I, VIRGINIA M. 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.

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.
