OF YOUR
TERMINATION OF
THIS AGREEMENT
IN THE MANNER
DESCRIBED
BELOW.
1. This
Agreement
shall be for
an "Initial
Term" of
thirty (30)
days for
Hosting.
Customer
agrees to all
terms and
conditions of
services
provided by
bustitouthosting.com,
beginning upon
receipt by
fax, e-mail,
or express
mail.
2. All charges
for Services
are
non-refundable
and must be
paid in
advance
according to
the then
current price
applicable to
the Services.
Upon
registration
for
Hosting
Services,
customer must
choose to pay
for the
Services
either by
credit card
via paypal or
upon your
receipt of an
invoice. If
customer
chooses to pay
by credit card
upon
registering
for Hosting
Services,
customer
thereby
authorizes
bustitouthosting.com
to charge you
to pay for any
charges that
may apply to
your account.
Customer
agrees that
bustitouthosting.com
may accumulate
any
supplemental
charges, as
described in
the Order
Form, incurred
by you in your
use of the
Services
("Supplemental
Charges")
until such
charges exceed
$20 and then
invoice the
charges to
customer.
Customer must
notify
bustitouthosting.com
of any changes
to your
billing
information,
your billing
address, or
any
information
that may
prohibit
bustitouthosting.com
from charging
you. If
customer
chooses to be
invoiced upon
registration
for
Hosting
Services,
bustitouthosting.com
will send an
invoice to you
for the
Services
applicable to
the period for
which you have
registered for
the Services.
bustitouthosting.com
may also send
periodic
invoices to
customer for
any applicable
Supplemental
Charges
associated
with your use
of the
Services.
Customer
agrees to pay
to
bustitouthosting.com
the amount
indicated in
each invoice
by the due
date reflected
on the
invoice. If
customer fails
to pay any
fees and taxes
within three
(3) days from
applicable due
date for
credit card or
invoice
payments, late
charges of the
lesser of one
and one-half
per cent
(1.5%) per
month or the
maximum
allowable
under
applicable law
shall also
become payable
by you to
bustitouthosting.com.
In addition,
customer's
failure to
fully pay any
fees and taxes
within five
(5) days after
the applicable
due date will
be deemed a
material
breach of this
Agreement,
justifying
bustitouthosting.com
suspension of
its
performance of
the Services
and/or
termination of
this
Agreement.
Customer is
responsible
for any fees
associated
with
reinstated of
Services. Any
such
termination
would not
relieve
customer from
paying past
due fees plus
interest. In
the event of
collection
enforcement,
customer will
be liable for
any costs
associated
with such
collection,
including,
without
limitation,
reasonable
attorneys'
fees, court
costs and
collection
agency fees.
3. This
Agreement will
be
automatically
renewed (the
"Renewal
Term") at the
end of the
Initial Term
for the same
period as the
Initial Term
unless you
provide
bustitouthosting.com
with notice of
termination
either (a) at
least thirty
(30) days
prior to the
end of the
Initial Term
or the Renewal
Term,
whichever is
then
applicable.
4. Initial
payment is due
upon
activation of
account.
Activation
takes effect
on the date of
receipt of
payment, and
will be
renewed
automatically
for identical
successive
periods. Any
changes made
to the
customer's
package shall
be billed
accordingly.

acceptance by
bustitouthosting.com.

be deemed

of the order
is sent to the
customer. We
may refuse to
accept any
order, or
delay
acceptance
awaiting
completion of
conditions the
company may
choose to
exercise. Such
refusal of
such
conditions may
not be
unreasonable,
however, and
bustitouthosting.com
agrees to
provide the
customer with
reasonable
notice by
E-mail or fax
of any intent
to delay or
decline the
acceptance of
any order.

the basis upon
which it was
arrived at.

any, rendered
by the
arbitrators

having
