Defendant Thomas Fromm, an adult individual, resides at 729 Zeigler Rd., Enola, Pennsylvania 17025. 3. The parties had operated a Quizno's franchise in Cumberland County, SAIDIS SULLIVAN LAW 26 West High Street Carlisle, PA Pennsylvania under the corporate name Frommco, Inc. 4. Defendant acted as President of Frommco, Inc. 5. On June 1, 2003, Frommco, Inc., executed an installment judgment note wherein it was agreed that Frommco, Inc. would pay to Williams C. Fromm $97,500.00 with interest in monthly installments for seven years. See Installment Judgment Note attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit A. 6. This note represented repayment of funds loaned by Plaintiff to Defendant for purposes of funding Defendant's various business ventures including Frommco, Inc., and the Quizno's franchise. 7. Periodic payments were made by Defendant to Plaintiff towards the Judgment Note with the first payment being made in January of 2004. 8. The last payment received by Plaintiff towards the Judgment Note was in August of 2008. 9. In 2008, Defendant and his wife sought to sell the Quizno's franchise and as part of that sale and were required to obtain a release from Plaintiff in order to complete the settlement. See e-mail exchange from Defendant dated July 28, 2008 attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit B. 10. Defendant requested that Plaintiff provide the "equipment release" and to provide him with the terms of the remaining money owed. See Exhibit B. 11. It is believed and therefore averred that Defendant's reference to "the remaining amount owed" concerned the original Judgment Note that he had executed as President of Frommco, Inc., in favor of Plaintiff. 12. The only outstanding debt due to Plaintiff from Frommco, Inc., or Defendant was the original Judgment Note dated June 1, 2003. 13. Defendant indicated that in exchange for the release, he would "begin to make personal payments on 9/1 as [he has] been doing in the past." See Exhibit B. 14. It is believed and therefore averred that Defendant's statement that he would begin to make personal payments concerned payments towards the Judgment Note executed by Frommco, Inc., in favor of Plaintiff. 15. Defendant e-mail amounts to a surety concerning the Judgment Note owed by Frommco, Inc., to Plaintiff. 16. Payments had been made on the loan and a balance remains of $35,552.71. WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs demands judgment against Defendant in the amount of $35,552.71 in addition to interest and costs of suit.
