MARITAL SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT, made this day of 2008, by and between,
Angela F. Chernov, (hereinafter called "Wife") and Stephen R. Chernov (hereinafter called
"Husband")
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, Husband and Wife were lawfully married on June 30, 2001; and
WHEREAS, the parties hereto are the natural parents of three (3) minor children, namely,
Jonathan A. Chernov, born May 3, 2002 (age 6 years); Alyssa P. Chernov, born November 19,
2003 (age 4 years); and Alisabeth G. Chernov, born January 7, 2005 (age 3 years); and
WHEREAS, the parties are now separate and apart within the meaning of the Pennsylvania
Divorce Code; and
WHEREAS, the parties hereto are desirous of resolving fully and finally their respective
financial and property rights and obligations as between each other, including, without limitation,
the settling of all matters between them relating to the ownership of real and personal property, the
support and maintenance of one another and, in general, the settling of any and all claims and
possible claims by one against the other or against their respective estates.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of these premises, and of the mutual promises,
covenants and undertakings hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by each of the parties hereto, Husband and
Wife, each intending to be legally bound hereby, covenant and agree as follows:
1. PERSONAL RIGHTS. Husband and Wife may, at all times hereafter, live
separate and apart. Each shall be free from all control, restraint, interference and authority, direct or
-1-
indirect by the other. Each may reside at such place or places as he or she may select. Each may,
for his or her separate use or benefit, conduct, carry on or engage in any business, occupation,
profession or employment which to him or her may seem advisable and each party shall not
interfere in any way with the other parry's business and/or business contacts. Husband and Wife
shall not molest, harass, disturb or malign each other, nor compel or attempt to compel the other to
cohabit or dwell by any means or in any manner whatsoever with him or her. Neither party will
interfere with the use, ownership, enjoyment or disposition of any property now owned by or
hereafter acquired by the other
2. ADVICE OF COUNSEL. Each party acknowledges that he or she has had the
opportunity to receive independent legal advice from counsel of his or her selection. Husband has
been represented in this matter by Linda A. Clotfelter, Esquire, and Wife has been informed that
she has the right to obtain independent legal counsel; however, Wife does not wish to hire legal
counsel and feels that she is able to adequately represent herself in this matter. Each party has had
the opportunity to review this Agreement and each fully understands the facts and his or her legal
rights and obligations. Each party also acknowledges and accepts that this Agreement is, under the
circumstances, fair and equitable, and that it is being entered into freely and voluntarily, and that the
execution of this Agreement is not the result of any duress or undue influence, and that it is not the
result of any improper or illegal agreement or agreements. In addition, each party understands the
impact of the Pennsylvania Divorce Code, whereby 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, each party hereto still desires to execute this
Agreement acknowledging that the terms and conditions set forth herein are fair, just and equitable
-2-
to each of the parties, and waives his and her respective right to have the Court of Common Pleas of
Cumberland County, or any other court of competent jurisdiction, make any determination or order
affecting the respective parties' rights to alimony, alimony pendente lite, support and maintenance,
equitable distribution, counsel fees and costs of litigation.
3. DISCLOSURE OF ASSETS. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that he or
she is aware of his or her right to seek discovery including, but not limited to, written
interrogatories, motions for production of documents, the taking of oral depositions, the filing of
inventories and all other means of discovery permitted under the Pennsylvania Divorce Code or the
Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure. Each of the parties further acknowledges that he or she has
had the opportunity to hire counsel to explain the concept of marital property under Pennsylvania
law and each is aware of his or her right to have the real and/or personal property, estate and assets,
earnings and income of the other assessed or evaluated by the courts of this Commonwealth or any
other court of competent jurisdiction. The parties do hereby acknowledge that there has been full
and fair disclosure to the other of his or her respective income, assets and liabilities, whether such
are held jointly, in the name of one party alone or in the name of one of the parties and another
individual or individuals. Each party agrees that any right to further disclosure, valuation, appraisal
or enumeration or statement thereof in this Agreement is hereby specifically waived, and the parties
do not wish to make or append hereto any further enumeration or statement. Specifically, each
party waives the need for copies of bank statements, insurance policies, retirement plan statements
or any other documentation. Each party warrants that he or she is not aware of any marital asset
which is not identified in this Agreement. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the
division of assets as set forth in this Agreement is fair, reasonable, and equitable, and is satisfactory
to them. Each of the parties hereto further covenants and agrees for himself and herself and his or
-3-
her heirs, executors, administrators or assigns, that he or she will never at any time hereafter sue the
other party or his or her heirs, executors, administrators or assigns in any action of contention,
direct or indirect, and allege therein that there was a denial of any rights to full disclosure, or that
there was any fraud, duress, undue influence or that there was a failure to have available full, proper
and independent representation by legal counsel.
4. MUTUAL CONSENT DIVORCE. It is the intention of the parties, and the
parties agree, that by this Agreement they have resolved all ancillary economic issues related to the
dissolution of their marriage and thus any divorce action with respect to these parties shall be
limited to a claim for divorce only. Husband filed a Divorce Complaint in the Court of Common
Pleas of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania to Civil Docket Number 08 - 0038. The parties agree
that concurrently with the execution of this Agreement they will each execute an Affidavit of
Consent and Waiver of Notice of Intention to Request Entry of Divorce Decree so that either party
may finalize the divorce action in a timely fashion. In the event, for whatever reason, either party
fails or refuses to execute such affidavit upon the other party's timely request, that party shall
indemnify, defend and hold the other harmless from any and all additional expenses, including
actual counsel fees, resulting from any action brought to compel the refusing party to consent.
Each party hereby agrees that a legal or equitable action may be brought to compel him or her to
execute a consent form and that, absent some breach of this Agreement by the proceeding party,
there shall be no defense to such action asserted. Upon completion of the divorce action, counsel
obtaining a divorce decree shall supply to opposing party a copy of the Decree.
5. INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS. The transfers of property pursuant to
this Agreement are transfers between Husband and Wife incident to their divorce and as such are
nontaxable, with no gain or loss recognized. The transferee's basis in the property shall be the
-4-
adjusted basis of the transferor immediately before the transfer. The transfers herein are an equal
division of marital property for full and adequate consideration and as such will not result in any
gift tax liability.
6. DISCLOSURE AND WAIVER OF PROCEDURAL RIGHTS. Each party
understands that he or she has the right: (1) to obtain from the other party a complete inventory or
list of all of the property that either or both parties own at this time or owned as of the date of
separation; (2) to have all such property valued by means of appraisals or otherwise; (3) to
compulsory discovery to assist in the discovery and verification of facts relevant to their
respective rights and obligations, including the right to question the other party under oath; and
(4) to have a court hold hearings and make decision on the matters covered by this Agreement,
which court decision concerning the parties' respective rights and obligations might be different
from the provisions of this Agreement.
Each party acknowledges that this Agreement is fair and equitable, that it adequately
provides for his or her needs and is in his or her best interests, and that the agreement is not the
result of any fraud, duress, or undue influence exercised by either party upon the other or by any
other person or persons upon either party.
Given said understanding and acknowledgment, both parties hereby waive the following
procedural rights:
a. Inventory: The right to obtain an inventory of all marital and separate property as
defined by the Pennsylvania Divorce Code.
b. Income and Expense Statement: The right to obtain an income and expense
statement of the other party as provided by the Pennsylvania Divorce Code,
except in instances where such an income and expense statement is hereafter
required to be filed in any child support action or any other proceedings pursuant
to an order of court.
-5-
C. Discovery: The right to have any discovery as may be permitted by the Rules of
Civil Procedure, except discovery arising out of a breach of this Agreement, out
of any child support action, or out of any other proceedings in which discovery is
specifically ordered by the court.
d. Determination of Marital and Non-Marital Property: The right to have the court
determine which property is marital and which is non-marital, and equitably
distribute between the parties that property which the court determines to be
marital.
e. Other Rights and Remedies: The right to have the court decide any other rights
remedies, privileges, or obligations covered by this Agreement, including, but not
limited to, possible claims for divorce, spousal support, alimony, alimony
pendente lite (temporary alimony), counsel fees, costs and expenses.
7. EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION. The parties have attempted to distribute their
marital property in a manner which conforms to the criteria set forth in Section 3502 of the
Pennsylvania Divorce Code. The division of existing marital property is not intended by the
parties to constitute in any way a sale or exchange of assets, and the division is being affected
without the introduction of outside funds or other property not constituting marital property. The
division of property under this Agreement shall be in full satisfaction of all marital rights of the
parties, and shall be as follows:
A. REAL ESTATE - 510 Anualachian Avenue, Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania:

of this Agreement or in the case of intangible personal property, if any physical or written
evidence of ownership, such as passbook, checkbook, policy or certificate of insurance or
other similar writing is in the possession or control of the party. This Agreement shall

property from one party to the other as set forth herein.

24. EFFECTIVE DATE. This Agreement shall become effective and binding upon
both parties on the execution date.

Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be abrogated even if the parties
effect a reconciliation, cohabit as husband and wife or attempt to effect a reconciliation. This

shall be no modification or waiver of any of the terms hereof unless the parties in writing execute
a statement declaring this Agreement or any term of this Agreement to be null and void.
26. HEADINGS NOT PART OF AGREEMENT. Any headings preceding the text
of the several paragraphs and subparagraphs hereof are inserted solely for convenience of
17
reference and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement nor shall they affect its meaning,

assigns, and successors in any interest of the parties.

read this Agreement; that he or she has sought sufficient legal advice from legal counsel of his or
her own choice, if any, and has executed it voluntarily and in reliance upon his or her own
attorney, if any; and that this instrument expresses the entire agreement between the parties
concerning the subjects it purports to cover and supersedes any and all prior agreements between
the parties. This Agreement should be interpreted fairly and simply, and not strictly for or
against either of the parties.

to the other any deeds, bills of sale, assignments, consents to change of beneficiary designations,
tax returns, and other documents, and shall do or cause to be done every other act or thing that
may be necessary or desirable to effectuate the provisions and purposes of this Agreement. If
either party unreasonably fails on demand to comply with these provisions, that party shall pay to
the other party all attorney's fees, costs, and other expenses actually incurred as a result of such
failure.
30. AGREEMENT NOT TO BE MERGED. This Agreement may be incorporated
into a decree of divorce for purposes of enforcement only, but otherwise shall not be merged into
said decree. The parties shall have the right to enforce this Agreement under the Divorce Code
18
of 1980, as amended, and in addition, shall retain any remedies in law or in equity under this
Agreement as an independent contract. Such remedies in law or equity are specifically not
waived or released.
31. BINDING EFFECT. BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY
ACKNOWLEDGES HAVING READ AND UNDERSTOOD THE ENTIRE
AGREEMENT, AND EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE PROVISIONS OF
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE AS BINDING UPON THE PARTIES AS IF THEY
WERE ORDERED BY THE COURT AFTER A FULL HEARING.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto
