The parties shall submit themselves, their minor Children, and any other individuals deemed necessary by the evaluator, to a custody evaluation to be preformed by Arnold Shienvold, Ph.D., or other professional selected by agreement between the parties. The purpose of the evaluation shall be to obtain independent professional recommendations concerning on-going custody arrangements which will best serve the needs of the Children.

All costs of the evaluation shall be shared equally between the parties. 2. The parties shall participate in a course of co-parenting counseling with Kasey Shienvold, Psy.D. The purpose of the counseling shall be to assist the parties in establishing sufficient communication and cooperation to enable them to effectively co-parent their Children. The costs of the co-parenting counseling shall be shared equally between the parties. The parties shall contact the counselor's office as soon as possible following the custody conciliation conference to schedule the initial sessions. 3. Pending completion of the custody evaluation and receipt of the evaluator's recommendations, the parties shall share having legal custody of the Children, the Mother shall have primary physical custody of the Children and the Father shall have partial physical custody of the Children in accordance with the following schedule: Beginning immediately, the Father shall have custody of the Children every Tuesday and Thursday evening from 4:30 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. In addition, for the first two alternating weekends, from December 16 through December 17 and from December 30 through December 31, 2006, the Father shall have custody of the Children from Saturday at 9:00 a.m. through Sunday at 7:00 p.m. Beginning on January 12, 2007, and continuing on alternating weekends (pending receipt of the custody evaluator's recommendations and further Order of Court or agreement of the parties) the Father shall have custody of the Children from Friday at 4:30 p.m. through Sunday at 7:00 p.m. 4. Over the Christmas holiday in 2006, the Father shall have custody of the Children on December 24 from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m., the Mother shall have custody from December 24 at 4:00 p.m. through Christmas day at 11:00 a.m., and the Father shall have custody from Christmas day at 11:00 a.m. through December 26 at 11:00 a.m. 5.

DEWEIJER Defendant IN CUSTODY CUSTODY CONCILIATION SUMMARY REPORT IN ACCORDANCE WITH CUMBERLAND COUNTY RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE 1915.3-8, the undersigned Custody Conciliator submits the following report: The pertinent information concerning the Children who are the subjects of this litigation is as follows: NAME DATE OF BIRTH CURRENTLY IN CUSTODY OF Kyle C. Shoen April 19, 2004 Mother Ryan T. Shoen March 29, 2006 Mother 2. A custody conciliation conference was held on December 4, 2006, with the following individuals in attendance: The Father, Jay C. Shoen, with his counsel Sandra Meilton, Esquire and the Mother, Mar a H. Deweyer, with her counsel, Maria P. Cognetti, Esquire. 3. The parties agreed to entry of an order in the form as attached, with the exception of the temporary overnight partial custody schedule for the Father, pending completion of the custody evaluation, which is the recommendation of the conciliator. The Father filed this petition seeking a shared physical custody arrangement and pending the evaluation believes that a shared schedule should be established or, at the very least, a full alternating weekend schedule with consecutive overnights. The Father indicates that he has experience caring for the Children and there are no circumstances justifying a limitation on overnights. On the other hand, the Mother believes that it is not in the Children's best interest to have any overnight periods of custody with the Father based on the young age of one of the Children and her concerns about the Father's parenting abilities (to which the Father objects). At the very least, the Mother believes that there should be no more than one overnight on alternating weekends pending the custody evaluation. As the parties were unable to reach an agreement as to an interim custody schedule pending completion of the evaluation, the conciliator submits the attached proposed order which provides for alternating weekend periods of custody with the Father, to begin with one overnight for the first two times and expanding to two overnights on the alternating weekends thereafter until the custody evaluation is complete. It is expected that one or both counsel may contact the Court to object to the conciliator's recommendation and to further address the issue of the interim overnight partial custody with the Father prior to implementation of the expanded weekend to two overnights which is recommended to occur on January 12. The interim schedule recommended by the conciliator is based upon the impression, without the benefit of a hearing, that both parties are able to provide adequate care for the Children overnight, the fact that the eight month old child has been on formula since July 2006, and the benefit of obtaining experience with a minimal overnight custody schedule for the Father for assessment during the evaluation process. 4. The conciliator recommends an order in the form as attached also reflecting the parties' agreements as to co-parenting counseling, a custody evaluation, holiday custody arrangements and the passport issue, which was previously the subject of a Petition for Emergency Relief.

This Court previously entered an Order in this matter on December 20, 2006, under which the parties were to obtain a custody evaluation by Arnold Shienvold, Ph.D. and participate in a course of co-parenting counseling. Pending the evaluation, the Mother had primary physical custody of the Children and the Father had partial custody. Pursuant to the prior Order, following completion of the custody evaluation, a follow-up conciliation conference was scheduled. The parties were unable to reach an agreement at the conference and it will be necessary to schedule a hearing. 4. The Father's position on custody is as follows: the Father believes that an equally shared custody schedule would best serve the Children's needs and interests. The Father believes the Children have a strong attachment to both parties and should spend as much time as possible with each parent. On the issues to be addressed at the hearing, the Father objects to the Mother removing the Children from the United States to visit relatives until such time as there has been a resolution of the custody issues and an Order reflecting the resolution. In addition, the Father favors the Children remaining in their existing daycare at this time, although the Father expressed a willingness to explore other options. 5. The Mother's position on custody is as follows: the Mother believes that the Children are too young to thrive on an equally shared custody arrangement and believes it would be in their best interests to remain in her primary custody. The Mother proposes a change in at least the older Child's daycare as she does not feel that the current provider offers the most beneficial environment for the Child at this time. The Mother also is willing to explore daycare options for the Child. The Mother would like to take the Children with her to Holland to visit relatives and does not believe a travel restriction is warranted. 6. The conciliator recommends an Order in the form as attached scheduling a hearing in this matter. It is anticipated that the hearing will require at least one-half day. J:IA c)o J-0 Date Dawn S.

BY THE COURT, aria Cognetti, Esquire For the Plaintiff Xandra Meilton, Esquire For the Defendant J :rlm ' IX 8:-,n v !) 6 ? 5-Y5-3 ciar I Memorandum of Understanding Jay C. Shoen and Marja H. Deweyer Jay and Mara have reached the following agreements regarding the custody of their children, Kyle C. Shoen and Ryan T. Shoen. Legal Custody: The parents agree that they shall equally share legal custody of Kyle and Ryan. Physical Custody: The parents have agreed to equally share the physical custody of their children. The agreed upon schedule is one in which over a two week period of time the children are with each parent for seven days. The ultimate schedule will have the children during week one with one parent on Monday and Tuesday overnight and the weekend from Friday until Monday, and with the other parent on Wednesday and Thursday overnight during that week. During week two, the children will be with the second parent on Monday and Tuesday overnight and from Friday until Monday. During the second week, the other parent will have the children on Wednesday and Thursday overnight. The schedule will then repeat every two weeks. Currently, the children are primarily with their mother. They spend alternating weekends with their father from Friday until Sunday and every Tuesday and Thursday evening. In order to create the new schedule without making an abrupt change that might create instability for the boys, the parents have agreed to proceed as follows: 1. Beginning with the weekend of January 11, 2007, and on all subsequent alternating weekends, the children will be with their father from Friday when he picks them up from daycare until Monday morning when he returns them to daycare. 2. Beginning on the week of February 10, 2007, the children shall remain in their father's custody overnight on February 14, February 19, February 28 and March 4. Additionally, Jay shall have custody on the alternating Tuesday and Thursday evenings as outlined by the current schedule. 3. Beginning on the week of March 9, the two week schedule of shared custody shall begin. Marja shall have the children on Monday, March 10 and Tuesday, March 11, Jay shall have them on Wednesday, March 12 and Thursday, March 13 and Marja shall have the children on the weekend from Friday, March 14 to Monday, March 17. During the following week, Jay will have the children on Monday and Tuesday overnight and on the weekend from Friday until Monday. The parents shall share custody on the two week alternating schedule from that point forward. 4. All transfers of custody shall take place at the children's school or daycare. If the daycare or school is not in session, the parent who has custody shall bring the children to the other parent's residence at 8:00 a.m. of the morning of the transfer. Holiday Schedule: 1. Dutch Holidays: Marja shall have custody of the children from 8:00 a.m. of the day of the celebration until 8:00 a.m. the next morning for St. Nicholas Day and Queens Day 2. Christmas: A. In even years, mother shall have custody of the children from 4:00 p.m. on Christmas Eve until 2:00 p.m. on Christmas Day (segment one). Father shall have custody from 2:00 p.m. on Christmas Day until 4:00 p.m. on December 260i (segment two), at which time the regular custody schedule shall resume. In odd years, the custody during the two segments of Christmas shall reverse such that father shall have segment one and mother shall have segment two. B. Additionally, the parents agree that within the next three years, mother may elect to take the children to Europe for one of her two (2), two- week vacations during a period of time that includes the entire Christmas holiday. If mother elects to exercise this option, then father shall have the option to take the children on a vacation, not to exceed two weeks, during the Christmas holiday within three years of mother's trip. However, it is understood by father that utilizing vacation time in the greater Harrisburg area during the Christmas season would not constitute a reason to change the basic Christmas schedule. On the other hand, plans such as taking a vacation with the boys to Disney World or a cruise to the Caribbean would be consistent with the intent of this agreement. 3. Thanksgiving: Beginning in 2008, and all subsequent even years, the children will be with father from 9:00 a.m. Thursday until 9:00 a.m. on Friday. The children shall be with their mother in all odd numbered years. 4. Easter: Beginning in 2008 and all subsequent even numbered years the children shall be with their mother from 7:00 p.m. the Saturday before Easter, until the Monday following Easter at 8:00 a.m. In all odd years beginning in 2009 the children shall be with their father from 7:00 p.m. the Saturday before Easter until the Monday following Easter at 8:00 a.m. 5. Memorial Day and Labor Day: There is no change to the regular weekend schedule for these holidays, except that the children shall remain with the parent with whomever they spent the weekend through Monday night at 7:00 p.m. 6. Father's Day and Mother's Day: The children shall be with either their father or mother on the respective Sunday holiday from 9:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m. 7. Children's Birthday: The non-custodial parent shall be allowed up to a two- hour visit with the child. The specific time of the visit shall be determined by mutual agreement. Transportation: Although most transfers of custody will occur from the daycare or school, when exchanges need to occur outside of the times of school or daycare, the parent receiving custody shall be responsible for picking-up the child at the designated time from the other parent's home, or another mutually agreeable location. Vacation Schedule: Each parent will be allowed vacation time with the children in an amount equal to that amount of vacation which is defined in their employment contracts. Currently, Marja is allowed six weeks of vacation per year and Jay has five weeks of vacation time. Notice of the intention to utilize vacation time with the children must be provided to the other parent at least three weeks in advance. Any conflicts regarding vacation time shall be resolved through mutual agreement or mediation, as defined below. The parents agree that vacation is not to be taken over major holidays without mutual agreement. Marja shall be allowed to take the children to Europe two times per year for no greater than a two week period of time. In general, vacation time with either parent can be taken in no greater than two-week blocks of time. School and Daycare: The parents have agreed to immediately change the location of the children's daycare to Kindercare in Camp Hill. The parents agree that beginning with the 2008-2009 school year, Kyle shall be enrolled at the Harrisburg Academy, in their pre-K program, for one academic year. It is the expressed intent and decision of the parents that the children attend the Camp Hill School District when they each begin kindergarten. The only reason that they would consider enrolling either child at school outside of the Camp Hill District would be if there was an exceptional need of the child that could not be met within the public school. In such an instance, the parents would have to mutually agree upon an appropriate private school placement. Religion: The parents agree to continue to raise their children in the Catholic faith and to cooperate in insuring that all requirements associated with that practice, i.e. first communion and confirmation, are met. Telephone Contact: The parents shall allow liberal, reasonable telephone contact with the non- custodial parent during their periods of custody. Passports: Each of the children has a passport. Currently, the passports are in the possession of Marja. As a general principal, each parent agrees that they shall insure that the passports are in the possession of the parent traveling with the children well in advance of any trip with the children. It is further agreed that the parent who has most recently traveled with the children shall maintain possession of the passports until such time as the other parent requests them for the purpose of traveling with the children. Upon such request, assuming that the request is made within the parameters for travel outlined in this agreement, the passports shall be given to the traveling parent. Conflict Resolution: In the event that disagreements arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this custody stipulation, the parents agree to engage in a minimum of one mediation session prior to initiating legal action to resolve their disagreement. The cost of the mediation will be shared equally, regardless of which party requests the session. If the session does not result in a resolution of the problem, each parent is free to pursue legal remedies. fitness -fitness Jay-Ckoen Marja H. Dewey r o n ? ? e ? FEB o 7 zooa'? JAY C.

DeWeyer, by and through her counsel, Howett, Kissinger & Holst, P.C., who hereby files her Pretrial Statement Pursuant to Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1920.33: I• FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY. H. DeWeyer ("Wife"), also known as Marja H DeWeijer, age 38, born May 8, 1970, married on February 13, 2004 in New York City.' It was the first marriage for both parties, producing two minor children, Kyle C. Shoen, age 4, born April 19, 2004, and Ryan T. Shoen, age 2, born March 29, 2006. The parties presently share legal and physical custody pursuant to an order of Court dated February 11, 2008. Both parties are in excellent health, and each is capable of maintaining employment. Neither party has any significant non-marital assets of which to speak. The parties separated on August 1, 2006, for marriage totaling two and one half years. Plaintiff, Jay C. Shoen ("Husband"), age 43, born August 5, 1965, and Defendant, Marja 'Husband and Wife met in 1998 through their employment at Philips Electronics. At the time, they both worked for Philips in New York City. Husband no longer is employed by Philips. Wife, who is originally from the Netherlands, has both a bachelor's degree and an MBA. She is presently employed by Philips, her employer since 1998, and works out of its New Jersey office. However, for the majority of the week she is able to work from home, but, from time-to- time, she must travel for business. Wife presently resides in Camp Hill, Cumberland County, and during marriage the parties relocated to the Central Pennsylvania area inasmuch as Husband is originally from this area, and his family continues to reside here. Wife's father and brother reside in the Netherlands, and Wife and the children travel several times a year to Europe to see her family. From her employment at Philips, Wife earns approximately Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00) per year. She contributed to a 401(x) plan with Philips. Husband, also a college graduate, is employed by Health South, from which he earns approximately Eighty Thousand Dollars ($80,000.00) per year. He also continues to reside in Cumberland County. As with Wife, Husband also has retirement benefits in an account maintained by Schwab. Following separation the parties sold their marital residence and placed the net proceeds in an escrow account. Husband initiated the above divorce action by filing a Complaint for No-Fault Divorce and Property Division on or about September 14, 2006. On or about June 30, 2008, Husband filed his Motion for Appointment of Divorce Master, and the Court entered an Order on July 3 , 2008 appointing E. Robert Elicker,11, Esquire as master. 2 II.
