MARITAL SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
TillS AGREEMENT is made effective as of the 8th day of October, 2001 by and
between Christine M. Shaw ("wife"), who resides at 1115 Gunstock Lane,
Mechanicsburg, PA, and Donald E. Shaw ("husband"), who resides at 3744 Fairway

WITNESSETH
WHEREAS, the parties were lawfully married to each other on September 1, 1986 in
Stewartstown, P A; and
WHEREAS, one child, Adam W. Shaw ("child"), d.o.b. March 29, 1991, was born of the
marriage; and
WHEREAS, differences exist between the parties and they have decided to live separate
and apart from each other and they intend this agreement to define the obligations with
respect to custody, visitation, and support of their child.
THEREFORE
1. The parties shall have shared legal custody of the child. Wife shall have the
primary physical custody, and husband shall have such reasonable and liberal physical
custody of the child as the parties shall from time to time mutually agree upon and
arrange.
2. The parties shall have the right to alter, modify and otherwise arrange for other
specific physical custody periods rather than the general provisions set forth above, and
on specific terms and conditions as are conducive to the best interests and welfare of the
child.
3. It is expressly understood by both parties that neither shall do anything directly or
indirectly to alienate the child's affection for the other or color the child's attitudes
toward the other. The parents agree to consult and cooperate with the other to advance his
health, emotional, and physical well-being, and to give and afford him the affection of
both parents and a sense of security.
4. Husband agrees to pay to wife, commencing with the date of this agreement, the
sum of Seven Hundred and Twenty Dollars ($720.00) per month for the care, support,
and maintenance of the child. This monthly amount shall never be less than the above
amount, and shall be further subject to change by mutual agreement of both parties
should there be a significant change (+/- 10%) in either's net income.
5. The husband's obligation to pay said support shall terminate when anyone of the
following events occur:

(a) The child reaches the age of eighteen (18) years or graduates from college,

and attend college, the support shall be renegotiated;
(b) Marriage of the child;
(c) The child's permanent residence away from the residence of the wife, except
for college;
(d) Death of the child;
(e) The child's entry into the Armed Forces of the United States,
6, Both parties agree that they will contribute to the extent that they are financially
able for the cost and expense of the child's undergraduate college education after taking
into account all scholarships, grants, loans and aid.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF
The parties hereto set their signatures. This Agreement is executed in duplicate and each
party acknowledges receipt of a duly executed copy.
