CONSUMER PROTECTION CLAUSES:

This contract provides for the penalty-free cancellation of the contract within 3 days, exclusive of holidays and weekends, of its making, upon the mailing or delivery of written notice to BBC, and refund upon such notice of all monies paid under the contract, except that BBC may retain an amount computed by dividing the number of occasions health studio services are to be rendered into the total contract price and multiplying the result by the number of complete days that have passed since the making of the contract or, if appropriate, by the number of occasions that health studio services have been rendered. A refund shall be issued within thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice of cancellation made within the 3-day provision. [s. 501.017(1) (a), F.S.]

This contract provides that notice of intent to cancel by Member shall be given in writing the BBC. Such a notice of cancellation from Member shall also terminate automatically the consumer's obligation to any entity to whom the BBC has subrogated or assigned Members contract. If BBC wishes to enforce such contract after receipt of such showing, it may request the Department to determine the sufficiency of the showing. [s. 501.017(1)(b)2, F.S.]

This contract provides that if the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services determines that a refund is due Member, the refund shall be an amount computed by dividing the contract price by the number of weeks in the contract term and multiplying the result by the number of weeks remaining in the contract term. The business location of a health studio shall not be deemed out of business when temporarily closed for repair and renovation of the premises:

      1.   Upon sale, for not more than fourteen (14) consecutive days; or

      2.   During ownership, for not more than seven (7) consecutive days and not more than two (2) periods of seven (7) consecutive days in any calendar year.

This contract provides for the cancellation of the contract if Member dies or becomes physically unable to avail himself or herself of a substantial portion of those services which Member used from the commencement of the contract until the time of disability, with refund of funds paid or accepted in payment of the contract in an amount computed by dividing the contract price by the number of weeks in the contract term and multiplying the result by the number of weeks remaining in the contract term. The contract may require Member or Member's estate seeking relief under this paragraph to provide proof of disability or death. A physical disability sufficient to warrant cancellation of the contract by Member shall be established if Member furnishes to BBC a certification of such disability by a physician licensed under Chapter 458, 459, 460, or Chapter 461 provided the diagnosis or treatment is within the physicians scope of practice. A refund shall be issued within thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice of cancellation made pursuant to this paragraph. [s. 501.017(1)(d), F.S.]

This contract provides that the initial contract will not be for a period in excess of thirty-six (36) months, and thereafter shall only be renewable annually. Such renewal contracts may not be executed and the fee therefore paid until sixty (60) days or less before the preceding contract expires. [s. 501.017(1)(e), F.S.]

 This contract provides that if the health studio requires a Member to furnish identification upon entry to the facility and as a condition of using the services of the health studio, the health studio shall provide the Member with the means of such identification. [s. 501.017(1)(f), F.S.]
