TAYLOR, of Mechanicsburg, Upper Allen Township, FREDERICK R. TAYLOR RECORDED - OFFICE OF REGISTER OF WILLS 2005 APRIL 1 Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, do hereby make this my Last Will and Testament, revoking any former Wills and Codicils made by me. FIRST: I am married to Joanne L. Taylor, and all references to my wife in this Will are to her. I have three (3) children born of a prior marriage: MaryAnne T. Murtoff (born 5 July 1963), Margaretta Hanna (born 27 September 1970) and Allen R. Taylor (born 24 August 1961). These are described in this Will as "my children." SECOND: I desire that after my death my remains be cremated and my ashes disposed of as determined by my Executor. THIRD: I make the following bequests of personal property: (1) I give my Civil War desk and Hamilton clock to my son, Allen R. Taylor, if he survives me. (2) I give all of the rest and remainder of my tangible personal property and all casualty insurance that I am carrying on said tangible personal property to my wife, if she survive me. I have complete confidence that my wife and my Executor will honor any written instructions that I may leave with regard to said tangible personal property. Any such property not so distributed shall be sold, and the proceeds added to my residuary estate to pass as hereafter described. Page 1 of 6 FOURTH: I give, devise and bequeath the rest and remainder of my estate, real and personal, to my wife, Joanne L. Taylor, or, in the event she fails to survive me, in equal shares to my children, or their issue, per stirpes. FIFTH: (1) I name my wife, Joanne L. Taylor, as my Executrix. If she is unable or unwilling to serve, I name my son, Allen R. Taylor, as my Executor. I direct that my Executor, herein referred to as my Executor regardless of number or gender, serve without bond in any jurisdiction in which called upon to act. (2) I name my wife, Joanne L. Taylor, my Trustee. If she is unable or unwilling to serve, then I name my son, Allen R. Taylor, as my Trustee. I direct that my Trustee, herein referred to as my Trustee regardless of number or gender, shall serve without bond in any jurisdiction in which called upon to act. (3) My Executor and Trustee shall receive reasonable compensation for services rendered. (4) In the event my wife and I die simultaneously, my Executor and my wife's Executor together must agree on any and all matters relating to our estates, including all dispositions of the items of personal property in our estates. SIXTH: If any share hereunder becomes distributable to a beneficiary who has not attained the age of twenty-five (25) years, then such share shall immediately vest in such beneficiary, but notwithstanding the provisions herein, my Trustee shall retain possession of such share in trust for such beneficiary until such beneficiary attains the age of twenty-five (25) years, using so much of the net income and principal of such :J/J Page 2 of 6 share as my Trustee deems necessary to provide for the proper medical care, education, support and maintenance in reasonable comfort of such beneficiary, taking into consideration to the extent my Trustee deems advisable, any other income or resources of such beneficiary or his or her spouse known to my Trustee.

Such beneficiary's share shall be paid over and distributed to such beneficiary upon attaining the age of twenty-five (25) years, or if he or she shall sooner die, to his or her executors or administrators.

My Trustee shall have with respect to each share so retained all the powers and discretions had with respect to the trusts created herein generally. SEVENTH: I give to any Executor named in this Will or any Codicil hereto or to any successor or substitute Executor all of the powers enumerated in this Will and all of the powers applicable by law to fiduciaries in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and in particular through the Pennsylvania Probate, Estates and Fiduciaries Code, as effective and as in effect on the date hereof, during the administration and until the completion of the distribution of my estate.
