STUM, of Lower Frankford Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, being of sound mind, disposing memory and full legal age, do hereby make, publish and declare this instrument to be my Last Will and Testament, hereby expressly revoking all Wills and Codicils heretofore made by me. 1. I direct my Executrix or Substitute Executrix, as the case may be, to pay all of my debts, funeral and administrative expenses as soon as may be done conveniently after my decease. Furthermore, I direct that all state, inheritance, succession and other death taxes imposed or payable by reason of my death and all interest and penalties thereon with respect to all property composing of my gross estate for death tax purposes, whether or not such property passes under this Will, shall be paid by the Executrix or Substitute Executrix from my estate, and that none of the aforesaid taxes shall be prorated among those persons named herein or otherwise beneficiaries hereunder. 2. My Executrix or Substitute Executrix may, at her discretion, compromise claims, borrow money, retain property for such length of time as she may deem proper; lease and sell property for such prices, on such terms, at public or private sale or sales, as she may deem proper; and invest estate property and income without restriction to legal investments unless otherwise provided hereunder. 3. I authorize and empower my Executrix or Substitute Executrix to sell any realty and/ar personalty owned by me at my death and not specifically devised or bequeathed herein, at public or private sale or sales and to give good and sufficient deeds and/or bills of sale therefor, in fee simple, as I could do if living. My Executrix or Substitute Executrix is authorized and empowered to engage in any business in which I may be engaged at my death, for such period of time after my death as seems expedient to said Executrix or Substitute Executrix. 4. I hereby give, devise and bequeath all of my estate of every nature and wherever situate to my wife, SHIRLEY M. STUM. 5. If my wife, SHIRLEY M. STUM, does not survive me by a period of at least sixty (60) days after my death, then my estate I give, devise and bequeath as follows: A. The sum of$5,000.00 to my sister-in-law, JUDY P. STINE; B.

HOMAN. 6. I hereby nominate and appoint my wife, SHIRLEY M. STUM, to be the Executrix of this my Last Will and Testament. In the event she has predeceased me, failed to qualify or is not able or does not serve for whatever reason, I then appoint my daughter, SHARI L. HOMAN, to serve as Substitute Executrix of this my Last Will and Testament, whereby the Substitute Executrix shall have the same powers as the original Executrix herein. 7. No Executrix or Substitute Executrix acting hereunder shall be required to post bond or enter security in this or any other jurisdiction. 8. No person ar persons shall benefit hereunder unless such beneficiary shall survive me for a period of at least sixty (60) days. 9. No beneficiary may assign, anticipate or pledge his or her interest in any income or principal held or distributable hereunder; and no beneficiary's creditors may levy, attach or otherwise reach any such interest. 2 10. If any person entitled to share in any distribution under the terms of this my Last Will and Testament becomes an adverse party in any proceeding to contest the probate of this Last Will and Testament, such person shall forfeit his or her entire interest inherited hereunder and all provisions in favor of such person shall be declared void and of no effect. The share of such person so forfeited shall be distributed as part of the residue pursuant to Paragraph 5 hereof except that if such person is entitled to share in the said residue, that interest shall be distributed proportionately to the other residuary beneficiaries. 11.
