A Separated Report has been requested which is defined as Section 1/Section 2 conditions evident on the date of inspection. Section 1 contains items where there is evidence of active infestation, infection or conditions that have resulted in or from infestation or infection. Section 2 items are conditions deemed likely to lead to infestation or infection, but where no visible evidence of such was found. Further Inspection items are defined as recommendations to inspect area(s) which during the original inspection did not allow the inspector access to complete his inspection and cannot be defined as Section 1 or Section 2. (1) Substructure Area 1A. There is evidence of drywood termites noted in the subarea, interior and exterior as indicated on the diagram. RECOMMENDATION: Due to the nature of these infestations, it will be necessary to seal the entire structure and fumigate it with Vikane (Sulfuryl Fluoride) gas, with tear gas (Chloropicrin) as a warning agent. The entire structure must be vacant for this process. We will use all due caution in our operation, however, we assume no liability for any damage to the roof coverings, solar panels, TV antennas or plantings adjacent to the structure. The occupants must sign the Occupants Fumigation Notice and comply with all of the instructions. NOTE: Instruction for preparation work will be forthcoming from the sub-contract fumigation company and must be complied with in order for fumigation to commence. Section 1 1B. Drywood termite pellets were found in the area(s) indicated on the diagram. RECOMMENDATION: Remove and/or cover the accessible drywood termite pellets. It is possible for old pellets to sift down and to become visible in previously infested areas due to normal movement and vibration of a structure. Our bid is for removing and/or covering the pellets on a one-time basis. Section 1

Areas Not Inspected: This report is limited to those portions of the diagrammed structure that were open and visible. We did not inspect any concealed areas to which there is no access without moving appliances, furniture, storage, floor coverings, insulation, cabinets, finished materials, etc. We did not water test and do not certify against leakage, any appliances, plumbing over finished ceilings, roof coverings or decks. We make no guarantee against infestation, infection, leakage, or any adverse conditions which may exist in such areas or which may develop or become evident in any areas after this date. If information about the areas not inspected is desired, we recommend further inspection be performed after they are rendered accessible by the owner. Guarantee: Fumigations performed by J&T Termite are guaranteed for three (3) years. Wood repairs and ceramic tile replacement performed by J&T Termite is guaranteed for one (1) year from the date of completion. The guarantee for localized chemical treatment is limited to the area(s) treated for one (1) year, except secondary substandard measurements which are not guaranteed. Vinyl floor covering, plumbing repairs, glass work, grouting, caulking or any measures for control of moisture completed by J&T Termite are guaranteed for ninety (90) days. Reinspection: This Company will re-inspect repairs done by others within 4 months of the original inspection. A charge, if any, can be no greater than the original inspection fee for each reinspection. The re-inspection must be done within ten (10) working days of request. The re-inspection is a visual inspection and if inspection of concealed areas is desired, inspection of work in progress will be necessary. Any guarantees must be received from persons or companies performing the repairs. Wood-destroying Organisms: This inspection is to disclose actual infestations, infections and conditions that are conducive to infestation or infection. This is not a general pest inspection (ants, spiders, cockroaches, fleas, rodents, etc.), but concerns only wood destroying pests and organisms and conditions conducive to such. Competitive Business Practices: The Structural Pest Control board encourages competitive business practices among registered companies. Reports on this structure prepared by various registered companies should list the same findings (i.e. termite infestations, termite damage, fungus damage, etc.). However, recommendations to correct these findings may vary from company to company. Therefore, you have a right to seek a second opinion from another company. Structural and Roof Inspection: This is not a structural inspection. If information concerning electrical, heating, foundation and any other conditions beyond the scope of a Wood Destroying Organisms inspection is desired, the appropriate inspecting firm should be consulted. The exterior surface of the roof was not inspected. If you want the water tightness of the roof determined you should contact a roofing contractor who is licensed by the contractor’s state license board. Plumbing: This firm inspects and reports only visible plumbing leaks on the day of the inspection. This firm does not guarantee against hidden or future leaks. The owner should contact a plumber for further information regarding plumbing. Mold: This property was not inspected for the presence or absence of health-related molds or fungi. By California Law, we are not qualified, authorized nor licensed to inspect for health-related molds. If you desire information about the presence or absence of health-related molds, contact the California Department of Health Related Services. Asbestos: No representation is made regarding the presence or absence of asbestos, a material commonly used in structures prior to 1983. If interested parties desire information concerning asbestos, a proper contractor should be consulted. Mill Patterns: It may not be possible to match the existing mill patterns and materials used in the original construction. We will replace damaged wood members with materials which resemble, as closely as possible, the existing wood members with standard grade materials currently in stock and available.

NOTICE: The charge for service that this company subcontracts to another person or entity may include the company’s charges for arranging and administering such services that are in addition to the direct costs associated with paying the subcontractor. You may accept J&T Termite’s bid or you may contract directly with another registered company licensed to perform the work. If you choose to contract with another company, J&T Termite will not be responsible for any act or omission in the performance of work that you directly contract with another to perform. J&T Termite subcontracts to Cost Less Fumigation, 844 Earle Avenue, San Jose 95126 (408) 918-9100, and for repairs, Manuel Toledo, General Contractor, 1209 Sagemill Court, San Jose 95121 (408) 691-3800. Lead-based paint: When applicable repairs by this company in residences built prior to 1978 may disturb materials containing lead-based paint and may release debris or dust contaminating lead. Lead is a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For further information, contact your health care provider or an industrial hygienist. A licensed pest control inspector is not an expert in lead, lead-based paint, or exposure to lead. This report is not intended to identify the presence or absence of lead or lead-based paint in the building inspected. Whether lead-based paint is present can be determined only by a certified lead inspector. For a list of certified lead inspectors, call the California Dept. of Health Services' Lead-Related Construction Information Line at (800) 597-5323. Exterior: Where applicable the structure was inspected from the ground level only. Portions of the structure that extend more than 12 feet from the ground level were visually inspected only. Visual inspection above 12 feet is limited by height. Accuracy above this point cannot be guaranteed. Wood members showing visible signs of infestation or infection were pick-tested to determine the nature and extent of the finding. The inspector did not get up on the roof to inspect wood members accessible from the roof. Certification: Certification applies to visible and accessible areas of the structure observed at the time of original inspection. This certification does not constitute a guarantee that parties in interest will not inherit hidden infestations, infections and adverse conditions. J&T Termite assumes no liability for such hidden conditions. If a problem is discovered that was not disclosed during our inspection, do not disturb the area. Contact our office immediately to inspect the problem area and allow proper determination. Limitations: Inspection of fences, screeds and detached structures is not included in this report unless otherwise stated. In any slab floor areas or areas where siding extends below the exterior grade level, it is possible for termite infestations and damage to be present but not evident at the time of inspection. Our inspection of any insulated attic spaces, where applicable, is limited to viewing the area from the access hatch. If interested parties provide catwalks for sure footing and request further inspection, we will return to make a closer inspection of any attic space at an additional charge. State Law requires that you be given the following information: CAUTION-PESTICIDES ARE TOXIC CHEMICALS. Structural Pest Control Operators are licensed and regulated by the Structural Pest Control Board, and apply pesticides which are registered and approved for use by the California Department of Pesticide Regulation and the United States Environmental Protection Agency. Registration is granted when the State finds that based on existing scientific evidence there are no appreciable risks if proper use conditions are followed or that the risks are outweighed by the benefits. The degree of risk depends upon the degree of exposure, so exposure should be minimized. If within 24 hours following an application you experience symptoms similar to common seasonal illness, comparable to the flu, or after fumigation with sulfuryl fluoride, anyone entering the structure experiences symptoms of dizziness, nausea, reduced awareness, slowed movement, garbled speech or difficulty breathing, abdominal pain or any other symptoms of overexposure, contact J&T Termite (408) 826-7573, your physician, and/or your Poison Control Center. For the Poison Control Center, contact the following: (1-800-222-1222). The warning agent chloropicrin can cause symptoms of tearing, respiratory distress and vomiting. Entry into the space during fumigation can be fatal. For further information, contact any of the following: J&T Termite (408) 826-7573; for Health Questions: The County Health Department (408) 885-4214; for Application Information: The County Agricultural Commissioner (408) 918-4600 and for Regulatory Information-the Structural Pest Control Board (800) 737-8188 located at 2005 Evergreen Street, Suite 1500, Sacramento, CA 95815-3831.

Areas Not Inspected: This report is limited to those portions of the diagrammed structure that were open and visible. We did not inspect any concealed areas to which there is no access without moving appliances, furniture, storage, floor coverings, insulation, cabinets, finished materials, etc. We did not water test and do not certify against leakage, any appliances, plumbing over finished ceilings, roof coverings or decks. We make no guarantee against infestation, infection, leakage, or any adverse conditions which may exist in such areas or which may develop or become evident in any areas after this date. If information about the areas not inspected is desired, we recommend further inspection be performed after they are rendered accessible by the owner. Guarantee: Fumigations performed by J&T Termite are guaranteed for three (3) years. Wood repairs and ceramic tile replacement performed by J&T Termite is guaranteed for one (1) year from the date of completion. The guarantee for localized chemical treatment is limited to the area(s) treated for one (1) year, except secondary substandard measurements which are not guaranteed. Vinyl floor covering, plumbing repairs, glass work, grouting, caulking or any measures for control of moisture completed by J&T Termite are guaranteed for ninety (90) days. Reinspection: This Company will re-inspect repairs done by others within 4 months of the original inspection. A charge, if any, can be no greater than the original inspection fee for each reinspection. The re-inspection must be done within ten (10) working days of request. The re-inspection is a visual inspection and if inspection of concealed areas is desired, inspection of work in progress will be necessary. Any guarantees must be received from persons or companies performing the repairs. Wood-destroying Organisms: This inspection is to disclose actual infestations, infections and conditions that are conducive to infestation or infection. This is not a general pest inspection (ants, spiders, cockroaches, fleas, rodents, etc.), but concerns only wood destroying pests and organisms and conditions conducive to such. Competitive Business Practices: The Structural Pest Control board encourages competitive business practices among registered companies. Reports on this structure prepared by various registered companies should list the same findings (i.e. termite infestations, termite damage, fungus damage, etc.). However, recommendations to correct these findings may vary from company to company. Therefore, you have a right to seek a second opinion from another company. Structural and Roof Inspection: This is not a structural inspection. If information concerning electrical, heating, foundation and any other conditions beyond the scope of a Wood Destroying Organisms inspection is desired, the appropriate inspecting firm should be consulted. The exterior surface of the roof was not inspected. If you want the water tightness of the roof determined you should contact a roofing contractor who is licensed by the contractor’s state license board. Plumbing: This firm inspects and reports only visible plumbing leaks on the day of the inspection. This firm does not guarantee against hidden or future leaks. The owner should contact a plumber for further information regarding plumbing. Mold: This property was not inspected for the presence or absence of health-related molds or fungi. By California Law, we are not qualified, authorized nor licensed to inspect for health-related molds. If you desire information about the presence or absence of health-related molds, contact the California Department of Health Related Services. Asbestos: No representation is made regarding the presence or absence of asbestos, a material commonly used in structures prior to 1983. If interested parties desire information concerning asbestos, a proper contractor should be consulted. Mill Patterns: It may not be possible to match the existing mill patterns and materials used in the original construction. We will replace damaged wood members with materials which resemble, as closely as possible, the existing wood members with standard grade materials currently in stock and available.

NOTICE: The charge for service that this company subcontracts to another person or entity may include the company’s charges for arranging and administering such services that are in addition to the direct costs associated with paying the subcontractor. You may accept J&T Termite’s bid or you may contract directly with another registered company licensed to perform the work. If you choose to contract with another company, J&T Termite will not be responsible for any act or omission in the performance of work that you directly contract with another to perform. J&T Termite subcontracts to Cost Less Fumigation, 844 Earle Avenue, San Jose 95126 (408) 918-9100, and for repairs, Manuel Toledo, General Contractor, 1209 Sagemill Court, San Jose 95121 (408) 691-3800. Lead-based paint: When applicable repairs by this company in residences built prior to 1978 may disturb materials containing lead-based paint and may release debris or dust contaminating lead. Lead is a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For further information, contact your health care provider or an industrial hygienist. A licensed pest control inspector is not an expert in lead, lead-based paint, or exposure to lead. This report is not intended to identify the presence or absence of lead or lead-based paint in the building inspected. Whether lead-based paint is present can be determined only by a certified lead inspector. For a list of certified lead inspectors, call the California Dept. of Health Services' Lead-Related Construction Information Line at (800) 597-5323. Exterior: Where applicable the structure was inspected from the ground level only. Portions of the structure that extend more than 12 feet from the ground level were visually inspected only. Visual inspection above 12 feet is limited by height. Accuracy above this point cannot be guaranteed. Wood members showing visible signs of infestation or infection were pick-tested to determine the nature and extent of the finding. The inspector did not get up on the roof to inspect wood members accessible from the roof. Certification: Certification applies to visible and accessible areas of the structure observed at the time of original inspection. This certification does not constitute a guarantee that parties in interest will not inherit hidden infestations, infections and adverse conditions. J&T Termite assumes no liability for such hidden conditions. If a problem is discovered that was not disclosed during our inspection, do not disturb the area. Contact our office immediately to inspect the problem area and allow proper determination. Limitations: Inspection of fences, screeds and detached structures is not included in this report unless otherwise stated. In any slab floor areas or areas where siding extends below the exterior grade level, it is possible for termite infestations and damage to be present but not evident at the time of inspection. Our inspection of any insulated attic spaces, where applicable, is limited to viewing the area from the access hatch. If interested parties provide catwalks for sure footing and request further inspection, we will return to make a closer inspection of any attic space at an additional charge. State Law requires that you be given the following information: CAUTION-PESTICIDES ARE TOXIC CHEMICALS. Structural Pest Control Operators are licensed and regulated by the Structural Pest Control Board, and apply pesticides which are registered and approved for use by the California Department of Pesticide Regulation and the United States Environmental Protection Agency. Registration is granted when the State finds that based on existing scientific evidence there are no appreciable risks if proper use conditions are followed or that the risks are outweighed by the benefits. The degree of risk depends upon the degree of exposure, so exposure should be minimized. If within 24 hours following an application you experience symptoms similar to common seasonal illness, comparable to the flu, or after fumigation with sulfuryl fluoride, anyone entering the structure experiences symptoms of dizziness, nausea, reduced awareness, slowed movement, garbled speech or difficulty breathing, abdominal pain or any other symptoms of overexposure, contact J&T Termite (408) 826-7573, your physician, and/or your Poison Control Center. For the Poison Control Center, contact the following: (1-800-222-1222). The warning agent chloropicrin can cause symptoms of tearing, respiratory distress and vomiting. Entry into the space during fumigation can be fatal. For further information, contact any of the following: J&T Termite (408) 826-7573; for Health Questions: The County Health Department (408) 885-4214; for Application Information: The County Agricultural Commissioner (408) 918-4600 and for Regulatory Information-the Structural Pest Control Board (800) 737-8188 located at 2005 Evergreen Street, Suite 1500, Sacramento, CA 95815-3831.
