ANDREW W. BARBIN, P.C.

Defendant
COMPLAINT
1. Plaintiff, De Lage Landen Financial Services, Inc. ("DLL") is a Michigan
corporation with a corporate headquarters at 1111 Old Eagle School Road, Wayne,
Chester County, Pennsylvania.
2. DLL in the business, inter alia, of financing leased office equipment.
3. Upon information and belief, Defendant Andrew W. Barbin, P.C.
("Lessee") is a Pennsylvania professional corporation with a last known business
address at 555 Gettysburg Pike, Mechanicsburg, PA 17055.
4. On or about May 30, 2006, Lessee entered into Lease number 24710166
(the "Lease") for various equipment referred to therein. A true and correct copy of the
Lease is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
284856 vl
5. The Lease obligated Lessee to make fifty-eight (58) equal monthly
payments in the minimum amount of $260.38, after which it was required to purchase or
return the leased equipment.
6. Jurisdiction and venue are proper in this County pursuant to the express
terms of the Lease.
COUNTI
BREACH OF CONTRACT
DLL v. Lessee
7. The allegations contained in paragraphs 1 through and including
paragraph 6 are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth.
8. Lessee made thirteen (13) Lease payments; Lessee initially defaulted on
July 15, 2006.
9. Despite its obligation to do so, Lessee failed to pay the balance of the
lease payments during the initial term when due.
10. The failure to make the required monthly payments as they come due
under the Lease is an event of default.
11. As a result of, inter alia, the failure of Lessee to make the required
payments when due, DLL has declared the Lease in default and further declared the
entire balance of the unpaid Lease payments for the initial term immediately due and
payable as permitted by the Lease.
12. The accelerated amount due under the Lease discounted by six percent
(6%) equals $13,276.90.
284856 vI
13. The Lease provides that upon default, monies due thereunder shall bear
interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum from the date of default until
paid.
14. The Lease provides that Lessee shall pay all expenses and attorneys'
fees incurred by DLL in connection with the enforcement of its rights thereunder; DLL
has or will incur a reasonable attorneys' fee of twenty-five percent (25%) of the amount
of the final judgment entered herein, plus costs.
15. Despite repeated demands, Lessee has failed and refused to fulfill his
obligations under the Lease.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff, De Lage Landen Financial Services, Inc., demands
judgment in its favor and against Lessee in the amount of $13,276.90, plus pre-
judgment interest at eighteen per cent (18%) per annum from the dates of default,
costs, attorneys' fees of twenty-five percent (25%) of the amount of the final judgment
entered herein, and such other relief as this Court deems just and proper.

DEFENDANT' ANSWER, NEW MATTER AND COUNTERCLAIM
TO PLAINTIFF'S COMPLAINT WITH CROSSCLAIMS
Defendant, by and hrough counsel, Andrew W. Barbin, P.C. (AWBPC), responds to
Plaintiff, De Lage Landen ( LL)'s Complaint and aver as follows:
1. Admitted on nformation and belief.
2. Admitted.
3. Admitted, adding only Suite C-100 to the address stated.
4. The actual date of agreement was March 22, 2006, as reflected on the Agreement
itself. However, the rental agreement was subject to oral modification after execution, when
significant functionality w unable to be maintained so that it was useable only as a copier and
not a printer, despite numerous service calls over a period of more than a year. Proffered
assurances of appropriate cr dit for limitations in use were not provided and all service to restore
functionality terminated afte# the last attempt failed.
10
5. The contrac is a writing which speaks for itself, however as detailed in new
matter it was the subject of series of subsequent agreements understandings and representations
which are equally relevant t the determination of the rights of the parties.
6. Admitted.
7. The

COUNT I - BREACH OF CONTRACT
s are likewise incorporated.
The date of suspension of payments is a typographical error,
is also in error as the summary ignores payments made to Oce
and to DLL after tempor and ultimately unsuccessful warranty repairs were made by Oce in
December 2008. The total ayments stated exclude an additional $933.25 made following those
unsuccessful repairs. In po?nt of fact, because of installation issues detailed in the Counter and
Crossclaims, the initial payment was adjusted and prorated, so that the first partial invoice was
due and paid May 1, 2006 :eafter, the limited functionality available in March and April. Payments
were made in good faith despite the fact that Oce materially breached its service
obligations until July 200, when only suspension of payments could get Oce's attention.
Payments were made because each representative of Oce provided assurance that the printer
functionality would be restored and the machine still functioned properly as a copier. When
several communications requesting service went unanswered, payment was suspended pending
service being provided as the machine was primarily desired for printing functions and continued
assurances were not honored. The problem was highly exacerbated by the constant change in
personnel as the result of merger of Oce with another company and job reductions and
voluntary separations duet uncertainty. As detailed below in New Matter, in the Summer of
2007 undersigned chanced
upon Thomas Boyd who had originally represented Oce in the

components were replaced without effect, and eventually it was
be given one last opportunity to resolve the matter through repairs
before undersigned gave u secured a replacement and took appropriate legal action. On the
second full day of the final attempt a connection was established, which was lost never to be
retrieved about a month la r (as had been the case previously). Assurance was provided that
customer service would arrange suitable credit or accommodation for the period of
unavailability. Undersigne had indicated that a simple shift of the term of the lease would be
acceptable, provided that the functionality continued. Oce indicated a preference for a credit
based on copies made d ing the period of nonfuctionality. While they later authorized
reduction in an accelerated ?alance, no offer reflective of the period of non-use was ever offered
and relations soured and to inated, particularly after Oce was notified that the network again
did not function, and I had been informed by a former Oce service technician that Oce service
personal were well aware f the problem with the model and it was in no way unique to my
machine. Thereafter Oce r ferred the account to collection and responses to the effect above
were provided and there wee no follow up attempts to collect until Oce assigned the contracts to
Plaintiff who acted as if a contract was a typical DLL financing agreement and not the
integrated Oce rental, financing and service arrangement. No attempt was made to investigate or
remedy the matter and DLL merely proceeded to collection.

ACTS COMMON TO ALL COUNTERCLAIMS
22. Responses 1 to 21 are incorporated as if restated verbatim.
23. Cross-Claim Defendants Oce Solution and Oce Financial Services, were original
parties to the agreements, d related entity Oce Imagistics, Inc (herein after collectively Oce) is
a related or successor ent ty, Oce-USA, Inc. is the apparent original assignee of the rental
agreement (based on the assignment notification letter from DLL, and all are subject to the
jurisdiction and venue provisions notwithstanding assignments.
24. It is believe and averred that they are or were integrated subsidiaries or divisions
of the Oce companies and that they acted together in the conduct described below and that one or
more representatives of each acting in concert with one or more representative of the other
caused the harm alleged below, in the ordinary course of business acting within the scope of their
respective authorities.
25. Oce occupie the business suite next to AWBPC in the Rossmoyne Business Park
in Cumberland County.
26. All relevant onduct originated or transpired in Cumberland County relating to a
contract with a choice of forum clause specially negotiated which provided for exclusive
jurisdiction and venue in C berland County.
27. Tom Boyd acted on behalf of Oce in regard to the original transaction.
28. The Oce equ' ment in question was a discontinued display model.
29. The primary ctionality desired was the ability to print programs and brochures
for undersigned's charitab a activities through the network via programs like Microsoft
Publisher.
5
30. The quality of images copied was of materially less color quality than those
printed through programs ecause of the color correction features inherent in the programs and
not present in the scan imaging functions of the equipment.
31. The existence of manufacturer warranties was a material inducement to the
agreement.
32. It was also a material inducement to the contract that it was represented to
undersigned that Oce's technical and warranty services were provided out of the office next
door, which would ensure prompt attention to any post rental concerns.
33. Whether or of such representations were voided by the zipper clause of the
Agreement, the post con ct conduct of Oce was to perform warranty work directly, no
manufacture's warranties w re transferred and all service calls were handled by Oce personnel.
34. When originally installed the technician was unable to successfully set up the
fiery interface to allow printer functionality.
35. Assurances ere provided that others more knowledgably with the system would
establish printer functionality.
36. Between April 2006 and December 2007, numerous Oce personnel were sent to
the offices of AWBPC to a empt to remedy a persistent and never resolved compatibility issue
relating to the Fiery system use by the machine to connect to the office network.
37. After each attempt, Oce would fail for an extended time to follow up on
assurances that a more knowledgeable employee would be sent to address the problem requiring
hours of prodding for ultimately pointless follow up.
6
38. By July 20 7, all promises of warranty work had worn thin and undersigned
notified Oce that AWBPC was suspending rent payments pending resolution of the warranty
issues.
39. Coincidental y, in August of 2007, undersigned was contacted by a former service
technician of Oce, Mr. Nickolas Le, who had a pending discrimination claim against Oce and
was seeking legal counsel.
40. As a courtesy, during the initial meeting to discuss his case, Mr. Le offered to
look at the machine and immediately on viewing it, stated he was familiar with it and that they
had had problems with it for a long time, and that Oce had ended up replacing machines with
other models for other clien s.
41. The request r warranty service was ignored by Oce until Mr. Boyd intervened.
42. At that time, supervisory personnel provided apologies, explained that the matter
must have fallen through cracks due to personnel changes, and provided functionality would be
restored or other arrangements would be made to address my continued concerns, which they
acknowledged as legitimate d apologized for.
43. Despite knowledge that I was continuing to suspend payments until the concerns
were addressed, Oce sent s veral technicians to attempt to remedy the problem unsuccessfully
during the fall of 2007.
44. Finally, it wa agreed that Oce would be given one last opportunity to revive the
machine during the week f December 15, 2007, prior to my closing the office for my
anniversary and the Christmas holiday.
7
45. Despite a technician and senior supervisor spending an entire day with the
machine, they were unsuccessful, but requested a second day because they thought they had
isolated the problem. The Rowing day they were able to print from the machine.
46. AWBPC agreed to resume payments conditioned on the unit continuing to print,
because functionality had ben briefly restored previously and had mysteriously been lost.
47. Oce represer#tatives assured undersigned that the concern regarding the period of
non-functionality would be icably adjusted and so payments resumed in January.
48. Undersigned made payments not reflected in the Complaint, until it became clear
that the fix did not hold d Oce was not going to adjust the account for the period of non-
functionality.
49. Post-repair p?yments were made between January 4, 2008 and June 17, 2008 in
the total amount of $933.2 ; to Oce through March 4, 2008 and to DLL as of March 5, 2008,
which included three monthly rental payments to DLL not reflected in the Complaint.
50. Oce stopped providing maintenance or supplies and eventually the copier became
non-functional after June 2008; it remains an eyesore in the back room of my office awaiting
pick up by Oce, which dersigned offered DLL at the time the resumed payments were
terminated.
51. Despite requOt, Oce and DLL refused to provide copies of the voluminous
service record regarding the $nultiple service calls.
52. Despite request Oce refused to provide service records regarding the model in
question following discover( of the fact that other customers had identical problems with the
model and disclosure that other clients were provided replacement equipment.
8
53. No replacement was required because WPS, Oce's competitor, provided a
replacement for the Minolta machine in August 2007, which performed both black and white
copying and color printin functions; the WPS machine has worked since its uneventful
installation and has been pad for without incident since.
54. AWPC mad a total of 28,919 copies with the Oce machine.
55. The actual value received by AWBPC did not exceed $2,891.90, as higher quality
color copies could have been obtained at less than 10 cents per page commercially without
respect to the volume discount intended and implicit in the nature of the intended bargain.
56. In terms of strated intention, AWBPC has a current contract with WPS under
which the anticipated quartrly volume allowance is 18,750 copies regarding which AWBPC
generally uses approximately 14,000, except when charitable publications are prepared which
exhausts the allowance.

61. AWBPC was able to mitigate all other losses without cost other than the
considerable time spent in fruitless efforts to secure compliance with warranty obligations and
repeated assurances through the lease of a functioning WPS unit which effectively performed the
functions of both the prior inolta laser printer and the Oce color "printer" which only copied.
NE MATTER - COUNTER AND CROSS CLAIMS
62. Each of the following Counter and Cross Claims is asserted against each Oce
party in its acting capacity Oce-USA, Inc., in its capacity as Interim Assignee and DLL in its
capacity as the successor an interest to Oce Financial Services, Inc.
63. All counts against any Oce party are as to all Oce parties as it is believed and
averred that they acted as an integrated whole without respect to corporate distinction or
formality as reflected in th fact that DLL claims under an assignment from Oce-USA, Inc.

67. Oce materially breached its contractual and post contract undertaking by failing to
perform warranty work in a timely or effective manner.
68. The failure co stituted a material beach which justified suspension of payments.
10
I ` l1
69. The declara 'on of an acceleration of payment for default and the subsequent
refusal to provide ordinary maintenance or supplies resulted in a further material breach and
complete denial of the bene it of the bargain.
70. As a direct d proximate result of the breaches, AWBPC suffered loss in the
amount of $4,110.
WHEREFORE, A PC requests compensatory damages in the amount of $4,110, a
declaration that all contrac al obligations are terminated and a directive that Defendants either
retrieve and dispose of the seless equipment at their expense, or pay the expense necessary for
AWBPC to do so.
Count II - Equitable Rescission and Restitution
Against DLL and the Oce Parties
71. Paragraphs 1 to 70 are incorporated as if restated.
72. Oce knew and deliberately concealed that its equipment had well know problems
with network interface and willfully concealed the knowledge before and after the sale (it is
believed that the information was not known to Mr. Boyd, but was otherwise well known within
the companies.)
73. The deliberat concealment before and after execution of the rental agreement
warrants equitable rescission
74. The failure to provide working replacement equipment when it was known that
warranty work would not restore the printer functionality which was the core intended benefit of
the bargain likewise warrants equitable rescission.
75. Equitable rest
together with unliquidated d
hours of time spent by Andre
tution would be achieved by requiring Defendants to pay $4,110,
unages in an amount deemed reasonable by the fact finder for the

unfruitful effort to secure functionality and in using the copier as a printer during the period
when false promises of futu#e functionality were being made.
76. Rather than ending a document to print and going later to retrieve the copies,
each was required to copy photo quality proofs of any pages desired and then hand copy and
collate each page because oto quality proofs would not feed through the document feeder and
ordinary paper proofs pro uced dramatically deficient image quality. This was particularly
burdensome as to school and charity event programs which were the primary reason for the
purchase of a volume colo printer in the first place, as undersigned has always had separate
personal office color printers for low volume printing of individual exhibits or other such tasks.
WHEREFORE, A "PC seeks against Plaintiff and Cross Claim Defendants' rescission of
the contract and restitution in the amount of $4,110, additional restitution in an unliquidated
amount to be determined b the fact finder, and a directive that Defendants either retrieve and
dispose of the useless eq

80. Though repr sentations regarding the used equipment and the "as is" disclaimer
of the rental agreement c uld arguable vitiate affirmative representations regarding alleged
quality or similar attributes concealment that the network capacity was known to not work is a
material concealment which constitutes fraud in the inducement.
81. The repeated representations regarding future restoration of functionality without
disclosure of the known problems with the unit were also fraudulent and directly and
proximately caused avoidable out of pocket and time loss damages separate from the fraud in the
inducement.
82. AWBPC actually and reasonably relied on the actual and implicit representations
that the operating display model was in fact a network printer and not a mere copier or dirt
connection printer and suffered damage as a result of the falsity of the representations.
83. It should be noted that attempts to bypass the problem by setting the unit up as a
shared printer to a dedicated computer in the copying room were also unsuccessful.
84. The actions of Oce in prolonging the non-disclosure, abandoning warranty
obligations and in declaring default and acceleration of the rental balances and then in assigning
the rental agreement witho disclosure or remediation of the harm caused by the willful non-
disclosure was fraudulent and outrageous and warrants imposition of punitive damages.
85. It is believed at DLL was an innocent assignee without knowledge and so this
claim is asserted solely against the Oce parties.
86. Plaintiff suffered the same out-of-pocket and unliquidated damages from the
frauds as claimed with regar to equitable rescission above.
