DAVIS, Social Security Number of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, declare that this is my LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT and I revoke all other wills and codicils previously made by me. I. I appoint my son, ALAN J. DAVIS of Pennsylvania as my Personal Representative concerning this Will. A. I request that my Personal Representative be permitted to serve without bond or surety thereon and without the intervention of any court, except as required by law. I direct that my Personal Representative act in unsupervised administration so as to administer my estate with a minimum of court supervision. If it becomes necessary to have ancillary administration of my estate in any jurisdiction where my Personal Representative is unable or does not desire to qualify as ancillary legal representative, I appoint as such ancillary legal representative such individual or corporation as my Personal Representative shall designate, in writing. B. I direct my Personal Representative to pay the expenses of my last illness, the expenses of a funeral appropriate to my station in life and custom of living (including a suitable monument or marker for my grave), and written charitable pledges which I have made. I grant my Personal Representative the power to extend or renew any debt for such time as my Personal Representative shall deem appropriate. C. All estate, inheritance, succession and other death taxes with respect to all property passing under this my Will shall be paid from and borne by the principal of my residuary estate, without regard to reimbursement, as if such taxes were administration expenses. My Personal Representative may pay such taxes at any time deemed advisable,whether or not then due and payable. D. My Personal Representative is requested to settle my estate as soon after my death as may be practicable, and to pay or deliver every legacy or bequest to my beneficiaries without waiting any time that may be believed to be customary in probate matters. Last Will and Testament of VIRGINIA DAVIS Page 1 � YE i��,,, � 7�/�� `' ` ��c,,o„- � - _ _ _ _ _ . _ _ _ _ _ _ E. I may leave a letter of intent with the executed copy of this Will for the purpose of giving guidance to my Personal Representative concerning the distribution or sale of certain items of my property. I request,but do not require, that my Personal Representative honor my wishes therein expressed. II. I give, devise and bequeath, absolutely and forever, all of my estate and property of which I may be seized or possessed, or to which I may be entitled, at the time of my death, wherever situated or of whatever nature, be it real, personal, or mixed, to my son, ALAN J. DAVIS of Pennsylvania as his sole and absolute property if he shall survive me. III. Except as otherwise provided in this Will, I have intentionally failed to provide for any other relatives or other persons,whether claiming to be an heir of mine or not. Insofar as I have failed to provide in this Will for any of my issue now living or later born or adopted, such failure is intentional and not occasioned by accident or mistake. IV. Any beneficiary who fails to survive until One Hundred and Twenty(120)hours after my death shall be deemed to have predeceased me, and the gift to that beneficiary shall be disposed of accordingly. V. The term "Personal Representative" as used in this Will shall have the same meaning as Executor, Executrix, Independent Executor, or any other title of like import which is used to describe such a fiduciary. VI. In addition to any powers granted by the laws of the jurisdiction in which this Will is probated, I hereby authorize and empower the fiduciaries named in this Will, to the extent of the discretion herein granted, to sell, exchange, convey, transfer, assign, mortgage,pledge, lease or rent the whole or any part of my real or personal estate, to invest,reinvest, or retain investments of my estate, to perform all acts and to execute all documents which my fiduciaries may deem necessary or proper in regard to my property. If any of my fiduciaries elect to receive compensation for services, such compensation will be that allowed by law. VII. If any part of this Will shall be invalid, illegal, or inoperative for any reason, it is my intention that the remaining parts, so far as possible and reasonable, shall be effective and fully operative. My Personal Representative may seek and obtain court instructions for the purpose of carrying out as nearly as may be possible the intention of this Will as shown by the terms hereof, including any terms held invalid, illegal, or inoperative.
