ORDER OF COURT
AND NOW, this 26th day of February, 2007, after

1. The agreement is applicable to exclude the value
of the separately owned assets as of the date of marriage from
the marital estate.
2. It does not exclude any increase in value of
those assets or further contributions thereto after the date of
marriage.
3. Likewise, it does not exclude any gifts to the

default in performance by Husband or Wife of any of the obligations to be performed by such
party hereunder. The Husband or Wife agrees to give the other prompt written notice of any

appraisement as required by Section 3505(b) of the Pennsylvania Divorce Code.

waive any and all rights they may have under Section 3501 (Equitable Distribution) of the
Pennsylvania Code, Act No. 1990-206.
Page 14 of 19
This Agreement may be offered in evidence in the action for divorce and may be
incorporated by reference in the decree to be granted therein. Notwithstanding such
incorporation, this Agreement shall not be merged in the decree, but shall survive the same and
shall be binding and conclusive on the Parties for all time.

Agreement, each party has released and discharged, and by this Agreement does for himself or
herself, and his or her heirs, legal representatives, executors, administrators and assigns, release

Pennsylvania.
35. BREACH: In the event that either Party breaches any provision of this
Agreement, he or she shall be responsible for any and all costs incurred to enforce the
Agreement, including, but not limited to, court cost and counsel fees of the other Party. In the
event of breach, the other Party shall have the right, at his or her election, to sue for damages for
such breach or to seek such other and additional remedies as may be available to him or her.
36. ENTIRE UNDERSTANDING: This Agreement contains the entire
understanding of the parties and there are no representations, warranties, covenants or undertakings
other than those expressly set forth herein. The parties acknowledge that prior to their marriage
they executed a Prenuptial Agreement, which was deemed valid by the Court of Common Pleas of
Cumberland County after a hearing on the matter. Notwithstanding the same, the parties agree that
this Agreement will supersede the provisions of the Prenuptial Agreement. Husband and Wife
acknowledge and agree that the provisions of this Agreement with respect to the distribution and
division of marital and separate property are fair, equitable and satisfactory to them based on the
length of their marriage and other relevant factors which have been taken into consideration by the
parties. Both parties hereby accept the provisions of this Agreement with respect to the division of
property in lieu of and in full and final settlement and satisfaction of all claims and demands that
they may now have or hereafter have against the other for equitable distribution of their property by

laws. Husband and Wife each voluntarily and intelligently waive and relinquish any right to seek a
court ordered determination and distribution of marital property, but nothing herein contained shall
constitute a waiver by either party of any rights to seek the relief of any court for the purpose of
enforcing the provisions of this Agreement.
37. AGREEMENT BINDING ON PARTIES AND HEIRS: It is understood and
agreed that not only the Parties hereto, but also their heirs, administrators, executors and assigns,
shall be bound by all the terms, conditions and clauses of this Agreement.
38. WAIVER OR MODIFICATION TO BE IN WRITING: A modification or
waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be effective only if made in writing and
executed with the same formality as this Agreement. The failure of either party to insist upon strict
performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any
subsequent default of the same or similar nature.
39. NO WAIVER OF DEFAULT: This Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect unless and until terminated under and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The failure of
either Party to insist upon strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no
way affect the right of such Party hereafter to enforce the same, nor shall the waiver of any breach
of any provision hereof be construed as a waiver of any subsequent default of the same or similar
nature, nor shall the waiver of any breach of any provision hereof be construed as a waiver of strict
performance of any other obligations herein.
Page 17 of 19
40. HEADINGS NOT A PART OF AGREEMENT: Any headings preceding the
text of the several paragraphs and subparagraphs hereof are inserted solely for convenience of
reference and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement nor shall they affect its meaning,
construction or effect.
41. CONSTRUCTION: No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted for or

or in part.
