and chosen by you (“Plan”). WHEREAS, Program Provider will operate as the administrator of the 
Program, will collect enrollment fees and monthly plan payments from you. You desire to participate 
in the Program and receive wellness care and services from the Program Provider selected by you at 
the rates hereinafter set forth. You understand that the Program is not an insurance program:

declined credit card or otherwise) in any month,

Services will be immediately suspended by the Program Provider and remain suspended until all 
amounts are fully paid. In the event that the account is not brought current within 15 days of 
failed payment, Program Provider may at their discretion cancel the plan and all services performed 
will be billed at full price from the beginning of the contract date with no credit applied for 
monthly payments. This is a subscription, not a pre-paid plan. Any default on payments does not 
allow for credit to be applied for previous services rendered.

each renewal Term, unless you terminate or cancel your Agreement as provided herein. The Plan 
renewal Term charge will be the same as the prior Term’s charge, unless we notify you in advance at 
the time of sign up or prior to the beginning of the renewal Term as described above. Each time you 
use our Plan you reaffirm your agreement that we may charge your credit card (or other form of 
payment, if applicable). In the event we cannot charge your account, we reserve the right to
