III. FEES

Club dues & fees for ongoing services: The agreed club dues for membership, as well as other agreed fees for ongoing or recurring services provided by JHF, are value-protected and due for payment in advance on the first of each calendar month, unless otherwise agreed in writing. If the term of membership or the permanent service begins or ends during a calendar month, the club fee or the respective service fee is to be paid on a pro-rata basis. In the event of (partial) non-use of Club services, the member shall not be entitled to a refund. The Club fee and other fees for permanent services shall be reduced or increased in accordance with the change in the Consumer Price Index 2005, or the index of the Federal Statistical Office of Austria replacing it, compared to the index figure announced for January 2005 and subsequently to the index figure last used for the valorization, whereby changes shall only be taken into account from 1.5 percent. The member shall pay the amended fees as of the first day of the month following receipt of the amendment letter from JHF.

Fees for individual services: The fees for individual services provided by JHF are due for payment prior to the respective service provision and are determined in accordance with the JHF price sheet valid at the time of service provision, unless a different fee is agreed in writing. The price sheet is available at the Clubs in its currently valid version. In the event of (partial) non-use of club services, the member has no right to a refund.

Default in payment: In the event of default in payment, JHF is entitled to interest on arrears at a rate of 5 percent p.a., as well as a claim for reminder charges of EUR 20.00 per reminder, and reimbursement of the costs of appropriate extrajudicial and judicial collection measures.

IV. SUBSEQUENT CHANGES

Changes in membership and contact details by the member: The member may request a change in the type of membership by submitting an amended membership application or change request, in each case with effect from the following calendar month. The member is obligated to immediately notify JHF in writing of any change of name or address.

Changes by JHF: The member will be notified in writing of any changes in the range of services and/or the fees and/or the GTC by JHF as a notice of change. If the member does not object to the changes in writing within four weeks of receipt of the change notice, the changes will become effective for the member at the time specified in the change notice. If the member objects to the changes in due time, the contractual relationship shall end after a period of two months, calculated from the receipt of the objection, as of the last day of the month. The member shall be specifically informed of the significance of his or her actions in the notice of change. The valid notice is available for inspection or free withdrawal in the clubs.

V. LIABILITY

JHF endeavors to ensure that the club is operated in an orderly manner. JHF is liable for any impairment of the services offered, as well as for damages only in the case of gross negligence or intent, on the part of the persons responsible for the proper operation of the Club. However, JHF does not assume any liability for temporary impairments of the range of services offered, in particular due to temporary closure of operations, loss of personnel, as well as due to maintenance or reconstruction work; in this case, there is also no entitlement to a reduction of fees. The Club member is responsible for the proper safekeeping of the items brought into the Club. JHF is not liable for lost or damaged items (e.g., cash, vouchers, credit bills) that have not been properly deposited in the valuables safes located at the reception desk; JHF may refuse to deposit such items in individual cases at its discretion. The liability for deposited valuables is limited to EUR 550.00.

VI. DURATION AND TERMINATION OF MEMBERSHIP

The membership is concluded for an indefinite period, unless otherwise agreed in writing. It can be terminated in writing (with signature) by either party after expiration of the agreed minimum contract period, subject to a notice period of two months to the last day of the month. Time tickets automatically lose their validity after expiry of the agreed period. JHF and the member are entitled to terminate the contract immediately for good cause in the sphere of the other contracting party. An important reason on the part of the member entitling JHF to terminate the contract immediately shall be deemed to exist, in particular, if the member disturbs the proper operation of the club, fails to use club facilities properly and thereby endangers himself/herself or third parties, damages club facilities, fails to comply with staff instructions, or is more than one month in arrears with the payment of due fees; in such cases, the member shall not be entitled to a refund of fees paid in advance.
