2. Prices:
User will pay Satellite the monthly fees as posted from time to time on Satellite’s website (or at the rate agreed for Users who have locked in rates for a period of time) for the membership category which User has selected. Further, User will pay Satellite for all additional products and services used by User which are not included within a membership payment, at the rate posted from time to time on Satellite’s website or at User’s Satellite location.

User will supply Satellite with a valid credit card number and any other information necessary to obtain payment from a major credit card company for all items used by User. User agrees that Satellite shall bill all fees and charges to User’s credit card, and that User will ensure that Satellite has valid credit card information at all times. User understands that credit cards will be billed for membership fees in advance and then on the same day of each following month and for all the other charges in arrears within the first ten days of the following monthly cycle. Satellite reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to accept other payment methods on an individual basis.

5. Indemnity / Insurance:
User is responsible for all damages or losses suffered by User in the course of using Satellite’s center, and User waives all claims against Satellite, or its agents, servants, employees, or other associated persons, arising out of User’s presence at the Center or any acts or omissions of User or its agents, servants, employees, or other associated persons.
User recognizes the need for User to have appropriate liability, health, and other insurance to protect User, and agrees that User will look solely to its own insurance and its own resources in regard to any injuries or damages incurred at the center or arising out of this contract or User’s activities or use of the center facilities.
User will defend, indemnify and hold Satellite, its agents, and employees harmless from and against any and all claims, suits, damages, losses, liability, obligations, fines, penalties, costs and expenses including legal fees and expenses, which arise from the rendering of services hereunder except to the extent any such matters arise from Satellite’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

8. Termination:
User may terminate this Agreement at any time on one month’s notice by notifying Satellite in writing.

If Satellite terminates or suspends User’s privileges, it may do so by deactivating User’s key card, without notice to user. If User has left behind any materials or personal property in a private office or storage area and User’s privileges are terminated or suspended, User may access such materials by making arrangements by phone to do so by meeting Satellite’s staff person at the Center during normal business hours.
9. Rules:
User confirms review of Satellite’s Member Agreement, User Rules and Community Guidelines and agrees to be bound by all such rules. Violation of the User Rules is ground for immediate termination or suspension of User privileges.
