Dear Mr. Taylor:
Please note this firm's representation of Tara Taylor.
In accordance with Paragraph 4 of the Post-Nuptial Agreement dated and signed by you
on April 9, 2002, you are to sign a deed conveying your interest in the property at 653 Belvedere
Street, Carlisle to Tara. My client advises that you have indicated to her that you refuse to sign
the deed. Your refusal to meet with her before a Notary Public is also precluding her from
transferring the Honda Accord to you pursuant to Paragraph 7 of the Agreement.
This letter will serve as notice to you that you have twenty (20) days from the date of this
letter by which to sign the deed that is in Tara's possession in front of a Notary Public and to
cooperate in her efforts to transfer the title to the Honda Accord to you. If you do not sign the
deed and cooperate with her in the conveyance of the Honda Accord, legal action will be taken
against you to obtain an Order compelling your execution of the deed and cooperation. Since
you are clearly in violation of the provisions of the April 9, 2002 Agreement, you will be
responsible for paying any and all attorney's fees and costs incurred by my client in accordance
with Paragraph 20 of the Agreement.
Finally, I have been advised that you have been making both disparaging and untrue
comments about Tara in front of your children. I can advise you without hesitation that no Judge
in Cumberland County would tolerate such behavior by a parent who is to be guided by his
children's best interests. I remind you of your obligations under the Custody Agreement that you
signed. If you continue with disparaging and untrue comments, appropriate action will be taken.
Yours truly,
Keith O. Brenneman

Both parents shall provide each other with telephone numbers and locations where the
children will be during overnight visits, vacations and holidays. Both parents shall permit open
and unrestrained contact to each other and between them by both telephone and in person for
purposes of communicating to accomplish the purposes and requirements of this Agreement.
Both parties will be prompt for ail custody exchanges and will provide the other party with at
least twenty-four hour notice if unable to keep any scheduled custodial period.
IV. RELOCATION.
The parties have negotiated the custody and partial custody portions of this Agreement
based upon existing circumstances, and in particular, based upon Wife's and Husband's current
residences in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. If either parent desires to establish a residence
more than fifty (50) miles from his or her present residence, he or she shall give the other parent
at least ninety (90) days' written notice in advance of the proposed move, in order to give the
parties the opportunity to confer, prior to the relocation, and to establish a mutually satisfactory
arrangement as to custody and partial custody in light of the changed circumstances. In the event
that the parties are unable to reach an agreement, then the Court of Common P~as of
Cumberland County shall have jurisdiction over them to fashion an appropriate custody order.

Dear Mr. Taylor:
Please note this firm's representation of Tara Taylor.
In accordance with Paragraph 4 of the Post-Nuptial Agreement dated and signed by you
on April 9, 2002, you are to sign a deed conveying your interest in the property at 653 Belvedere
Street, Carlisle to Tara. My client advises that you have indicated to her that you refuse to sign
the deed. Your refusal to meet with her before a Notary Public is also precluding her from
transferring the HondaAccord to you pursuant to Paragraph 7 of the Agreement.
This letter will serve as notice to you that you have twenty (20) days from the date of this
letter by which to sign the deed that is in Tara's possession in front of a Notary Public and to
cooperate in her efforts to transfer the title to the Honda Accord to you. If you do not sign the
deed and cooperate with her in the conveyance of the Honda Accord, legal action will be taken
against you to obtain an Order compelling your execution of the deed and cooperation. Since
you are clearly in violation of the provisions of the April 9, 2002 Agreement, you will be
responsible for paying any and all attorney's fees and costs incurred by my client in accordance
with Paragraph 20 of the Agreement.
Finally, I have been advised that you have been making both disparaging and untrue
comments about Tara in front of your children. I can advise you without hesitation that no Judge
in Cumberland County would tolerate such. behavior by a parent who is to be guided by his
children's best interests. I remind you of your obligations under the Custody Agreement that you
signed. If you continue with disparaging and untrue comments, appropriate action will be taken.
Yours truly,
Keith O. Brenneman
