The name(s) and last known address(es) of the Defendant(s) are: THOMAS CONN LESTER MILLER 4506 CARLISLE ROAD GARDNERS, PA 17324 who is/are the mortgagor(s) and/or real owner(s) of the property hereinafter described. 3. On 02/07/2007 mortgagor(s) made, executed, and delivered a mortgage upon the premises hereinafter described to MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION SYSTEMS, INC., AS A NOMINEE FOR AEGIS WHOLESALE CORPORATION which mortgage is recorded in the Office of the Recorder of CUMBERLAND County, in Book: 1982, Page: 1083. PLAINTIFF is now the legal owner of the mortgage and is in the process of formalizing an assignment of same. The mortgage and assignment(s), if any, are matters of public record and are incorporated herein by reference in accordance with Pa.R.C.P. 1019(g); which Rule relieves the Plaintiff from its obligations to attach documents to pleadings if those documents are of public record. 4. The premises subject to said mortgage is described as attached. 5. The mortgage is in default because monthly payments of principal and interest upon said mortgage due 10/01/2007 and each month thereafter are due and unpaid, and by the terms of said mortgage, upon failure of mortgagor to make such payments after a date specified by written notice sent to Mortgagor, the entire principal balance and all interest due thereon are collectible forthwith. File #: 173292 6 The following amounts are due on the mortgage: Principal Balance $79,999.17 Interest $2,957.28 09/01/2007 through 03/01/2008 (Per Diem $16.16) Attorney's Fees $1,250.00 Cumulative Late Charges $138.80 02/07/2007 to 03/01/2008 Cost of Suit and Title Search $750.00 Subtotal $85,095.25 Escrow Credit $0.00 Deficit $417.90 Subtotal $417.90 TOTAL $85,513.15 7. 8 If the mortgage is reinstated prior to a Sheriffs Sale, the attorney's fee set forth above may be less than the amount demanded based on work actually performed. The attorney's fees requested are in conformity with the mortgage and Pennsylvania law. Plaintiff reserves its right to collect attorney's fees up to 5% of the remaining principal balance in the event the property is sold to a third party purchaser at Sheriffs Sale, or if the complexity of the action requires additional fees in excess of the amount demanded in the Action. Plaintiff is not seeking a judgment of personal liability (or an in personam judgment) against the Defendant(s) in the Action; however, Plaintiff reserves its right to bring a separate Action to establish that right, if such right exists. If Defendant(s) has/have received a discharge of personal liability in a bankruptcy proceeding, this Action of Mortgage Foreclosure is in no way an attempt to reestablish such personal liability discharged in bankruptcy, but only to foreclose the mortgage and sell the mortgaged premises pursuant to Pennsylvania Law. File #: 173292 9. Notice of Intention to Foreclose as set forth in Act 6 of 1974, Notice of Homeowner's Emergency Assistance Program pursuant to Act 91 of 1983, as amended in 1998, and/or Notice of Default as required by the mortgage document, as applicable, have been sent to the Defendant(s) on the date(s) set forth thereon, and the temporary stay as provided by said notice has terminated because Defendant(s) has/have failed to meet with the Plaintiff or an authorized consumer credit counseling agency, or has/have been denied assistance by the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency. 10. This action does not come under Act 6 of 1974 because the original mortgage amount exceeds $50,000. WHEREFORE, PLAINTIFF demands an in rem Judgment against the Defendant(s) in the sum of $85,513.15, together with interest from 03/01/2008 at the rate of $16.16 per diem to the date of Judgment, and other costs and charges collectible under the mortgage and for the foreclosure and sale of the mortgaged property.

B a for , Esquire Attorney for Plaintiff PHELAN HALLINAN & SCHMIEG, LLP by: Michele M. Bradford, Esquire Atty. I.D. No. 69849 One Penn Center, Suite 1400 1617 John F. Kennedy Boulevard Philadelphia, PA 19103-1814 (215) 563-7000 CITIMORTGAGE, INC. ATTORNEY FOR PLAINTIFF Court of Common Pleas Plaintiff Civil Division VS. CUMBERLAND County THOMAS CONN No. 08-1449 CIVIL TERM LESTER MILLER Defendants MEMORANDUM OF LAW IN SUPPORT OF PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO REASSESS DAMAGES I. BACKGROUND OF CASE THOMAS CONN and LESTER MILLER executed a Promissory Note agreeing to pay principal, interest, late charges, real estate taxes, hazard insurance premiums, and mortgage insurance premiums as these sums became due. Plaintiffs Note was secured by a Mortgage on the Property located at 4506 CARLISLE ROAD, GARDNERS, PA 17324. The Mortgage indicates that in the event a default in the mortgage, Plaintiff may advance any necessary sums, including taxes, insurance, and other items, in order to protect the security of the Mortgage. In the instant case, Defendants defaulted under the Mortgage by failing to tender numerous, promised monthly mortgage payments. Accordingly, after it was clear that the default would not be cured, Plaintiff commenced the instant mortgage foreclosure action. Judgment was subsequently entered by the Court, and the Property is currently scheduled for Sheriffs Sale. Because of the excessive period of time between the initiation of the mortgage foreclosure action, the entry of judgment and the Sheriffs Sale date, damages as previously assessed are outdated and need to be adjusted to include current interest, real estate taxes, insurance premiums, costs of collection, and other expenses which Plaintiff has been obligated to pay under the Mortgage in order to protect its interests. It is also appropriate to give Defendants credit for monthly payments tendered through bankruptcy, if any. H. LEGAL ARGUMENT TO AMEND PLAINTIFF'S IN REM JUDGMENT It is settled law in Pennsylvania that the Court may exercise its equitable powers to control the enforcement of a judgment and to grant any relief until that judgment is satisfied. 20 P.L.E., Judgments § 191. Stephenson v. Butts, 187 Pa.Super. 55, 59, 142 A.2d 319, 321 (1958). Chase Home Mortgage Corporation of the Southwest v. Good, 537 A.2d 22, 24 (Pa.Super. 1988). The Pennsylvania Superior Court has repeatedly cited the right of a foreclosing creditor to amend its judgment prior to the Sheriffs sale. Nationsbanc Mortgage Corp. v. Grillo, 827 A.2d 489 (Pa.Super. 2003). Morgan Guaranty Trust Co. ofN.Y. vs. Mowl, 705 A.2d 923 (Pa. Super. 1998). Union National Bank of Pittsburgh v. Ciongoli, 407 Pa.Super. 171, 595 A.2d 179 (1991). The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania recognized in Landau v. Western Pa. Nat. Bank 445 Pa. 117, 282 A.2d 335 (1971), that the debt owed on a Mortgage is subject to change and, in fact, can be expected to change from day to day because the bank must advance sums in order to protect its collateral. Because a Mortgage lien is not extinguished until the debt is paid, Plaintiff must protect its collateral up until the date of sale. Beckman v. Altoona Trust Co., 332 Pa. 545, 2 A.2d 826 (1939). Because a judgment in mortgage foreclosure is strictly in rem, it is critical that the judgment reflect those amounts expended by the Plaintiff in protecting the property. Meco Reality Company v. Burns, 414 Pa. 495, 200 A.2d 335 (1971). Plaintiff submits that if it goes to sale without the requested amended judgment, and if there is competitive bidding for the Property, Plaintiff will suffer a significant loss in that it would not be able to recoup monies it advanced to protect its interests. Conversely, amending the in rem judgment will not be detrimental to Defendants as it imputes no personal liability. In B.C.Y. v. Bukovich, the Pennsylvania Superior Court reiterated its long standing rule that a Court has the inherent power to correct a judgment to conform to the facts of a case. 257 Pa. Super. 157, 390 A.2d 276 (1978). In the within case, the amount of the original judgment does not adequately reflect the additional sums due on the Mortgage due to Defendants' failure to tender payments during the foreclosure proceeding and the advances made by the mortgage company. The Mortgage plainly requires the mortgagors to tender to the mortgagee monthly payments of principal and interest until the Promissory Note accompanying the Mortgage is paid in full. The mortgagors are also required to remit to the mortgagee sufficient sums to pay monthly mortgage insurance premiums, fire insurance premiums, taxes and other assessments relating to the Property. The mortgagors have breached the terms of the Mortgage, and Plaintiff has been forced to incur significant unjust financial losses on this loan. III. THE FORECLOSURE JUDGMENT IS IN REM ONLY The within case is a mortgage foreclosure action, the sole purpose of which is to take the mortgaged property to Sheriffs Sale. Pennsylvania law makes clear that an action in mortgage foreclosure is strictly in rem and does not include any personal liability. Newtown Village Partnership v. Kimmel, 424 Pa. Super 53, 55, 621 A.2d 1036, 1037 (1993). Signal Consumer Discount Company v. Babuscio, 257 Pa. Super 101, 109, 390 A.2d 266, 270 (1978). Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1141(a). However, Pennsylvania law requires that the foreclosure action demand judgment for the amount due. Pa.R.C.P. 1147(6). The purpose of the dollar amount in the in rem judgment is for bidding at the Sheriffs Sale. In the event that a third party real estate speculator were to bid on the mortgaged property at the Sheriffs Sale and become the successful purchaser, Plaintiff would receive the amount of the in rem judgment from the Sheriff. IV. INTEREST The Mortgage clearly requires that the Defendants shall promptly pay when due the principal and interest due on the outstanding debt. In addition, the Note specifies the rate of interest to be charged until the debt is paid in full or otherwise satisfied. Specifically, interest from 30 days prior to the date of default through the date of the impending Sheriff s sale has been requested. V. TAXES AND INSURANCE If Plaintiff had not advanced monies for taxes and insurance throughout the foreclosure proceeding, Plaintiff would have risked loss of its collateral. If the Property were sold at a tax sale, Plaintiffs interest very well may be divested, and Plaintiff would sustain a complete loss on the outstanding balance due on the loan. If the Property were damaged in a fire, Plaintiff would not be able to obtain insurance proceeds to restore the Property if it did not pay the insurance premiums. Most importantly, the Mortgage specifically provides that the mortgagee may advance the monies for taxes and insurance and charge these payments against the escrow account. Plaintiff is simply seeking to have the Court enforce the terms of the Mortgage. VI. ATTORNEY'S FEES The amount of attorney's fees requested in the Motion to Reassess Damages is in accordance with the loan documents and Pennsylvania law. Pennsylvania Courts have long and repeatedly concluded that a request of five percent of the outstanding principal balance is reasonable and enforceable as an attorney's fee. Robinson v. Loomis, 51 Pa. 78 (1865); First Federal Savings and Loan Association v. Street Road Shopping Center, 68 D&C 2d 751, 755 (1974). In Federal Land Bank of Baltimore v. Fetner, the Superior Court held that an attorney's fee of ten percent of the original mortgage amount is not unconscionable. 410 A.2d 344 (Pa. Super. 1979). Recently, the Superior Court cited Fetner in confirming that an attorney's fee of ten percent included in the judgment in mortgage foreclosure action was reasonable. Citicorp v. Morrisville Hampton Realty, 662 A.2d 1120 (Pa. Super. 1995). Importantly, Plaintiff recognizes this Honorable Court's equitable authority to set attorney's fees and costs as it deems reasonable. VII. CONCLUSION Therefore, Plaintiff respectfully submits that if the enforcement of its rights is delayed by legal proceedings, and such delays require the mortgagee to expend additional sums provided for by the Mortgage, then the expenses necessarily become part of the mortgagee's lien and should be included in the judgment. Plaintiff respectfully requests that this Honorable Court grant its Motion to Reassess Damages. Plaintiff submits that it has acted in good faith in maintaining the Property in accordance with the Mortgage, and has relied on terms of the Mortgage with the understanding that it would recover the monies it expended to protect its collateral. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully requests that this Honorable Court amend the judgment as requested. DATE: A Q Tmniel?y hmieg, LLP By: M.

The name(s) and last known address(es) of the Defendant(s) are: THOMAS CONN LESTER MILLER 4506 CARLISLE ROAD GARDNERS, PA 17324 who is/are the mortgagor(s) and/or real owner(s) of the property hereinafter described. 3. On 02/07/2007 mortgagor(s) made, executed, and delivered a mortgage upon the premises hereinafter described to MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION SYSTEMS, INC., AS A NOMINEE FOR AEGIS WHOLESALE CORPORATION which mortgage is recorded in the Office of the Recorder of CUMBERLAND County, in Book: 1982, Page: 1083. PLAINTIFF is now the legal owner of the mortgage and is in the process of formalizing an assignment of same. The mortgage and assignment(s), if any, are matters of public record and are incorporated herein by reference in accordance with Pa.R.C.P. 1019(g); which Rule relieves the Plaintiff from its obligations to attach documents to pleadings if those documents are of public record. 4. The premises subject to said mortgage is described as attached. 5. The mortgage is in default because monthly payments of principal and interest upon said mortgage due 10/01/2007 and each month thereafter are due and unpaid, and by the terms of said mortgage, upon failure of mortgagor to make such payments after a date specified by written notice sent to Mortgagor, the entire principal balance and all interest due thereon are collectible forthwith. File #: 173292 6. The following amounts are due on the mortgage: Principal Balance $79,999.17 Interest $2,957.28 09/01/2007 through 03/01/2008 (Per Diem $16.16) Attorney's Fees $1,250.00 Cumulative Late Charges $138.80 02/07/2007 to 03/01/2008 Cost of Suit and Title Search 750.00 Subtotal $85,095.25 Escrow Credit $0.00 Deficit $417.90 Subtotal $417.90 TOTAL $85,513.15 7 If the mortgage is reinstated prior to a Sheriffs Sale, the attorney's fee set forth above may be less than the amount demanded based on work actually performed. The attorney's fees requested are in conformity with the mortgage and Pennsylvania law. Plaintiff reserves its right to collect attorney's fees up to 5% of the remaining principal balance in the event the property is sold to a third party purchaser at Sheriffs Sale, or if the complexity of the action requires additional fees in excess of the amount demanded in the Action. Plaintiff is not seeking a judgment of personal liability (or an in personam judgment) against the Defendant(s) in the Action; however, Plaintiff reserves its right to bring a separate Action to establish that right, if such right exists. If Defendant(s) has/have received a discharge of personal liability in a bankruptcy proceeding, this Action of Mortgage Foreclosure is in no way an attempt to reestablish such personal liability discharged in bankruptcy, but only to foreclose the mortgage and sell the mortgaged premises pursuant to Pennsylvania Law. File #: 173292 9. Notice of Intention to Foreclose as set forth in Act 6 of 1974, Notice of Homeowner's Emergency Assistance Program pursuant to Act 91 of 1983, as amended in 1998, and/or Notice of Default as required by the mortgage document, as applicable, have been sent to the Defendant(s) on the date(s) set forth thereon, and the temporary stay as provided by said notice has terminated because Defendant(s) has/have failed to meet with the Plaintiff or an authorized consumer credit counseling agency, or has/have been denied assistance by the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency. 10. This action does not come under Act 6 of 1974 because the original mortgage amount exceeds $50,000. WHEREFORE, PLAINTIFF demands an in rem Judgment against the Defendant(s) in the sum of $85,513.15, together with interest from 03/01/2008 at the rate of $16.16 per diem to the date of Judgment, and other costs and charges collectible under the mortgage and for the foreclosure and sale of the mortgaged property. 4PHE N HALLINAN C I G, LLP By. r RANCIS S.

THOMAS CONN LESTER MILLER Court of Common Pleas Civil Division CUMBERLAND County No. 08-1449 CIVIL TERM Defendants PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO REASSESS DAMAGES Plaintiff, by its Attorney, Michele M. Bradford, Esquire, moves the Court to direct the Prothonotary to amend the judgment in this matter, and in support thereof avers the following: 1. Plaintiff commenced this foreclosure action by filing a Complaint on March 4, 2008, a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto, made part hereof, and marked as Exhibit "A" 2. Judgment was entered on May 7, 2008 in the amount of $86,579.71. A true and correct copy of the praecipe for judgment is attached hereto, made part hereof, and marked as Exhibit "B". 3. Pursuant to Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1037(b)(1), a default judgment containing a dollar amount must be entered for the amount claimed in the complaint and any item which can be calculated from the complaint, i.e. bringing the interest current. However, new items cannot be added at the time of entry of the judgment. 4. A Sheriffs Sale of the mortgaged property at 4506 CARLISLE ROAD, GARDNERS, PA 17324 (hereinafter the "Property") was postponed or stayed for the following reason: a.) The Defendants filed a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy at Docket Number 1:08-03184 on September 2, 2008. The Bankruptcy was dismissed by order of court dated January 9, 2009. A true and correct copy of the Bankruptcy Court Order is attached hereto, made part hereof, and marked as Exhibit "C". The Property is listed for Sheriffs Sale on June 10, 2009. 6. Additional sums have been incurred or expended on Defendants' behalf since the Complaint was filed and Defendants have been given credit for any payments that have been made since the judgment. The amount of damages should now read as follows: Principal Balance $79,999.17 Interest Through June 10, 2009 $10,470.34 Per Diem $16.16 Late Charges $555.20 Legal fees $1,300.00 Cost of Suit and Title $1,448.00 Sheriffs Sale Costs $1,015.19 Property Inspections/ Property Preservation $294.00 Appraisal/Brokers Price Opinion $168.00 Mortgage Insurance Premium / $0.00 Private Mortgage Insurance Non Sufficient Funds Charge $0.00 Suspense/Misc. Credits ($0.00) Escrow Deficit $3,105.03 TOTAL $98,354.93 7. The judgment formerly entered is insufficient to satisfy the amounts due on the Mortgage. 8. Under the terms of the Mortgage and Pennsylvania law, Plaintiff is entitled to inclusion of the figures set forth above in the amount of judgment against the Defendants. 9. Plaintiff's foreclosure judgment is in rem only and does not include personal liability, as addressed in Plaintiff's attached brief. 10. In accordance with Cumberland County Local Rule 208.3(9), Plaintiff sent a copy of its proposed Motion to Reassess Damages and Order to the Defendant on April 2, 2009 and requested the Defendants' Concurrence. Plaintiff did not receive any response from the Defendants. A true and correct copy of Plaintiff's letter pursuant to Local Rule 208.3(9) and certification of mailing are attached hereto, made part hereof, and marked as Exhibit "D". 11. No judge has previously entered a ruling in this case. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully requests that this Honorable Court amend the judgment as requested. Phelan Hallinan & Schmieg, LLP DATE:!

No. 69849 One Penn Center, Suite 1400 1617 John F. Kennedy Boulevard Philadelphia, PA 19103-1814 (215) 563-7000 CITIMORTGAGE, INC. Court of Common Pleas Plaintiff V. THOMAS CONN LESTER MILLER Civil Division CUMBERLAND County No. 08-1449 CIVIL TERM Defendants MEMORANDUM OF LAW IN SUPPORT OF PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO REASSESS DAMAGES 1. BACKGROUND OF CASE THOMAS CONN and LESTER MILLER executed a Promissory Note agreeing to pay principal, interest, late charges, real estate taxes, hazard insurance premiums, and mortgage insurance premiums as these sums became due. Plaintiffs Note was secured by a Mortgage on the Property located at 4506 CARLISLE ROAD, GARDNERS, PA 17324. The Mortgage indicates that in the event a default in the mortgage, Plaintiff may advance any necessary sums, including taxes, insurance, and other items, in order to protect the security of the Mortgage. In the instant case, Defendants defaulted under the Mortgage by failing to tender numerous, promised monthly mortgage payments. Accordingly, after it was clear that the default would not be cured, Plaintiff commenced the instant mortgage foreclosure action. Judgment was subsequently entered by the Court, and the Property is currently scheduled for Sheriffs Sale. Because of the excessive period of time between the initiation of the mortgage foreclosure action, the entry of judgment and the Sheriffs Sale date, damages as previously assessed are outdated and need to be adjusted to include current interest, real estate taxes, insurance premiums, costs of collection, and other expenses which Plaintiff has been obligated to pay under the Mortgage in order to protect its interests. It is also appropriate to give Defendants credit for monthly payments tendered through bankruptcy, if any. II. LEGAL ARGUMENT TO AMEND PLAINTIFF'S IN REM JUDGMENT It is settled law in Pennsylvania that the Court may exercise its equitable powers to control the enforcement of a judgment and to grant any relief until that judgment is satisfied. 20 P.L.E., Judgments § 191. Stephenson v. Butts, 187 Pa.Super. 55, 59, 142 A.2d 319, 321 (1958). Chase Home Mortgage Corporation of the Southwest v. Good, 537 A.2d 22, 24 (Pa.Super. 1988). The Pennsylvania Superior Court has repeatedly cited the right of a foreclosing creditor to amend its judgment prior to the Sheriffs sale. Nationsbanc Mortgage Corp. v. Grillo, 827 A.2d 489 (Pa.Super. 2003). Morgan Guaranty Trust Co. of N.Y. v. Mowl, 705 A.2d 923 (Pa. Super. 1998). Union National Bank of Pittsburgh v. Cion oli, 407 Pa.Super. 171, 595 A.2d 179 (1991). The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania recognized in Landau v. Western Pa. Nat. Bank, 445 Pa. 117, 282 A.2d 335 (1971), that the debt owed on a Mortgage is subject to change and, in fact, can be expected to change from day to day because the bank must advance sums in order to protect its collateral. Because a Mortgage lien is not extinguished until the debt is paid, Plaintiff must protect its collateral up until the date of sale. Beckman v. Altoona Trust Co., 332 Pa. 545, 2 A.2d 826 (1939). Because a judgment in mortgage foreclosure is strictly in rem, it is critical that the judgment reflect those amounts expended by the Plaintiff in protecting the property. Meco Reality Company v. Burns, 414 Pa. 495, 200 A.2d 335 (1971). Plaintiff submits that if it goes to sale without the requested amended judgment, and if there is competitive bidding for the Property, Plaintiff will suffer a significant loss in that it would not be able to recoup monies it advanced to protect its interests. Conversely, amending the in rem judgment will not be detrimental to Defendants as it imputes no personal liability. In B.C.Y. v. Bukovich, the Pennsylvania Superior Court reiterated its long standing rule that a Court has the inherent power to correct a judgment to conform to the facts of a case. 257 Pa. Super. 157, 390 A.2d 276 (1978). In the within case, the amount of the original judgment does not adequately reflect the additional sums due on the Mortgage due to Defendants' failure to tender payments during the foreclosure proceeding and the advances made by the mortgage company. The Mortgage plainly requires the mortgagors to tender to the mortgagee monthly payments of principal and interest until the Promissory Note accompanying the Mortgage is paid in full. The mortgagors are also required to remit to the mortgagee sufficient sums to pay monthly mortgage insurance premiums, fire insurance premiums, taxes and other assessments relating to the Property. The mortgagors have breached the terms of the Mortgage, and Plaintiff has been forced to incur significant unjust financial losses on this loan. III. THE FORECLOSURE JUDGMENT IS IN REM ONLY The within case is a mortgage foreclosure action, the sole purpose of which is to take the mortgaged property to Sheriffs Sale. Pennsylvania law makes clear that an action in mortgage foreclosure is strictly in rem and does not include any personal liability. Newtown Village Partnership v. Kimmel, 424 Pa. Super 53, 55, 621 A.2d 1036, 1037 (1993). Signal Consumer Discount Company v. Babuscio, 257 Pa. Super 101, 109, 390 A.2d 266, 270 (1978). Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1141(a). However, Pennsylvania law requires that the foreclosure action demand judgment for the amount due. Pa.R.C.P. 1147(6). The purpose of the dollar amount in the in rem judgment is for bidding at the Sheriff s Sale. In the event that a third party real estate speculator were to bid on the mortgaged property at the Sheriffs Sale and become the successful purchaser, Plaintiff would receive the amount of the in rem judgment from the Sheriff. IV. INTEREST The Mortgage clearly requires that the Defendants shall promptly pay when due the principal and interest due on the outstanding debt. In addition, the Note specifies the rate of interest to be charged until the debt is paid in full or otherwise satisfied. Specifically, interest from 30 days prior to the date of default through the date of the impending Sheriff s sale has been requested. V. TAXES AND INSURANCE If Plaintiff had not advanced monies for taxes and insurance throughout the foreclosure proceeding, Plaintiff would have risked loss of its collateral. If the Property were sold at a tax sale, Plaintiffs interest very well may be divested, and Plaintiff would sustain a complete loss on the outstanding balance due on the loan. If the Property were damaged in a fire, Plaintiff would not be able to obtain insurance proceeds to restore the Property if it did not pay the insurance premiums. Most importantly, the Mortgage specifically provides that the mortgagee may advance the monies for taxes and insurance and charge these payments against the escrow account. Plaintiff is simply seeking to have the Court enforce the terms of the Mortgage. VI. ATTORNEY'S FEES The amount of attorney's fees requested in the Motion to Reassess Damages is in accordance with the loan documents and Pennsylvania law. Pennsylvania Courts have long and repeatedly concluded that a request of five percent of the outstanding principal balance is reasonable and enforceable as an attorney's fee. Robinson v. Loomis, 51 Pa. 78 (1865); First Federal Savings an d Loan Association v. Street Road Shopping Center, 68 D&C 2d 751, 755 (1974). In Federal Land Bank of Baltimore v. Fetner, the Superior Court held that an attorney's fee of ten percent of the original mortgage amount is not unconscionable. 410 A.2d 344 (Pa. Super. 1979). Recently, the Superior Court cited Fetner in confirming that an attorney's fee of ten percent included in the judgment in mortgage foreclosure action was reasonable. Citicorp v. Morrisville Hampton Realty, 662 A.2d 1120 (Pa. Super. 1995). Importantly, Plaintiff recognizes this Honorable Court's equitable authority to set attorney's fees and costs as it deems reasonable. VII. CONCLUSION Therefore, Plaintiff respectfully submits that if the enforcement of its rights is delayed by legal proceedings, and such delays require the mortgagee to expend additional sums provided for by the Mortgage, then the expenses necessarily become part of the mortgagee's lien and should be included in the judgment. Plaintiff respectfully requests that this Honorable Court grant its Motion to Reassess Damages. Plaintiff submits that it has acted in good faith in maintaining the Property in accordance with the Mortgage, and has relied on terms of the Mortgage with the understanding that it would recover the monies it expended to protect its collateral. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully requests that this Honorable Court amend the judgment as requested. DATE: 4? z l °f Phelan Hallinan & Schmieg, LLP By: Michele M.

The name(s) and last known address(es) of the Defendant(s) are: THOMAS CONN LESTER MILLER 4506 CARLISLE ROAD GARDNERS, PA 17324 who is/are the mortgagor(s) and/or real owner(s) of the property hereinafter described. 3. On 02/07/2007 mortgagor(s) made, executed, and delivered a mortgage upon the premises hereinafter described to MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION SYSTEMS, INC., AS A NOMINEE FOR AEGIS WHOLESALE CORPORATION which mortgage is recorded in the Office of the Recorder of CUMBERLAND County, in Book: 1982, Page: 1083. PLAINTIFF is now the legal owner of the mortgage and is in the process of formalizing an assignment of same. The mortgage and assignment(s), if any, are matters of public record and are incorporated herein by reference in accordance with Pa.R.C.P. 1019(g); which Rule relieves the Plaintiff from its obligations to attach documents to pleadings if those documents are of public record. 4. The premises subject to said mortgage is described as attached. 5. The mortgage is in default because monthly payments of principal and interest upon said mortgage due 10/0l /2007 and each month thereafter are due and unpaid, and by the terms of said mortgage, upon failure of mortgagor to make such payments after a date specified by written notice sent to Mortgagor, the entire principal balance and all interest due thereon are collectible forthwith. File #: 173292 6. The following amounts are due on the mortgage: Principal Balance $79,999.17 Interest $2,957.28 09/01/2007 through 03/01/2008 (Per Diem $16.16) Attorney's Fees $1,250.00 Cumulative Late Charges $138.80 02/07/2007 to 03/01/2008 Cost of Suit and Title Search 750.00 Subtotal $85,095.25 Escrow Credit $0.00 Deficit $417 90 Subtotal . $417.90 TOTAL $85,513.15 7. If the mortgage is reinstated prior to a Sheriffs Sale, the attorney's fee set forth above may be less than the amount demanded based on work actually performed. The attorney's fees requested are in conformity with the mortgage and Pennsylvania law. Plaintiff reserves its right to collect attorney's fees up to 5% of the remaining principal balance in the event the property is sold to a third party purchaser at Sheriffs Sale, or if the complexity of the action requires additional fees in excess of the amount demanded in the Action. Plaintiff is not seeking a judgment of personal liability (or an in personam judgment) against the Defendant(s) in the Action; however, Plaintiff reserves its right to bring a separate Action to establish that right, if such right exists. If Defendant(s) has/have received a discharge of personal liability in a bankruptcy proceeding, this Action of Mortgage Foreclosure is in no way an attempt to reestablish such personal liability discharged in bankruptcy, but only to foreclose the mortgage and sell the mortgaged premises pursuant to Pennsylvania Law. File #: 173292 9. Notice of Intention to Foreclose as set forth in Act 6 of 1974, Notice of Homeowner's Emergency Assistance Program pursuant to Act 91 of 1983, as amended in 1998, and/or Notice of Default as required by the mortgage document, as applicable, have been sent to the Defendant(s) on the date(s) set forth thereon, and the temporary stay as provided by said notice has terminated because Defendant(s) has/have failed to meet with the Plaintiff or an authorized consumer credit counseling agency, or has/have been denied assistance by the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency. 10. This action does not come under Act 6 of 1974 because the original mortgage amount exceeds $50,000. WHEREFORE, PLAINTIFF demands an in rem Judgment against the Defendant(s) in the sum of $85,513.15, together with interest from 03/01/2008 at the rate of $16.16 per diem to the date of Judgment, and other costs and charges collectible under the mortgage and for the foreclosure and sale of the mortgaged property. 3PHE N HALLINAN C I , LLP By: 47F-XNCIS S.
