(717) 975-5630
Principal Amount: $100,000.00 Initial Rate: 6.000% Date of Note: August 17, 2004
PROMISE. TO PAY, R. Hart Enterprises, Inc. ("Borrower") promises to pay to COMMERCE BANK/HARRISBURG N.A. ("Lender"), or order, in
lawful money of the United States of America, on demand, the principal amount of One Hundred Thousand & 00/100 Dollars (S 100,000.00) or
so much as may be outstanding, together with interest on the unpaid outstanding principal balance of each advance. Interest shall be calculated
from the date of each advance until repayment of each advance.
PAYMENT. Borrower will pay this ban immediately upon Lender's demand. Payment in dull is due immediately upon Lender's demand.
Borrower will pay regular monthly payments of all accrued unpaid interest due as of each payment date, beginning September 17, 2004, with all
subsequent Interest payments to be due on the same day of each month after that. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law,
payments will be applied first to any accrued unpaid interest; then to principal; then to any unpaid collection costs; and then to any late charges.
The annual interest rate for this Note is computed on a 3651360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the annual Interest rate over a year of
360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding.
Borrower will pay Lender at Lender's address shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing.
VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on this Note is subject to change from time to time based on changes in an independent index
which is the Prime Rate as published in the Money Rate Section of the Wall Street Journal, If a range of rates is published, the highest will be
used. (the "Index"). The Index is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. If the Index becomes unavailable during the
term of this ban, Lender may designate a substitute index after notice to Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon
Borrower's request. The interest rate change will not occur more often than each day. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans
based on other rates as well. The Index currently is 4.500% per annum. The Interest rate to be applied to the unpaid principal balance of this
Note will be at a rate of 1.500 percentage points over the Index, resulting in an initial rate of 6.000% per annum. NOTICE: Under no
circumstances will the interest rate on this Note be more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law.
PREPAYMENT. Borrower agrees that all loan fees and other prepaid finance charges are earned fully as of the date of the loan and will not be
subject to refund upon early payment (whether voluntary or as a result of default), except as otherwise required by law. Except for the
foregoing, Borrower may pay without penalty all of a portion of the amount owed earlier than it is due. Early payments will not, unless agreed
to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue to make payments of accrued unpaid interest. Rather, early
payments will reduce the principal balance due. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked 'paid in full", "without recourse", or
similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender's rights under this Note, and Borrower
will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender. All written communications concerning disputed amounts, including any check
or other payment instrument that indicates that the payment constitutes "payment in full" of the amount owed or that is tendered with other
conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount must be mailed or delivered to: COMMERCE BANK/HARRISBURG N.A.,
LOAN SERVICING, 100 SENATE AVENUE CAMP HILL, PA 17011.

payment. If Lender demands payment of this loan, and Borrower does not pay the loan in full within 10 days after Lender's demand, Borrower
also wdl be charged 5.000% of the sum of the unpaid principal plus accrued unpaid Interest.

and after Guarantor's death or incapacity, regardless of Lender's actual notice of Guarantor's death. Subject to the foregoing, Guarantor's
executor or administrator or other legal representative may terminate this Guaranty in the same manner in which Guarantor might have
terminated it and with the same effect. Release of any other guarantor or termination of any other guaranty of the Indebtedness shall not affect
the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty. A revocation Lender receives from any one or more Guarantors shall not affect the liability of any
remaining Guarantors under this Guaranty. It is anticipated that fluctuations may occur In the aggregate amount of Indebtedness covered by this
Guaranty, and Guarantor specifically acknowledges and agrees that reductions In the amount of Indebtedness, even to zero dollars ($0.00), prior
to Guarantor's written revocation of this Guaranty shall not constitute a termination of this Guaranty. This Guaranty is binding upon Guarantor
end Guarantor's heirs, successors and assigns so long as any of the guaranteed Indebtedness remains unpaid and even though the indebtedness
guaranteed may from time to time be zero dollars ($0.00).
GUARANTOR'S AUTHORIZATION TO LENDER. Guarantor authorizes Lender, either before or after any revocation hereof, without notice or
demand and without lessening Guarantor's 6abdity under this Guaranty, from time to time: (A) prior to revocation as set forth above, to make
one or more additional secured or unsecured loans to Borrower, to lease equipment or other goods to Borrower, or otherwise to extend
additional credit to Borrower; IB) to alter, compromise, renew, extend, accelerate, or otherwise change one or more times the time for payment
or other terms of the Indebtedness or any part of the Indebtedness, including increases and decreases of the rate of interest on the
Indebtedness; extensions may be repeated and may be for longer than the original loan term; 1C) to take and hold security for the payment of
this Guaranty or the Indebtedness, and exchange, enforce, waive, subordinate, fail or decide not to perfect, and release any such security, with

Lender in the course of its relationship with Borrower.
GUARANTOR'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Guarantor agrees to furnish Lender with the following:
Annual Statements. As soon as available, but in no event later than one-hundred-twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year,
Guarantor's balance sheet and income statement for the year ended, prepared by Guarantor.

reporting period ended, Federal and other governmental tax returns, prepared by Guarantor.
All financial reports required to be provided under this Guaranty shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied on a consistent basis, and
certified by Guarantor as being true and correct.
GUARANTOR'S WAIVERS. Except as prohibited by applicable law, Guarantor waives any right to require Lender (A) to continue lending
money or to extend other credit to Borrower; (B) to make any presentment, protest, demand, or notice of any kind, including notice of any
nonpayment of the Indebtedness or of any nonpayment related to any collateral, or notice of any action or nonaction on the part of Borrower,
Lender, any surety, endorser, or other guarantor in connection with the Indebtedness or in connection with the creation of new or additional
loans or obligations; (C) to resort for payment or to proceed directly or at once against any person, including Borrower or any other guarantor;
(D) to proceed directly against or exhaust any collateral held by Lender from Borrower, any other guarantor, or any other person; (E) to give
notice of the terms, time, and place of any public or private sale of personal property security held by Lender from Borrower or to comply with
any other applicable provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code; (F) to pursue any other remedy within Lender's power; or (G) to commit any
act or omission of any kind, or at any time, with respect to any matter whatsoever.
Guarantor also waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of (A) any "one action" or 'anti-deficiency" law or any other law which
may prevent Lender from bringing any action, including a claim for deficiency, against Guarantor, before or after Lender's commencement or
completion of any foreclosure action, either judicially or by exercise of a power of sate; (B) any election of remedies by Lender which destroys
or otherwise adversely affects Guarantor's subrogation rights or Guarantor's rights to proceed against Borrower for reimbursement, including
without limitation, any loss of rights Guarantor may suffer by reason of any law limiting, qualifying, or discharging the Indebtedness; (C) any
disability or other defense of Borrower, of any other guarantor, or of any other person, or by reason of the cessation of Borrower's liability from
any cause whatsoever, other than payment in full in legal tender, of the Indebtedness; (D) any right to claim discharge of the Indebtedness on
the basis of unjustified impairment of any collateral for the Indebtedness; (E) any statute of limitations, if at any time any action or suit brought
by Lender against Guarantor is commenced, there is outstanding Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender which is not barred by any applicable
statute of limitations; or (F) any defenses given to guarantors at law or in equity other than actual payment and performance of the
Indebtedness. If payment is made by Borrower, whether voluntarily or otherwise, or by any third party, on the Indebtedness and thereafter
Lender is forced to remit the amount of that payment to Borrower's trustee in bankruptcy or to any similar person under any federal or state
bankruptcy law or law for the relief of debtors, the Indebtedness shall be considered unpaid for the purpose of the enforcement of this Guaranty.
Guarantor further waives and agrees not to assert or claim at any time any deductions to the amount guaranteed under this Guaranty for any
claim of setoff, counterclaim, counter demand, recoupment or similar right, whether such claim, demand or right may be asserted by the
Borrower, the Guarantor, or both.
GUARANTOR'S UNDERSTANDING WITH RESPECT TO WAIVERS. Guarantor warrants and agrees that each of the waivers set forth above is
made with Guarantor's full knowledge of its significance and consequences and that, under the circumstances, the waivers are reasonable and
not contrary to public policy or law. If any such waiver is determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such waiver shall be
effective only to the extent permitted by law or public policy.
RIGHT OF SETOFF. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lender reserves a right of setoff in all Guarantor's accounts with Lender
(whether checking, savings, or some other account). This includes all accounts Guarantor holds jointly with someone else and all accounts
Guarantor may open in the future. However, this does not include any IRA or Keogh accounts, or any trust accounts for which setoff would be
prohibited by law. Guarantor authorizes Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to hold these funds if there is a default, and Lender
may apply the funds in these accounts to pay what Guarantor owes under the terms of this Guaranty.
SUBORDINATION OF BORROWER'S DEBTS TO GUARANTOR. Guarantor agrees that the Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, whether now
existing or hereafter created, shall be superior to any claim that Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire against Borrower, whether or not
Borrower becomes insolvent. Guarantor hereby expressly subordinates any claim Guarantor may have against Borrower, upon any account
whatsoever, to any claim that Lender may now or hereafter have against Borrower. In the event of insolvency and consequent liquidation of the
assets of Borrower, through bankruptcy, by an assignment for the benefit of creditors, by voluntary liquidation, or otherwise, the assets of
Borrower applicable to the payment of the claims of both Lender and Guarantor shall be paid to Lender and shall be first applied by Lender to the
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender. Guarantor does hereby assign to Lender all claims which it may have or acquire against Borrower or
against any assignee or trustee in bankruptcy of Borrower; provided however, that such assignment shall be effective only for the purpose of
assuring to Lender full payment in legal tender of the Indebtedness. If Lender so requests, any notes or credit agreements now or hereafter
evidencing any debts or obligations of Borrower to Guarantor shall be marked with a legend that the same are subject to this Guaranty and shall
be delivered to Lender. Guarantor agrees, and Lender is hereby authorized, in the name of Guarantor, from time to time to file financing
statements and continuation statements and to execute documents and to take such other actions as Lender deems necessary or appropriate to
perfect, preserve and enforce its rights under this Guaranty.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of this Guaranty:
Amendments. This Guaranty, together with any Related Documents, constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as
to the matters set forth in this Guaranty. No alteration of or amendment to this Guaranty shall be effective unless given in writing and
signed by the party or parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration or amendment.
Attorneys' Fees; Expenses. Guarantor agrees to pay upon demand all of Lender's costs and expenses, including Lender's attorneys' fees
and Lender's legal expenses, incurred in connection with the enforcement of this Guaranty. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help
enforce this Guaranty, and Guarantor shall pay the costs and expenses of such enforcement. Costs and expenses include Lender's
attorneys' fees and legal expenses whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees and legal expenses for bankruptcy
proceedings (including efforts to modify or vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated post-judgment collection
services. Guarantor also shall pay all court costs and such additional fees as may be directed by the court.
Captiet? Headings. Caption headings in this Guaranty are for convenience purposes only -o are not to be used to interpret or define the

COMMERCIAL GUARANTY
Loan No: 3184395 (Continued) Page 3
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This Guaranty has been accepted by Lender in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Integration. Guarantor further agrees that Guarantor has read and fully understands the terms of this Guaranty; Guarantor has had the
opportunity to be advised by Guarantor's attorney with respect to this Guaranty; the Guaranty fully reflects Guarantor's intentions and parol
evidence is not required to interpret the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor hereby indemnifies and holds Lender harmless from all losses,
claims, damages, and costs (including Lender's attorneys' fees) suffered or incurred by Lender as a result of any breach by Guarantor of the
warranties, representations and agreements of this paragraph.
Interpretation. In all cases where there is more than one Borrower or Guarantor, then all words used in this Guaranty in the singular shall
be deemed to have been used in the plural where the context and construction so require; and where there is more than one Borrower
named in this Guaranty or when this Guaranty is executed by more than one Guarantor, the words "Borrower" and "Guarantor"
respectively shall mean all and any one or more of them. The words "Guarantor," "Borrower," and 'Lender" include the heirs, successors,
assigns, and transferees of each of them. If a court finds that any provision of this Guaranty is not valid or should not be enforced, that
fact by itself will not mean that the rest of this Guaranty will not be valid or enforced. Therefore, a court will enforce the rest of the
provisions of this Guaranty even if a provision of this Guaranty may be found to be invalid or unenforceable. If any one or more of
Borrower or Guarantor are corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, or similar entities, it is not necessary for Lender to inquire
into the powers of Borrower or Guarantor or of the officers, directors, partners, managers, or other agents acting or purporting to act on
their behalf, and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed under this
Guaranty.
Notices. Unless otherwise provided by applicable law, any notice required to be given under this Guaranty shall be given in writing, and,
except for revocation notices by Guarantor, shall be effective when actually delivered, when actually received by telefacsimile {unless
otherwise required by law), when deposited with a nationally recognized overnight courier, or, if mailed, when deposited in the United
States mail, as first class, certified or registered mail postage prepaid, directed to the addresses shown near the beginning of this Guaranty.
All revocation notices by Guarantor shall be in writing and shall be effective upon delivery' to Lender as provided in the section of this
Guaranty entitled "DURATION OF GUARANTY." Any party may change its address for notices under this Guaranty by giving formal written
notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the party's address. For notice purposes, Guarantor
agrees to keep Lender informed at all times of Guarantor's current address. Unless otherwise provided by applicable law, if there is more
than one Guarantor, any notice given by Lender to any Guarantor is deemed to be notice given to all Guarantors.
No Waiver by Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this Guaranty unless such waiver is given in writing and
signed by Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other
right. A waiver by Lender of a provision of this Guaranty shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of Lender's right otherwise to demand
strict compliance with that provision or any other provision of this Guaranty. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any course of dealing between
Lender and Guarantor, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or of any of Guarantor's obligations as to any future transactions.
Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this Guaranty, the granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not constitute
continuing consent to subsequent instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in
the sole discretion of Lender.
Successors and Assigns. The terms of this Guaranty shall be binding upon Guarantor, and upon Guarantor's heirs, personal
representatives, successors, and assigns, and shall be enforceable by Lender and its successors and assigns.

Mechanicsburg, PA 17055
AMOUNT OF GUARANTY. The amount of this Guaranty is Unlimited.
CONTINUING UNLIMITED GUARANTY. For good and valuable consideration, Nancie J. Hart ("Guarantor") absolutely and unconditionally
guarantees and promises to pay to COMMERCE BANK/HARRISBURG N.A. ("Lender") or its order, on demand, in legal tender of the United
States of America, the Indebtedness (as that term is defined below) of R. Hart Enterprises, Inc. ("Borrower") to Lender on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Guaranty. Under this Guaranty, the liability of Guarantor is unlimited and the obligations of Guarantor are continuing.
INDEBTEDNESS GUARANTEED. The Indebtedness guaranteed by this Guaranty includes any and all of Borrower's indebtedness to Lender and
is used in the most comprehensive sense and means and includes any and all of Borrower's liabilities, obligations and debts to Lender, now
existing or hereinafter incurred or created, including, without limitation, all loans, advances, interest, costs, debts, overdraft indebtedness, credit
card indebtedness, lease obligations, other obligations, and liabilities of Borrower, or any of them, and any present or future judgments against
Borrower, or any of them; and whether any such Indebtedness is voluntarily or involuntarily incurred, due or not due, absolute or contingent,
liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined; whether Borrower may be liable individually or jointly with others, or primarily or
secondarily, or as guarantor or surety; whether recovery on the Indebtedness may be or may become barred or unenforceable against Borrower
for any reason whatsoever; and whether the Indebtedness arises from transactions which may be voidable on account of infancy, insanity, ultra
vires, or otherwise.
DURATION OF GUARANTY. This Guaranty will take effect when received by Lender without the necessity of any acceptance by Lender, or any
notice to Guarantor or to Borrower, and will continue in full force until all Indebtedness incurred or contracted before receipt by Lender of any
notice of revocation shall have been fully and finally paid and satisfied and all of Guarantor's other obligations under this Guaranty shall have,
been performed in full. If Guarantor elects to revoke this Guaranty, Guarantor may only do so in writing. Guarantor's written notice of
revocation must be mailed to Lender, by certified mail, at Lender's address listed above or such other place as Lender may designate in writing,
Written revocation of this Guaranty will apply only to advances or new Indebtedness created after actual receipt by Lender of Guarantor's
written revocation. For this purpose and without limitation, the term "new Indebtedness" does not include Indebtedness which at the time of
notice of revocation is contingent, unliquidated, undetermined or not due and which later becomes absolute, liquidated, determined or due. This
Guaranty will continue to bind Guarantor for all Indebtedness incurred by Borrower or committed by Lender prior to receipt of Guarantor's
written notice of revocation, including any extensions, renewals; substitutions or modifications of the Indebtedness. All renewals, extensions,
substitutions, and modifications of the Indebtedness granted after Guarantor's revocation, are contemplated under this Guaranty and,
specifically will not be considered to be new Indebtedness. This Guaranty shall bind Guarantor's estate as to Indebtedness created both before
and after Guarantor's death or incapacity, regardless of Lender's actual notice of Guarantor's death. Subject.to the foregoing, Guarantor's
executor or administrator or other legal representative may terminate this Guaranty in the same manner in which Guarantor might have
terminated it and with the same effect. Release of any other guarantor or termination of any other guaranty of the Indebtedness shall not affect
the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty. A revocation Lender receives from any one or more Guarantors shall not affect the liability of any
remaining Guarantors under this Guaranty. tt is anticipated that fluctuations may occur in the aggregate amount of Indebtedness covered by this
Guaranty, and Guarantor specifically acknowledges and agrees that reductions in the amount of Indebtedness, even to zero dopers ($0.00), prior
to Guarantor's written revocation of this Guaranty shall not constitute a termination of this Guaranty. This Guaranty is binding upon Guarantor
and Guarantor's heirs, successors and assigns so long as any of the guaranteed indebtedness remains unpaid and even though the Indebtedness
guaranteed may from time to time be zero dollars (0.00).
GUARANTOR'S AUTHORIZATION TO LENDER. Guarantor authorizes Lender, either before or after any revocation hereof, without notice or
demand and without lessening Guarantor's liability under this Guaranty, from time to time: (A) prior to revocation as set forth above, to make
one or more additional secured or unsecured loans to Borrower, to lease equipment or other goods to Borrower, or otherwise to extend
additional credit to Borrower; (B) to alter, compromise, renew, extend, accelerate, or otherwise change one or more times the time for payment
or other terms of the Indebtedness or any part of the Indebtedness, including increases and decreases of the rate of interest on the
Indebtedness; extensions may be repeated and may be for longer than the original loan term; (C) to take and hold security for the payment of
this Guaranty or the Indebtedness, and exchange, enforce, waive, subordinate, fail or decide not to perfect, and release any such security, with
or without the substitution of new collateral; (D) to release, substitute, agree not to sue, or deal with any one or more of Borrower's sureties,
endorsers, or other guarantors on any terms or in any manner Lender may choose; (E) to determine how, when and what application of
payments and credits shall be made on the Indebtedness (F) to apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, including
without limitation, any nonjudicial sale permitted by the terms of the controlling security agreement or deed of trust, as Lender in its discretion
may determine; (G) to sell, transfer, assign or grant participations in all or any part of the Indebtedness; and (H) to assign or transfer this
Guaranty in whole or in part.
GUARANTOR'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Guarantor represents and warrants to Lender that (A) no representations or

GUARANTOR'S WAIVERS. Except as prohibited by applicable law, Guarantor waives any right to require Lender (A) to continue lending
money or to extend other credit to Borrower; (B) to make any presentment, protest, demand, or notice of any kind, including notice of any
nonpayment of the Indebtedness or of any nonpayment related to any collateral, or notice of any action or nonaction on the part of Borrower,
Lender, any surety, endorser, or other guarantor in connection with the Indebtedness or in connection with the creation of new or additional
loans or obligations; IC) to resort for payment or to proceed directly or at once against any person, including Borrower or any other guarantor;
(D) to proceed directly against or exhaust any collateral held by Lender from Borrower, any other guarantor, or any other person; (E) to give
notice of the terms, time, and place of any public or private sale of personal property security held by Lender from Borrower or to comply with
any other applicable provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code; (F) to pursue any other remedy within Lender's power; or (G) to commit any
act or omission of any kind, or at any time, with respect to any matter whatsoever.
Guarantor also waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of (A) any "one action" or "anti-deficiency" law or any other law which
may prevent Lender from bringing any action, including a claim for deficiency, against Guarantor, before or after Lender's commencement or
completion of any foreclosure action, either judicially or by exercise of a power of sale; (B) any election of remedies by Lender which destroys
or otherwise adversely affects Guarantor's subrogation rights or Guarantor's rights to proceed against Borrower for reimbursement, including
without limitation, any loss of rights Guarantor may suffer by reason of any law limiting, qualifying, or discharging the Indebtedness; (C) any
disability or other defense of Borrower, of any other guarantor, or of any other person, or by reason of the cessation of Borrower's liability from
any cause whatsoever, other than payment in full in legal tender, of the Indebtedness; (D) any right to claim discharge of the Indebtedness on
the basis of unjustified impairment of any collateral for the Indebtedness; (E) any statute of limitations, if at any time any action or suit brought
by Lender against Guarantor is commenced, there is outstanding Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender which is not barred by any applicable
statute of limitations; or (F) any defenses given to guarantors at law or in equity other than actual payment and performance of the
Indebtedness. If payment is made by Borrower, whether voluntarily or otherwise, or by any third party, on the Indebtedness and thereafter
Lander is forced to remit the amount of that payment to Borrower's trustee in bankruptcy or to any similar person under any federal or state
bankruptcy law or'law for the relief of debtors, the Indebtedness shall be considered unpaid for the purpose of the enforcement of this Guaranty.
Guarantor further waives and agrees not to assert or claim at any time any deductions to the amount guaranteed under this Guaranty for any
claim of setoff, counterclaim, counter demand, recoupment or similar right, whether such claim, demand or right may be asserted by the
Borrower, the Guarantor, or both.
GUARANTOR'S UNDERSTANDING WITH RESPECT TO WAIVERS. Guarantor warrants and agrees that each of the waivers set forth above is
made with Guarantor's full knowledge of its significance and consequences and that, under the circumstances, the waivers are reasonable and
not contrary to public policy or law. If any such waiver is determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such waiver shall be
effective only to the extent permitted by law or public policy.
RIGHT OF SETOFF. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lender reserves a right of setoff in all Guarantor's accounts with Lender
(whether checking, savings, or some other account). This includes all accounts Guarantor holds jointly with someone else and all accounts
Guarantor may open in the future. However, this does not include any IRA or Keogh accounts, or any trust accounts for which setoff would be
prohibited by law. Guarantor authorizes Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to hold these funds if there is a default, and Lender
may apply the funds in these accounts to pay what Guarantor owes under the terms of this Guaranty.
SUBORDINATION OF BORROWER'S DEBTS TO GUARANTOR. Guarantor agrees that the Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, whether now
existing or hereafter created, shall be superior to any claim that Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire against Borrower, whether or not
Borrower becomes insolvent. Guarantor hereby expressly subordinates any claim Guarantor may have against Borrower, upon any account
whatsoever, to any claim that Lender may now or hereafter have against Borrower. In the event of insolvency and consequent liquidation of the
assets of Borrower, through bankruptcy, by an assignment for the benefit of creditors, by voluntary liquidation, or otherwise, the assets of
Borrower applicable to the payment of the claims of both Lender and Guarantor shall be paid to Lender and shall be first applied by Lender to the
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender. Guarantor does hereby assign to Lender all claims which it may have or acquire against Borrower or
against any assignee or trustee in bankruptcy of Borrower; provided however, that such assignment shall be effective only for the purpose of
assuring to Lender full payment in legal tender of the Indebtedness. If Lender so requests, any notes or credit agreements now or hereafter
evidencing any debts or obligations of Borrower to Guarantor shall be marked with a legend that the same are subject to this Guaranty and shall
be delivered to Lender. Guarantor agrees, and Lender is hereby authorized, in the name of Guarantor, from time to time to file financing
statements and continuation statements and to execute documents and to take such other actions as Lender deems necessary or appropriate to
perfect, preserve and enforce its rights under this Guaranty.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of this Guaranty:
Amendments. This Guaranty, together with any Related Documents, constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as
to the matters set forth in this Guaranty. No alteration of or amendment to this Guaranty shall be effective unless given in writing and
signed by the party or parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration or amendment.
Attorneys' Fees; Expenses. Guarantor agrees to pay upon demand all of Lender's costs and expenses, including Lender's attorneys' fees
and Lender's legal expenses, incurred in connection with the enforcement of this Guaranty. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help
enforce this Guaranty, and Guarantor shall pay the costs and expenses of such enforcement. Costs and expenses include Lender's
attorneys' fees and legal expenses whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees and legal expenses for bankruptcy
proceedings (including efforts to modify or vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated post-judgment collection
services. Guarantor also shall pay all court costs and such additional fees as may be directed by the court.

Loan Nb: 3184395 (Continued) Page 3
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This Guaranty has been accepted by Lender in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Integration. Guarantor further agrees that Guarantor has read and fully understands the terms of this Guaranty; Guarantor has had the
opportunity to be advised by Guarantor's attorney with respect to this Guaranty; the Guaranty fully reflects Guarantor's intentions and parol
evidence is not required to interpret the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor hereby indemnifies and holds Lender harmless from all losses,
claims, damages, and costs (including Lender's attorneys' fees) suffered or incurred by Lender as a result of any breach by Guarantor of the
warranties, representations and agreements of this paragraph.
Interpretation. In all cases where there is more than one Borrower or Guarantor, then all words used in this Guaranty in the singular shall
be deemed to have been used in the plural where the context and construction so require; and where there is more than one Borrower
named in this Guaranty or when this Guaranty is executed by more than one Guarantor, the words "Borrower" and "Guarantor"
respectively shall mean all and any one or more of them. The words "Guarantor," "Borrower," and "Lender" include the heirs, successors,
assigns, and transferees of each of them. If a court finds that any provision of this Guaranty is not valid or should not be enforced, that
fact by itself will not mean that the rest of this Guaranty will not be valid or enforced. Therefore, a court will enforce the rest of the
provisions of this Guaranty even if a provision of this Guaranty may be found to be invalid or unenforceable. If any one or more of
Borrower or Guarantor are corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, or similar entities, it is not necessary for Lender to inquire
into the powers of Borrower or Guarantor or of the officers, directors, partners, managers, or other agents acting or purporting to act on
their behalf, and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed under this
Guaranty.
Notices. Unless otherwise provided by applicable law, any notice required to be given under this Guaranty shall be given in writing, and,
except for revocation notices by Guarantor, shall be effective when actually delivered, when actually received by telefacsimile (unless
otherwise required by law), when deposited with a nationally recognized overnight courier, or, if mailed, when deposited in the United
States mail, as first class, certified or registered mail postage prepaid, directed to the addresses shown near the beginning of this Guaranty.
All revocation notices by Guarantor shall be in writing and shall be effective upon delivery to Lender as provided in the section of this
Guaranty entitled "DURATION OF GUARANTY." Any party may change its address for notices under this Guaranty by giving formal written
notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the party's address. For notice purposes, Guarantor
agrees to keep Lender informed at all times of Guarantor's current address. Unless otherwise provided by applicable law, if there is more
than one Guarantor, any notice given by Lender to any Guarantor is deemed to be notice given to all Guarantors.
No Waiver by Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this Guaranty unless such waiver is given in writing and
signed by Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other
right. A waiver by Lender of a provision of this Guaranty shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of Lender's right otherwise to demand
strict compliance with that provision or any other provision of this Guaranty. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any course of dealing between
Lender and Guarantor, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or of any of Guarantor's obligations as to any future transactions.
Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this Guaranty, the granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not constitute
continuing consent to subsequent instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in
the sole discretion of Lender.
Successors and Assigns. The terms of this Guaranty shall be binding upon Guarantor, and upon Guarantor's heirs, personal
representatives, successors, and assigns, and shall be enforceable by Lender and its successors and assigns.

Re: Indebtedness of R. Hart Enterprises (the "Borrower") to Metro Bank
formerly Commerce Bank / Harrisburg NA (the "Bank") as
guarantied by Richard P. Hart and Nancie J. Hart (collectively, the
"Guarantors")
Dear Mr. and Ms Hart:
Reference is made to the Promissory Note of the Borrower in the original
principal amount of $100,000, dated August 17, 2004, and payable to the order of
Commerce Bank/Harrisburg N.A. now known as Metro Bank (the "Term Note"). The
Borrower is in default under the Term Note in that the Borrower has failed to, among
other things, make payments when due (the "Term Note Default"). This letter constitutes
formal notice to the Borrower and Guarantors of the occurrence of the Term Note
Default.
As a result of the Borrower's default, the Bank has elected to exercise its option to
declare the entire unpaid principal balance of the Term Note and all accrued and unpaid
interest to be immediately due and payable. As of December 9, 2010, there is unpaid,
due and owing to the Bank under the Term Note the amount of $ 106,293.80. Demand is
hereby made for the immediate payment in full of all amounts which are due and which
may become due under the Term Note. The balance due under the Term Note may
increase or decrease as a result of the receipt of payments and the proceeds of collateral
securing the Term Note and the accrual of interest, late charges, costs of collection and
other fees, costs and expenses. Therefore, immediately prior to remitting payment, please
contact David M. Chajkowski at (717) 412-6218 to obtain final payoff amounts and
remittance instructions.
Nothing contained in this letter constitutes a waiver or release of any of the terms
or provisions of the Term Note or of any and all other notes, instruments or agreements
between the Bank and the Borrower (the "Loan Documents"} The Bank reserves all
rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Documents and applicable law, all of
which are expressly hereby reserved.
No discussions between the Bank and the Borrower and/or Guarantors concerning
this notification, other loan relationships between the Bank and the Borrower and/or
Guarantors, or any other matter shall imply an agreement on the part of the Bank to
waive any of its rights and remedies or to forbear from taking any action authorized by
the Loan Documents or applicable law, whether or not such discussions may be
continuing.
Any communications with any representative of the Bank, whether oral or
written, will be mere discussions only and will not in any way commit or be binding upon
the Bank unless reduced to a writing signed by an authorized officer of the Bank. Such
communications will not represent any course of dealing, and in no manner shall you rely
in any way on any such discussions unless such communications are reduced to a writing
signed by an authorized officer of the Bank.
The acceptance of any partial payment of any of the obligations of the Borrower
and/or Guarantors to the Bank shall not be deemed a waiver or limitation of any of the
Bank's rights reserved herein as to the full amount of any unpaid balance. Any delay or
forbearance by the Bank in the enforcement or pursuit of any of its rights and remedies
under the Loan Documents or applicable law shall not constitute a waiver thereof, nor
shall it be a bar to the exercise of the Bank's rights or remedies at a later date.
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me
Sincerely,
METRO BANK

PENNSYLVANIA RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE 2959
STRIKING OFF OR OPENING JUDGMENT; PLEADINGS AND PROCEDURE
(a)(1) Relief from a judgment by confession shall besought by petition. Except as
provided in subparagraph (2), all grounds for relief whether to strike off the judgment or to open
it must be asserted in a single petition. The petition may be filed in the county in which the
judgment was originally entered, in any county to which the judgment has been transferred or in
any other county in which the sheriff has received a writ of execution directed to the sheriff to
enforce the judgment
(2) The ground that the waiver of the due process rights of notice and hearing was not
voluntary, intelligent and knowing shall be raised only
(i) in support of a further request for a stay of execution where the court has
not stayed execution despite the timely filing of a petition for relief from the judgment and the
presentation of prima facie evidence of a defense; and
(ii) as provided by Rule 2958.3 or Rule 2973.3.
(3) If written notice is served upon the petitioner pursuant to Rule 2956.1(c)(2) or
Rule 2973.1(c), the petition shall be filed within thirty days after such service. Unless the
defendant can demonstrate that there were compelling reasons for the delay, a petition not timely
filed shall be denied.
(b) If the petition states prima facie grounds for relief the court shall issue a rule to
show cause and may grant a stay of proceedings. After being served with a copy of the petition
the plaintiff shall file an answer on before the return day of the rule. The return day of the rule
shall be fixed by the court by local rule or special order.
(c) A party waives all defenses and objections which are not included in the petition
or answer.
(d) The petition and the rule to show cause and the answer shall be served as
provided in Rule 440.
(e) The court shall dispose of the rule on petition and answer, and on any testimony,
depositions, admissions and other evidence. The court for cause shown may stay proceedings on
the petition insofar as it seeks to open the judgment pending disposition of the application to
strike off the judgment. If evidence is produced which in a jury trial would require the issues to
be submitted to the jury the court shall open the judgment.
(f) The lien of the judgment or of any levy or attachment shall be preserved while the
proceedings to strike off or open the judgment are pending.
(g) (1) A judgment shall not be stricken or opened because of a creditor's failure
to provide a debtor with instructions imposed by an existing statute, if any, regarding procedures
to follow to strike a judgment or regarding any rights available to an incorrectly identified
debtor.
(2) Subdivision (g)(1) shall apply to (1) judgment entered prior to the effective date
of a subdivision (g) which have not been stricken or opened as of the effective date and (2)
judgment entered on or after the effective date.
