Sometime thereafter, said Defendant then provided Plaintiff with a copy of the Purchase Agreement but now signed by Defendant Lake Manawa-Carlisle, L.P., a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "D". 8. On January 18, 1996, Defendant Lake Manawa-Carlisle, L.P. also issued a Promissory Note in the amount of $100,000 payable to plaintiff by February 17, 1996, a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "E". 9. On or about February 16, 1996, Defendant Dial Companies a/k/a Dial propet"ties, Co., eltecuted an "Assignment and Assumption of Purchase Contract" with Defendant Dial Development Partners, L.L,C., a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit "F". - 2 - ppt/ldv/comp.dlll/~tob.t'I', I'" 10. On March 20, 1996, Defendant Dial Companies, a/k/a Dial Properties, Co. discontinued work on plans, reports, studies, etc., for land development plan reviews by South Middleton Township and the Borough of Carlisle concerning the land subject to the Purchase Agreement, 11. Defendants' discontinuance of its engineering work was contrary to its obligations under the Purchase Agreement and its duty to perform same in good faith. 12. Defendants thereupon refused to remit any payment to Plaintiff pursuant to the aforesaid Purchase Agreement or the Promissory Note, notwithstanding Plaintiff's demands therefor. 13. At all times material hereto, Plaintiff stood ready and willing to perform under the Purchase Agreement. 14. Accordingly, Defendants' continuing failure and refusal to remit payment to Plaintiff under the Purchase Agreement and the Promissory Note is unjustified and contl-ary to the terms thereof, 15. The aforesaid Purchase Agreement also permits Plaintiff to be awarded attorney fees under the circumstances. 16. In addition, Plaintiff believes and therefore avers that Defendants l,ake Manllwa-Carlisle, L,P, and Dial Development Partners, L. L.
