COMPLAINT IN CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT (MONEY JUDGMENT)
NOW COME Plaintiffs, Mary Holder Holtzman, Thomas Michael Holder, Maureen
H. Ryan, Mariclaire H. Lombard, Mary Katherine Holder, Mary Christine Holder, George
Hugh Holder, and Walter Shaull Holder ("Plaintiffs" or "Sellers"), by their undersigned
attorneys, Rhoads & Sinon LLP, and file the within Complaint in Confession of Judgment
(Money Judgment), stating as follows:
1. Plaintiffs, all adult individuals and having an address c/o Hershey Creamery
Company, Post Office Box 1821, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17105, awn tenant-in-common
interests in those certain parcels of real property known as Tract 1, Tract 3 and the
"Campground" (collectively, the "Real Property"), as more particularly described in the
684 ] 65. ]
Deeds, as defined in Paragraph 4 below, located on East Lisburn Road and Klinedinst Road
in Upper Allen Township, Cumberland County, Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania.
2. Defendant Empire Homes, LLC ("Empire" or "Defendant Empire") is a
Limited Liability Company organized under the laws of the State of Maryland with an
address of 9145 Guilford Road, Suite 100A, Columbia, Maryland, 21046.
3. Defendant Shaun's Choice Development, LLC ("Shaun's" or "Defendant
Shaun's") is a Limited Liability Company organized under the laws of the State of
Maryland with an address of 9145 Guilford Road, Suite 100A, Columbia, Maryland,
21046. (Defendant Empire and Defendant Shaun's are collectively referred to as
"Defendants" or "Purchasers").
4. On July 24, 2007, Plaintiffs and Defendants entered into an Amended and
Restated Real Estate Sales Contract ("Sales Contract") wherein Plaintiffs agreed to sell
and Defendants agreed to purchase the Real Property as more particularly identified in
the deeds recorded in the Office of the Recorder of Deeds in and for Cumberland County
in Book 263, Page 1090 and Book 264, Page 2297 (the "Deeds"). The Sales Contract is
attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and the Deeds are attached hereto as Exhibit "B" and both
Exhibits are incorporated herein by reference.
5. The Purchase Price for the Real Property under the Sales Contract was
$4,700,000.00 and Closing was to occur on or before December 21, 2007. [Sales
Contract, ¶¶ 2 & 7] (All capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the same
meaning as set forth in the Sales Contract.)
2
0
6. Pursuant to Paragraph 3 of the Sales Agreement, under previous
agreements between the parties, Defendants made anon-refundable Deposit in the
amount of $500,000 to be held by an Escrow Agent and applied to the Purchase Price at
Closing. However, pursuant to the Sales Contract, at all times, the Escrow Agent was
permitted to release the Deposit to Plaintiffs. [Sales Contract, ¶ 3(a)]
7. Pursuant to Paragraph 8 of the Sales Contract, as a Condition of Closing,
Defendants were required to obtain and deliver to Plaintiffs an absolute and firm
commitment letter from a Lender acceptable to Plaintiffs indicating that the Lender was
firmly committed to provide Defendants with financing in the amount of $3,055,000
(Commitment Letter") representing b5% of the total Purchase Price by no later than
August 30, 2007. [Sales Contract, P 8(a)]
8. To date, Defendants have failed to obtain and to deliver the required
Commitment Letter to Plaintiffs, failed to satisfy the other Conditions of Closing
provided for in the Sales Contract and have failed to settle under the Sales Contract.
9. Defendants' failure to obtain and deliver to Plaintiffs the Commitment
Letter as required in Paragraph 8(a) is considered a failure to satisfy a Condition of the
Sales Contract, and thus, an immediate breach and default under the terms of Paragraph
10(a) of the Sales Contract.
10. Thus, beginning on August 30, 2007 and continuing to date, Defendants
are in default of the terms of the Sales Contract.
11. From August 30, 2007 to date, Plaintiffs have been working with the
Defendants in an effort to negotiate terms of a new agreement to permit the Defendants to
3
purchase the Real Property and/or to obtain payment of the Default Amount (as defined
below), however, such negotiations have not been successful.
12. Pursuant to Paragraph 10(a) of the Sales Contract, in the event of a default
thereunder for the failure to satisfy a Condition, Plaintiffs, after providing written notice
to Defendants specifying the nature of the default, were entitled to declare the Sales
Contract immediately terminated and retain the Deposit as liquidated damages and
Defendants immediately were obligated to pay to Plaintiffs an additional amount of
$500,000 as liquidated damages ("Default Amount"). [Sales Contract, ¶ 10(a)]
13. Accordingly, on August 30, 2007, Plaintiffs, through their counsel,
provided written notice of the default to Defendants declaring, in relevant part, 1) that the
Sales Contract was terminated effective immediately, 2) that Plaintiffs would
immediately instruct the Escrow Agent to release the Deposit to Plaintiffs and 3) that the
Default Amount was immediately due and payable ("Default Notice"). A true and
correct copy of the Default Notice is attached hereto as Exhibit "C" and incorporated
herein by reference.
14. Further, Paragraph 10(a) provides that in the event Defendants fail to pay
Plaintiffs the Default Amount within five (5) days of the written demand thereof, the
Plaintiffs are permitted to confess judgment against the Defendants for the full amount of
the Default Amount pursuant to the confession of judgment and warrant of attorney
provisions contained in the Sales Agreement, which empower any attorney of any court
of record to appear for and confess judgment in favor of Plaintiffs and against the
Defendants for the full Default Amount plus reasonable attorneys fees and court costs.
[Sales Contract, ¶10(a)]
4
15. To date, Defendants have failed to pay to Plaintiffs the Default Amount
due pursuant to the terms of the Sales Contract, therefore, Plaintiffs are confessing
Judgment against Defendants.
16. Judgment is not being entered by confession against a natural person in
connection with a consumer credit transaction.
17. The Sales Contract has not been assigned.
18. Judgment has not been entered previously on the warrants of attorney
contained in the Sales Contract in any jurisdiction.
19. Pursuant to the Confession of Judgment section of Paragraph 10(a) of the
Sales Contract, Plaintiffs are entitled to receive all costs of suit and reasonable attorneys'
fees for collection.
20• As of March 20, 2008, the amount of the judgment to be entered under the
Sales Contract is itemized as follows:
Default Amount: $500,000.00
~' $ -3-}-6~-
Reasonable Attorneys' Fees: $ 5,000.00
Total : $ 5D5 0 00.00

WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs, Mary Holder Holtzman, Thomas Michael Holder,
Maureen H. Ryan, Mariclaire H. Lombard, Mary Katherine Holder, Mary Christine Holder,
George Hugh Holder, and Walter Shaull Holder, demand judgment in their favor against
Defendants Empire Homes, LLC and Shaun's Choice Development, LLC in the amount
of $500,000.00, plus costs of collection, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees; and such other charges as authorized by the warrants contained in the
Sales Contract.

WHEREAS, although the Original Agreement has expired pursuant to the terms and
conditions of the Sixth Addendum, as amended by letter agreement, the Seller has agreed to sell

Remaining Property to the Purchaser, all as more particularly provided for below.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants of Seller and Purchaser and
for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which Seller
acknowledges, Seller and Purchaser agree as follows:
1. AGREEMENT OF SALE AND PURCHASE
It is understood and agreed that Seller is currently the owner of all the Remaining Property,
comprised of Tract 1, Tract 3 and the "Campground" as more particularly identified in the Deeds,
and Seller agrees to sell and convey to Purchaser and Purchaser agrees to purchase from Seller,
under the terms and conditions set forth below, the Remaining Property, together with any and all
improvements located upon the Remaining Property and any and all fixtures, machinery,
equipment, personalty, boats, appurtenances, rights, privileges and easements benefiting or
pertaining to the Remaining Property or said improvements (collectively, the "Property").
2. PURCHASE PRICE
The total purchase price for the Property (the "Purchase Price") shall be Four Million
Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($4,700,000.00) Dollars.
3. DEPOSIT -PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE.
The Purchase Price shall he paid as follows:
(a) It is agreed and acknowledged that pursuant to the terms and conditions
of the Original Agreement and the various Addendums, the Purchaser previously
deposited with the Escrow Agent, as defined below, Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($500,000) (the "Deposit"), which Deposit was previously deemed and shall continue
to be non-refundable (except for a default by the Seller). Although the Original
Agreement has expired and the Seller could retain the Deposit, the Seller has agreed to
permit the Deposit to be applied to the Purchase Price at Closing (as defined below).
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary and as previously provided
for, the Escrow Agent was and is still permitted to release the Deposit to the Seller at
anytime.
-2-
(b) On the date of Closing, the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller the Purchase
Price, less: (i) the Deposit, (ii) any credits permitted by this Contract, plus or minus, as the
case may be, and (iii) the net amount of settlement adjustments and apportionments
between Purchaser and Seller as provided for in this Contract, by means of cashier's check,
wire transfer or other cash equivalent.
It is agreed and acknowledged that Rhoads & Sinon LLP did and shall continue to serve as the
Escrow Agent (the "Escrow Agent").
4. TITLE
(a) Seller shall convey Purchaser, by customary special warranty deed, absolute
fee simple title to the Property at the time of Closing, utilizing the same description in
which the Seller obtained title to the Property (the "Deed"), free of all monetary liens
and encumbrances caused or resulting from any actions or inactions of the Seller,
subject, however, to any and all existing easements, rights-of--way and other restrictions,
if any, affecting the Property. It is agreed and acknowledged by the parties hereto that
under the Original Agreement the Purchaser was given the opportunity to review title to
the Property and make any objections which it had to the Property. The time period in
which the Purchaser was permitted to object to title previously expired and therefore
Purchaser has already reviewed title to the Property. Accordingly, the Purchaser accepts
title to the Property in its current state (provided that the Seller has not caused any
adverse change to the title since the expiration of the original title examination period
provided for in the Original Agreement) and shall have no right to terminate or fail to
close under this Contract as a result of any issues with title to the Property.
(b) Upon request by Purchaser, Seller shall, at Closing, execute such affidavits,
indemnities, and other similar type instruments, in forms reasonably acceptable to Seller,
as are required by Purchaser's title insurance company for the elimination of any standard
or printed exceptions in Purchaser's final policy of title insurance or for tax reporting
purposes and shall deliver reasonable evidence of Seller's authority to consummate this
transaction.
5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER
Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser that the following are true as of the date of
this Contract and will continue to be true as of the date of Closing:
(a) Seller has full right, power and authority to enter into and carry out and
perform this Contract, without obtaining any further approvals or consents.
(b) Seller has not made any commitments or representations to the
applicable governmental authorities, any adjoining or surrounding property owners, any
civic association, any utility, or any other person or entity which would in any manner
be binding upon Purchaser or interfere with or make more costly Purchaser's
development and improvement of the Property. Seller has no knowledge of any such
commitments or representations made by any of Seller's predecessors in title.
-3-
(c) Seller is not a "foreign person" within the .meaning of the Foreign
Investment in Real Property Act, as amended.
6. COVENANTS OF SELLER
Seller covenants with Purchaser that between the date of this Contract and Closing:
(a) Seller shall keep any existing mortgage(s) against the Property current
and not in default and pay taxes and other public charges against the Property so as to
avoid forfeiture of Purchaser's rights under this Contract.
(b) Seller shall p r o m p t 1 y advise Purchaser in writing of any facts coming to
Seller's attention indicating the inaccuracy or any of the representations and warranties
contained in Paragraph 5 of this Contract and shall promptly give to Purchaser copies of
any written notices which Seller receives relating to the Property.
(c) Seller shall not alter or permit to be altered the state of title to the
Property or seek any zoning changes or other governmental approvals with respect to the
Property without Purchaser's prior written approval (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld).
7. TIME AND PLACE OF CLOSIlVG.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Contract, specifically including,
without limitation, Paragraph 8 below, Closing under this Contract shall be held on or before
December 21, 2007 ("Closing").
(b) Closing is to be held at the office of the Seller's attorney or at the
Seller's office, as designated by Seller and Purchaser, at a mutually convenient time and
place; provided, however, if the parties cannot agree on a date, time and location,
Closing shall occur on December 21, 2007 at 10:00 A.M. in the office of the Seller.
8. CONDITIONS OF CLOSING.
The obligation of the Seller to settle on the conveyance of the Property at Closing shall
be subject to the conditions provided for below (the "Conditions") being met by the Buyer
within the time frames provided for, the determination as to whether any such Condition has
been fully satisfied shall be at the sole and absolute discretion of the Seller. It is specifically
agreed and acknowledged that the Conditions provided are for the sole and absolute benefit of
the Seller, such that in the event the Purchaser fails to satisfy any such Condition when
required, as solely determined by the Seller, the Seller shall have the right to either (i) waive
the satisfaction of such Condition, (ii) extend the date in which such Condition is to be
satisfied or (iii) declare an immediate event of default under this Contract, in which event the
Seller shall be permitted to exercise any and all rights which it has under this Contract as a
result of such Event of Default, all at the complete and absolute election of the Seller. It is
agreed and acknowledged that, if the Purchaser fails to satisfy one of the Conditions, it is the
intent of this paragraph to put the Seller back in the position the Seller would have been at the
expiration of the Original Agreement and to allow the Seller to have the same rights and
remedies it had against the Purchaser if the Seller would have proceeded with its rights under
-4-
the Original Agreement and not entered into this Contract.
(a) The Purchaser shall be required to obtain, no later than August 30, 2007,
an absolute and firm commitment letter from a lending institution (the "Lender")
acceptable to the Seller indicating that the Lender is firmly committed to provide the
Purchaser with financing, on or before the date of Closing, in an amount of no less than
sixty-five percent (65%) of the total Purchase Price of the Property, being a minimum
of Three Million Fifty-Five Thousand Dollars ($3,055,000) (the "Commitment
Letter"). Such commitment shall be based on the current state of the Property
(meaning raw land) and not as it will be developed (meaning subdivided lots). The
terms and conditions of the Commitment Letter shall be subject to the Seller's
approval, which approval shall be in the sole and absolute discretion of the Seller.
Purchaser shall be required to deliver a copy of the Commitment Letters to the Seller
within the time frame provided for above.
(b) As indicated below, the Purchaser has already performed and conducted
various due diligence on the Property and as of the date of this Contract represents and
warrants to the Seller that. it has previously filed with all appropriate entities of Upper
Allen Township a "sketch plan" for the development the Purchaser intends to construct
on the Property. As of the date hereof, the Purchaser has also represented to the Seller
that it is in a position to move forward with submissions to Upper Allen Township {and
any other necessary governmental entity) of all necessary documents and materials to
permit the Purchaser to proceed with development on the Property. Accordingly, the
Purchaser agrees to comply with the "Schedule of Submission" and, subject to
responses received from Federal, Commonwealth and local reviewing authorities,
submit to all necessary governmental authorities the documents, applications, plans and
other materials provided for on Exhibit "A" attached hereto and made a part hereof.
(c} As indicated above, the Purchaser shall be obtaining a Commitment
Letter from the Lender, acceptable to the Seller for the purchase of the Property by
August 30, 2007, in an amount of at least sixty-five percent (65%) of the Purchase
Price. Accordingly, the Purchaser further agrees, on or before December 10, 2007, to
provide the Seller with evidence that it has obtained all necessary financing to permit
the Purchaser to completely perform under this Contract as of the date of Closing and
pay the Seller the total Purchase Price. Any such financing shall be on terms and
conditions approved by the Purchaser, in its sole and absolute discretion, and generally
acceptable to the Seller.
9. DELNERY OF ENGINEER DOCUMENTS. It is agreed and acknowledged
that under the Original Agreement the Purchaser had the right to enter on the Property and
conduct various tests and inspections of the Property. Furthermore, it is agreed and
acknowledged that the Purchaser did conduct various studies and inspections on the Property
and has compiled various engineering documents, specifically including, without limitation,
stormwater studies and investigations such that a stormwater management plan has been
created, geotechnical studies and investigations such that a report has been finalized,
environmental/Phase 1 tests and inspections on the Property, preliminary planning for
subdivision and land development on the Property, traffic studies and other test and
inspections (the "Engineering Documents"). As additional consideration for the Seller
-5-
entering into this Contract, the Purchaser represents and warrants that it has, as of the date
hereof, turned over all Engineering Documents that have been created as of the date hereof
with regard to the Property. Furthermore, the Purchaser agrees and acknowledges that its
obligation to turn over all Engineering Documents shall be a continuing obligation such that
the Purchaser agrees to turn over any and all future Engineering Documents to the Seller which
relate to the Property and/or the development to be completed on the Property within two (2)
days of completion of any such additional Engineering Documents and/or within two (2} days
of Seller's request for additional Engineering Documents, whether or not such Engineering
Documents are completed. Accordingly, the Purchaser agrees to provide Seller with copies of
any and all documents which the Purchaser submits to any governmental authority relating to
the development and in compliance with the "submission schedule" set forth on Exhibit "A".
It is agreed and acknowledged that the intent of this paragraph is that the Seller shall have
copies of all Engineering Documents currently existing or created in the future. Upon delivery
of the Engineering Documents to the Seller, the Purchaser agrees and acknowledges that the
Seller shall have the right to use any and all such Engineering Documents for any purpose and
shall be permitted to distribute such Engineering Documents to any and all parties selected by
the Seller. In the event of an event of default caused by the Purchaser, the Purchaser agrees
and acknowledges that any and all rights that the Purchaser has in and to any of the
Engineering Documents shall immediately and automatically be assigned from the Purchaser
to the Seller such that the Seller shall have all ownership rights in such Engineering
Documents, however, the Seller shall have no obligation to pay any third party for such
Engineering Documents. If requested by Seller, Purchaser shall execute any and all necessary
assignment and assumption documents relating to the ownership of such Engineering
Documents and shall require any third party provider of such Engineering Documents to
acknowledge Seller's ownership in such Engineering Documents and deliver to the Seller
copies (either in hard copies or electronic format) of such Engineering Documents. Finally, it
is agreed and acknowledged that any third party provider of the Engineering Documents can
rely on a letter from the Seller indicating that an event of default has occurred under this
Contract and as such the Seller has all ownership rights and interests in and to the Engineering
Documents.
10. PURCHASER'S or SELLER'S DEFAULT
(a) If Purchaser fails to make full settlement or is in default of this Contract,
provided Seller has sent written notice to Purchaser specifying the nature of the breach or
default and Purchaser fails to cure the specified breach or default within ten (10) days
after receipt of .the notice (except for the Purchaser's failure to settle on the date of
Closing and pay the Purchase Price or the Purchaser's failure to satisfy any of the
Conditions provided for herein on the date required herein, all of which shall be an
immediate breach and default), then the Seller, as its sole right and remedy and in lieu of
all rights and remedies at law or in equity, may declare this Contract immediately
terminated, whereupon the Seller must retain the Deposit (as increased as provided for
below) as agreed to liquidated damages and not as a penalty, and the parties will then be
deemed relieved of all further obligations under this Contract (except as provided in

Re: Amended. and Restated Real Estate Sales Contract
Dear 3eff:
As you know, under paragraph 8 -Conditions of Closing - of the Amended and
Restated Real Estate Sales Contract dated July 24, 2007, by and between the Holder family and
Empire Homes, LLC and Shaun's Choice Development, LLC ("you" or the "Purchaser"), the
Purchaser was required to obtain an absolute and firm commitment letter from a lending
institution committing to provide the Purchaser with financing in an amount of no less than 65%
of the total purchase price of the Property by August 30, 2007. Based on your email of late last
week and since we have not received any communication from you indicating that the
commitment letter has been received, the financing condition has not been met within that time
period. Since the financing commitment has not been obtained and it does not seem likely that
you will be able to obtain the necessary financing any time soon, the Holder family is declaring
an event of default under the Agreement, as permitted by paragraph 8. As you know, the Holder
family was very hopeful that you would be able to successfully settle under the Agreement and I
think you will agree that they have given you every reasonable opportunity to permit you to be
able to settle under the Agreement. The Holder family's decision to declare an event of default
did not come lightly and was only made after it became apparent that you would not be able to
proceed to settlement. As you know, the Holder family has other parties interested in purchasing
the Property and feel that they need to move forward with those interests if the Property is going
to be sold at any time in the near future.
As a result of the declaration of an event of default, the Agreement is now terminated
pursuant to the terms and conditions of paragraph 10 of the Agreement. Under that paragraph,
the Holder family's remedies are limited to include retaining the $500,000 deposit and retaining
all Engineering Documents (as defined in the Agreement). Additionally, the Agreement
obligates you to continue to deliver to the Holder family any additional Engineering Documents
that have been developed. I believed you previously indicated that a preliminary subdivision plan

was about to be filed. You were going to provide us with a copy of that plan by disk. I have not
yet received that disk and would appreciate if you could follow through and have the disk
delivered. Furthermore, at this time, we would request that you provide us with a listing of any
and all pending applications, plans, etc. that you have submitted to the Township. After our
review of those documents, we may need you to either withdraw their submission or assign any
and all rights to those submissions to the Holder family. Finally, under paragraph 10, you are
also required to immediately pay to the Holder family an additional amount equal to $500,000,
which amount is to be part of the Holder family's liquidated damages. Under the Agreement, if
the additional deposit is not paid within five (5) days from the date of this letter, the Holder
family has the right to proceed with obtaining a judgment against both Empire Homes, LLC and
Shaull's Choice Development, LLC for such amount and is permitted to obtain that judgment
through the power of confession of judgment provided for in the Agreement. If the additional
deposit is not received within five (5) days of this notice, the Holder family will proceed with that
additional right.
As I.indicated, the Holder family was hopeful that they would be able to proceed to
settlement with you. Although that did not happen, we wish you the best of luck. Finally, since
you indicated to me in your August 21, 2007 email that Chris Tsein is no longer your in-house
counsel, I did not send him a copy of this letter,
Very truly yours,
