20. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Marriage Settlement Agreement shall be
incorporated into the Decree of Divorce entered by the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland
County, Pennsylvania. The Agreement shall not merge in such decree, but shall in all respects
survive the same and be forever binding and conclusive upon the parties. All provisions herein
shall be binding upon both parties and enforceable by either party in accordance with the laws of
this Commonwealth.
21. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and declares that he or she respectively:
A. Is fully and completely informed as to the facts relating to the subject-matter of this
Agreement, and as to the rights and liabilities of both parties, and as to the holdings and assets of
both parties;
B. Enters into this Agreement free from fraud, undue influence, coercion or duress of any
kind;
C. Has given careful and mature thought in the making of this Agreement;
D. Has carefully read each provision of this Agreement;
E. Fully and completely understands each provision of this Agreement;
F. Agrees that the provisions of this Agreement are fair, adequate, equitable, satisfactory
and executed by both parties as final settlement and satisfaction of all claims and demands of any
nature whatsoever, and after full and fair disclosure by the parties of all facts bearing upon and
pertaining to the provisions of this Agreement including both parties' net worth.
After consultation with their respective counsel regarding the options for use of legal
services in divorce, the parties elected to use a Collaborative Law process to make the decisions
necessary under the circumstances. Prior to commencing negotiations, the parties waived formal
discovery unless they agreed otherwise. The collaborative law participation agreement under
which the parties operated required the parties to commit to full and fair disclosure of all assets,
incomes, debts and other information needed for full and complete settlement. Each party had the
opportunity to request information and receive copies of any documents requested including, but
not limited to, statements regarding investment, retirement, checking and savings accounts, deeds
and real estate settlement sheets. Neither party wishes to make or append hereto any further
enumeration or statement. Each party acknowledges that he or she is sufficiently familiar with the
assets and income of the other to make an informed decision regarding the content of this
Gamble MSA - Final Draft 8/24/06
7
agreement. Each party warrants that he or she is not aware of any marital asset which is not
identified in this agreement. Each party understands that he/she had the right to obtain from the
other party a complete inventory or list of all property that either or both parties owned at the
time of separation or currently and that each party had the right to have all property valued by
means of appraisals or otherwise. In arriving at the agreement set forth in this agreement,
Husband and Wife have applied their individual standards of reasonableness and acceptability.
The conclusions they have reached are based in part on the respect and regard for each other.
From time to time, in order to measure the appropriateness of their conclusions, the parties have
considered what might happen if the matter were adjudicated in court but they have elected to
make their final agreement without regard to whether a court might have adjudicated issues in the
same manner as they have agreed here. Husband and Wife represented to one another throughout
the collaborative law process that their negotiations were in good faith and that each had fully and
completely disclosed all financial information necessary or requested in order to resolve the
parties' property and support rights fairly. By their signature on this Agreement, they reaffirm
those representations, upon which each of them has relied in making this Agreement.
The parties acknowledge that no independent investigation has been made by their
collaborative lawyers of the character or of the value of the parties' property, or the extent of debt
or amount of income of the parties, other than an inspection of income tax returns and the
documents voluntarily provided by the parties. The parties have instructed counsel that they
desire to make this agreement without any further independent investigation by counsel. The
parties understand and acknowledge that they are relying on their mutual disclosure in making this
agreement and that they are not relying on their counsel for any independent verifications of the
accuracy or completeness of these disclosures. Each party retains the right to assert a claim
against the other for failure to fully and fairly disclose his or her income, assets and liabilities, if it
is later determined that there has been a failure to disclose, including but not limited to, a claim of
constructive trust.
The provisions of this Agreement and their legal effect have been fully explained to the
parties by their respective counsel, Audrey E. Woloshin, Esquire ofKain, Brown & Roberts, LLP,
119 East Market Street, York, Pennsylvania for Husband and Constance P. Brunt, Esquire, 1820
Linglestown Road, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania for Wife. The parties acknowledge that each has
Gamble MSA - Final Draft 8/24/06

received independent legal advice from counsel of their selection and that they have been fully
informed as to their legal rights and obligations, including all rights available to them under the
Pennsylvania Divorce Code of 1980 as amended, and other applicable laws. Each party confirms
that he or she fully understand the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement and
believes them to be fair, just, adequate and reasonable under the existing facts and circumstances.
22. It is possible that in the future Husband and Wife may have disagreements with one
another concerning the interpretation of this Agreement and the resulting decree based on the
Agreement. In keeping with their decision to utilize the Collaborative Law process for resolution
ofthe issues set forth in this Agreement, the parties wish to not resort to any court before
reasonable non-court alternatives have first been attempted to resolve any future issues. They
have agreed that it is in their best interests to try to resolve informally any disputes that may arise
in the future as set forth below, except in the case of urgent or emergency situations which would
reasonably prevent such resolutions or make them impracticable, and they agree that they will
seek resolution by the following steps:
(a.) The parties first will attempt in good faith to confer with one another
directly in an attempt to come to a fair and amicable resolution of any issue.
(b.) If that is unsuccessful, then as the second step the parties agree to each
retain collaborative counsel and reconvene the collaborative process pursuant to the Collaborative
Participation Agreement previously signed by Husband and Wife and counsel in this proceeding, a
copy of which is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "A" and incorporated herein by reference.
(c.) If there is no resolution after these steps have been taken in good faith, either
party may commence contested court proceedings. If either party breaches any provisions of this
Agreement, the other party shall have the right to sue for damages for such breach, and the breaching
party shall be responsible for payment of legal fees and costs incurred by the other in enforcing his
or her rights under this Agreement or may seek such other remedies as may be available to him or her.
23. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties and there are no
representations, warranties, covenants, or undertakings other than those expressly set forth herein.
24. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

25. If any provisions of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall, nevertheless, continue in full force and
effect without being impaired or invalidated in any way.
26. The waiver of one party of any breach of this Agreement by the other party shall not be
deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breaches of any other provision of the Agreement.
27. This Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be binding upon
and shall inure to the benefit ofthe respective parties, heirs, executors, and administrators, successors
and assigns,
28. A modification or waiver of any other the provisions of this Agreement shall be effective
only if made in writing and executed with the same formality as this Agreement. The failure of either
party to insist upon strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not be
construed as a waiver of any subsequent default of the same or similar nature.
29. Both parties hereby agree to make, acknowledge and deliver any and all documents which
are necessary or appropriate to complete and perform the exchanges, transfers, agreements and
arrangements provided for and/or acquired by this Agreement.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have set their hands and seals the day and year first
above mentioned.
