Ok, so we know that something is being parsed and presumably a matching 
$ is missing.

We found the issue.  Check out the 'command_line' line.

Do you see the difference, i.e. the unmatching $?

command_line  $USER1/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c $ARGS1$
should be
command_line  $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c $ARGS1$

Also, IIRC you want $ARG1$ as well.
