SICCHITANO, of Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, being of sound and disposing mind, memory, and understanding, do hereby make, publish, and declare this to be my Last Will and Testament and hereby revoke all other Wills and Codicils that I have made, including the Will dated June 7, 1991. FIRST: With respect to the home which I own at 31 Warwick Circle, � Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, my son, DOUGLAS ANTHONY SICCHITANO, of Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, shall have the right to live in this property � together with all of the furnishings and other personal property associated with this home (such � g as the lawn equipment, for example) until his death or until he establishes a permanent residence at some other location, whichever shall first occur. During the period of time that my son exercises his right to this life estate in the property, he shall pa.y all expenses of liv�ng in this property, including property taxes and maintenance, together with the costs of any improvements to the property, whether necessary or cosmetic. Upon his death or the establishment of a permanent residence at some other location, the real property is to be sold and the proceeds and personal property divided equally among my children then living. SECOND: All the rest, residue, and remainder of my Estate, of whatever nature and wherever situate, I give and bequeath, in two equal shares, to my sons, so long as they each shall survive me by thirty (30) days: JOSEPH SCOTT SICCHITANO, of Harrisburg, North Carolina; and DOUGLAS ANTHONY SICCHITANO. Should either of my sons fail to survive me by thirty (30) days, but be represented by children then living, these children shall take,per stirpes, the share to which my son would have been entitled if then living. THIRD: If any portion of my Estate shall be payable to a beneficiary who is less than eighteen (18) years of age, my Executor may pay such share to the beneficiary's mother, as custodian for said minor, who shall deposit such share in the minor's name in a Uniform Transfer to Minors' Act account in a savings institution of the Executor's choosing, payable to � the minor in accordance with that Act. � FOURTH: All interests of any beneficiary in the income or principal of this Estate, � while undistributed and in the possession of my Executor, even though vested and � istributable shall not be sub'ect to attachment execution or se uestration for an debt, � d , J � q Y Q, contract, obligation or liability of any beneficiary and, furthermore, shall not be subject to pledge, assignment, conveyance, or anticipation. �.� FIFTH: All inheritance, estate, and succession taxes (including interest and any penalties thereon) payable by reason of my death shall be paid out of and be charged generally against the principal of my residuary estate, without apportionment or right of reimbursement from any person. In the event that a substantial portion, as determined in the sole and absolute judgment and discretion of my Executor, of the non-probate assets such as an annuity or mutual funds are directed to be paid to a beneficiary or beneficiaries, so that the taxes referred to herein would be paid out of the probate residue passing to the beneficiary or beneficiaries of this will (whether or not the same as the beneficiary or beneficiaries under the non-probate assets), my Executor, in the Executor's sole and absolute judgment and discretion, shall have the right to allocate the full or partial payment of the taxes to the beneficiary or beneficiaries of the non-probate assets. SIXTH: In addition to all rights and powers conferred by law, I authorize and empower my Executor and his successors, in his absolute discretion and without necessity of obtaining court approval: A. To buy investments at a premium or discount. B. To hold property unregistered or in the name of a nominee. C. To give proxies, both ministerial and discretionary. � D. To compromise claims. � E. To join any merger, consolidation, reorganization, voting trust � plan, or any other concerted action of security holders and to delegate discretionary duties with o� respect thereto. �' F.

To sell at public or private sale for cash or credit or partly for each, to exchange, or to lease for any period of time, any real or personal property, and to give options for sales, exchanges, or leases. I. To exercise any option permitted by law which he believes to be advantageous from the viewpoint of overall tax reductions, including, without limitation of the foregoing, power and authority to claim administration or other expenses either as income tax deductions or inheritance or estate tax deductions, without regard to whether they were paid from principal or income and without requiring adjustments between principal and income for any resulting effect on income or estate taxes, and a deduction of such expenses for income tax purposes shall be given effect in computing the respective shares of all persons interested in my estate set forth herein, even though the effect is to increase the share of one beneficiary or class of beneficiaries hereunder at the expense of another; and to make such adjustments, if any, between beneficiaries with respect thereto as he shall deem appropriate in view of the nature of the transaction and the amounts involved. J. To distribute in cash or in kind or partly in each. K. To employ agents, legal counsel, brokers, and assistants, and to pay their fees and expenses as he may deem necessary or advisable to carry out the provisions of this Will or any Trust. The powers granted hereunder shall be exercisable with respect to all real and personal property, including, but not limited to, income and principal held for minors or disabled � �� beneficiaries at any time, until the actual distribution of all property. All powers, authorities and discretion granted here shall be in addition to those granted by law and shall be exercisable � without leave of court. However, nothing herein shall be interpreted or construed to encourage, authorize, empower, or permit the Executor to act or cause anyone to act in a manner contrary to or inconsistent with accepted standards of portfolio diversification and risk management. SEVENTH: I nominate, constitute, and appoint my son, JOSEPH SCOTT SICCHITANO, as Executor of this, my Last Will and Testament. In the event of the renunciation, death, resignation, or inability of my son to act for whatever reason in this capacity, then I nominate, constitute, and appoint my other son, DOUGLAS ANTHONY SICCHITANO, as Executor of this, my Last Will and Testament. I direct that no representative named above shall be required to post security for the faithful performance of his duties in any jurisdiction insofar as I am able by law to relieve him of such obligation.
