be increased to reflect the Alternate Payee's proportionate share of any such increase based on the
Alternate Payee's percentage of the Participant's accrued benefit under the Plan, as set forth in
Paragraph 1 above.
3. If the Participant retires under the early retirement provisions of the Plan and

H. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
1. (a) The Participant, the Alternate Payee and this Court intend this Order to be
a "qualified domestic relations order" ("QDRO") within the meaning of Code Section 414(p) and
ERISA Section 206(d). This Order does not require the Plan to:
(i) provide any type or form of benefit, or any benefit option, not otherwise
provided under the Plan;
(ii) provide increased benefits (determined on the basis of actuarial value);
or
(iii) provide benefits to the Alternate Payee that are required to be paid to
another alternate payee under another order previously determined to be a QDRO.
(b) The parties agree that their mutual intent is to provide the Alternate Payee
with a benefit under the Plan that fairly represents the Alternate Payee's marital share of the
benefit as determined in Section C hereof.
(c) If it is determined that this Order is not a QDRO, the parties hereby agree to
submit to and request a court of competent jurisdiction to modify the Order to qualify it as a
QDRO in such a manner that will reflect the parties' intent as herein expressed.
2. The assignment of this Order shall be permanent. From the date of this order and
thereafter, the Participant shall have no further right or interest in that portion of the
Participant's accrued benefit under the Plan that is assigned hereunder to the Alternate Payee,
and the Alternate Payee shall have no further right or interest in the Participant's remaining
accrued benefit under the Plan.
3. If the Plan is terminated after this Order is determined to be a QDRO, but before
the Alternate Payee has received the entire interest in the Plan assigned hereunder, and, if at
termination the Plan has unfunded liabilities, any reduction in the benefits payable under the
Plan with respect to the Participant shall be applied proportionately to the Participant and the
Alternate Payee based on their respective interests under the Plan.
4. This Order is issued pursuant to 23 P.C.S.A. §3502, which relates to the provision
of marital property rights, child support and/or alimony payments in domestic relations actions.

PETITION FOR BIFURCATION
TO THE HONORABLE, THE JUDGES OF SAID COURT:
AND NOW COMES Petitioner, Mark L. Pulaski, by his attorney, Lori K. Serratelli,
Esquire and the law firm of SERRATELLI, SCHIFFMAN, BROWN & CALHOON and requests
that this Honorable Court grant him a Bifurcation in the above captioned matter and in support
thereof, avers as follows:
1. Petitioner is the Defendant in the above-captioned matter.
2. Respondent is the Plaintiff in the above-captioned matter.
3. The parties were married on April 24, 1976 in Northumberland County, Pennsylvania.
4. On November 30, 1999, Respondent filed a Complaint in Divorce, alleging as the
grounds therefore, the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage and indignities and also making
claims for Equitable Distribution, Alimony, Alimony Pendente Lite, Counsel Fee and Expenses
and Custody.
5. The parties have lived separate and apart since September 1998 as alleged in
Defendant's Affidavit which is being filed with the Court simultaneously herewith.
6. The parties have been unable to resolve the ancillary economic claims to this divorce
matter.
7. The Pennsylvania Divorce Code permits bifurcation where the parties have lived
separate and apart for a period of at least two years and where the marriage is irretrievably
broken.

the Pennsylvania Divorce Code of 1980, as amended, and will not prejudice the rights and
interests of Respondent.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner, Mark L. Pulaski, respectfully requests that this Honorable
Court grant him a Bifurcation. Specifically, Petitioner requests that this Court bifurcate the
divorce from the pending economic claims and reserve jurisdiction over the claims raised by the
Petitioner.

2. If the Plan pays a cost-of-living increase or any other postretirement benefit
increase to the Participant, the benefit assigned to the Alternate Payee in Paragraph I above shall
be increased to reflect the Alternate Payee's proportionate share of any such increase based on the
Alternate Payee's percentage of the Participant's accrued benefit under the Plan, as set forth in
Paragraph 1 above.
3, If the Participant retires under the early retirement provisions of the Plan and
receives an early retirement subsidy therefrom, the Alternate Payee shall be entitled to receive a
proportionate share of such subsidy based on the Alternate Payee's percentage of the Participant's
accrued benefit, as set forth in Paragraph 1 above.
D. TIME OF PAYMENTS TO THE ALTERNATE PAYEE
The Plan shall begin to pay benefits under the Plan to the Alternate Payee as of the
date elected by the Alternate Payee, which date shall not be earlier than the date on which the
Participant attains (or would have attained) the earliest retirement age, as defined in Code
section 414(p)(4)(B), under the Plan or such earlier date allowed by the Plan.
E. FORM OF PAYMENTS TO THE ALTERNATE PAYEE
The Alternate Payee shall elect to receive payment under the Plan in any form offered
by the Plan for which the Participant is eligible, other than in the form of a joint and survivor
annuity payable to the Alternate Payee and her spouse.
F. DEATH OF THE ALTERNATE PAYEE
1. If the Alternate Payee dies prior to the commencement of benefit payments to the
Alternate Payee, the Alternate Payee's interest in the Plan shall revert to the Participant.
2. If the Alternate Payee dies after the commencement of benefit payments to the
Alternate Payee, the form of benefit that the Alternate Payee was receiving upon death shall
determine whether any amounts are owed to any beneficiary designated by the Alternate Payee
upon the Alternate Payee's death. Any such beneficiary designation shall apply without regard to
any beneficiary designation made by the Participant with respect to the Participant's remaining
accrued benefit under the Plan.
G. DEATH OF THE PARTICIPANT
The assignment of benefits to the Alternate Payee hereunder shall not be reduced,
abated or terminated as a result of the death of the Participant. Upon the Participant's death, the
Alternate Payee shall not be entitled to any survivor benefits attributable to the Participant's
remaining accrued benefit under the Plan unless the Participant designates, in accordance with
the terms of the Plan, the Alternate Payee as the Participant's beneficiary.

H. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
1. (a) The Participant, the Alternate Payee and this Court intend this Order to be
a "qualified domestic relations order" ("QDRO") within the meaning of Code Section 414(p) and
ERISA Section 206(d). This Order does not require the Plan to:
(i) provide any type or form of benefit, or any benefit option, not otherwise
provided under the Plan;
(ii) provide increased benefits (determined on the basis of actuarial value);
or
(iii) provide benefits to the Alternate Payee that are required to be paid to
another alternate payee under another order previously determined to be a QDRO.
(b) The parties agree that their mutual intent is to provide the Alternate Payee
with a benefit under the Plan that fairly represents the Alternate Payee's marital share of the
benefit as determined in Section C hereof.
(c) If it is determined that this Order is not a QDRO, the parties hereby agree to
submit to and request a court of competent jurisdiction to modify the Order to qualify it as a
QDRO in such a manner that will reflect the parties' intent as herein expressed.
2. The assignment of this Order shall be permanent. From the date of this order and
thereafter, the Participant shall have no further right or interest, in that portion of the
Participant's accrued benefit under the Plan that is assigned hereunder to the Alternate Payee,
and the Alternate Payee shall have no further right or interest in. the Participant's remaining
accrued benefit under the Plan.
3. If the Plan is terminated after this Order is determined to be a QDRO, but before
the Alternate Payee has received the entire interest in the Plan assigned hereunder, and, if at
termination the Plan has unfunded liabilities, any reduction in the benefits payable under the
Plan with respect to the Participant shall be applied proportionately to the Participant and the
Alternate Payee based on their respective interests under the Plan.
4. This Order is issued pursuant to 23 P.C.S.A. §3502, which relates to the provision
of marital property rights, child support and/or alimony payments in domestic relations actions.
