disposition of all the trusts who can qualify as a benefi-
ciary under the provisions of this Article, then the Trustee

the use of such minor so much"of the principal dr income
thereof as the Trustee may deem advisable. The Trustee may
make payment of any principal or income applicable to the
use of the minor: (a) by paying the same to a guardian or
otller�persom having the care or control of.the minor,'whose
receipt sliall be a full discharge for any such payment; (b)
by paying it to. a Custodian under the Uniform Gift to Piinors

If any beneficiary.is under a legal disability or, though
not adjudged incompetent, is, by reason of illness or mental
or physical disability, unable, in the Trustee's opinion, to

such payment or distribution for the benefit of such benefi-
ciary in such of the following ways as, in the Trustee's
discretion,.shall be most desirable: (a) directly to such

beneficiary; (b) to the duly qualified legal representative
of such beneficiary; (c) to a relative or friend of such
berieficiary; or _(d) by the Trustee using such payment di-
rectly for the bet�efit of such beneficiary. Distribution to
any one or more of the foregoing shall operate as a coinplete
acqt�ittance of the duties of the Trustee to make such pay-
ment or distribution.
4.10 Division of Trust Assets. At such time as
the Trustee is required to make complete or partial distri-
bution of a trust, or to divide a trust into parts, the
Trustee is authorized, in ttie Trustee`s discretion, to.
distribute or didide the trust assets in kind or.in cash, or
partly in kind and partly in cash, in ui�divided interests or
otherwise, and tlie .Trustee is authorized to appraise and
place values on the separate trust assets and may use such.
values as the basis for distribution in kind or for division
in kind. The power of the Trustee to convert assets into
cash or other assets sliall ilot terminate at the time re-
quired for distribution, but shall continue for a_reasonable
time thereafter to assist the Trustee in making an orderly`
distribution of the assets comprising the trust.
4.11 Simultaneous Death. If any beneficiarp of
this will or any Codicil thereto and I shall die in such
circumstances that there is not sufficient evidence that we
died otherwise than simultaneously, it shall be deemed that
such beneficiary predeceased me, except for my wife; who in
such case, shall be deemed to have survived me.
4.12 Invasion of Princi�al. Notwithstanding any
other provision contained in this Wi11, I direct the Trustee
to pay to any income beneficiary out of the principal of the
trust created for such beneficiary from time to time such
amount or amotints as the Trustee, in the Trustee's discretion,
sliall deem advisable to provide for the health, education,
support and maintenance in tlie manner of living to which the
beneficiary has been aecustomed during my lifetime. The
Trustee shall make distributions under this paragraph only
after having been satisfied by such evidence as the Trustee
deems appropriate that the reasonably available separate
resources of the.proposed distributee are insufficient to
provide for his or her needs as defined in this paragraph.
4.13 Duration of Trust. A trust created herein
sliall terminate when all the trust assets shall have been
fully distributed as hereinbefore provided, which date of
termination shall not in any event be later than twenty-one"
(21) years after the death of the surviyor of any benefi=
ciary in being at the date of my death. In the event of
termination under the provisions of this paragraph and upon
the date thereof, the entire trust shall be distributed to
those persons then entitled to the income from such trust in
the proportion that such.income.is distributable, or if the
income is distributable among a class of beneficiaries in
the discretion of the Trustee, then equally to the members .
of such class, regardless of the age which any distributee
otherwise eiititled shall have attained.
4.14 Exercise of Powers of Appointment. A power
of appointment granted herein may be exercised by the holder
tt�ereof only if specific reference to the power granted

herein is made in the document purporting to exercise such
power. In determining whether and to wliat extent a power of

notice of a Will within three (3) months after the holder's
death. A power of appointment exercisable by deed or a
right of withdrawal may be exercised only by appropriate

Trustee during the holder.'s lifetime.
