ARTICLE IV
CONSTRUCTION

the term “descendant” shall be interchangeable with the term “issue” and shall mean a descendant
in the first, second or any other degree of the designated ancestor; (b) the term “child” shall mean
a descendant in the first degree of the designated parent; and (c) the term “grandchild” shall mean
a descendant in the second degree of the designated grandparent. The terms “child,” “children,”

membership in the class is based on adoption or on birth out of wedlock provided the person, while
a minor, lived as a regular member of the household of the adopting parent (either before or after
the adoption) or of the relevant natural parent (i.e., the one through whom class membership is
claimed), as the case may be, or of that parent’s parent, sibling or surviving spouse. Whether a
person was a “regular member” of another’s household shall be determined in the reasonable
discretion of the Executor. The adoption by another (whether within or outside the family) of one
who is a class member, either under the above definition or legitimately by birth, shall be
disregarded for all purposes of this Will.

representation,” or if the manner of distribution to issue or descendants is not specified, the
property is to be divided and distributed in equal shares as follows: one equal share shall go to
each living member of the nearest generation of descendants living at the time of distribution; and
one equal share shall be divided by right of representation, in like manner, among the then living
descendants of each member of that same generation who is then deceased leaving such
descendants.
4.3 DISINHERITANCE. I intentionally and with full knowledge of the consequences, have made
no provision in my Will nor the Trust for any of my heirs at law, except as may otherwise be
Page “7 a
Patricia R. Allen
2020.02.13 Last Will of Patricia R. Allenspecifically provided in my Will or Trust. I intend that this disinheritance specifically defeat the
application of any statutory heirship interest.
44 NocConrest. The right of any beneficiary to take any interest given to the beneficiary
under my Will, shall be determined as if the beneficiary had predeceased me without surviving
issue if the beneficiary, alone or in conjunction with any other person, engages in any of the
following actions without probable cause:
* Challenges the validity of any of my Protected Instruments, as defined in this Section, on
any of the following grounds: forgery; lack of due execution; lack of capacity; menace,
duress, fraud or undue influence; revocation of a Will pursuant to California Probate Code
Section 6120, revocation of a trust pursuant to California Probate Code Section 15401, or
revocation of an instrument other than a Will or trust pursuant to the procedure for
revocation that is provided by statute or by the instrument; or disqualification of a
beneficiary pursuant to California Probate Code Section 6112 or California Probate Code
Section 21380;
¢ Files a creditor’s claim or prosecutes any action against any of my Protected Instruments
for any debt alleged to be owed by me; or
e Files a pleading to challenge a transfer of property under any of my Protected Instruments
on the grounds that it was not the transferor’s property at the time of the transfer.
The no contest clause outlined herein shall not apply to a responsive pleading by a personal
representative that seeks to defend the Will from attack.
A “Protected Instrument” is my Trust, my Will and any other trust created pursuant to the terms
of my Trust or my Will, any beneficiary designation of an annuity, retirement plan, IRA, Keogh,
pension or profit sharing or insurance policy that is signed by me and that was in existence on the
day I executed my Trust or Will.
Probable cause exists, if at any time of filing a contest, the facts known to the contestant would
cause a reasonable person to believe that there is a reasonable likelihood that the requested relief
will be granted after an opportunity for further investigation and discovery.
4.5 INTERNAL REVENUE Cope. As used herein, the term “Internal Revenue Code” means the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as last amended, and reference to an Internal Revenue Code
Section shall include successor Sections.
4.6 | AFTER-BORN CHILD. I have provided by my Will and otherwise for all of my children,
whether born to or adopted by me before or after the time of execution hereof to the extent I desire,
and no child born to or adopted by me before or after the time of execution hereof shall be entitled
to receive from my estate property greater in value than I have specifically provided.
Subject to the conditions set forth in California Probate Code Section 249.5, a child of mine that
is conceived using my genetic material within two (2) years of the date of death and is born
thereafter, shall be deemed to have been born during my lifetime and after the execution of this
Will.

If for any reason the Trust described in Section 2.1 hereof shall not be in existence at the time of my death, or if for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction shall declare this testamentary transfer to the Trustee of the Trust to be invalid, then I give and devise my residuary estate in trust to the then acting Trustee or Co-Trustee (or last acting Trustee or Co-Trustee of the Trust, before the Trust terminated), to be held, managed, invested and reinvested in exactly the same manner described in the Trust, giving, if the court shall allow, effect to all then existing amendments of the Trust; thus, for those purposes I do hereby incorporate that same instrument of Trust, by reference, into this, my Will. If the court shall not allow the Trust to be incorporated into this Will with its amendments, it shall be incorporated in its original form as executed on this date, without regard to such amendments, if any such amendments have been made.

I intentionally and with full knowledge of the consequences, have made no provision in my Will nor the Trust for any of my heirs at law, except as may otherwise be Page “7 a Patricia R.

I intend that this disinheritance specifically defeat the application of any statutory heirship interest. 44 NocConrest. The right of any beneficiary to take any interest given to the beneficiary under my Will, shall be determined as if the beneficiary had predeceased me without surviving issue if the beneficiary, alone or in conjunction with any other person, engages in any of the following actions without probable cause: * Challenges the validity of any of my Protected Instruments, as defined in this Section, on any of the following grounds: forgery; lack of due execution; lack of capacity; menace, duress, fraud or undue influence; revocation of a Will pursuant to California Probate Code Section 6120, revocation of a trust pursuant to California Probate Code Section 15401, or revocation of an instrument other than a Will or trust pursuant to the procedure for revocation that is provided by statute or by the instrument; or disqualification of a beneficiary pursuant to California Probate Code Section 6112 or California Probate Code Section 21380; ¢ Files a creditor’s claim or prosecutes any action against any of my Protected Instruments for any debt alleged to be owed by me; or e Files a pleading to challenge a transfer of property under any of my Protected Instruments on the grounds that it was not the transferor’s property at the time of the transfer.
