Defendant Magic Years Child Care & Learning Centers, Inc., is a corporation 2 duly organized and existing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania with a place of business at 14 Brookwood Avenue, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013. 4. Defendant Children's Discovery Centers of America, Inc., doing business as Knowledge Learning Corporation, also doing business as Magic Years Child Care & Learning Centers, Inc., is a Delaware corporation licensed to conduct business in Pennsylvania, and in this instance was doing business as Magic Years Child Care & Learning Centers at 14 Brookwood Avenue, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013. 5. Defendant Polly Pluta is the former Center Director of Defendant Magic Years Child Care & Learning Centers at 14 Brookwood Avenue, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013. 6. On or about the morning of October 9,2001, Lyndsey was in the care of Defendant Magic Years Child Care & Learning Centers, Inc. 7. At or about 11 :00 a.m. on October 9, 2001, Lyndsey began crying and tugging at her diapers. 8. At or about 11 :00 a.m. on October 9,2001, Lyndsey underwent a diaper change, at which time Ms. Liz, a staff member of Defendant Magic Years Child Care & Learning Centers, Inc.., completed an "Ouch Report" that indicated, "on her right leg skin appears to be coming off, red blistery skin, while I was changing her." 9. With Petitioner Traci Turner's approval, Defendant Pluta washed the area on Lyndsey's leg, but several minutes later the reddened area had spread and had also appeared on Lyndsey's other leg. 10. Petitioner Traci Turner picked up Lindsey and rushed her to her pediatrician, Dr. Lynn Hoffman. 3 11. Dr. Hoffinan diagnosed Lyndsey with a chemical burn and treated her with bum cream. Copies of minor Petitioner's medical records detailing the initial treatment of her injuries are attached hereto as Exhibit "A". 12. On Dr. Hoffman's referral, Lyndsey presented to a plastic surgeon, Peter Giesswein, M.D., on January 22, 2002, who treated her scarring with a compression stocking. Copies of minor Petitioner's medical records detailing Dr. Giesswein's treatment are attached hereto as Exhibit "B". A photograph of Lyndsey's scar is attached hereto as Exhibit "C". 13.

In an effort to settle this case, the parties have agreed that the sum of Twenty-seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($27,500.00) will be paid by Defendants to Lyndsey Turner, a minor, in exchange for a release of all claims. Insofar as execution of the Release requires the Court's permission, attached as Exhibit "D" is an unsigned copy of the Release that has been proposed. 15. The $27,500.00 is to be paid as follows: a. $7,455.36, shall be paid upon the Court's approval of this petition for the payment of attorneys fees and costs. b. $20,044.64 shall be paid to purchase a guaranteed annuity from Allstate Financial, with an address of 31 00 Sanders Road, Suite M3B, Northbrook, Illinois 60062-7154, through an individually designed settlement designed by The Pension Company, 101 West Elm Street, Suite 230, Conshohocken, Pennsylvania 19428. 4 Distributions from the annuity will be made to Lyndsey in four equal annual payments of$10,126.70 beginning at age 18. All payments will have been made before Lyndsey turns 22 years of age. The total yield from the annuity is $40,506.80. c. The total of the immediate cash payment and annuity distributions to Lyndsey equals $47,962.16. A true and correct copy of the Individually Designed Settlement Agreement distribution schedule is attached as Exhibit "E". 16.

HPI: Lyndsey is a two-year-old Caucasian female who presents with her mother for evaluation of a scar on the right leg as the result of a burn that she sustained three months ago. She was referred to me by Dr. Hoffman. PMH: Is unremarkable. The patient has always been very healthy, After birth, she thrived well. She was a full-term baby. Medications: None. Allergies: None, The ROS and past medical conditions was done. FH: Is positive for cancer. Father and mother are in good health, Examination: Two-year-old playful girl in no acute distress. The patient has a small burn scar on the right leg with slight hypertrophic scar formation. The area does not show, however, any keloidal formation. It does not seem to be irritated and palpation does not cause any pain. This scar is firm, but not hard. It is movable within the confines of the skin. I talked to mother in great length about this finding. Plan: I recommended the use of Mederma and I gave mother some samples. I would like to see Lyndsey back in about three to six months unless there's a problem in which case motqer knows to call me before. .
