along with their personal property pursuant to paragraph 4.4 of this trust, be used
by the Trustees to establish a park. That park should, if possible, be owned and
administered by a governmental entity. In any event, the park shall be operated in
accordance with the Conservation Easement previously executed by the Grantors on
July 31, 1989.
2. Additions to Trust.
The Grantors or any other person may transfer, by Will or otherwise, additional

Agreement, and may designate the trust , to which the property shall be added.
3. Distributions from the Trust Estate During the Life of a Grantor.
3.1 While either Grantor lives, the Trustees shall administer the trust
estate, and shall make distributions to or for the benefit of Grantors or either of
them, in such manner as in the discretion of Trustees shall provide for the health,
welfare, maintenance and support of Grantors, or either of them.

no discretion to make any distribution or use of trust property which would

3.3 During the life of a Grantor, the Trustees may make distributions of
the property of the trust which would .-accomplish the transfers allowed in Part 4 of
this trust, provided that the Trustees have reasonable assurances that the remainder

them, during the remainder of their lives..

remaining Trustee cannot so satisfy himself, the Trustee will, after a reasonable
time, attempt to find another entity which will use the property as a public park or

Trustees of any trust created herein shall have the power, and the exercise of ,
discretion in the application thereof, to:

relating to underproductive property; depreciation; and trade, business and farming
operations. ;
5.2 Rely with acquittance on advice of counsel on questions of law.
5.3 Acquire and retain every kind of property, without regard to the
income earned from such property, to accomplish the Grantors' purpose of preserv-
ing the trust real property as that goal is expressed in the Nesset Conservation
Easement, executed by Grantors on July 31, 1989.
5.4 � At any time to resign as Trustee of any and all trusts created by this
instrument, without court proceedings, by delivering a written notice of resignation

5.5 Make distributions in cash or in kind in shares which may be

specific property allocated to any beneficiary.
5.6 Exercise any necessary or desirable powers not otherwise granted in
this instrument or given by law that the Trustees determine, in the Trustees' discre-
tion, are consistent with the intentions of the Grantors.
5.7 - Trustees shall not have any obligation to render any accounting to

liable for any act performed in the administration of this trust, provided that such
act is performed in good faith and in the reasonable pursuance of the purpose of
this trust.
6. Protection of Estates.
6.1 Each Grantor directs that the Trustees cooperate with their personal
representative in the payment of expenses of last illness and funeral, estate settle-
ment costs (including costs of ancillary administration), debts and death taxes, to
the end that such expenses, costs, debts and taxes are suitably borne by both the
trust estate and the probate estate or, if the values and assets so suggest, all from
V11EIN SSCrtt Page 3
53
one estate and none from the other. The decisions of the fiduciary shall bind all
beneficiaries. If the trust estate is to contribute to such costs, expenses, debts and
taxes, the Trustees may pay such, or -the necessary balance thereof, from principal
of the trust.
6.2 The Trustees may make such payment directly, or through the personal
representative of the Grantor's estate, or otherwise as the Trustees deem advisable,
without seeking reimbursement for any payments so made. The Trustees need not
determine the accuracy of amounts certified to it by the personal representative, but
may rely on such certification. Nor shall the Trustees have any duty to see to the
application of such amounts paid to the personal representative. No compensatory
adjustment shall be made for administration expense allowed as federal income
rather than estate tax deduction.
6.3 If a Grantor has no probate estate, the Trustees are authorized to
apply for or demand, and to receive, hold, administer and distribute as provided
herein, any debt, claim, refund or rebate, premium, dividend, or other thing of
value belonging to or accruing to the Grantor or the Grantor's estate.

7.1 If a Trustee should not desire to serve as Trustee, and evidences that
intention by resigning as Trustee by delivering a writing to the other Trustee, the
other Trustee shall continue to serve as sole Trustee.
7.2 If a Trustee becomes medically incapable of performing the duties of
Trustee, as evidenced either by a certificate of death or by a report of a physician
giving an opinion that the Trustee is incapable of managing his. personal and
financial affairs, delivered to the other Trustee, then the other Trustee shall
continue to serve as sole Trustee.
7.3 If both Trustees either resign or become medically incapable of serving
as Trustee, then Daryl Hoyt shall serve as Successor Trustee. In the event that he
is unwilling or unable to serve as Successor Trustee, then Lucinda Pfeiffer -Hoyt
shall serve as Successor Trustee. In the event that she is unwilling or unable to
serve as Successor Trustee, then the Successor Trustee shall be that individual or
corporate trustee appointed in writing by the last qualified acting Trustee.

tion (the "Trust ").
11. FACTS AND OBJECTIVES
Grantors are owners of real property in Whatconi County which is legally described
by attached Exhibit A.
The Trust is a publicly supported, nonprofit corporation, organized to preserve the
ecological, wildlife, scenic, agricultural, recreational, and open space value of .land.
It qualifies under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code as a tax- exempt
nonprofit' organization.
The Nesset Property is a beautiful, secluded, 106 acres located on the upper
reaches of the South Fork of the Nooksack River. The portion of the Property
nearest the river is cleared and has historically been used as a farm. ' Beyond this
is a ridge containing approximately 40 acres of mature coniferous forest. In
addition to the river frontage, the Property contains a salmon spawning stream..
Deer, eagles and other wildlife frequent the Nesset Property, with eagles gathering._
in large numbers during the fall salmon spawn. The 'Nessets live in the original` -
homestead residence which was constructed from large, dovetailed cedar timbers.
The old barn and outbuildings contain numerous pieces of antique farming and..
logging equipment. Tom and Ingeborg Nesset have resided here since childhood,
engaging 'in farming and selective logging, The Property is of substantial ecological,
aesthetic and recreational value to the people of Whatcom County. It is the intent
of the Grantors and the Trust, through this Conservation Easement, to preserve the
natural scenic beauty of the Nesset Property, to . protect it as a relatively natural
habitat for wildlife and plants, to conserve the significant aesthetic and ecological
values and characteristics of the Property for public benefit, to protect the integrity
of the land, and to preserve the possibility of the land being used in the future as
a . public park.
III. GRANT Or CONSERVATION EASEMENT
Grantors hereby convey to the Trust, its successors and assigns, in perpetuity, a
Conservation Easement pursuant to Revised Code of Washington 84.34.210 over the

principles.

the Property. In the event of destruction or deterioration, structures and
other improvements existing at the time of this Conservation Easement may

IMMRSSFASM n ^ ^" 1
(b) Logging of coniferous species shall be severely limited and can only be
carried out if done in strict adherence to a forest management plan
submitted to and approved by the Trust. Such plan must demonstrate
that the logging is carried out in an. ecologically sound manner, that it
results in negligible destruction of habitat and the integrity of forest
floor, that there will not be a significant deterioration of the value of
the Property as an example of mature coniferous forest, and that the
logging will not result in aesthetic and environmental damage. The
plan should consider each forest and soil type and should set a policy
for. dealing with diseased, dead and downed trees and for replanting.

possible an old growth forest. Discretion to reject any logging plan
and to deny consent for any and all logging of conifers is completely
