THE
LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
OF
JOHN A. HOLLINGSHEAD
I, JOHN A. HOLLINGSHEAD, a United States Citizen, hereby revoke my prior Wills
and Codicils and declare this to be my Will.
I. Debts and Funeral Expenses. I direct that all my unsecured debts and funeral
expenses be paid and satisfied from my estate as soon as conveniently may be done after my
decease.
II. Personal Possessions. I give all of my personal effects and jewelry, household
effects and furniture, automobiles and accessories, and articles of a similar nature, together
with policies of insurance thereon against loss of any kind, in accordance with a written
statement or list signed by me and left with my Executor, Will, or among my personal papers
and effects. If no such statement or list is in existence at the time of my death; or to=the extent
that such statement or list does not dispose of all may personal possessions, I give such
remaining possessions to my wife, BARBARA M. HOLLINGSHEAD, if she shall survive me,
and otherwise to my daughter, ELIZABETH A. LANCIONE, and otherwise to.her�sur..viving
children in equal shares.
III. Residuary Estate. I give the remainder of my estate (specifically excluding any
property over which I have a power of appointment) to the Trustee under the John,A.

Hollingshead Family Trust executed by me and dated the same date as this Will, to be held for
the uses and purposes therein stated.
IV. Executor's Powers. In addition to and not in limitation of the powers vested in
fiduciaries by law, my Executor shall have the following powers:
A. To retain any investments and properties held by me at my death without
liability for loss by reason of such retention and without regard for principles of
diversification; to make investments and reinvestments of principal and accumulated income
without limitation to what are known as legal investments; and, to invest in mutual funds
without reducing fees or commissions otherwise payable hereunder to any Executor.
B. To make distributions in cash or in kind, or partly in each, to allocate
specific assets among beneficiaries and trusts in such manner as my Executor shall determine
and to the extent that any assets are distributed in kind, they shall be valued at their respective
values at the time of distribution.
C. To choose a date for valuing property in my estate, to use expenses and
losses as deductions for federal income tax or estate tax purposes or partly for each, to make
elections to use,the generation-skipping exemption for transfers during my lifetime or on death,
and among beneficiaries and trusts and to make other tax elections as shall be deemed
advisable without adjustments between income and principal, among beneficiaries or
otherwise. Provided, my Executor shall follow any directions contained in the foregoing Trust
and no Executor may make any such election which could not be made by such Executor if my
Executor were a Trustee under the•aforesaid Trust, and in such case my Executor shall make
2
Archer&Greiner, P.C., One Centennial Square, Haddonfield, NJ 08033
(609)795-2121
any such election only according to the determination of the Trustee with whom such decision
may be made under the trust.
D. To sever any trust into two or more trusts on a fractional basis to be
funded based on the fair market value of the trust assets on the date of funding, the terms of
each of the new trusts to provide for the same succession of interests and beneficiaries as are
provided in the original trust and not to change the terms, conditions and dispositive plan of
any trust nor to take any such action which would cause a trust which otherwise is eligible for
the federal estate tax marital or charitable deduction to not so qualify and, if done for
generation-skipping tax purposes, to be accomplished in such manner that the trusts shall be
treated as separate trusts for such purposes.
E. To retain the services of an investment advisor or transfer assets held
hereunder into a custodial, management, or similar account of such an advisor; and, if such
advisor is a bank or trust company otherwise qualified to act as a fiduciary, then the Trustee
may delegate full power of management, investment, and reinvestment thereto and be relieved
of liability except for actions taken in bad faith; and to compensate for such services out of the
assets held hereunder.
V. Survival. If my death and the death of my wife occur simultaneously it shall be
presumed for all purposes hereunder that my wife survived me.
VI. Protective Provision. To the extent permissible by law, no interest in income
or principal hereunder shall be subject or liable to anticipation, sale, assignment, pledge, debts,
3
Archer&Greiner, P.C., One Centennial Square, Haddonfield, NJ 08033
(609)795-2121
contracts, engagements, orders or liabilities, nor be subject or liable to levy, attachment,
execution, sequestration, or seizure under any legal, equitable, or other processes.
VII. Taxes. All estate, inheritance, and other death taxes (including interest and
penalties thereon) assessed or payable at or by reason of my death, shall be paid as provided in
the Trust hereinabove mentioned and except as provided therein, without reimbursement
therefor from the property or any of the beneficiaries or recipients of property included in my
estate for tax purposes.
I hereby authorize my Executor to do all things which are necessary and proper to
qualify all or any part of any Marital Gift under the aforesaid Trust for the federal estate tax
marital deduction and to make any and all filings which are required thereunder.
VIII. Executor. I appoint my wife, BARBARA M. HOLLINGSHEAD, Executor of
this my Will. Should my wife fail to qualify or, having qualified, cease to act as Executor,
then I appoint my daughter, ELIZABETH A. LANCIONE, to serve as Executor. In the event
that both of these persons fail to qualify as Executor or, having qualified, cease to act as
Executor, then I appoint my granddaughter, JANA M. LANCIONE, to serve as Executor. No
IExecutor qualified hereunder shall be required to give bond or security for the faithful
performance of duties in any jurisdiction whatsoever. Wherever the word "Executor" is used
in this Will, it shall be deemed to include all genders and the singular or plural thereof as the
case may be.
