PETITION FOR LEAVE TO COMPROMISE MINOR'S ACTION Pursuant to Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure Number 2039, Lease and Charles Lex, natural parents and legal guardians of minor, Andrew Lex, by and through their attorneys, HANDLER, HENNING & ROSENBERG, LLP, by David H Rosenberg, Esq., petition this Honorable Court to enter an Order permitting settlement and compromise of this action, and in support thereof aver: 1. Andrew Lex was born on June 13, 1986, and, therefore, is 17 years old and a minor. He currently resides with his parents, Lease and Charles Lex, at 3 Mandy Lane, Dillsburg, York County, Pennsylvania 17019. 2. Kristina Bauer is an adult individual currently residing at 13 East Keller Street, Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17055. 3. At all times material hereto, the minor, Andrew Lex was a passenger in a 1997 Mercury Villager (hereinafter "Petitioner's vehicle") bearing Pennsylvania registration number WWD 833 which was owned and operated by his mother, Lease Lex. 4. At all times material hereto, Kristina Bauer (hereinafter "Respondent") was the operator of a 1989 Pontiac 600-LE (hereinafter "Respondent's vehicle") bearing Pennsylvania registration number CBV-8715 and was owned by Thomas R. MacGregor, 5. At all times material hereto, Petitioner's vehicle was lawfully traveling southbound on South York Street approaching the intersection of Diehl Road in Upper Allen Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. 6. On or about August 31, 2001, Respondent, Kristina Bauer, was operating Respondent's vehicle on Diehl Road traveling eastbound and approaching the intersection with South York Street in Upper Allen Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. 7, Respondent failed to obey the posted stop sign on Diehl Road and proceeded into the intersection, striking Petitioner's vehicle. (Attached hereto, made a part hereof and marked "Exhibit A" is a copy the police report.) 8. As a direct and proximate result of the negligence of the Respondent, the minor, Andrew Lex, suffered some hearing loss, tinnitus and pain with noise exposure as a result of his head colliding with the air bag, 9. Andrew was initially seen in the Holy Spirit Hospital in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania. He was treated and released the same day. 10. Following this visit to the emergency room, Andrew was treated by Dr. John 2 Fornadley and by Dr. Wesley VanderArk. He was released from care on February 14, 2003. (Attached hereto, made a part hereof and marked "Exhibit B" is a copy of Dr. Fornadley's written report.) 11. The Respondent's vehicle was insured under a policy of motor vehicle insurance issued by Allstate Insurance Company that was in effect at the time of the collision which provided $25,000 in insurance coverage. 12. After protracted negotiations, Allstate Insurance Company offered to settle Andrew Lex's injury claim for the policy limit of twenty five thousand dollars ($25,000.00). 13. David H Rosenberg, Esq., certifies and believes the amount of the settlement is reasonable in light of the nature of Andrew's injuries and the fact that this represents the policy limits. 14. Petitioners, Lease and Charles Lex, believe said settlement is in the best interests of their minor son, Andrew Lex, and propose to accept said settlement offer of $25,000.00 from Allstate Insurance Company, thereby releasing Respondent from any and all claims, suits and/or other actions in the future. 15. David H Rosenberg, Esq., of HANDLER, HENNING & ROSENI~ERG, LLP, has been the attorney for the minor in this action and he requests counsel fees of six thousand two hundred fifty dollars ($6,250.00) for services rendered, plus costs and expenses of two hundred twenty dollars and eighty seven cents ($220.87) pursuant to the Contingent Fee Agreements signed by Petitioners. The 25% fee represents a reduction from the 33 I/3% fee agreement signed by Lease Lex on behalf of Andrew Lex. Thus, the total amount requested by counsel for representing Andrew Lex is six thousand four hundred seventy dollars and eighty seven cents ($6,470.87). (Attached hereto, made a part hereof and marked "Exhibit C" is a copy of the Contingent Fee Agreement and billing statement.) 16. Petitioners request this Honorable Court order payment of the balance of eighteen thousand five hundred twenty nine dollars and thirteen cents ($18,529.13) to be placed in an account investing only in securities guaranteed by the United States Government or by a Federal Government agency managed by responsible financial institutions, bearing the name of the minor, Andrew Lex, that is marked, "Not to be withdrawn until minor reaches the age of 18 or without the Order of a Court of competent jurisdiction." Proof of deposit to be filed with this Court. 4 WHEREFORE, Petitioners request this Honorable Court to: a. Authorize Lease and Charles Lex to sign the release; b. Approve the Compromise stated above; c. Authorize the payment of fees and expenses stated above from funds due to the minor; and d. Direct payment of the net funds due, in accordance with the Compromise stated above.

Arlington Avenue Harrisburg, PA 17109 RE: LEX, ANDREW Dear Dr. Darowish: It was my privilege to evaluate Andrew Lex. As you know, he is 16-year-old who was a restrained passenger in a motor vehicle accident where the airbags deployed and he was hit in the right ear in August 2002. By his report and his Mother's, there ~vas no evident loss of consciousness. He was evaluated at an emergency facility but did not require any medical or surgical intervention. He notes no vertigo or drainage, but feels decreased hearing, tirmitus which is occasional, and a marked difficulty with loud noises. Whenever a relatively loud noise occurs, it causes Andrew substantial discomfort. On examination, he has normal extraocular motions without nystagmus or diplopia. Cranial nerve function appears normal with the exception of the eighth nerve. His communication skills are good. The external canals are normal bilaterally. The tympanic membranes are intact without retraction. There is an aerated middle ear space bilaterally. The nose is mildly congested but without mass, polyps, purulent discharge. The nasopharynx is clear and the eustachian tube orifices are non-obstructed. The oral cavity and hypopharynx have no mucosal based lesions, and the anterior cervical examination shows no thyromegaly or adenopathy. Tuning fork examination reveals the Weber to be midline to slightly right, air is greater than bone bilaterally with the Pdnne. An audiogram shows normal heating in the left ear. The right ear is showing a mild-to-moderate mixed heating loss. The pure tone average is 7 decibels to the left and 25 decibels to the ri~t. Speech reception is 10 decibels in the left and 30 decibels in the right. Unaided speech discrimination is 100% in the left and 96% in the right. A conductive heating loss is 20 decibels at 500 Hz, and t5 decibels at 1000 and 2000 Hz. A conductive loss resolves at 3000 and 4000 Hz. We had a considerable discussion over these findings. There is no perforation to the tymparfic membrane and no fluid retained in the middle ear space. It appears very likely that ossicular chain n'auma is responsible for the conductive component to his heating loss. Unfortunately it does appear that he has sustained a moderate sensorineural loss that appears to be related to the accident. There is no surgical procedure or medical therapy to restore the sensorineural component to his loss. Surgical exploration of the middle ear to evaluate the ossicles and determine site of lesion is certainly possible. However, the conductive hearing loss, ~hil,e_~ significant, is small enough that it is unlikely to expect surgical therapy to provide 9 benefit. He has experienced no dysequilibriurn. I expect he will accommodate ar~Ve~xp~nL~e less discomfort with loud noises as he completes the first year post trauma. However, the JoI4N A. FORNADLEY, MD, FACS ROO~R J. LEVlN, MD, FACS ANI)!ZEW M.

A hearing aid evaluation may be beneficial for the right ear because of the mixed hearing loss. However, I think it is best to hold off on this for now because of the pain that comes with loud noises in the right ear. He should wear hearing protection in all loud noise environments and may choose to place an ear plug in the right ear when there is a substantial chance he will be exposed to loud noises. I certainly would like to recheck his hearing in one ear, sooner should the situation change. Sincerely, JoiA. Fo~D., F.A.C.S. JAF/mjv cc: Lease Lex 3 Mandy Lane Dillsburg, PA 17O19 File JOHN A.
