The Agreement provided for an immediate lump sum payment to Petitioner and Petitioner's attorneys, and 420 guaranteed monthly payments to Petitioner each in the amount of $1,395.00, commencing May I, 1987, through and including April I, 2022, and for the rest of Petitioner's lifetime thereafter.

He desires to sell the Assigned Payments to Structured Asset Funding, LLC. 2 b. He is fifty-three (53) years old and married to Cassandra Phillips Montgomery. c. The transaction contemplated by the Purchase Agreement is in his and his family's best interest, it will improve the quality of their lives, and he has thoroughly considered all of the ramifications of the transaction. He has determined that the transfer is fair and reasonable, and that it will not subject he or his dependents to economic hardship now or in the future. d. He is in need of the money to use for repairs to his home, mainly to repair the garage and remodel two bathrooms. e. He has been advised to obtain independent professional advice. 8. Petitioner has been provided, and has acknowledged receipt at least 10 days prior to receipt of the Purchase Agreement, of the "Transfer Disclosure" required by 40 P .S. S 4003 (a)(2) attached and incorporated as Exhibit "E." As set forth in greater detail in the Transfer Disclosure, the following terms have been disclosed to the Petitioner: a. The amounts and due dates of the structured settlement payments to be transferred are: 208 monthly payments, each in the amount of $1,395.00, beginning with the payment on January I, 2005, through to and including April 1, 2022. b. The aggregate amount of the structured settlement payments to be transferred is $290,160.00. c. The discounted present value of the payments transferred using the most recently published applicable federal rate for determining the value of an annuity is $207,775.35. d. The federal discount rate used to determine the discounted present value is the effective annual rate of 4.20% as of 12/04. e. The gross amount payable to Petitioner in exchange of the transferred payments is $116,056.22. f. The good faith itemized listing of all broker's commiSSions, service charges, legal fees, notary fees, costs etc. deductible from the gross amount otherwise payable to the Petitioner is: $2,500.00 for transaction/legal costs. 3 g. The net amount payable to Petitioner after deduction of the above commissions, legal fees, etc., is $113,556.22. (With the exception of $103,751.22 (the "payoff amount" effective on or before December 30, 2004) that will be deducted from the net amount payable and will be paid to Stone Street Services, Inc. ("Stone Street"), to enable Petitioner to obtain Stone Street's release of its encumbrance on a portion of the payments set forth in paragraph 8a above relating to a prior transfer transaction that was consummated prior to the effective date of the Pennsylvania Structured Settlement Protection Act. The exact Payoff Amount to be paid and remitted to Stone Street by Transferee on Petitioner's behalf will be determined on the closing date for this transaction). h. The quotient is 54.65%. 1. The amount of penalty and aggregate amount of any liquidated damages inclusive of penalties payable by the Petitioner in the event of any breach of the Purchase Agreement by the Petitioner is: $0.00. J. He was strongly urged to consult with an attorney who could advise him of the potential tax consequences of the transaction. 9. Petitioner has been provided, and has acknowledged receipt prior to entering into the Purchase Agreement, of the written "Important Notice" in bold print 12-point type required by 40 P.S. ~ 4003 (b). A true and correct copy of Petitioner's acknowledgement of the receipt of the ~ 4003 (b) notice is attached as Exhibit "F." 10. Petitioner acknowledges that he has been advised to obtain independent professional advice regarding the tax consequences of the transaction, however he has declined such advice, as further acknowledged in the Affidavit of Independent Professional Advice ("IPA") attached as Exhibit "G." II. On January 24, 2002, "The Victims of Terrorism Tax Relief Act," PL 107-134, 115 Stat. 2427, was enacted, which in part, amends the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The Act amends 26 U.S.C.A. ~ 5891 and now provides for favorable tax treatment of "structured settlement payment factoring transactions" that are approved in advance by a qualified court 4 order approving the transaction. 26 U.S.C.A. 9 5891 (b)(I). A "structured settlement payment factoring transaction" is defined as "a transfer of structured settlement payment rights (including portions of structured settlement payments) made for consideration by means of sale, assignment, pledge, or other form of encumbrance or alienation for consideration." 26 U.S.C.A. 9 5891 (c)(3)(A) (parentheses in original). A "structured settlement" is defined as an arrangement established by "agreement for the periodic payment of damages excludable from the gross income of the recipient under [Internal Revenue Code] section 104 (a)(2)..." and under which the periodic payments are "of the character described in subparagraphs (A) and (B) of section 130(c)(2)." A true and correct copy of 26 U.S.C.A. 95891 is attached hereto as Exhibit "H." 12. 26 U.S.C.A. S 5891 (d)(I) was also added by the Act and provides: [I]f the applicable requirements of sections 72, 104(a)(I), 104(a)(2), 130, and 461(h) were satisfied at the time the structured settlement involving structured settlement payment rights was entered into, the subsequent occurrence of a structured settlement factoring transaction shall not affect the application of the provisions of such sections to the parties to the structured settlement (including an assignee under a qualified assignment under section 130) in any taxable year. (Emphasis added). Accordingly, a favorable tax result is in effect at the time the Payee and the Transferee propose to enter into the Purchase Agreement. 13. Since a favorable tax result is in effect, approvals of the Settlement Obligor and the Annuity Issuer to the proposed transfer are not required. 40 P.S. S 4003 (a)(5)(i)(A). 14. The structured settlement did not arise out of a workers' compensation claim. 5 15. Petitioner has seriously contemplated this transaction, and due to his personal circumstances and needs, believes that this assignment is in his best interests, taking into account the welfare and support of Petitioner's dependents. 16. Petitioner acknowledges that counsel, Jones, Gregg, Creehan & Gerace, LLP has not been engaged to render professional advice with respect to the advisability, or the implications of the transfer, including the tax ramifications of the transfer. Counsel has been engaged solely to prepare and present the within Petition, based upon Petitioner's independent determination and/or professional advice obtained from others, with respect to the advisability and ramifications of the transfer. WHEREFORE, Petitioner prays that this Honorable Court grant this Petition to Transfer Structured Settlement Payment Rights. Respectfully submitted, Jones, Gregg, Creehan & Gerace, LLP By: /2e~ ~[,Jl______ Robert L.
