Plaintiffs' Complaint is devoid of any allegations of IIfCJienter" on behalf of New Market Associates with respect to the purported statements made by Clement Leo to Plaintiffs. 5. Plaintiffs' Complaint fails to all~ge that Defendant New Market Associates participated in, authorized, or knowingly permitted the statements which were allegedly made by clement Leo as set forth in Count I of Plaintiffs' Complaint. 6. In Pennsylvania, in order for a principal to be liable for an agent's fraudulent statements, a plaintiff must prove scienter. 7. Accordingly, Count I of Plaintiffs' Complaint fails to state a cause of action against New Market Associates upon which relief can be granted. WHEREFORE, Defendant New Market Associates requests that Count I of Plaintiffs' Complaint be dismissed. MOTION TO STRIKE COUNT I a. Rule 1019(b) of the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure states that averments of fraud must be pleaded with particularity, 9. Count I of Plaintiffs' Complaint purports to state a cause of action for fraudulent misrepresentation against all Defendants. 10. Count I is completely devoid of any averments of fraudulent conduct or statements on the part of Pefendant New Market Associates. - 2 - 11. Tho only averments of purported fraud on the fsce of the complaint which are directed to Defendant New Market Associates are Paragraphs 31 and 32, which contain only vague averments of purported fraudulent conduct on b~half of Defendant New Market Associates. 12. Count I of Plaintiffs' Complaint fails to conform to the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure I as it fails to aver fraud with particularity as to Defendant New Market Associates. 13. Count I of Plaintiffs' Complaint should be stricken for failure to conform to Rule 1019(b) of the Penn~ylvania Rules of Civil Procedure. WHEREFORE, Defendant New Market Associates requests that Count I of Plaintiffs' Complaint be stricken. QlMYRRER TO COUNT II 14. Count II of Plaintiffs' Complaint is headed "Negligence. " 15. Count II of Plaintiffs' Complaint alleges that Defendant New Market Associates had certain duties to Plaintiffs, including a fiduciary duty to provide accurate information to Plaintiffs (Paragraph 48 t)f Plaintiffs' Complaint). 16. Under Pennsylvania law, no such "fiduciary" duty exists, 17. Plaintiffs have therefore failed to plead any legal duty owed by Defendant New Market Associates to Plaintiffs. - 3 - 18. Count II does not allege the required elements to prevail on a olaim of "negligence." 19. Accordingly, Count II should be dismissed against New Market Associates for failure to state a claim upon which relief oan be granted. WHEREFORE, Defendant New Market Associates requests that Count II of Plaintiffs' Complaint be dismissed. DEMURRBR TO COUNT III 20. Count III of Plaintiffs' Complaint purports to raise claims against all Defendants under the Unfair Trade Practices Act. 21. Count III of Plaintiffs' Complaint cites no specific portion of Unfair Trade Practices Act which allegedly is applicable, but Count III generally alleges fraudulent conduct on the part of all Defendants. 22. Count III of Plaintiffs' Complaint fails to allege any specific misrepresentations made by Defendant New Market Associates. Further, Plaintiffs' Complaint fails to aver that Defendant New Market Associates had scienter with respect to the comments purportedly made by Clement Leo of RSR. 23. Accordingly, Plaintiffs have failed to state a cause of action against Defendant New Market Associates with respect to Count III of its claim. WHEREFORE, Defendant New Market Associates requests that Count III of Plaintiffs' Complaint be dismissed. - 4 - NOTION TO STRIK. COUNT III 24. Count III of Plaintiffs' Complaint purports to allege fraudulent conduct by all Defendants. 25, Count I II of Plaint if f s' complaint contains no speoifio averments of fraudulent conduct on bohalf of Defendant New Market Associates, and no such averments exist anywhere on the face of the Complaint. 26. Rule 1019(bl of the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure requires a plaintiff to allege averments of fraud with part icularity. 27. Since Plaintiffs' Complaint fails to aver fraud with respect to Defendant New Market Associates with particularity, Plaintiffs' Complaint violates Rule 1019(b) of the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure, and should be stricken for lack of conformity to rule of court. WHEREFORE, Defendant New Market Associates requests that Count III of Plaintiffs' Complaint be stricken. DBMURRBR TO COUNT...1Y 28. Count IVof Plaintiffs' Complaint is headed "Vicarious Liability. " 29. Vicarious liability is not a cause of action in itself, and therefore is improperly headed as a separate count. 30. Moreover, Paragraph 61 of Plaintiffs' Complaint alleges that Defendant New Market Associates is VicariouSly liable for ~ actions or omissions of Leo with respect to the real estate - 5 - in ~uestion, However, since there are no allegations of soienter in Plaintiffs' Complaint, Plaintiffs' claim fails to state a cause of action for relief can be granted, WHEREFORE, Defendant New Market Associates requests that Count IV of Plaintiffs' Complaint be dismissed. MOTION TO S!l'RIKE !iQ.YJIT-IY 31, Rule 1019(a) of the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure requires that a plaintiff's complaint be set forth in concise and summary form. 32. Count IV of Plaintiffs' Complaint is duplicative, unnecessary, and should be strlcken. 33. Moreover, Count IV of Plaintiffs' Complaint contains impertinent matter, and thus should be stricken. WHEREFORE, Defendant New Market Associates requests that Count IV of Plaintiffs' Complaint be stricken. MOTION TO STRIKE PARAGRAPH 28 34. Paragraph 28 of Plaintiffs' Complaint contains averments regarding how the property in question was constructed or engineered. 35. Whether the property was or was not properly constructed and/or engineered is of no relevance whatsoever to Plaintiffs' claims in the present lawsuit. - 6 - 36, Aooordingly, Paragraph 28 constitutes impertinent matter, and should be stricken.' WHEREFORE, Defendant New Market Associates requests th~t Paragraph 28 of Plaintiffs' Complaint be stricken. MOTION FOR A MORIL~PBCIFIC PLBADING 37, As set forth above, Plaintiffs purport to bring a fraud olaim against Defendant New Market Associates, but nowhere in Plaintiffs' Complaint are there specific averments of any fraudulent conduct by Defendant New Market Associates. 38. To the extent that Defendallt' s other preliminary objections might be dismissed, Plaintiffs should be required to file a more specific pleading which specifically identifies any and all alleged fraudulent conduct on behalf of Defendant New Market Associates so that Defendant may properly respond to Plaintiffs' Complaint. 39. Moreover, Counts III and IV of Plaintiffs' Complaint identify the specific Defendants against whom each count is brought, while Counts I and II of Plaintiffs' Complaint do not, I Note, in addition to Paragraph 28, other portions of Plaintiffs' Complaint are confusing and should be stricken as well. Specifically, the reference to "debtors" in Paragraphs 35, 51 and 58 are confusing in that Plaintiffs are not bringing a bankruptcy action, and their reference to the term "debtors" is confusing and misleading. Accordingly, the references to "debtors" throughout the Complalnt should be stricken as well. - 7 - 40. Acoordingly, Plaintiffs should be directed to file a more speoifio complaint to identify which callses of action are being brought against which s~ecific defendants, WHEREFORE, Defendant New Market Associates requests that Plaintiffs be directed to file a more specific Complaint. MOTION TO STRIKB REFERBNCES TO NICHAIL-BYRNBS AS PART OF NEW MAR~BT ASSOCIATES 41. The caption of Plaintiffs' Complaint, as well as the body of the Complaint, ldentify three individuals who were allegedly doing business under the name New Market Associates, the entity which sold the property in question to Plaintiffs in this matter. 42. Exhibit "A" to Plaintiffs' Complaint is the first page of the agreement of sale for the property. The entire agreement (2 pages), and the settlement sheet for the sale are attached hereto as Exhibits "A" and "B", respectively. These documents reflect that, at the time of the transaction in question, Michael Byrnes was no longer a member of New Market Associates. Therefore, Michael Byrnes is improperly included in the caption of Plaintiffs' Complaint. 43. Accordingly, the references to Michael Byrnes in the Complaint constitute impertinent matter, and should be stricken. WHEREFORE, Defendant New Market Associates requests that references to Michael Byrnes in Plaintiffs' Complaint be stricken. - 8 - ',,", ';'-'~'. '.'

Mr. Crlburl wus dlscourlIlled by l.eo from crawlinll Inlo the crawl space to 2 . In~pectthe ~all1e, on the premise that he might put hole~ In a vapor barrier recently Installed by the ownen, 13. In ltddltion, Leo rcassured Mr, Cribari that there were "no problems down there", (under the llrstlloor), 14. Plaintiff lhcn asked whether there were IIny problem~ with the entire property thllt he should be aware of, tilr example, electrical, plumbing, structural or anything else. 15, Cribari was then inliJrmed by Leo that there had been a prior wllter problem, but "it wa~ I1xed". 16. After being pressed, Leo volunteered thllt II pipe had burst, but it had been l1xed, all of the water had soaked Into the ground, and there was presently no problem with water in the building whalsoever. 17. Plllintifrs found out later that, In August of 1992, the owner~ of the property had the vapor barrier Installed under either most or all of the units because of water collecting under each of the units, 18, At the January 13th inspection, Mr. Cribari asked Leo about possible drainage problems around the exterior of the premises, and was informed that there had been drninage pipes Installed underground to assist in drainage of land surrounding the units. which pipes drnined to the street (Ross Avenue), 19. Upon requesting a map to determine the location of these drainage pipes, Mr. Cribari was informed that no such map existed, 20. Cribari asked for further c1arilication of the location of drainage pipe, and was informed by Leo that there were pipes installed both around the building and under the building to 3 . help with willer drnhulllu, 21, I.ell fllrlher e~llllllnelllhlll Ihu Iypu of pipes used were lhose with holes in the side thBt Bllowud willer 10 I1ltur Ihrulll!h Ihu Ilrllullllllnlllnlolh\! pipes, 22, It Is helleve" IIn" Iherclilre II\!CHed lhlll nu such drnlnllge pipes exist. 23.

II is believed and therefore avelTed that Leo had authoril)' 10 speak for, and acl on behalf of, New Market Associlltes lit all times relevant to the evenls which give rise to this Complaint. 7, On October 28, 1992, the PlalntllTs and Defendant New MlIlket Associates entered into an Agreement to purchase certain real e5tBte consisllng of an 8-wut multi-family dwelHng lor.ated at 303-305 Ross Avenue, New Cumberland, York Counl)', Pennsylvanll.

On JanWll)' 15, 1993, Cribari scnled on the purchase of the property from New MlI'ket Associates, by paying the sum of $328,000.00 and accepting tender of the deed to the property . 9. Tbe real estate agent representing New Market Associates In this transaction was Leo, and the Real Estate agency was RSR. 10. Prior 10 the senlement, on January 13, 1993, Leo, and Mr. Cribari Inspected the property in question along with William Twigg, the PlaintilTs' real estate agent. II. During this visit, Mr. Cribari expressed a desire to Inspect the crawl space under Unit C, 2 12. Mr, Cribari wu dillCourlied by Leo from crlwllnllnlo the crawl space \0 inapect the lIIJIe, on the premllC thlt he millht put holes in I vlpor barrier recently installed by the owners. 13, In addition, Leo reBSsured Mr. Cribari that there were "no problems down there". (under the first floor), 14. Plaintiff then asked whether there were any problema with the entire property thlt he should be aware of, for example, electrical, plumbinS, structural or any thins ellC, I s. Cribari was then infonned by Leo that there had been I prior water problem. but "It was fixed". 16, After belns pressed, Leo volunteered that 0 pipe hod burst, but it had been fixed, all of the water had soaked Into the ground, and there WBS presently no problem with water UI the buildlns whatsoever, 17. Plaintiffs found outlaler that, in Ausust of 1992, the owners of the property hid the vapor barrier installed under either most or all of the units because of water collectlns under each of the units. 18, At the January 13th inspection, Mr. Cribari asked Leo about possible dralnalle problems around the exterior of the premises, and was infonned that there had been dralnase pipes installed underground to assist UI dralnase of land sl>lToundins the units, which pipes drained to the street (Ross A venue). 19.

New Market owned the property at 303-305 Ross Avenue from the time it had the building constructed by a contractor in 1988 through the time it sold the property to Plaintiffs. From January of 1991 to the present, the partners in New Market Associates have been Ralph R. Byrnes and J. Paul McMillen. 64. At no time during NeW Market's ownership of the property was it aware of any significant problems or defects with the subject property, 65. During the period of time the property was owned by New Market, New Market had certain minor work performed in the crawl spaces beneath the apartment units in the subject property, which consisted primarily of the placement of a plastic vapor barrier within each crawl space. 66. New Market had the work in the crawl spaces performed at the suggestion of one of the tenants (who had some experience in the construction industry) in order to cure a minor existing dampness problem, and to prevent future dampness problems. - 20 - 67. To the best of New Ma/:ket's knowledge, at no time during the course of its ownership of the property did wate/: ever collect in the crawl space a , 68, To the best of New Market's knowledge, at no time did pipes ever burst on the property. 69, To the best of New Market's knowledge, at no time were there any significant problems with drainage on the property. 70, In late Octobor or early November of 1992, Now Market entered into an agreement with Plaintiffs to sell the subject property for an agreed to sum of $328,000, subject to the conditions set forth in tho agreement, 71. A special clause was inserted into the agreement which statedl "This offer is contingent upon Buyer inspecting all units within 10 days of thia agreement and property meeting with the Buyer's approval" .." 72, Upon information and belief, sometime in early November, 1992, an inspection of the subject property was made by Plaintiffs, during which Plaintiffa observed several "problems" which they asked to have corrected before settlement. 73. While New Market was not present during the inspection referenced in the preceding paragraph, upon information and belief, the inspection was performed by Plaintiff Sal Cribari, and was a fairly thorough inspection, 74. The inspect:ion apparently performed by Mr. Cribari should have alerted Plaintiffs to all existing property - 21 - conditiona, including the exact condition of the crawl space at the time of inspection, as well as the exact drainage conditiona on the subject property. 75. The sales agreement between the parties specifically provides, at ~aragraph 16, as followsf Representations f It i/.l understood that Buyer has inspected the property, or hereby waives the riyht to do so and he/she has agreed to purchase it as a result of such inapection and not because of or in reliance upon any representation made by the seiler or any other officer, partnel' 01: emplc'yee of Seller, or by the agent of Seller or any of the latter's sales persons and employees, or by a cooperating broker, if any, or any of his/her salespersons and employees and that he/she has agreed to purchase it in its present condition unless otherwise specified herein and further acknowledgeB that the aforementioned parties are not qualified to render an opinion on conBtruction, engineering, or environmental matters and that the Buyer has been advised th~t he/she may require or wish to seek the assistance of experts in those fields. It is further underBtood that this agreement contains the whole agreement between the Seller and the Buyer and that there no other termB, obligationB, covenants, representations, statement3 or conditions, oral or otherwise of any kind whatsoever concerning this sale, Further, this agreement shall not be al tered, amended, changed or modified except in writing executed by the parties hereto. 76. Said agreement further provides that the agreement itself constitutes the whole agreement between the seller and the buyer, and that no other terms, obligations, covenants, representations, statements and/or conditions, oral or otherwise of any kind whatsoever, were part of this sale. 77. Plaintiffs' claims are therefore barred by the express terms of the sales agreement. - 22 - 78. Plaintiffs' claims ~re barr~d because through their inspection, plaintiffe knew or should have known the exact condition of the Ross Avenue property. 79, All of the items referred to in Paragraph 72 above were repaired by New Marj((!t prior to settlement. 80. The property at issue in the subject lawsuit was originally listed for sale at a price which was higher than the ultimate purchaae price of $328,000.00, 81. In negotiating to buy the subject property, Mr, Cribari stated that he was going to inspect the property, and would make a "take it or leave it" offer. 82, During these negotiations, Mr. Cribari stated that, as he is in the business of buying such properties, he knows exactly what the properties are worth to him, and would base his offer accordingly. 83. To the extent that any alleged defects existed in the property, which is denied, Plaintiffs were well aware of the exact condition of the property at the time they purchased it, 84. At no time during negotiations for the sale of the property did New Market make any representations whatsoever regarding the condition of the property. 85, At no time during negotiations for the sale of the property did Mr. Cribari make any inquiries directly to New Market Associates with respect to the condition of the property. - 23 - 86, At no time during negotiations for the sale of the property did NeW Market attempt to hide or otherwise conceal any facts which would L~ material to the transaction for the aale of the property. 97, New Market entered into an agreemen~ with RSR which called for RSR to act as New Market's agent in selling the subject property. 88, The agreement between RSR and New Market permitted RSR to take only those actions or make statements which were duly authorized by New Market. 89, To the extent that the statements referred to in Plaintiffs' Amended Complaint were allegedly made by Clem Leo of RSR, such statements would have been beyond the scope of the agency relationship between RSR and New Market. 90. Settlement on the sale of the property at issue in this lawsuit occurred on or about January 15, 1993, 91. The first time New Market was notified of any dissatisfaction on the part of Plaintiffs was in May of 1993, when New Market received a letter from Plaintiffs' counsel. 92, During late Winter and Spring of 1992, the Central Pennsylvania area experienced heavy rains and flooding conditions. Indeed, the Yellow Breeches Creek, which is located a short distance from'the subject property, overflowed its banks. 93. New Market believes, and therefore avers, that to the extent any water problems of any sort exist or ever occurred on - 24 . the subj ect property, that said water problems were as a result of the heavy rain and flooding conditions which occurred in the Winter and Spring of 1992, as no such problems existed during the tim~ in which New Market owned the property, 94. Upon infol'mation and bellet, aignif icant portions of the work outlined by Plaintiffs in their Amended Complaint are unnecessary. 95, Plaintiffs have fdiled to properly mitigate their damages, NEW M1\1':rJR ADDRESSED TO RM 96, Paragraphs 1-95 above are hereby incorporated by reference. 97, Plaintiffs allege in their Amended Complaint that they have suffered damages as a result of certain representations or actions made by Clement Leo and/or RSR, with regard to the Bale of the property in question from New Market to Plaintiffs. 98, Plaintiff.s also allege in their Amended Complaint that they have suffered certain damages as a result of alleged concealment by either Defendants RSR or New Market Associates with regard to the sale of the property in question from New Market to Piaintiffs. 99. RSR was engaged as a real estate agent for New Market with respect to the subject property, and received a commission once settlement was made on the property. - 25 - ~ . .. " R: '" if.
