Exhibit 3


WILLIAM F. WHITMAN, JR. AND BARBARA K. WHITMAN
CHARITABLE REMAINDER TRUST AGREEMENT

        THIS TRUST AGREEMENT, made and entered into this 3rd day of August 2004, by and between WILLIAM F. WHITMAN, JR. and BARBARA K. WHITMAN (hereinafter referred to as the "Grantor"), and WILLIAM F. WHITMAN, JR. and BARBARA K. WHITMAN (hereinafter referred to as the "Trustee").

        WHEREAS, the Grantor wishes to make an irrevocable gift for the benefit of certain charities provided they are qualified pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code Sections 170, 2055 and 2522; and

        WHEREAS, the Grantor wishes to provide for the health, support, and maintenance of themselves during their lifetime.

        NOW THEREFORE, it is agreed by and between the Grantor and the Trustee that any assets contributed to this trust shall be held and disposed of in accordance with the following terms and provisions:


ARTICLE I

        This Trust Agreement and the trust hereby evidenced shall be known as the WILLIAM F. WHITMAN, JR. AND BARBARA K. WHITMAN CHARITABLE REMAINDER TRUST. The Grantor, as a completed and irrevocable gift does hereby assign, transfer, convey, set over and deliver to said Trustee, the property listed and described on Schedule A attached hereto, and any property into which the same may hereafter be converted, and any additions made to this trust as hereinafter provided. All of said property shall be managed and invested by the Trustee as a single fund and shall constitute the trust estate hereinafter referred to as the "Trust Estate" which shall be held by the Trustee, its successors and assigns, IN TRUST, for the uses and purposes, with the powers and duties, and subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.


ARTICLE II

        A.    Subject to adjustment as provided herein, and as provided in Article V when there are additional contributions to the Trust Estate during the taxable year, the Trustee shall pay from the Trust Estate in each taxable year of the trust to or for the benefit of the Grantors until the death of the second Grantor to die, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Trust income for the taxable year, as defined in Section 643(b) of the Internal Revenue Code and as modified herein and (ii) SIX PERCENT (6%) of the net fair market value of the assets of the Trust valued annually on the first business day of January of each year (the Valuation Date). Such amount shall be referred to as the Unitrust Amount. The Unitrust Amount shall also include any amount of Trust income as defined in Section 643(b) of the Internal Revenue Code and as modified herein for such year that is in excess of the amount required to be distributed pursuant to (ii) above to the extent that the aggregate of the Unitrust Amount paid in prior years was less than the aggregate of the Unitrust Amounts computed as an amount equal to SIX PERCENT (6%) of the net fair market value of the trust assets on the Valuation Date during the same period. For purposes of the Trust, the term "income" shall include all capital gain realized after the asset had been contributed to the Trust as provided in the Regulations.

        B.    In determining the Unitrust Amount, the Trustee shall prorate the same, on a daily basis, for all short taxable years of the trust including the year in which occurs the later of the Grantors' death; all such computations shall be made in compliance with the requirements of Regulation Section 1.664-3(a), promulgated under Section 664 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (hereinafter referred to as the "Code"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, payment of the Unitrust Amount shall terminate with the regular quarterly payment next preceding the death of the survivor of the Grantors. If the annual Valuation Date selected does not occur in a taxable year of the trust, other



than the year in which the noncharitable interests terminate, the Trust Estate shall be valued as of the last day of such taxable year. In the case of the taxable year in which the noncharitable interest terminates, if the selected Valuation Date does not occur before the day the noncharitable interest terminates, the Trust Estate shall be valued as of the day the noncharitable interest terminates.

        C.    The Unitrust Amount shall be paid in quarterly installments, on the last day of each quarter of the taxable year of the trust. The first such payment is to be made on the last day of the third month following the month in which this trust is created; provided, however, that if, on the last day of any quarter the exact amount of the Unitrust Amount is not determined, the Trustee shall pay, on such date, so much as the Trustee reasonably determines is the minimum amount due. The Trustee shall pay the balance of the amount due, if any, as promptly as possible, and in any event within a reasonable period after the final determination of the exact amount due. In case the net fair market value of the Trust Estate shall be incorrectly determined for any taxable year, then within a reasonable period after the final determination of the correct value thereof, the Trustee shall pay the Grantors in the case of the undervaluation, or be repaid by the Grantors, in the case of an overvaluation, an amount equal to the difference between the Unitrust Amount properly payable and the Unitrust Amount which the trust actually paid.

        D.    All determinations of the net fair market value of the Trust Estate shall be in accordance with generally accepted fiduciary accounting principles and any regulations, rulings, procedures or guidelines issued by the United States Treasury Department under the applicable provisions of the Code and the regulations promulgates thereunder. In any conflict, such Treasury Department requirements shall prevail over generally accepted fiduciary accounting principals, and any inconsistent provisions of this Trust Agreement.


ARTICLE III

        The first taxable year of the trust shall begin with the date of this Trust Agreement, and shall end on the last day of 2004. Thereafter the taxable year of the trust shall commence January 1st and end December 31st each year.


ARTICLE IV

        A.    Subject to the requirements of Article II hereof, upon the death of the survivor of the Grantors, the trust shall terminate, and the then remaining principal of the Trust Estate, together with all accumulated and undistributed net income therefrom, shall be distributed to W.F. WHITMAN FAMILY FOUNDATION, INC., a Florida not-for-profit corporation. Such amount to be held and used in furtherance of that organization's charitable purpose.

        Notwithstanding the provisions of Article X hereof, Grantors retain the right to amend this trust so as to change, add or delete the charitable remainder beneficiary, provided the charity is an exempt organization described in Code Sections 170(c), 2522 and 2055. The charity receiving a distribution hereunder shall use the distribution for its charitable purposes as its governing body shall determine.

        B.    Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, upon termination of the trust, no distribution is permitted to a charitable remainder beneficiary that is not then an exempt organization, including a private foundation, described in Code Sections 2522(a) and 2055(a), transfers to which would be deductible for Federal income, gift and estate taxes. All shares established for a beneficiary which is not so qualified, together with all accumulated and undistributed net income therefrom, shall only be distributed to an exempt organization or organizations qualified pursuant to Code Sections 170(c), 2522(a) and 2055(a), as the Trustee shall select which are as nearly as possible designed to carry out the general charitable intent of the non-qualifying beneficiary at the time the Grantors named the charity a beneficiary of this trust. Grantors do hereby specifically retain the powers to designate a

2



private foundation, as defined in Section 501(a) of the Code, as a beneficiary of the assets of this Trust. The Grantors further acknowledge the retention of the power to designate a private foundation as a remainder beneficiary impacts the amount of the charitable deduction Grantors are entitled to receive upon contribution of property to this Trust.


ARTICLE V

        The Grantor may cause additional property to be added to the Trust Estate, from time to time, by gift. If any additional contributions are made to the trust after the initial contribution hereto, the Unitrust Amount for the taxable year in which assets are added to the trust shall be the lesser of the actual income earned by the assets attributed during the balance of the taxable year of the trust in which the contribution was made or the same percentage amount as stated in Article II, hereof, of the sum of: (a) the net fair market value of the trust assets (excluding the assets so added and any income from, or appreciation on, such assets); and (b) that proportion of the value of the assets so added (that was excluded under (a)) which the number of days in the period which begins with the date of contribution and ends with the earlier of the last day of the taxable year or the death of the survivor of the Grantor bears to the number of days in the period which begins on the first day of such taxable year and ends with the earlier of (i) the last day of such taxable year or (ii) the death of the survivor of the Grantors. In the case where there is a contribution after the time of initial contribution, the assets so added shall be valued at the time of contribution. All such computations shall be in compliance with the requirements of Regulation Section 1.664-3(b).


ARTICLE VI

        It is the Grantors' intention that the maximum possible Federal income, gift, and estate tax charitable deductions (consistent with the amount of the payments required under Article II hereof and consistent with the fact that a private foundation is a permitted remainder beneficiary) shall be allowed with respect to the charitable remainder interest in all property of the trust, and that the trust be exempt from taxation under Section 664 of the Code. This entire Trust Agreement shall be construed, and its provisions applied, so as to comply with the requirements of Federal tax law for the maximum possible allowance of such charitable deductions and exemption. Any provision of this Trust Agreement which would cause the denial of such deductions or exemption, or any of them, shall be void. In addition, the powers of the Trustee shall be limited to the full extent required to secure such deductions and exemption. All terms used in this Trust Agreement shall have the same meaning as such terms have in Section 664 of the Code.


ARTICLE VII

        Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement, the Trustee shall distribute the income of the trust for each taxable year at such time, and in such manner, as to not subject the trust to the tax on undistributed income imposed by Section 4942 of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement, except for required payments to beneficiaries hereunder, the Trustee shall not engage in any act of self-dealing, as defined in Section 4941(d) of the Code, nor make any taxable expenditures, as defined in Section 4945(d) of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement, the Trustee shall not make any investments that jeopardize the charitable purpose of the trust, within the meaning of Section 4944 and the regulations thereunder, or retain any excess business holdings, within the meaning of Section 4943(c).

6

            C.    The Trustee is authorized and empowered to construe the provisions of this Trust Agreement, and any construction thereof and any action taken by the Trustee in good faith shall be final and conclusive.

ARTICLE IX

        Neither the principal nor the income of the Trust Estate created hereby shall be liable for the debts of any beneficiary hereof, nor shall the same be subject to seizure by any creditor of any beneficiary under any writ or proceeding at law or in equity, and no individual beneficiary shall have any power to sell, assign, transfer, encumber or in any other manner to anticipate or dispose of his or her interest in the Trust Estate or the income produced thereby; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent any individual beneficiary hereof from renouncing and disclaiming his or her interest in the Trust Estate or from donating such interest to the charitable remainder beneficiaries hereof, if such organization is then an exempt organization described in Section 2522(a) and Section 2055(a) of the Code, gifts to which would be deductible for Federal income, gift and estate tax purposes.


ARTICLE X

        No Federal estate taxes, state death taxes or any other estate, death or inheritance taxes (hereinafter called "Death Taxes") with respect to this Trust shall be allocated to or be recoverable from the Unitrust Estate upon the death of any beneficiary. The Grantors impose an obligation on the estate of each income beneficiary to pay any Death Taxes from sources other than the Trust assets and agrees to so provide in his or her Will or in another way. This provision may be enforced by the Trustee or by any Remainderman, acting alone or together. Nevertheless, if for any reason the Unitrust becomes liable for Death Taxes on the death of any income beneficiary, the interest of the surviving income beneficiary or beneficiaries will continue only if each surviving income beneficiary furnishes funds for payment of any Death Taxes for which this Trust may be liable. If a surviving income beneficiary fails to furnish such funds, it shall be deemed for all remaining purposes of this Trust Agreement that that surviving income beneficiary predeceased the first income beneficiary to die.


ARTICLE XI

        The trust created hereby is expressly declared to be IRREVOCABLE. The Grantors shall have no right or power, whether alone or in conjunction with others, and regardless of when or from what source the Grantors may heretofore or hereafter have acquired such right or power, to alter, amend, revoke or terminate the trust created hereby, or to alter, amend or change the terms, conditions or provisions of this Trust Agreement, in whole or in part. By this Trust Agreement, the Grantors hereby

7



renounces all right and power, whether alone or in conjunction with others, to designate the person who shall possess or enjoy the trust property, or the income therefrom except the power retained in Article IV to change, add and delete the charitable remainder beneficiary.


ARTICLE XII

        No person, including each Grantor, shall have any power to enable any person, including the Grantors, to purchase, exchange or otherwise deal with or dispose of any principal or income of the trust for less than full and adequate consideration in money or money's worth, except for required payments or distributions to beneficiaries hereof pursuant to the provisions of this Trust Agreement. The Grantors shall not borrow any principal or income of the trust, directly or indirectly. No person, other than a then acting Trustee, shall have or exercise the power to vote or direct the voting of any stock or other securities of the trust, to control the investments (either by directing investments or reinvestments or by vetoing proposed investments or reinvestment) or to require or exchange any property of the trust by substituting other property of an equivalent value. The limitations and restrictions contained herein shall apply as additional limitations and restrictions to those contained in Article VI and VII hereof, and shall apply notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement.


ARTICLE XIII

After the resignation, death or inability to manage the affairs of one initial trustee, the other shall serve as sole trustee. In the event both WILLIAM F. WHITMAN, JR. and BARBARA K. WHITMAN are unable or unwilling to serve as Trustee, then Grantors' children, LAURA BOWNE WHITMAN and WILLIAM FIFIELD WHITMAN, III, shall serve as Co-Trustees. In the event either of Grantors' children is unable or unwilling to serve as Trustee, then the other shall serve as sole Trustee. Any Trustee may resign as Trustee at any time by written notice to the successor trustee.

        B.    The individual Trustee or Co-Trustee named above shall at all times have the power to designate a corporate Trustee with trust powers and assets under management of at least One Billion Dollars to commence serving as Co-Trustee with the individual Trustee or Co-Trustees, as the case may be. If a corporate Trustee is serving as Co-Trustee, the individual Trustee or Co-Trustees, as the case may be, shall have the power to remove the corporate Co-Trustee and either appoint a successor corporate Trustee or continue to serve without a corporate Co-Trustee. A corporate Co-Trustee, upon acceptance of its duties and responsibilities, agrees that if it is removed as a Trustee, it shall not charge a termination or distribution fee. The appointment, removal or replacement of a corporate Co-Trustee hereunder shall be in writing signed by all the individuals serving as Trustee hereunder at the time of such appointment, removal or replacement and delivered to the Trustee.

        C.    Each successor trustee shall accept the office in writing and shall be vested with the powers and duties of the original trustee immediately upon delivery of the written acceptance to one or more of the beneficiaries of the trust, without the necessity of any other act, conveyance or transfer.

        D.    During Grantors' lives, any trustee serving under this trust may resign as trustee by delivering to Grantor a written resignation signed by the resigning trustee. After Grantors' deaths, the written resignation shall be delivered to each beneficiary then entitled to receive the assets of the Trust. In case of the resignation, refusal or inability to act of the last named Trustee acting or appointed to act hereunder, Grantor, if living, otherwise the designated charitable remainder beneficiary shall appoint another successor trustee.

        E.    Grantors waive compliance with any law requiring qualification of trustees or registration of trusts, or administration or accounting by trustees under the supervision of any court. Instead, after a

8



Grantor's resignation as trustee, death or inability to manage Grantor's own affairs, Trustee shall furnish the annual valuation of the Trust to each trust beneficiary who is entitled to receive the Unitrust Amount or has a remainder interest hereunder. Said valuation shall be delivered within ninety (90) days of the valuation date.

        F.     No purchaser or other person dealing with any trustee or trustees purporting to act under any power or authority granted in, or given by any trustee in purported compliance with, this item or any part or parts of it, need be concerned to inquire into the existence of facts upon which the purported power or authority depends or into the question whether the purported power or authority still exists.

        G.    Trustee shall not be liable for damage or loss caused by honest errors of judgment made by Trustee or Trustee's agents or employees, or by any good faith exercise of the discretion given to Trustee.

        H.    No bond or surety shall be required of any trustee serving under this trust.

        I.     A trustee shall be reimbursed for all reasonable expenses incurred in the management and protection of the trust. A corporate trustee shall be entitled to be compensated based upon its standard published fee schedule at the time the services are rendered. An individual trustee may receive reasonable compensation for services actually performed.


ARTICLE XIV

        The situs of this Trust Agreement is Florida and this Trust Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the law of the State of Florida. However, Trustee is prohibited from exercising any power or discretion granted under said laws that would be inconsistent with the qualification of the Trust under the Internal Revenue Code and the corresponding regulations and would prevent the trust from qualifying as a Charitable Remainder Trust.


ARTICLE XV

        All references in this Trust Agreement to provisions of the Code or the Regulations shall be deemed to be to the present provision of the Internal Revenue Code and the Regulations promulgated by the United States Treasury Department thereunder and to any corresponding applicable provision of any subsequent Federal Internal Revenue Law or Treasury Department regulation.


ARTICLE XVI

        If any assets owned by the Trust on the valuation date do not have a easily ascertainable fair market value and the Grantors are serving as Trustee, the value of such asset shall be determined by a qualified appraisal as defined in Section 1.170A-13(c)(3) from a qualified appraiser as defined in Section 1.170A-13(c)(5) of the Regulations. An asset does not have an easily ascertainable fair market value unless its value is established in a market, on a stock exchange or in the over the counter market and is generally available in a listing or publication of general valuation.


ARTICLE XVII

        A.    Anyone may rely upon a copy of this Agreement and of any other document required by this Agreement to be in writing, which is certified by any Trustee hereunder to be a full and complete copy of this Agreement or of such agreement to the same effect as if such copy or copies were the original or originals, as the case may be. Anyone may rely upon any statements of fact certified by any Trustee hereunder.

9



        B.    No person or corporation dealing with Trustee in any transaction affecting the Trust Estate or any trust shall be required to inquire or investigate into the Trustee's authority for entering into such transaction or to see to the application made by the Trustee of the proceeds of any such transaction.

        C.    Wherever in this Agreement, the context and facts permit, the masculine, feminine and neuter pronouns and the word "trustee", whether singular or plural, shall include singular and plural and all genders and future fiduciaries as well as those named in this Agreement.

        D.    The application by the Trustee of the definitions set forth above shall be conclusive upon all persons if made in good faith.

        IN WITNESS WHEREOF, The Grantors have declared this instrument to be the WILLIAM F. WHITMAN, JR. and BARBARA K. WHITMAN CHARITABLE REMAINDER TRUST AGREEMENT, and the Grantors have signed it at                                                  , on August 3rd, 2004.
