Not all free multiarrangements are extendable. We will discuss extendability of free multiarrangements for a special class. We also give two applications. The first is to produce totally non-free arrangements. The second is to give interpolating free arrangements between extended Shi and Catalan arrangements.7 pages, v2: errors corrected and expanded, v3: errors corrected.
