A4: Whereas the party of the first part, also known as "Lawyer", and 
the party of the second part, also known as "Light Bulb", do hereby 
and forthwith agree to a transaction wherein the party of the second
part (Light Bulb) shall be removed from the current position as a
result of failure to perform previously agreed upon duties, i.e., the 
lighting, elucidation, and otherwise illumination of the area ranging 
from the front (north) door, through the entryway, terminating at an 
area just inside the primary living area, demarcated by the beginning 
of the carpet, any spillover illumination being at the option of the 
party of the second part (Light Bulb) and not required by the 
aforementioned agreement between the parties.

The aforementioned removal transaction shall include, but not be 
limited to, the following steps:

    1.) The party of the first part (Lawyer) shall, with or without
elevation at his option, by means of a chair, stepstool, ladder or
any other means of elevation, grasp the party of the second part
(Light Bulb) and rotate the party of the second part (Light Bulb)
in a counter-clockwise direction, this point being non-negotiable.

   2.) Upon reaching a point where the party of the second part
(Light Bulb) becomes separated from the party of the third part
("Receptacle"), the party of the first part (Lawyer) shall have the
option of disposing of the party of the second part (Light Bulb) in a 
manner consistent with all applicable state, local and federal statutes.

   3.) Once separation and disposal have been achieved, the party
of the first part (Lawyer) shall have the option of beginning
installation of the party of the fourth part ("New Light Bulb").

This installation shall occur in a manner consistent with the
reverse of the procedures described in step one of this self-same
document, being careful to note that the rotation should occur in a
clockwise direction, this point also being non-negotiable.

   NOTE: The above described steps may be performed, at the option of 
the party of the first part (Lawyer), by any or all persons authorized
by him, the objective being to produce the most possible revenue
for the party of the fifth part, also known as "Partnership."
