the marital residence, situated at 1111 West Powderhorn Road, Mechanicsburg,

parties received the sum of $274,391.33 which is being held in escrow by the law firm of
Beckley & Madden.
4
Husband and Wife agree that Wife is owed the sum of $2,000.00 for repairs made
to the marital residence prior to the sale of the same. This amount will be paid to Wife
off the top from the proceeds being held in escrow.
Husband and Wife also agree that after Wife is reimbursed for the above-
mentioned expenses, Husband will receive the sum of $55,000.00 from the proceeds
being held in escrow in recognition of the equity Husband put down on the marital
residence as a result of premarital funds that were his alone.
Husband and Wife further agree that Wife will also receive the sum of $9,000.00
from the proceeds being held in escrow to be used for the purchase of health insurance
for the parties. This money is to be applied to the cost of the parties' COBRA family
plan health insurance through Wife's former employer Triad Strategies LLC. Said health
insurance will begin May 1, 2009 and continue through January 31, 2010. In the event
Wife would receive any sort of refund for the cost of said health insurance, the parties
agree to divide this refund evenly between them.
The balance of the proceeds being held in escrow, after all the above-mentioned
items are paid, will be divided evenly between the parties.
Finally, Husband and Wife agree that Wife will be entitled to claim the mortgage
interest from the marital residence for 2008 on her tax return.
11. DIVISION OF PERSONAL PROPERTY: The parties have divided
between them, to their mutual satisfaction, their personal property and the personal
effects, household furniture and furnishings, and all other articles of personal property
which have theretofore been used by them in common, and neither party will make any
claim to any items of personal property which are now in the possession or under the
control of the other. Should it become necessary, the parties each agree to sign any titles
or documents necessary to give effect to this paragraph upon request.
Husband was the owner of an Ameriprise Financial Advisors franchise which was
5
purchased during the marriage. This business has been sold and Wife received the first
$90,000.00 from the sales agreement as her share of the equitable distribution of said
business and not as alimony. Husband will become the sole and separate owner of all
remaining balances due and owing under this sales agreement. Husband will also be
solely and separately responsible for any and all tax liability that may be due as a result
of the sale of said business.
Husband and Wife further agree that any business enterprises established by
either of them after September 1, 2007, will become the sole and separate property of the
individual that started the business.
12. AUTOMOBILES AND BOAT: Husband and Wife agree that
Husband shall be the sale and separate owner of the 1994 Plymouth Voyager and the
2005 Honda and Wife shall become the sole and separate owner of the 2004 Toyota Prius
and the 15' Mutineer sailboat. Husband and Wife agree to assume all responsibility for
any outstanding debt balance on his or her respective vehicle, indemnifying and holding
the other harmless from any financial responsibility arising from nonpayment thereon.
Husband and Wife agree to execute any and all instruments and documents necessary in
order to effectuate the transfer of title to said automobiles and boat.
13. LIFE INSURANCE POLICIES: Husband and Wife agree to waive
any and all claims and relinquish all rights and interest they may have in any and all life
insurance policies of the other.
14. COUNSEL FEES: Husband and Wife agree that each will be solely
and separately liable for his or her own counsel fees.
15. BREACH: If either party breaches any provision of this Agreement, the
6
other party shall have the right, at his or her election, to sue for damages for such breach,
to sue for specific performance, and to seek such other remedies or relief as may be
available to him or her, and the party breaching this contract shall be responsible for
payment of legal fees and costs incurred by the other in enforcing their rights under this
Agreement.
16. ADDITIONAL INSTRUMENTS: Each of the parties shall from time to
time, at the request of the other, execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the other party any
and all further instruments that maybe reasonably required to give full force and effect to
the provisions of this Agreement.
Husband and Wife agree that they shall remain legally married until January 31,
2010, in order for them to be able to continue their current health insurance. Husband
and Wife further agree that they will each sign an Affidavit of Consent and Waiver of
Notice and any other documentation required to complete their divorce as of February 1,
2010.
17. VOLUNTARY EXECUTION: Wife has employed and had the benefit
of counsel from Elizabeth S. Beckley, Esquire, as her attorney. Husband has had the
opportunity to obtain counsel for himself but has chosen not to employ counsel on his
behalf.
Mach party acknowledges that he or she fully understands the facts and has been
fully informed as to his or her legal rights and obligations, and each party acknowledges
and accepts that this Agreement is, under the circumstances, fair and equitable, and that it
is being entered into freely and voluntarily after having received such advice and/or with
such knowledge as each. party desires, and that execution of this Agreement is not the
result of any duress or undue influence and that it is not the result of any collusion or
improper or illegal agreement or agreements. Also, each party hereto acknowledges that

under the Pennsylvania Divorce Reform Act, the Court has the right and duty to
determine all marital rights of the parties, including divorce, alimony, alimony pendente
lite, equitable distribution of all marital property or property owned or possessed
individually by the other, counsel fees and costs of litigation and, fully knowing the same
and being advised of his or her rights thereunder, each party hereto still desires to execute
this Agreement, acknowledging that the terms and conditions set forth herein are fair,
just, and equitable to each of the parties, and each party waives their respective right to
have the Court of Common Pleas or any Court of competent jurisdiction make any
determination or order affecting the respective parties' right to a alimony, alimony
pendente lite, equitable distribution of all marital property, counsel fees and costs of
litigation.
18. ENTIRE AGREEMENT: This Agreement contains the entire
understanding of the parties, and there are no representations, warranties, covenants, or
undertakings other than those expressly set forth herein. This Agreement shall be binding
upon the parties hereto, and there respective heirs, executors, administrators and assigns.
19. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER: A modification or waiver of any of
the provisions of this Agreement shall be effective only if made in writing and executed
by both parties with the same formality as this Agreement. The failure of either party to
insist upon strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not be
construed as a waiver of any subsequent default of the same or similar nature.
20. SEVERABILITY: If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court
of competent jurisdiction to be void, invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions
hereof shall nevertheless survive and continue in full force and effect without being
impaired or invalidated in any way.
8
21. INCORPORATION: In the event that the parties obtain a divorce, a
divorce decree issued by a Court of competent jurisdiction may incorporate the terms of
this Agreement, but such incorporation shall not operate as a merger of this Agreement
into the divorce decree, and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect
independently of such divorce decree.
22. DATE OF EXECUTION/EFFECTIVE DATE: The "date of
execution" or "execution date" of this Agreement shall be defined as the date upon which
the parties signed the Agreement if they did so on the same date, or if not on the same
date, then the date on which the Agreement was signed by the last party to execute this
Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective and binding upon both parties on the
execution date.
23. DESCRIPTIVE HEADINGS: The descriptive headings used herein are
for convenience only. They shall have no effect whatsoever in determining the rights or
obligations of the parties.
