The-Granter-c-eafians-that-hi4 EON'S Executors have the
absolute discretion to determine whether and to what extent to make an election
pursuant to Section 2056(b)(7) of the Code, or any successor thereto, and any similar
statute under state law. The-GfanterLsLEON' Executors may determine to make said
election or elections with respect to all or any part or none of the Marital Trust created
under this Clause, all in the Executors' complete discretion. The Grantor suggests to
his Executors-byty way of illustration and without limiting such Executors' absolute
authority, that-the-Granter. rIEDN's Executors may consider in making said election
not only the Federal and state estate tax consequences for the-GranterLsLEON's estate
but also the Federal and state estate and gift tax consequences for DEBRA which result
from said election. The determination of the-Granter-LsI.EON's Executors as to
whether and to what extent to make said election shall be absolute and conclusive,
regardless of the personal interest any such Executor may have in the consequences of
such election. The-GramerlsJ.EON's Executors shall not be held liable, responsible or
accountable, in court or otherwise, to any beneficiary, for the consequences of the
exercise, the manner of exercise or failure to exercise the power confirmed in this
Clause.

trust under this Clause for which an election is made by the-GrantersILEMes
Executors to qualify for the marital deduction. The-Granter-furtherdireets-that-anyAnz
trust principal passing under this Clause which the-CaFanterLsI.F.ON's Executors elect to
qualify for the marital deduction for either state estate tax purposes or Federal estate
tax purposes, but not both, also shall be held in a separate trust. All such trusts shall
be administered under this Clause in accordance with the terms above set forth.

inM making discretionary principal payments to DEBRA pursuant to paragraph (B) of
this Clause, the Trustees max take into account all potential transfer taxes.
(2)
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary: (a) any power, duty or discretionary authority granted to any Trustee
hereunder (other than the power to make elections under any tax law) shall be
absolutely void to the extent that the right to exercise such power, duty or authority or
the exercise thereof would in any way affect, jeopardize or cause the disallowance to
any trust created under this Clause of all or any part of the tax benefit afforded by the
marital deduction provisions of Section 2056 of the Code (to the extent so elected by
the Executors of the-Granter-14.RON's estate), and (b) in the event that any property
not productive of income shall be held in any Marital Trust under this Clause, upon
DEBRA's written request, the Trustees shall make such property productive of income
or shall convert such property to income producing property within a reasonable period
of time.

(3)
If any part of DEBRA's gross estate for Federal
tax purposes consists of property which is includible by reason of Section 2044 of the
Code, relating to certain property for which the marital deduction was allowed in the
GpaateFIsI.FON's estate, the Executors of DEBRA's estate shall be entitled to recover
from the Trustees of the Marital Trust created under this Clause the estate taxes
payable by DEBRA's estate by reason of such inclusion, in accordance with the Code
and the law of DEBRA's domicile at the time of her death; provided that none of the
payments shall be made from property which is not included in DEBRA's gross estate
for Federal estate tax purposes.
FOURTH:
GUIDELINES AND LIMITATIONS
(A)
(I)
After taking into account the provisions of
paragraph (B) of Clause THIRD and paragraph (C) of this Clause FOURTH, in
exercising the discretionary powers granted to the Trustees to pay principal under any
trust created hereunder, the Trustees shall have absolute discretion and plenary power
to pay principal for any reason or purpose whatever, even to the extent of terminating a
trust by paying all of the principal at any one time. In paying principal, the Trustees
need not consider the other resources that may be available from any source to the
beneficiary and may pay principal without regard to the need of the beneficiary therefor.
The-Granter—suggests-te-the-Trusteesr but-only-byft way of illustration and without
limiting theirthe Trasten' plenary powers, that—principal may be paid in the Trustees'
discretion not only to enable a beneficiary to meet the expenses of emergencies or
illness or medical, dental or nursing care, but also to make up deficiencies in income
EFTA00590355
Dort USI:103)1641O
caused by inflation or changes in the beneficiary's cost or style of living; because of the
burdens of income or estate or gift or generation-skipping transfer ("GST") taxation or
changes in the tax laws; to enable a beneficiary to obtain the best possible education
(including graduate and professional training), to take advantage of a business,
professional or investment opportunity, to assume and meet family responsibilities,
travel, acquire a dwelling (including a seasonal dwelling or a cooperative apartment), or
for any other reason whatsoever that the Trustees may have at any time. The Granter
wishes-te-stfess-that-the-interest of the remaindermen shall be secondary and
subordinate to the well-being of the income beneficiary or beneficiaries. The judgment
of the Trustees as to whether, when and to what extent to pay principal of any trust
shall be absolute and conclusive and no court shall have power under any statute to
direct payment of principal to any beneficiary or any creditor of a beneficiary.
(B)
In exercising the discretionary powers granted to the
Trustees with respect to the Discretionary Trust and each Separate Trust, after taking
into account the provisions of paragraph (C) of this Clause FOURTH, in determining
whether to pay or accumulate income, the Trustees may pay income for any reason or
purpose, and the Trustees need not consider the other resources that may be available
from any source to a beneficiary. The Trustees may at any time, in their sole and
absolute discretion, pay income and/or principal to any one of the eligible beneficiaries,
exclusively, or to any two or more of such beneficiaries in equal or unequal shares,
without regard to any prior payments that may have been made by the Trustees. The
9
EFTA00590356
Dad: 11S1:101)1641•i
determinations of the Trustees as to what extent and to whom to pay (or not pay)
income and principal at any time shall be conclusive.
(C)
In exercising the discretionary powers to pay income
and/or principal to a beneficiary of the Discretionary Trust or a Separate Trust, in
addition to any other factors the Trustees deem appropriate, the GFanter-requestsr bm
dees-noi-difeet-er-FequiFer that-the-Trustees gay consider the following factors:
(I)
Whether the beneficiary has taken appropriate steps
to educate and familiarize himself or herself regarding financial matters, asset
management and estate planning, and whether the beneficiary has reasonable access to
competent professional advisors.
(2)
Whether there is a Pending Matrimonial Action (as
defined in Clause THIRTEENTH) or Marital Discord (as defined in Clause
THIRTEENTH) with respect to the beneficiary.
(3)
The extent to which the beneficiary is indebted to
creditors, including former spouses, or otherwise involved in any litigation.
(4)
Whether the beneficiary is suffering from a
psychological or medical condition that may impair the beneficiary's emotional stability,
regardless of whether the beneficiary is seeking any treatment, either inpatient or
outpatient. The Trustees may consult with medical personnel as necessary to make the
determination.
EFTA00590357
11S1:101/5641O
(5)
Whether the beneficiary will use the distributed
funds to perpetuate a drug or alcohol problem or other negative addictive activities,
such as gambling.
(D)
Subject to paragraph (A) of Clause SIXTH, the-Granter
specific-ally-authorizes-the Independent Trustees who may participate in decisions with
respect to distributions from a trust created under any provision of this
AgrccmcntDeclaratiou (the "Original Trust") are specifically authorizes, in lieu of
distributing income and/or principal to a beneficiary or beneficiaries of the Original
Trust (the "Initial Class"), to pay, for any reason or purpose whatsoever, so much,
including all, of such income and/or principal to one or more existing trusts or new
trusts to be created or established by any person (including the Trustees) at any time,
whether with the Trustees of the Original Trust or other trustees, for such beneficiary
or beneficiaries (an "Other Trust"), in such amounts or proportions, even to the
exclusion of one or more current or contingent beneficiaries of the Original Trust, as
said Independent Trustees, with absolute discretion, deem advisable, without notice to
current or contingent beneficiaries of the Original Trust and without court filings of any
kind; provided, however, no share of principal from an Original Trust with an inclusion
ratio (as defined in Section 2642(a)(1) of the Code) of greater than zero shall be added
to an Other Trust with an inclusion ratio of zero. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no
portion of any Original Trust created for the benefit of DEBRA under Clause THIRD
may be paid to any Other Trust; and (ii) no portion of any Original Trust that would be
a "qualified subchapter S trust" (as defined in Section 1361(d)(3) of the Code) or an
11
EFTA00590358
posh ❑SI:Ini'96i61
"electing small business trust" (as defined in Section 1361(e)(1) of the Code) from and
forever after the time, if any, that such Original Trust first holds or is first entitled to
receive shares of stock of an S corporation (as defined in Section 136I(a) of the Code)
may be paid to an Other Trust unless such Other Trust also qualifies as a qualified
subchapter S trust or an electing small business trust. Such Other Trust (i) may include
a provision granting a power of appointment to a beneficiary of the Original Trust,
which power may be in favor of a broader or more limited class of permissible
appointees than any such power granted to such beneficiary under the Original Trust,
and (ii) may permit the payment of income and/or principal to beneficiaries who are not
members of the Initial Class but only after the death of the last survivor of the members
of the Initial Class.
(E)
The Trustees are directed to divide property in any trust
under this Armed -M(12ralion with an inclusion ratio, as defined in Section
2642(a)(1) of the Code of neither one nor zero into two separate trusts representing
two fractional shares of the property being divided, one to have an inclusion ratio of
one (the "nonexempt trust") and the other to have an inclusion ratio of zero (the
"exempt trust"). Any such separate trust shall have provisions identical to the trust so
divided.
(I)
Without in any way limiting the authority and
discretion granted to the Trustees by any other provision of this Agreement the
Graiiter-v.4shes-te-cenfir-m-thatneelaration, in exercising the discretionary powers
granted to the Trustees to pay principal to a beneficiary from each such separate trust,
12
EFTA00590359
Dodh 11S1:101)1641,2
that—the Trustees may pay principal to such beneficiary exclusively from one of such
separate trusts or in equal or unequal shares from both of such separate trusts, without
regard to any prior distributions that have been made by the Trustees from such trust,
even to the extent of terminating either or both of such separate trusts.
(2)
No share of principal of any trust with an inclusion
ratio (as defined in Section 2642(a)(1) of the Code) greater than zero which is directed
to be continued in trust at the death of a beneficiary shall be added to a trust with an
inclusion ratio of zero.
(F)
The Independent2004-64 Trustees (as defined in Clause
THIRTEENTH) shall have the power (but not the obligation), in their sole and absolute
discretion, to pay to the United States Treasury and any state or local taxing authority,
such amounts as the-GfaateFLEON or the Grantor's legal representatives of LEON
shall certify as being required to discharge the-Gfanter F.ON's tax liability (including
but not limited to Federal, state or otherwise) in respect of income realized by the trust
and not distributed to the-GranterrThe-Granter—eenlipras-that-HoLEON. No payment
under this paragraph shall exceed the difference between (i) the-GranterLsJ.F.ON's
Federal and state income tax liability and (ii) the-Grartter-14.F.ON's Federal and state
income tax liability computed as if the trust is not a grantor trust under Sections 671 et.
seq. of the Code. The Granter—further-eonfiFrastm that there is no
understanding or pre-existing arrangement, express or implied, between the
CrantorLFSIN and the Independent2
64 Trustees regarding the Independent209464
Trustees' exercise of discretion pursuant to this paragraph or Section 7-1.11 of the
EFTA00590360
Roth US1:10V16410
New York Estates, Powers and Trusts Law. The provisions of this paragraph are
intended to come within the safe harbor provisions of Revenue Ruling 2004-64.
Accordingly, the discretionary authority granted to the ledependent2ONAA1 Trustees
under this paragraph and under New York law should not cause the value of the trust
assets to be includible in the-GFanteF4Y,ON's gross estate. The-Granter-difeets-that
nen court shall have power under any statute to direct payment under this paragraph.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, the Independent/illItrE1
Trustees may at any time and from time to time release the power granted under this
paragraph. Such release may be for a limited period or under stated conditions or
indefinitely.
(G)
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement
the-Graiiter-diFeets-thatDeclaration:
(1)
No Trustee hereunder shall have any power or
discretion, or be deemed to be a Trustee, with respect to payments, applications or
allotments of income or principal to or for the use or benefit of any person whom such
Trustee, in his or her individual capacity, is legally obligated to support, if such
payment, application or allotment would constitute the discharge of any part of such
Trustee's legal support obligation.
(2)
Discretionary powers granted to the Trustees
hereunder with respect to payments, applications or allotments of the income and/or
principal of any trust hereunder ("the trust hereunder") to or for the use or benefit of
any beneficiary thereof shall be exercisable solely by the Trustees other than any Trustee

EFTA00590361
DotiCUSI:101,56411i
(i) who has a current beneficial interest in such trust, (ii) who has a beneficial interest in
the remainder of such trust hereunder that would cause the exercise of such power to
be treated as a gift by such Trustee for Federal gift tax purposes, (iii) whose disclaimer,
in his or her individual capacity, resulted in the funding, in whole or in part, of such
trust hereunder, or (iv) who is a permissible beneficiary of the income and/or principal
of any other trust, whether created under this AgFeefnentD_telaralion or otherwise
("such other trust"), if any Trustee of such other trust is a permissible beneficiary of the
trust hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time there is no Trustee
qualified and acting for the purpose of exercising such discretionary powers other than
a Trustee described in (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the preceding sentence, such powers shall
nonetheless be exercisable by all the Trustees (subject to any other provision of this
AgFeenieniPeelaratiou restricting the exercise of such powers), in their discretion, but
solely for the support and maintenance of such beneficiary in his or her accustomed
standard of living and for his or her health and education.
(3)
No person who may be serving at any time as a
Trustee shall have any right, power, control or incidents of ownership over any
insurance policy on such individual's life; if a trust acquires an interest in an insurance
policy on the life of a Trustee-beneficiary, the Independent Trustees shall exercise all
such rights, powers, control and incidents of ownership over such policy.
(H)
The-Graii4er-heretufreenfircas-thai-itlf any trust owns an

FIFTH:
POWERS OF APPOINTMENT
(A)
No testamentary power of appointment granted by the
provisions of this AgfeemeatIkdaration shall be deemed to have been exercised unless
the donee of the power specifically identifies the power in his or her Will dill%
admitted to probate and expressly exercises the power. In the absence of such
identification of the power and express exercise, the power of appointment shall not be
deemed to be exercised.
(B)
The donee of any power of appointment may appoint in
favor of one beneficiary exclusively, or in favor of two or more beneficiaries in equal or
unequal shares. In exercising the power, the donee may appoint outright or in trust and
may grant further powers to appoint, but no such further power of appointment may be
exercised to postpone the vesting of any interest or to suspend the power of alienation
for a period beyond that which is permitted by law as described in paragraph (M of
Clause SIXTH. Appointments in trust shall be administered by such Trustees or
Trustee as the donee may designate, subject to the management and investment powers
granted by this Agreementnerlaration or such other and different management and
investment powers that the donee may grant; and the donee may direct that an
appointed trust shall have a situs outside of New York and shall be governed by the
law of the appointed situs.
EFTA00590363
IISI:101/5641•1
(C)
Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in this
AgreementDeclaration: No donee of a power of appointment shall have the right to
direct the disposition of any trust property consisting of an insurance policy on the life
of the donee.
(D)
Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in this
AgfeementDtdaratiow the Independent Trustees are authorized and empowered to
expand the power of appointment granted under Clause SECOND as provided in this
paragraph. Such power of appointment, in the sole discretion of the Independent
Trustees, may be expanded so that such beneficiary may exercise a testamentary general
power of appointment (within the meaning of Section 2041 of the Code) over all or a
part of the trust to which the power relates (including a pecuniary sum). The scope of
any such expanded power of appointment may be as expansive or limited as the
Independent Trustees, in their sole and absolute discretion, may determine. Any power
thus expanded may be made exercisable by such beneficiary solely under his or her last
Will duly admitted to probate. If the Independent Trustees so expand any such power,
the Independent Trustees may revoke such expanded (general) power, may again
expand the power after a revocation, and in expanding any power, may make the
exercise of such expanded (general) power require the consent of the Independent
Trustees then in office. Without limiting the Independent Trustees' absolute discretion
hereunder, it is anticipated that the Independent Trustees' authority under this
paragraph will be used only if doing so will reduce GST taxes more than it increases
estate taxes, and otherwise does not create an adverse result for the beneficiary's estate.
17
EFTA00590364
pod: IIS1:10V5641O
If a power over a portion of any such trust is expanded, such trust shall be divided into
corresponding fractional shares constituting separate trusts of which one shall be subject
to the expanded (general) power and the other not. The Independent Trustees are
authorized to release irrevocably the right to expand a power of appointment or revoke
an expanded (general) power of appointment and consent to the exercise of an
expanded power by an acknowledged instrument in writing. Nothing herein shall be
construed as requiring the Independent Trustees to expand the power of appointment
granted to the beneficiary so he or she has a general power of appointment. In the
event that the Independent Trustees expand any such power of appointment so that
such beneficiary may exercise a general power of appointment, that power shall be
deemed to have been exercised only if such beneficiary specifically identifies the power
in his or her last Will duly admitted to probate and expressly exercises the power, and
in the absence of such identification of the power and express exercise, said power of
appointment (if any) shall be deemed to be unexercised. Nothing herein shall be
construed as granting the Independent Trustees the authority to revoke any special
(limited) power of appointment granted to the beneficiary of any trust hereunder.

holding such securities), to create escrows, to enter into custody agreements, and in any
case in which it becomes advisable for them to enter into any agreement containing
representations or undertakings which, but for qualifying terms of the agreement, would
render them personally liable therefor, at their option, to enter into and execute any
such agreement in their official capacities only and not individually, in which case, if the
terms of the applicable agreement so provide, the representations and undertakings shall
be binding upon the trust, but shall not be binding upon them personally.
TENTH:
ACCOUNTING
The Trustees may, at any time and from time to time, render an
accounting to the persons to whom trust income may be paid who have attained
twenty-one (21) years of age, and to the persons who have attained said age who
would be entitled to principal if the trust then ended and if no power of appointment is
exercised. Such accounting (but only if accompanied by notice of the provisions of this
Clause TENTH) shall be deemed a final accounting unless within ninety (90) days from
the service of such notice one or more of the persons to whom the accounting must be
presented under this Clause TENTH shall have mailed by registered mail to the
Trustees a written statement specifying objections to such accounting. If any person
22
EFTA00590386
Dolt USI:101)164Ivi
entitled to an accounting is a minor, the accounting may be rendered to such person's
guardian, other than the-GraifterLEON and any person who is a Trustee of the trust.
If the Trustees shall comply with the provisions of this Clause TENTH, such account
shall be binding and conclusive upon all persons who may be interested in the trust for
the period covered by the accounting, without the necessity of any proceedings in any
court which might have jurisdiction over such trust. Nothing may be done under this
provision which would enlarge or shift any beneficial interest.
ELEVENTH: TRUST ADDITIONS
The Trustees are empowered to receive additional property (whether real
or personal, tangible or intangible) which is transferred to the Trustees at any time or
bequeathed to the Trustees at any time by the-GranteFLEON or any other person,
subject to such terms and conditions as may be specified in any instrument or Will
under which such property is transferred or bequeathed or made payable to the
Trustees, provided however, that no such terms and conditions may unreasonably
increase the duties of the Trustees without their written consent. Unless otherwise
specified in any instrument or Will under which such property is transferred or
bequeathed or made payable to the Trustees, all such property shall be added to the
principal of the trust created under Clause FIRST. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
the-Gr-aister-is-iset-then-living-but-DEBRA is then living and such property consists of a
remainder interest in a grantor retained annuity trust that became payable after the
GRinterLsJ.FON's death, such remainder interest shall be disposed of as directed in
Clause THIRD.

during such minority for the minor's benefit, without giving bond. The provisions of
this Clause are intended to create a power during minority to manage property vested in
an infant and shall not impair the absolute vesting of principal in such minor. The
donees of this power may pay, apply and/or accumulate so much of the income of such
share and may pay or apply so much of the principal of such share, as the donees may
deem advisable from time to time for the minor. The donees of this power shall have

made without bond, without the intervention of a guardian of the minor and without
having to see to the application of the distribution, and the receipt of the person to
whom distribution is so made shall be a complete discharge of the donee of the power
in respect of such share. If the donees of the power determine to make distribution to
a custodian for the minor, the donees may select any eligible person or trust company
to serve as the custodian, including one or more of the donees. As used in this Clause,
the term "minor" shall refer to an individual who is under the age of twenty-one (21)
years, notwithstanding any statute or rule of law to the contrary.

fees and related expenses incurred in connection with the defense of such legal action
shall be paid by such trust without court authorization; provided, however, that (a) no
such payment shall (or shall continue to) be made if a court enters an order prohibiting
such payment, and (b) such Trustee shall refund to the trust any such payments that
previously had been made if a court enters an order directing that such payments be
refunded, or if a court concludes that such Trustee acted fraudulently in fact (as
distinguished from any imputed, constructive or assumed fraud) or in deliberate, willful
and intentional disregard of the interests of the beneficiaries.
(B)

interests of the beneficiaries. The individuals who are serving as Trustees and each
individual who is a former Trustee shall be entitled to be indemnified out of the trust
assets against all expenses, liabilities, damages or losses, including (but not limited to)
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, claims, costs, judgments or any other type
of loss or expenditure which they may incur as a result of their qualification as Trustee,
and for serving as director or officer of any company, partnership or other entity whose
shares or other equity interests are held, directly or indirectly, by the trust created
hereunder, notwithstanding that such expenses, liabilities, damages or losses may result
from a breach of duty by any Trustee, unless such expense, liability, damage or loss was
brought about by the conduct of such Trustee and such Trustee acted fraudulently in
fact (as distinguished from any imputed, constructive or assumed fraud) or in deliberate,
willful and intentional disregard of the interests of the beneficiaries.
