I’m trying to see if this is a contradiction in the proposed TA

From A.1(f) of the Fatigue letter of agreement

(f) A crewmember who is scheduled to finish an assignment beyond the limits of FAR 117 FDP limitations, and who does not agree to an extension of any kind beyond the FDP limit, must provide a reason. The pilot and crew scheduler, in the interest of safety, are prohibited from offering and/or accepting any form of incentive for extending beyond FDP limits.
From section 3.C.5

5. Flight Duty Period (FDP) Extension Pay

A pilot who is fit for duty and who accepts any FDP extension will be paid two (2) hours of pay above guarantee at 100%. Such pilot must be available for the full two hours permitted under the FARs in order to receive the additional pay under this provision. So long as the pilot does not subsequently declare himself unfit for duty, such pilot will receive the FDP extension pay. The pilot will receive the extension pay if the flight cancels after the extension is accepted.
The fatigue LOA prohibits compensation as an incentive for extending past a FDP limit, but section 3 is offering 2 hours above guarantee to extend past a FDP limit. Not only that, you are now required to provide a reason for being fatigued? Or provide a reason for refusal to extend? What reason are we being forced to provide?
