1: We will use our Operations Manual and the Home Reference Book of Home Inspection as the instructional

materials for these training programs. Training sessions and materials are in English. The management training of the Academy is presented by the Development Managers and the Marketing Department along with our other staff members. The technical training at the Academy is conducted by our Manager of Technical Training, Michael Hughes. Mr. Hughes was an AmeriSpec® franchisee from 1998 to 2000 and has been on our and our Immediate and Indirect Predecessors' technical training staff since January 2001.

• 2: You must complete the 40-hour Home Reference On-Line Study Course prior to attending the two-week Academy. We will monitor the on-line Home Reference Study Course to ensure completion prior to attending Academy class.
• 3: After Academy, you and any inspectors must complete three to four practice inspections and submit inspection reports for evaluation by the Technical Department.

You should be aware that there are specific statutory requirements in many states that apply to home inspector licensing, registration or certification, or otherwise regulate the operation of a home inspection business. Some states require attendance at their training sessions and passing a test before you can be licensed in that state. It is your responsibility to determine whether these requirements may apply to your Franchised Business and to comply with any applicable laws, rules or regulations.

Additional Training and Assistance. We may, but are not required, to provide or make available to franchisees training on the performance of other residential and commercial building inspections.

All franchisees wishing to perform commercial inspections must meet our standards as specified in the Operations Manual, obtain our approval, and become certified in commercial property inspections from a program that we approve.
