and in favor of the Plaintiffs without any prior notice or hearing based on a confession of
judgment contained in a written agreement or other paper allegedly signed by you:
1,400 square feet of commercial space known as Space 3, (the "Property")
currently being utilized as a business known as Custom Interiors of Camp
Hill and located at the shopping center commonly known as East Gate
Plaza, located at 5205 Simpson Ferry Road, Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania
17055.
42 Pa. C.S.A. ~ 2737 states in part as follows:
A debtor who has been incorrectly identified and had a
confession or judgment entered against him may petition the
court for costs and reasonable attorney fees as determined by
the court.
The written instructions regarding the procedure to follow to strike the judgments are not
prescribed in detail. For this reason, you should contact an attorney for assistance.
However, you are advised that Pa. R.C.P. 2959, provides as follows:
Striking Off or Opening Judgment; Pleadings; Procedure
(a)(l) Relief from a judgment by confession shall be sought by
petition. Except as provided in subparagraph (2), all grounds for
relief whether to strike off the judgment or to open it must be
asserted in a single petition. The petition may be filed in the county
in which the judgment was originally entered, in any county which
the judgment has been transferred or in any other county in which
the sheriff has received a writ of execution directed to the sheriff to
enforce the judgment
(2) The ground that the waiver of the due process rights of notice
and hearing was not voluntary, intelligent and knowing shall be
raised only
(i) in support of a further request for a stay of execution
where the court has been stayed execution despite the
timely filing of a petition for relief from the judgment
and the presentation of prima facie evidence of a
defense; and
(ii) as provided by Rule [of Civil Procedure] 2958.3 or Rule
2973.3.
(3) Ifwritten notice is served upon the petitioner pursuant to Rule
[of Civil Procedure] 2956.1 (c)(2)or Rule [of Civil Procedure] 2973.1 (c),
the petition shall be filed within thirty days after such service.
Unless the Defendant can demonstrate that there were compelling
reasons for the delay, a petition not timely filed shall be denied.
(b) If the petition states prima facie grounds for relief the court shall
issue a rule to show cause and may grant a stay of proceedings. After
being served with a copy of the petition the Plaintiff shall file an answer
on or before the return day of the rule. The return day of the rule shall
be fixed by the court by local rule or special order.
(c) A party waives all defenses and objections which are not included
in the petition or answer.
(d) The petition and the rule to show cause and the answer shall be
served as provided in Rule [of Civil Procedure] 440.
(e) The Court shall dispose of the rule on petition and answer, and on
any testimony, depositions, admissions and other evidence. The court
for cause shown may stay proceedings on the petition insofar as it seeks
to open the judgment pending disposition of the application to strike off
the judgment. If evidence is produced which in ajury trial would require
the issues to be submitted to the jury the court shall open judgment.
(f) The lien of the judgment or of any levy or attachment shall be
preserved while the proceedings to strike off or open the judgment are
pending.
(g)(l) A judgment shall not be stricken or opened because of a creditor's
failure to provide a debtor with instructions imposed by an existing
statute, if any, regarding procedures to follow to strike a judgment
or regarding any rights available to an incorrectly identified debtor.
(2) Subdivision (g)(l) shall apply to (1) judgments entered prior to the
effective date of subdivision (g) which have not been stricken or opened
as of the effective date and (2) judgments entered on or after the
effective date.

(1) To accelerate the whole or any part of the rent for the entire unexpired
balance of the term of this Lease, as well as all other charges, payments, costs and
expenses herein agreed to be paid by Tenant, and any rent or other charges,
payments, costs and expenses if so accelerated shall, in addition to any and all
installments of rent already due and payable and in arrears and/or any other charge
or payment herein reserved, included or agreed to be treated or collected as rent
and/or any other charge, expense or cost herein agreed to be paid by Tenant which
may be due and payable and in arrears, be deemed due and payable as if, by the
terms and provisions of this Lease, such accelerated rent and other charges,
payments, costs and expenses were on that date payable in advance.
(2) To enter the Demised Premises and without further demand or notice
proceed to distress and sale of goods, chattels and personal property there fOood,
to levy the rent and/or other charges herein payable as rent, and Tenant shall pay
all costs and officers' commissions, including watchmen's wages and sums
chargeable to Landlord, and further including the five percent (5%) chargeable by
the Act of Assembly as commissions to the constable or other person making the
levy, and, in such case, all costs, officers' commissions and other charges shall
immediately attach and become part of the claim of Landlord for rent, and any
tender of rent without said costs, commissions and charges made, after the
issuance of a warrant of distress, shall not be sufficient to satisfy the claim of
Landlord.
(3) To reenter the Demised Premises and remove all persons and all or
any property therefrom, either by summary dispossess proceedings or by any
suitable action or proceeding at law, or by force or othezwise, without being liable
to indictment, prosecution or damages therefore, and repossess and enjoy the
Demised Premises, together with all additions, alterations and improvements.
Upon recovering possession of the Demised Premises by reason of or based upon
or arising out of a default on the part of Tenant, Landlord may, at Landlord's
option, either terminate this Lease or make such alterations and repairs as may be
necessary in order to relet and/or operate the premises or any part or parts thereof,
either in Landlord's name or otherwise, for as term or terms which may at
- 18 -
Landlord's optiqn be less than or exceed the period which would otherwise have
constituted the balance of the term of this Lease to such person or persons as may
in Landlord's discretion seem best; upon each such reletting, all rents received by
Landlord from such reletting shall be applied: first, to the payment of any costs
and expenses of such reletting, including brokerage fees and attorney's fees and all
costs of such alterations and repairs; second, to the payment of rent due and
unpaid hereunder; and third, to the payment of any indebtedness other than then
rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; and the residue, if any, shall be held
by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as it may become due and
payable hereunder. If such rentals received from such reletting during any month
shall be less than that to be paid during that month by Tenant hereunder, Tenant
shall pay any such deficiency to Landlord. Such deficiency shall be calculated
and paid montWy. No such reentry or taking possession of the Demised Premises
or the making of alterations and/or improvements thereto or the reletting thereof
shall be construed as an election on the part of Landlord to terminate this Lease
unless written notice of such intention be given to Tenant. Landlord shall in no
event be liable in any way whatsoever for failure to relet the Demised Premises or,
in the event that the Demised Premises or any part or parts thereof are relet, for
failure to collect the rent thereof under such reletting. Tenant, for Tenant and
Tenant's successors and assigns, hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints
Landlord as its agent to collect the rents due and to become due under all
subleases of the Demised Premises or any parts thereof without in anyway
affecting Tenant's obligation to pay any unpaid balance of rent due or to become
due hereunder. Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, Landlord
may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for such previous breach.
(4) To cure any default by Tenant at Tenant's cost. If Landlord at any
time, by reason of Tenant's default, pays any sum or does any act that requires the
payment of any sum, the sum paid by Landlord shall be due immediately from
Tenant to Landlord at the time the sum is paid shall be additional rent.
(5) To terminate this Lease and the term hereby created without any right
on the part of Tenant to waive the forfeiture by payment of any sum due or by
other performance of any condition, term or covenant broken, whereupon
Landlord shall be entitled to recover, in addition to any and all sums and damages
for violation of Ten ant's obligations hereunder in existence at the time of such
termination, damages for Tenant's default in an amount equal to the amount of the
rent reserved for the balance of the term of this Lease, as well as all other charges,
payments, costs and expenses herein agreed to be paid by Tenant, all and expenses
herein agreed to be paid by Tenant, all discounted at the rate of nine percent (9%)
per annum to their then present worth, less the fair rental value of the Demised
Premises for the remainder of said term, also discounted at the rate of nine percent
(9%) per annum to its then present worth, all of which amount shall be
immediately due and payable from Tenant to Landlord.
(6) If Tenant shall default in the payment of the rent herein reserved or in
- 19 -
the payment of any other sums due hereunder by Tenant, Tenant hereby authorizes
and empowers any Prothonotary or attorney of any court of record to appear for
Tenant in any and all actions which may be brought for said rent and/or said other
sums and/or to sign for Tenant an agreement for entering in any competent court
an amicable action or actions for the recovery of said rental and/or other sums;
and, in said suits or in said amicable action or actions, to confess judgment against
Tenant for all or any part of said rental and/or said rental and/or said other sums,
including, but not limited to the amounts due from Tenant to Landlord under
Article 30(b)(l), (2), (3), (4) and/or (5), and for interest and costs, together with
any attorney's commission for collection of ten percent (10%). Such authority
shall not be exhausted by one exercise thereof, but judgment may be confessed as
aforesaid from time to time as often as any of said rental and/or other sums shall
fall due or be in arrears, and such powers may be exercised as well after the ex-
piration ofthe initial term of this Lease and/or during any extended or renewal
term of this Lease and/or after the expiration of any extended or renewal term of
this LeaSe.
(7) When this Lease and the term or any extension or renewal thereof
shall have been terminated on account of any default by Tenant hereunder, and
also when the term hereby created or any extension or renewal thereof shall have
expired, it shall be lawful for any attorney of any court of record to appear as
attorney for Tenant, as well as for all persons claiming by, through or under
Tenant, and to sign an agreement for entering in any competent court an amicable
action in ejectment against Tenant and all persons claiming by, through or under
T errant and therein confess judgment for recovery by Landlord of possession of
the Demised Premises, for which this Lease shall be its sufficient warrant;
thereupon, if Landlord so desires, an appropriate writ of possession may issue
forthwith without any prior writ or proceeding whatsoever, and provided that, if
for any reason after such action shall ~ave been commenced, it shall be deter-
mined that possession of the Demised Premises remain in or be restored to
Tenant, Landlord shall have the right for the same default and upon any
subsequent default or defaults, or upon the termination of this Lease or Tenant's
right of possession as hereinbefore set forth, to bring one or more further amicable
action or actions as hereinbefore set forth to recover possession of the Demised
Premises as hereinbefore provided.
(8) In any amicable action of ejectment and/or for rent and/or other sums
brought hereon, Landlord shall first cause to be filed in such action an affidavit
made by Landlord or someone acting for Landlord, setting forth the facts
necessary to authorize the entry of judgment, of which facts such affidavit shall be
prima facie evidence, and, if a true copy of this Lease (and of the truth of the copy
such affidavit shall be sufficient evidence) shall be filed in such suit, action or
actions, it shall not be necessary to file the original as a warrant of attorney, any
rule of court, custom or practice to the contrary notwithstanding.
(9) No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Landlord is
- 20 -

(
intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy herein or by law provided,
but each shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right or remedy given
herein or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.
(10) Tenant hereby waives and releases all errors and defects which may.
intervene in the Landlord's exercise of any of its remedies hereunder, including
the summary remedies. Tenant further waives the right of inquisition on any real
estate levied on, and Tenant voluntarily condemns the same and consents to an
immediate execution upon any judgment obtained by Landlord. Tenant also
waives and releases all relief from any and all appraisement, stay or exemption
law of any state now in force or hereafter enacted. Tenant waives any notice to
quit required by any law now in force or hereafter enacted.
(11) In case suit shall be brought for recovery of possession of the
Demised Premises, for the recovery of rent or any other amount due under the
provisions of this Lease; or because of the breach of any other covenant contained
herein on the part of Tenant to be kept or performed, and a breach shall be
