HUSBAND shall be responsible for preparing the documents necessary for the transfer of the
sum of TWENTY-FOUR THOUSAND NINE HUNDRED EIGHT and 76/100 DOLLARS
($24,908.76) from the Wellness Resource Center 401(K) Plan. After this transfer, all monies in
the Pinnacle Plan as well as all remaining monies in the Wellness Center Resource Plan accounts
shall be the sole and separate property of WIFE.
HUSBAND warrants that he has earned no retirement or other deferred employment
benefits during the marriage.
F. INSURANCE
Each parry shall retain ownership of any life insurance policy in his or her name.
However, each party further agrees to name each child as beneficiary of a life insurance with a
minimum benefit value of FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ($50,000.00) per child. Each policy
shall be carried at the sole cost of the owner and shall remain in full force and effect by each
parent until the child reaches the age of twenty-one (21) years, at which time this obligation for
that child shall terminate. It is agreed that while the child is less than twenty-one (21) years of
3/2/2007 12
age, the other parry shall be named as trustee for the benefits of the child up to designated
minimum sum of FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ($50,000.00) so that said parent can utilize
this sum for the support and needs of the children upon the death of the other parent.
2. DEBTS
Each parry represents that they have not contracted any debt or liability for the other for
which the estate of the other party may be responsible or liable except as otherwise provided
herein, and that except only for the rights arising out of this Agreement, neither party will
hereafter incur any liability whatsoever for which the other party or the estate of the other party
will be liable. Each party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless from and against all future
obligations of every kind incurred by them, including those for necessities.
The parties confirm that no joint credit cards or obligation exist. Each parry shall
hereafter be responsible for any credit cards or loans titled in his or her individual name. WIFE
shall be liable and responsible for all debt included on her individually titled Bank of America.
Credit Card and HUSBAND shall be responsible for all debt included on his individually titled

debt. The parties acknowledge that they have divided the total marital debt due at the time of
separation equally between them and that the adjustment to compensate WIFE for the additional
debt due and owing on her credit card is reflected in the reduction of the retirement rollover to
HUSBAND pursuant to Section (11)(1)(E.) above.

joint credit cards are terminated.
