WHEREAS, the parties hereto are now Wife and Husband, having been lawfully
married to each other on May 30, 1981, in Franklin County, Pennsylvania;
WHEREAS, there have been two (2) children born of this marriage between
Husband and Wife. Both children are over the age of 18.
WHEREAS, the parties hereto are now living separate and apart and desire to
enter into an Agreement respecting their property rights regardless of the actual
separation or other character thereof and their other rights, including the Wife's right to
support and maintenance;
WHEREAS, both and each of the parties hereto have been advised of their legal
rights and the implications of this Agreement and the legal consequences that may and
will ensue from the execution hereof, and each has had the opportunity to consult with
his or her own competent legal counsel independent of each other;
WHEREAS, each party warrants, as part of the consideration of this Agreement,
that each has fully and completely disclosed all information of a financial nature
requested by the other, and that no information of such nature has been subject to
distortion or in any manner being misrepresented; and
WHEREAS, other than as set forth herein, Wife desires finally and forever to
relinquish all of her rights to be supported by Husband and all of her rights of dower,
rights as heir or surviving spouse or otherwise, actual, currently existing, or inchoate, in
and to the real and personal property of the Husband, now owned by him or which in
the future may be owned by him, and a:l rights to counsel fees, or expenses and, other
1
than as set forth herein, Husband likewise wishes to relinquish all his rights of curtsey,
rights as heir or surviving spouse or otherwise, actual and currently existing or inchoate
in and to the real and personal estate of the Wife, currently owned by her or which she
may own in the future;
NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto intending to be legally bound hereby do
hereby mutually agree as follows:
1. Separation. Husband and Wife do hereby mutually agree and consent to live
separate and apart and do further agree that it shall be lawful for the Husband and Wife
at all times hereafter to live separate and apart from each other, and to reside, from time
to time, at such place or places as they respectfully shall deem fit, free from any control
or restraint or interference, direct or indirect, by each other.
2. No Molestation, Harassment or Interference. Neither party shall molest,
harass or interfere with the other or compel or endeavor to compel the other to cohabit
or dwell with him or her by any means whatsoever.
3. Mutual Power and Estate Waiver. Except as otherwise expressly set forth
herein, in which event such express provision shall take precedence over this
paragraph, the parties hereto intend that from and after the date of this Agreement,
neither shall have any spouse's rights in property or estate of the other, and to that end
both parties waive, relinquish and forbear the rights of dower of curtsey, rights to inherit,
rights to claim or take the Husband or Wife's or family exemption or allowance, to be
vested with letters of administration or letters testamentary, or to take against any will of
the other, and each agrees with the other if either should die intestate, his or her share
shall descend to vest in his or her heirs at law, personal representatives, and next of
kin, excluding the other as though he or she had died a widow or widower. And each
further agrees that should the other die testate, his or her property shall descend to and
vest in those persons set forth in the other's Last Will and Testament as though the
spouse so designated as beneficiary had predeceased the testator. The parties further
agree that they may and can hereafter, as though married, without any joinder by him or
2
her, sell, convey, transfer or encumber any and all real estate and personal property
which either of them now or hereafter own or possess and further agree that the
recording of this Agreement shall be conclusive evidence to all of his or her right to do
so. The said Husband and Wife do hereby irrevocably grant, each to the other, should
the exercise of this power hereby given be necessary, the right and the power to
appoint one or more times any person or persons whom the Husband or Wife shall
designate to be the attorney-in-fact for the other, in their name and in their stead, to
execute and acknowledge any deed or deeds, releases, quit claims, or satisfactions,
under seal or otherwise, to enable either party hereto to alienate his or her real personal
property, but without any power to impose personal liability for breach of warranty or
otherwise. Each of the parties hereto further waives any right of election contained in
Chapter 22 of the Pennsylvania Probate Estates and Fiduciaries Code, and any right to

agrees that neither shall hereafter be under any legal obligations to support the other,
pay any expenses for maintenance, funeral, burial, or otherwise for the other, and to
