On August 30, 2000, economic claims were 1 0-'-' } ". ." ~~ filed by wife for equitable distribution, alimony, alimony pendente lite and counsel fees and expenses. The Master has been advised that after negotiations this morning the parties have reached an agreement with respect to the outstanding economic issues. Therefore, no hearing will be necessary on the factor of marital misconduct. An agreement is going to be placed on the record in the presence of the parties. The agreement as placed on the record will be considered the substantive agreement of the parties not subject to any changes or modifications except for correction of typographical errors which may be made during the transcription.

In any event, the parties are bound by the terms of the agreement when they leave the hearing room today even though there is no subsequent signing of the agreement affirming the settlement terms. Upon receipt by the Master of a completed agreement, the Master will prepare an order vacating his appointment and counsel will then be in a position to file a praecipe transmitting the record to the Court requesting a 2 ~~ , ' . final decree in divorce. Mr. Williams. MR. WILLIAMS: The parties have agreed in full settlement of all economic claims that were made or could have been made in this divorce case to be resolved as follows: 1.

All other claims which have been or could have been made in this case of an economic nature are deemed withdrawn. 3. Wife is currently in the possession of a handgun that is currently registered in the name of husband. Wife shall receive that handgun as part of this settlement; however, wife shall promptly re-register the gun in her name alone and husband shall cooperate in that re-registration if such cooperation is necessary. Wife is also in the possession of a .25 automatic handgun that is to become property of the husband as part of this divorce resolution and wife shall make that handgun available for pick up by husband at a mutually convenient time. 4.

As a result of which she quit drinking and smoking; however, Husband continued same. Husband abandoned her during these health problems and she recovered with the assistance of family and friends. Wife tried to maintain the marriage by going to the bars with Husband and being the designated driver, but this proved impossible. Wife suffered depression and considered suicide. Wife continues to be treated at Helen Stevens. Husband took up with another woman, Connie Jordan (with whom he is now living), and finally left April 2, 2000. At that time, Wife was employed at Reeves-Hoffman as an assembler, but withing a few months took a similar job at Corning Frequency to avoid a layoff, but was laid off anyway on June 6, 2001, with no severance. She received unemployment benefits until December 2001 when they expired. She worked at Kmart over Christmas, but was left go after Christmas with the rest of the seasonal employees. .She then worked for Rite Aid for about a year, but lost that job also and received unemployment for a short time.

She has arthritis in her ~,-~" ~..... "t'lil knees and shoulders, and has been told a total knee replacement will be necessary at some point. Wife was hospitalized in 1996-7 when she underwent two surgeries on her knee; internal bracing was inserted and screwed in place when both tendons ruptured. There are no tendons holding her left knee together, instead rods that pivot at the knee are inserted in her leg bones. The recovery from this was six months during which Wife's knee was immobilized. Husband provided little assistance to her during this recovery period. For example, he did not make any food for her, nor help her in getting around to do daily activities. Wife even had to let the dog out. Fortunately she had family to occasionally help. 2. Bobbi Lytle This is Wife's daughter who will testif'y about having to take care of her mother during recovery from knee surgery when Husband did not do so. She will also be able to describe the limitation on her mother caused by her numerous ailments. 3. Peggy Hancock. Saw Husband in Midway Bar with Connie Jordan prior to separation. 4. Wife reserves the right to call other witnesses, if determined to be necessary upon fair notice, primarily to establish Husband's infidelity and essential abandonment during Wife's illnesses. III.

Wife's 40 I (k) statement from McCoy. During the marriage Wife cashed in a 40 I (k) plan in amount of approximately $3,000.00 and was used for moving expenses to Baltimore when Husband's job was relocated there. IV. GROSS INCOME: Wife's income is stated in Section III above. Income tax returns, pay stubs and Social Security statements will be provided, V. EXPENSES: Other than her medications, Wife has no unusual expenses. She does pay lot rent of $365.00/month and would like to buy a lot on which to put her trailer. VI.

Death of Alternate Payee: In the event of the Alternate Payee's death prior to her receiving the full amount of benefits called for under this Order and under the benefit option chosen by the Alternate Payee, such Alternate Payee's beneficiary(ies), as designated on the appropriate form provided by the Plan Administrator (or in the absence of a beneficiary designation, her estate), shall receive the remainder of any unpaid benefits under the terms of this Order. 11. Death of Participant: In the event that the Participant dies prior to the date the Alternate Payee receives a full distribution of her interest in the Plan, such Alternate Payee shall be treated as the surviving spouse of the Participant for any death benefits payable under the Plan to the extent of the full amount of her benefits as called for under Paragraph 8 of this Order.

(d) 13. Certification of Necessary Information: All payments made pursuant to this Order shall be conditioned on the certification by the Altemate Payee and the Participant to the Plan Administrator of such information as the Plan Administrator may reasonably require from such parties to make the necessary calculation of the benefit amounts contained herein. 14. Continued Qualified Status of Order: It is the intention of the parties that this QDRO continue to qualify as a QDRO under Section 414(p) of the Code, as it may be amended from time to time, and that the Plan Administrator shall reserve the right to reconfirm the qualified status of the Order at the time benefits become payable hereunder. 15. Tax Treatment of Distributions Made Under This Order: For purposes of Sections 402(a) of ERISA and 72 of the Code, any Alternate Payee who is the spouse or former spouse of the Participant shall be treated as the distributee of any distribution or payments made to the Alternate Payee under the terms of this Order, and as such, will be required to pay the appropriate federal, state and local income taxes on such distribution. The tax basis of the assets awarded to each party by this Order shall be a proportionate share of the Participant's total tax basis in all the assets held in the Plan and allocated to his plan account.

The notice shall be sent via regular first-class mail. For this purpose, the Alternate Payee shall notify the Participant of any changes in her mailing address.

The Master has been advised that after negotiations this morning the parties have reached an agreement with respect to the outstanding economic issues. Therefore, no hearing will be necessary on the factor of marital misconduct. An agreement is going to be placed on the record in the presence of the parties. The agreement as placed on the record will be considered the substantive agreement of the parties not subject to any changes or modifications except for correction of typographical errors which may be made during the transcription. After the agreement has been transcribed, it will be sent to counsel for review for typographical errors. Corrections, if necessary, will be made and then the agreement will be provided to counsel in a final draft for the parties to affix their signatures affirming the terms of settlement. In any event, the parties are bound by the terms of the agreement when they leave the hearing room today even though there is no subsequent signing of the agreement affirming the settlement terms. Upon receipt by the Master of a completed agreement, the Master will prepare an order vacating his appointment and counsel will then be in a position to file a praecipe transmitting the record to the Court requesting a 2 , final decree in divorce.

Effect of This Order as a Qualified Domestic Relations Order: This Order creates and recognizes the existence of an Alternate Payee's right to receive a portion of the Participant's benefits payable under an employer-sponsored defined contribution pension plan that is qualified under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, (the "Code") and the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, ("ERISA"). It is intended to constitute a Qualified Domestic Relations Order ("QDRO") under Section 414 (p) of the Code and Section 206(d)(3) of ERISA. 6. Pursuant to State Domestic Relations Law: This Order is entered pursuant to the authority granted in the applicable domestic relations laws of Pennsylvania. 7. For Provisions of Marital Property Rights: This Order relates to the provision of marital property rights as a result of the Order of Divorce between the Participant and the Altemate Payee. 8. Amount of Alternate Payee's Benefit: This Order assigns to the Alternate Payee an amount equal to Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000.00) of the Participant's account balance accumulated under the Plan. The Alternate Payee's portion of the benefits shall be allocated on a prorata basis from all of the accounts and/or investment funds maintained under the Plan on behalf of the Participant. The Alternate Payee shall receive a lump sum distribution of her interest in the Plan which shall be transferred, via a direct rollover, to her IRA account with Sovereign Bank, 269 Penrose Place, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013, Account No. 2891048059, Routing No. 231372691 in the name of Bonita J. Cramer. This transfer shall be made in accordance with Plan procedures as soon as administratively feasible following the qualification of this Order by the Plan Administrator. 9. Alternate Payee's Rights and Privileges: On and after the date that this Order is deemed to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, but before the Alternate Payee receives her total distribution under the Plan, the Altemate Payee shall be entilled to all of the rights and election privileges that are afforded to Plan beneficiaries, including, but not limited to, the rules regarding the right to designate a beneficiary for death benefit purposes and the right to direct Plan investments, only to the extent permitted under the provisions of the Plan. 10. Death of Alternate Payee: In the event of the Alternate Payee's death prior to her receiving the full amount of benefits called for under this Order and under the benefit option chosen by the Alternate Payee, such Alternate Payee's beneficiary(ies), as designated on the appropriate form provided by the Plan Administrator (or in the absence of a beneficiary designation, her estate), shall receive the remainder of any unpaid benefits under the terms of this Order. 11. Death of Participant: In the event that the Participant dies prior to the date the Alternate Payee receives a full distribution of her interest in the Plan, such Alternate Payee shall be treated as the surviving spouse of the Participant for any death benefits payable under the Plan to the extent of the full amount of her benefits as called for under Paragraph 8 of this Order. Should the Participant predecease the Alternate Payee after distribution has occurred, such Participant's death shall in no way affect the Alternate Payee's right to the portion of her benefits as stipulated herein. 12. Savings Clause: This Order is not intended, and shall not be construed in such a manner as to require the Plan: Drafted: 6/13/05 06-06-05-014-1434Q (d) to provide any type or form of benefit or any option not otherwise provided under the terms of the Plan; to provide increased benefits determined on the basis of actuarial value; to pay any benefits to the Alternate Payee which are required to be paid to another alternate payee under another order that was previously determined to be a QDRO; or to make any payment or take any action which is inconsistent with any federal or state law, rule, regulation or applicable judicial decision. (a) (b) (c) 13. Certification of Necessary Information: All payments made pursuant to this Order shall be conditioned on the certification by the Alternate Payee and the Participant to the Plan Administrator of such information as the Plan Administrator may reasonably require from such parties to make the necessary calculation of the benefit amounts contained herein. 14. Continued Qualified Status of Order: It is the intention of the parties that this QDRO continue to qualify as a QDRO under Section 414(p) of the Code, as it may be amended from time to time, and that the Plan Administrator shall reserve the right to reconfirm the qualified status of the Order at the time benefits become payable hereunder. 15. Tax Treatment of Distributions Made Under This Order: For purposes of Sections 402(a) of ERISA and 72 of the Code, any Alternate Payee who is the spouse or former spouse of the Participant shall be treated as the distributee of any distribution or payments made to the Alternate Payee under the terms of this Order, and as such, will be required to pay the appropriate federal, state and local income taxes on such distribution. The tax basis of the assets awarded to each party by this Order shall be a proportionate share of the Participant's total tax basis in all the assets held in the Plan and allocated to his plan account. The Participant shall make such documents and records as are reasonably required by the Alternate Payee to determine such tax basis available to the Altemate Payee. 16. Constructive Receipt: In the event that the Plan Trustee inadvertently pays to the Participant any benefits that are assigned to the Alternate Payee pursuant to the terms of this Order, the Participant shall immediately reimburse the Alternate Payee to the extent that the Participant has received such benefit payments, and shall forthwith pay such amounts so received directly to the Alternate Payee within ten (10) days of receipt. In the event that the Plan Trustee inadvertently pays to the Alternate Payee any benefits that are to remain the sole property of the Participant pursuant to the terms of this Order, the Alternate Payee shall immediately reimburse the Participant to the extent that the Alternate Payee has received such benefit payments, and shall forthwith pay such amounts so received directly to the Participant within ten (10) days of receipt. 17. Continued Jurisdiction: The Court shall retain jurisdiction with respect to this Order to the extent required to maintain its qualified status and the original intent of the parties as stipulated herein. The Court shall also retain jurisdiction to enter such further orders as are necessary to enforce the assignment of benefits to the Alternate Payee as set forth herein, including, but not limited to, the recharacterization thereof as a division of benefits under another plan, as applicable, or to make an award of alimony, if applicable, in the event that the Participant or the Plan Administrator fail to comply with the provisions contained in this Order requiring said payments to the Altemate Payee. Drafted: 6/13105 06-06-05-014-1434Q . 18. Effect of Plan Termination: In the event of a Plan termination, the Alternate Payee shall be entitled to receive her portion of the Participant's benefits as stipulated herein in accordance with the Plan's termination provisions for participants and beneficiaries. 19. Actions by Participant: The Participant shall not take any actions, affirmative or otherwise, that circumvent the terms and provisions of this Qualified Domestic Relations Order, or that diminish or extinguish the rights and entitlements of the Alternate Payee as set forth herein. Should the Participant take any action or inaction to the detriment of the Altemate Payee, the Participant shall be required to make sufficient payments directly to the Altemate Payee to the extent necessary to neutralize the effects of the Participant's actions or inactions, and to the extent of the Alternate Payee's full entitlements hereunder. 20. Notice of Pending Retirement: In the event that the Plan Administrator requires the Alternate Payee to wait until the Participant's actual date of termination of employment or retirement before becoming eligible to receive her distribution, then the Participant shall be required to notify the Alternate Payee, in writing, within ten (10) days following his termination of employment or retirement. The notice shall be sent via regular first-class mail. For this purpose, the Alternate Payee shall notify the Participant of any changes in her mailing address. , /" ~ /' ~~7~~"//~( J.
