall be interpreted to include persons who have been legally adopted by the individual but shall exclude stepchildren who have not been legally adopted. ARTICLE 2 PAYMENT OF DEBTS AND TAXES 2.01. PAYMENT OF DEBTS I direct my Executor to pay all of my debts that my Executor in my Executor's sole discretion may allow as claims against my estate. 2.02. PAYMENT OF TAXES direct my Executor to pay out of the principal of my residuary estate all inheritance, transfer, estate, and similar taxes (including interest and penalties), assessed or payable by reason of my death, on any property or interest in property that is included in my estate for the purpose of computing such taxes. My Executor shall not require any recipient of such property or interest in such property to reimburse my estate for taxes paid under this paragraph. ARTICLE 3 DISTRIBUTION OF ESTATE TO BENEFICIARIES 3.01. SPECIFIC BEQUEST TO SUPPORT TRUST FOR SPOUSE If my spouse survives me by one hundred seventy (170) days, I give, devise, and bequeath to my Trustee, hereinafter named, for the benefit and support of my spouse, cash, securities, or other property of my estate, including, without limitation, personal property and effects, having a value equal to the amount, if any, that my spouse would be entitled to receive if my spouse exercised my 1 spouse's elective share rights as set forth in section 2201, at seq. of the Pennsylvania Probate, Estates, and Fiduciaries Code (the "PEF Code'); provided that the amount of this bequest shall be reduced to the extent my spouse has waived the right to elect under PEF Code Section 2207 or forfeited the right to elect under PEF Code Section 2208. In determining the amount of this bequest, my spouse shall be deemed to have elected, pursuant to PEF Code Section 2204(c), to retain all beneficial interests in property that my spouse would otherwise be required to disclaim if my spouse exercised my spouse's elective share rights. Contingent upon my spouse surviving me by said one hundred seventy (170) days, it is my intention that, as a result of my death, my spouse shall receive property having a value equal to (but not more than) that which my spouse would receive if my spouse were to exercise my spouse's elective share rights. My Executor shall have the sole and exclusive discretion to select the assets that shall fund this bequest. If my spouse does not survive me by one hundred seventy (170) days, this bequest shall be distributed as part of the residuary estate. In the event my husband survives me and it is determined by either a court or an authority of competent jurisdiction or in the event my Personal Representative(s) reasonably believes that my husband will be required to elect against my estate so to prevent him from being ineligible to receive or to continue to receive any governmental assistance benefits, then I give to my Personal Representative(s) as TRUSTEE IN SEPERATE TRUST, an amount equal to my husband's statutory elective share under 20 PA C.S.A. Chapter 22, and I direct the Trustee to retain, invest, reinvest and distribute, any income and principal of the trust share set aside for my husband, as follows: A. The Trustee may, in the Trustee's sole discretion, distribute for the benefit of my husband, discretionary amounts of principal for supplemental needs not otherwise provided by governmental financial assistance and benefits or by the providers of services. Such amounts shall not be distributed directly to such beneficiary. B. "Supplemental needs" refer to the requisites for maintaining the good health, safety and welfare of such beneficiary when in the discretion of my Trustee such requisites are not being provided by any public agency, office or department of any state or of the United States. "Supplemental needs" shall also include, but not be limited to, medical and dental expenses, annual independent check-ups, equipment, programs of training, education, treatment and rehabilitation, private residential care, transportation (including vehicle purchase), maintenance, insurance and essential dietary needs. "Supplemental needs" may include spending money, electronic equipment such as radios, record players, television sets, computer equipment, camping, vacations, athletic contests, movies, trips and money to purchase appropriate gifts for relatives and friends. C. The Trustee shall have no obligation to expend trust assets for such needs, but if the Trustee in its sole discretion decides to expend trust assets, under no circumstances should any amounts be paid to or reimbursed to the federal government, any state or any governmental agency for any purpose, including for the care, support and maintenance of my husband. D. No part of the trust share set aside for my husband shall be used to supplant or replace public assistance benefits of any state or federal agency which has a legal responsibility to serve persons with illnesses or handicaps which are the same or similar to the disorders of such beneficiary. E. No interest in the principal or income of the trust share set aside for such beneficiary shall be anticipated, assigned or encumbered or shall be subject to any creditor's claim or to legal process prior to its actual receipt by my husband. My husband is specifically prohibited from any right to receive, demand, secure, give, assign, transfer, mortgage, borrow against or will any trust assets or income. 2 F. It is my intention to conserve and maintain this trust share for the supplemental needs of my husband. Therefore, no part of this trust share, neither principal nor undistributed net income, shall be subject to the claims of voluntary or involuntary creditors for the provisions of care and services, including residential care by any public entity, office, department or agency of any state or government agency or of the federal government of the United States. G. In the event it is determined by either a court or an authority of competent jurisdiction that these trust assets render my husband ineligible to receive any governmental assistance benefits, or if the Trustee in its sole discretion determines that notwithstanding the provisions set forth above, this trust share may be subject to garnishment, attachments, execution or bankruptcy proceedings by a creditor of such beneficiary or by the federal or state government or any agency or subdivision thereof, then my Trustee shall terminate the trust share set aside for husband and distribute the remaining principal and accrued income pro rata to my residuary heirs under Item Four, above, the contingent beneficiaries. H. I request but do not direct that the contingent beneficiaries conserve, manage and distribute the proceeds of the former trust share set aside for my husband in accordance with the provisions as set forth above. I. In determining whether the existence of the trust share has the effect of rendering my husband ineligible to receive any governmental assistance benefits, the Trustee is hereby granted full and complete discretion to initiate administrative or judicial proceedings for the purpose of determining eligibility. All costs related thereto, including reasonable attorney's fees, shall be a proper charge to this trust share of my husband. J. If my husband should die before the complete distribution of this trust estate, this trust shall terminate and the Trustee shall distribute the balance of the trust property to my residuary heirs under Item Four, above, my contingent beneficiaries. 3.02. DISPOSITION OF RESIDUARY ESTATE All of the rest, residue, and remainder of the property that I own at the time of my death, both real and personal, of every kind and description, wherever situated, to which I may be legally or equitably entitled at the time of my death (my "residuary estate"), I give in equal shares, per stirpes, to my children, STEVEN BIGGS, ROBIN CLOUSER, and KERRY BIGGS. However, my son, STEVEN BIGGS, has already received an advancement of$5,000; thus, his share of my estate will be $5,000 less than the rest of my children. I may leave a Memorandum listing some of the items of my tangible personal property which I wish certain persons to have and request that my wishes as set forth in the memorandum be observed by my Personal Representative(s). In the event that either/any of my children should fail to survive me, I direct that his or her share of my estate shall be paid in equal shares to those of his or her children who do survive me. In the event that either/ any of my children should fail to survive me and leave no children who so survive me, then I direct that his or her share shall be paid as an addition to the shares of other beneficiaries of my residuary estate in proportion to their interests in my residuary estate. 3.03. TRANSFERS TO CUSTODIANS FOR BENEFICIARIES UNDER THE AGE OF TWENTY-FIVE (25)YEARS Should any beneficiary of mine be under the age of twenty-five (25) years, my Personal Representative shall hold such beneficiary's share of my estate, as Trustee, IN TRUST and shall invest, reinvest and distribute the principal and net income of such beneficiary's share as follows: 3 a. Until such beneficiary attains the age of twenty-five (25) years, my Trustee, in my Trustee's sole but reasonable discretion, may pay or apply the income and any or all of the principal of such beneficiary's share for the health, maintenance, support and education of such beneficiary considering all other sources of income available to such beneficiary and known to my Trustee. Upon such beneficiary attaining the age of twenty-five (25) years, my Trustee shall distribute the balance of the principal and accumulated income, if any, of each such beneficiary's share to such beneficiary. b. Should the principal of the Trust Estate, in the sole opinion of my Trustee, be or become too small to warrant placing or continuing of such fund in trust or should its administration be or become impractical for any other reason, my Trustee, in the exercise of their sole discretion, may pay such share absolutely to the person maintaining such beneficiary or may place such shares in the beneficiary's name in an interest-bearing deposit in any bank, bank and trust company or national banking association of his or her choosing, payable to the beneficiary at majority, or if said beneficiary has reached his or her majority, then to him or her directly. C. All shares of principal and income hereby given shall be free from anticipation, assignment, pledge or obligation of my beneficiary(s), and shall not be subject to any execution or attachment. ARTICLE 4 FIDUCIARIES 4.01. EXECUTOR appoint my son, KERRY BIGGS, to be Executor of my estate. In the event that my son, KERRY BIGGS, is unable or unwilling to act or continue as Executor, for any reason whatsoever, then I appoint my daughter, ROBIN CLOUSER, to be Executor of my estate. 4.02. TRUSTEE I appoint my son, KERRY BIGGS, to be Trustee of every trust and trust share established under this Will. In the event that my son, KERRY BIGGS, is unable or unwilling to act or continue as such, for any reason whatsoever, I appoint my daughter, ROBIN CLOUSER, as Trustee of every trust and trust share established under this Will. 4.03. WAIVER OF BOND None of the Executors, Guardians, or other Fiduciaries named in this Will shall be required to furnish bond for the faithful performance of his or her duties. ARTICLE 5 SUCCESSOR TRUSTEES 5.01. RESIGNATION OF TRUSTEE Any Trustee may resign by giving written notice, specifying the effective date of the resignation, to the beneficiaries then entitled to the trust income. 5.02. APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE If all Trustees named in this instrument are unable or refuse to act, a successor Trustee may be appointed as Trustee by a written instrument delivered to the successor Trustee and signed by my son, KERRY BIGGS, and my daughter, ROBIN CLOUSER, or the survivor of them. No successor Trustee shall be liable for acts, defaults, or omissions of any prior Trustee. Any successor Trustee 4 with the written approval of the persons appointing the successor Trustee shall accept as correct without examination the accounts rendered by the prior Trustees and property delivered by the prior Trustees without incurring any liability. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed as requiring the naming of a successor Trustee as long as any Trustee named in this instrument shall continue to act as Trustee hereunder. 5.03. POWERS OF SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE Any successor Trustee shall have the title, duties, powers, and discretion as the Trustee succeeded without the necessity of conveyance or transfer. ARTICLE 6 POWERS OF ADMINISTRATION 6.01. My Executor or other Personal Representative, my Trustees, and Guardians (all of whom are hereafter sometimes referred to as my "Fiduciaries") in regard to the administration of my estate, the administration of the trust and trust shares created under this Will, and such other actions as may be taken by my Fiduciaries, shall have the powers and authority set forth in this Article. These powers may be exercised by my Fiduciaries in the Fiduciary's sole and absolute discretion, without the permission or order of any court. These powers shall be supplementary to the powers conferred by law, including but not limited to those set forth in Title 20, Chapter 33, of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes. 6.02. If a Fiduciary is at any time required to make payments of principal or income to or for the benefit of any beneficiary who is a minor, or is an incompetent or incapacitated person, or is a person whom the Fiduciary in his or her sole discretion deems unable to handle funds properly or wisely if paid directly to the beneficiary, the Fiduciary in his or her sole discretion and without court approval may make payments in any one or more of the following ways: a. Directly to the beneficiary; b. To the natural Guardian or legally appointed Guardian of the Person or Estate of the beneficiary; C. By making expenditures directly for the care, support, maintenance, or education of the beneficiary, d. To any person or organization furnishing care, support, maintenance, or education for the beneficiary; e. To any custodial parent of a minor beneficiary; f. Directly to creditors in payment of the debts and expenses of the beneficiary, g. To a Custodian for the beneficiary under any law related to gifts or transfers to minors, including to my Executor in that capacity; h. To an Attorney-in-Fact authorized to act for the beneficiary pursuant to a Durable Power of Attorney. 5 The Fiduciary shall not be required to see to the application of any funds paid or applied in any of the aforementioned ways and the receipt of the payee shall be full acquittance. The decision of the Fiduciary with regard to the selection of which of the aforementioned methods should be used in making payments shall be conclusive and binding on all parties concerned. 6.03. My Fiduciaries shall have the power to invest in, accept and retain any real or personal property, including stock, savings, checking, and other accounts of a corporate Fiduciary or its holding company, without restriction to legal investments. 6.04.

My Fiduciaries shall have the power to make elections, decisions, concessions, and settlements in connection with all income, estate, inheritance, gift or other tax returns and the payment of such taxes, without obligation to adjust the distributive share of income or principal of any person affected thereby. 6.10. My Fiduciaries shall have the power to retain uninvested cash, in such amounts and for such period of time as the Fiduciaries shall deem advisable for the proper administration of the property. 6.11. My Fiduciaries shall have the power to manage, control, improve, and repair real and personal property belonging to the estate. 6 6.12. My Fiduciaries shall have the power to employ an accountant, attorney, investment adviser, broker, tax specialist, or any other Agent deemed appropriate in the discretion of the Fiduciaries, including persons associated with or employed by any Fiduciaries, and to pay from the estate reasonable compensation for all services performed by any of them. 6.13. My Fiduciaries shall have the power to borrow money for any estate purpose from any person, firm, or corporation, including one acting as a Fiduciaries hereunder, on the terms and conditions deemed appropriate by the Fiduciaries and to obligate estate and trust assets for repayment; to encumber the estate or any trust or any property thereof by mortgage, deed of trust or otherwise, using whatever procedures to consummate the transaction deemed advisable by the Fiduciaries, and to replace, renew, and extend any encumbrance and to pay any loans or other obligations of the estate deemed advisable by the Fiduciaries. 6.14. Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, my Fiduciaries shall be authorized to invest in all forms of real and personal property of every kind, without restriction to investments authorized for Fiduciaries and without regard to any principle of diversification or risk, as the Fiduciary shall determine to be appropriate in the Fiduciary's sole and exclusive discretion. ARTICLE 7 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 7.01. As long as any income or principal to which any beneficiary under my Will may be entitled remains in the possession of the Fiduciary and is not actually distributed to the beneficiary, such income or principal shall not be subject to anticipation or alienation by the beneficiary, by assignment, or by any other means (except as specifically authorized herein), and it shall be free and clear of the beneficiary's debts and obligations and shall not be taken, seized, or attached by any process whatsoever. 7.02. Whenever appropriate in this Will, the singular shall be deemed to include the plural and vice versa; and the masculine shall be deemed to include the feminine, and vice versa, and each of them to include the neuter, and vice versa. 7.03. For all purposes hereunder, the word "property" shall be deemed to include real and personal property and any interest of any kind in any real or personal property; and the word "give" shall be taken to include the words "devise" and "bequeath" wherever appropriate in order to effectuate the testamentary transfer of real or personal property. 7.04.

No individual Trustee appointed under this Will shall at any time be held liable for any action or default of himself or his Agent or of any other person in connection with the administration of the trust estate, unless caused by his own gross negligence or by the willful commission by him of an act of breach of trust. 7.06. The Trustee shall receive reasonable fees for the ordinary and extraordinary services rendered by the Trustee. 7.07. Should any of the provisions of my Will be for any reason declared invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any of the other provisions of this Will and all invalid provisions shall be wholly disregarded in interpreting this Will. 7.08. If any beneficiary, person or entity in any manner, directly or indirectly, contests or attacks this Will or any of its provisions, or objects to the accounts or actions of my fiduciaries, without probable cause, such beneficiary, person or entity shall pay all costs, including but not limited to attorneys' fees, arising in connection with such contest, attack or objection incurred by my estate, such trust or such fiduciary personally. In the event that such beneficiary, person or entity does not prevail in such action, any share or interest in my estate or such trust which would otherwise pass to such beneficiary, person, entity or remainderman under this Will shall be revoked and the property consisting of such share shall be disposed of in the manner provided herein as if that contesting person or entity had predeceased me without surviving issue. ARTICLE 8 MERGER, CONSOLIDATION, AND DIVISION 8.01. For convenience of administration or investment, the Trustee of any trusts created hereunder may: a. Invest the assets of multiple trusts in a single fund, assigning them undivided interests in such common fund, dividing the income proportionately and accounting for them separately; b.
