   (B)   In addition, any person operating a non-permitted alarm system will be subject to a fine (see Appendix A: Fine and Fee Table) for each false alarm in addition to any other fines. The alarm administrator may waive this additional fine for a non-permitted system if the alarm user submits an application for alarm permit within ten days after notification of such violation.

In this situation, the false alarm will not be counted against the alarm user.
   (D)   The monitoring company shall be subject to a fine (see Appendix A: Fine and Fee Table) for each failure to verify alarm system signals as specified in § 97.05(E)(2).
   (E)   An alarm user shall be subject to a fine for operating an alarm system during the time the alarm permit is under suspension (see Appendix A: Fine and Fee Table).
