understanding" between Walker and Employer. Walker specifically denies tj# t Zeplin
described the payment of money as anything other than a bonus. By way of
answer, Zeplin told Walker that he was paying her additional sums of moneyllas a bonus
to compensate her if the business were to be sold and she lost her job. Zepli? also told
Walker that a further benefit of the sale would be that she could collect
compensation when she lost her job.
6. DENIED. It is specifically denied that any oral understanding occurred
between the parties that this "bonus" would "have to be returned." There Is no
consideration for the payment of the bonus and thus there was no oral

fiber 9, not
).00 and
Walker
of some
"oral understanding."
9. To the extent that this averment represents a CONCLUSION Of LAW,
it is DENIED that there was any contract between Walker and either Employer or
Zeplin. To the extent that it may be deemed factual, it is DENIED that any
understanding or agreement was made between Employer and Walker or Zeplin and
Walker. It is specifically DENIED that Walker has any obligation or legal i
to return any money paid to her by Employer.
NEW MATTER
10. Walker was an employee-at-will of Employer.
11, In an employment-at-will state, such as Pennsylvania, the la\ ?Jdoes not

specific promises concerning continued work in exchange for specific
12. Employer made no promises to Walker about continued
13. Zeplin made no promises to Walker about continued work.
14. Zeplin told Walker that after the business was sold she would have no
work.
15. The money paid by Employer to Walker, over and above hek regular
salary, was described to Walker by Zeplin as a "bonus."
16. Zeplin paid himself a bonus of $10,600.97 at the same time(Walker
received the payments.
17. Zeplin paid another employee, Sonata Tsoukatos, a bonus
! the same
time Walker and Zeplin received the payments.
18. Walker received the gross sum of $ 3,075.26 in each of three
19. Walker paid her employee share of tax on the full amount of th? bonus
received.
20. After the deduction of taxes, Walker actually received $ 6,925
21. The 2004 W-2 statement prepared by Employer and sent to W
included these sums as wages paid during tax year 2004.
22. At a prior hearing in this matter, Zeplin testified under oath "t the
approximately $9,000.00 represented salary paid to Walker for the months op October,
November, and December, 2004.
23. At a prior hearing in this matter, Zeplin testified under oath t*at the
$9,000.00 represented salary paid to Walker for her agreement to continue
until the business was sold.
24. If the alleged agreement was that the money would be paid btk if the
business did not sell during 2004, then Walker made no promise and the
agreement was without consideration.
25. If the alleged agreement was that the money would be paid *ck if the
business did not sell during 2004, then Walker had no control over the salelland the
alleged agreement was no agreement at all.
26. Walker worked through early November and was paid her salary until
her termination, with the exception of the final week of pay.
27. At no time after October 1, 2004, did Employer cease paying Walker on
the theory that she had already been paid for this same period of time.
28. Employer refused to pay Walker for all of the time worked durog the
final week of her employment.
29. When Walker complained about Zeplin's reduction of her pay, ?he was
fired by Zeplin.
30. Walker had no understanding, oral or otherwise, that she woul# have any
obligation to return any portion of the bonus for any reason.
31. Even if an oral contract existed, which Walker specifically
Employer's action of terminating Walker effectively prevented her from con*leting her
alleged promise of working until the business was sold.
32. Zeplin turned down at least one offer to buy his business in
33. As a matter of law, one party to a contract cannot collect for
performance of the contract when his own actions prevented the
34. Employer's bringing of this action was arbitrary, vexatious, qk in bad
faith and Walker is therefore entitled to a reasonable counsel fee as part of t?xable costs
of this matter, pursuant to 42 Pa. C.S.A. §2503(9).
WHEREFORE, Defendant Tammy Walker respectfully requests
grant judgment in her favor and against Plaintiff, together with all costs,
reasonable attorney's fee.

13. Admitted.
14. It is denied that Zeplin told Walker that after the business was sold she would

18. Admitted.
19. Admitted.
20. Admitted.
21. Admitted.
22. Admitted in part. It is admitted that Zeplin testified under oath that salary was

31. Denied. It is denied that the employer took any action that prevented Walker
from completing her alleged promise of returning the advance if the business was not sold.
32. Admitted.
33. No answer is required as it is a statement of law which the Plaintiff disputes
as being accurate.
-3-
34. Denied. It is denied that the employer's bringing of this action was arbitrary,
vexatious, or in bad faith and it is further denied that Walker is entitled to reasonable counsel
