If Customer wants Company to make any repairs, alterations or replacements as a result of the inspection services performed pursuant to this Agreement, such work and the additional compensation to Company must be specified in a separate written agreement between Company and Customer.

2. Any additional system equipment added to the Property after the date of this Agreement or not otherwise specified in Section II of this Agreement is not included in the inspection services to be provided pursuant to this Agreement.
