MEMBERSHIP TERMS

1. YOUR MEMBERSHIP

1.1 Overview: This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions
that apply to your membership (“Membership”) to Equinox Fitness
Clubs and, if included within your Membership class, Equinox
Sports Clubs (collectively, “Clubs”). You are responsible for
complying with this Agreement. A copy of your Agreement is
available in your account on http://www.equinox.com and, if you
provided an email address, will be e-mailed to you upon joining.
You may also contact Membership Administration if you need to
obtain another copy of your Agreement.

1.2 Minimum Commitment: Your Membership is for an initial

twelve (12) month commitment period (the “Initial Period”) and,
except for those limited cancellation rights expressly set forth in
Section 3.1 and 3.2 below, you may not cancel your Membership or
otherwise terminate this Agreement during the Initial Period.

1.3 Renewals: If you have a monthly Membership, your Membership

and this Agreement will automatically renew at the end of the
Initial Period and continue on a month-to-month basis until your
Membership is cancelled by you or Equinox, as described in Section
3. If you have a paid-in-full annual Membership, your Membership
and this Agreement will automatically expire at the end of the
Initial Period, unless you renew your Membership. Equinox
reserves the right to contact you, using any contact information on-
file with Equinox, to discuss your renewal options. You may also
visit or contact your Home Club to renew your Membership.
Membership Dues for all for monthly and paid-in-full Membership
renewals are subject to pricing changes, as described in Section
2.1.

1.4 Membership Freezes: You have certain rights to temporarily

suspend or “freeze” your account for up to three (3) months, or
longer for medically-necessitated freezes, as further described in
the Equinox Policies (as defined in Section 5.1). Non-medical
freezes are subject to an additional fee.

1.5 Non-Transferable: Your Membership is personal to you and is

non-transferable and non-descendible. Only you may use your
Membership, and you may not permit any other individual to access
and use any Club under your Membership.

1.6 Changes to Membership Class: You may change your

Membership class at any time, subject to the following conditions.
Your Membership Dues (as defined in Section 2.1) will be increased
(or decreased) to the then-current membership rate for your new
Membership class, and you will be required to sign a new
Payment/Electronic Funds Transfer Authorization form and, in

reserves the right to charge you an upgrade fee. Equinox reserves
the right to, in its discretion at any time, modify the names of

Membership was purchased and is listed at the beginning of this
Agreement. You may transfer your Home Club to another Club,
subject to the following conditions. You may only transfer your
Home Club to another Club within your Membership class. If you
have a “Select” Membership, this means you may only transfer to
another Club that offers “Select” membership (and your
Membership Dues will be adjusted to the then-current membership
rate for such other Club). If you want to transfer to a Club that
does not offer “Select” membership, you will need to upgrade your
Membership class in order to do so. Equinox reserves the right to
charge you a fee for transferring your Home Club.

1.8 Club Exclusions: You may only access and use the Club(s)
within your purchased Membership class. During your Membership,

Once Equinox implements an exclusion or limitation, you will no
longer have the right to access or use such affected Club(s),
notwithstanding any “All Access” or other similar designation of
Membership class and/or notwithstanding that such Club(s) may be
located within your regional area. Contact Membership
Administration for a current list of excluded Clubs.

Contact your employer with any questions regarding any special
terms that may apply to your corporate Membership.

2. PAYMENT POLICIES

2.1 Initiation Fee; Membership Dues: Unless expressly waived by

memberships, annual) membership dues (“Membership Dues”) will
remain at the rate set forth on page 1 of this Agreement (unless
you change your Membership class or Home Club, as described in
Section 1.6 and Section 1.7.) After the Initial Period, Equinox may,
in its discretion, increase or otherwise modify your Membership
Dues, upon at least thirty (30) days’ notice to you. Equinox may
also, in its discretion and at any time, change the date on which
electronic funds transfers are processed, upon at least thirty (30)

2.2 Ancillary Charges: You are responsible for paying all amounts
you incur during your Membership, including without limitation
fees for personal training and Pilates sessions, spa treatments and
other ancillary services, as well as purchases of retail or other
items (collectively, “Ancillary Charges”). Payment for Ancillary
Charges is due in full at the time of purchase, and Equinox has no
obligation to provide you with any ancillary service or good until

in Equinox’s discretion and may be prospectively modified by
Equinox at any time, with or without notice to you.

2.3 Non-Refundable: Your initiation fee, Membership Dues and

Ancillary Charges are non-refundable and, unless otherwise
expressly set forth in Section 3, you will not receive a refund of
any initiation fee, Membership Dues or Ancillary Charges as a
result of Membership cancellation or otherwise. From time to time
Equinox may provide you with certain complimentary or
promotional items, as further described in the Equinox Policies.
Complimentary items have no cash value and you are not entitled to
any refund or other amount for any complimentary item.

2.4 Good Standing: You are required to keep your Membership in

good standing by ensuring all Membership Dues and any Ancillary
Charges are paid on time. You are responsible for promptly

account or other payment account information (“Payment
Information”).

your Membership on your behalf and agreed to have their Payment

ultimately liable for all Membership Dues and Ancillary Charges
payable hereunder and you agree to make all payments hereunder
in the event Buyer fails to do so. This Agreement does not provide
Buyer with any rights of Membership and Buyer may not access and
use Clubs under your Membership.

lawful action in response to any past-due Membership Dues and/or
Ancillary Charges, including, without limitation: (1) charging the

costs incurred by Equinox in collecting any past-due amounts
associated with your Membership. Equinox may charge you a $20
fee for each credit card charge or check that is dishonored or
rejected as invalid. Please note that cancellation of your
Membership will not relieve you of your obligation to pay any past-
due or outstanding amounts.

7. ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER

7.1 Informal Dispute Resolution: Our goal is to do our best to

ensure that every experience you have with Equinox exceeds your
expectations. If that doesn’t happen, we hope you will give us the
opportunity to try to address any problem or concern. To do so,
please contact us by visiting http://www.equinox.com/contactus.
When contacting us, we ask that you include your name, address,
phone number and email address, a description of your problem or
concern and any specific relief you seek.

7.2 Arbitration: You agree to submit any and all Disputes (as
defined in Section 7.4) to binding arbitration pursuant to the
Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code), which
will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration
agreement (“Arbitration Agreement”). Arbitration will be before
either (1) JAMS (formerly known as Judicial Arbitration and
Mediation Services), http://www.jamsadr.com, or (2) the American
Arbitration Association (“AAA”), http://www.adr.org. If you
initiate arbitration, you may choose between these two arbitration
forums; if Equinox initiates arbitration, it will have the choice as
between these two arbitration forums.

YOU AND EQUINOX AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN

SECTION 7.4, ANY AND ALL DISPUTES WHICH ARISE AFTER
YOU ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE RESOLVED
EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION
RATHER THAN IN COURT BY A JUDGE OR JURY, IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.

7.3 Class Action Waiver: You agree that the arbitration of any
Dispute will be conducted on an individual, not a class-wide, basis,
and that no arbitration proceeding may be consolidated with any
other arbitration or other legal proceeding involving Equinox or
any other person. You further agree that you, and anyone asserting
a claim through you, will not be a class representative, class
member, or otherwise participate in a class, representative, or
consolidated proceeding against Equinox, and that the arbitrator of
any Dispute between you and Equinox may not consolidate more
than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any
form of a class or representative proceeding or claim (such as a
class action, representative action, consolidated action or private
attorney general action). If the foregoing class action waiver
(“Class Action Waiver”) or any portion thereof is found to be
invalid, illegal, unenforceable, unconscionable, void or voidable,
then the Arbitration Agreement will be unenforceable and the
Dispute will be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction. Any
claim that all or part of the Class Action Waiver is invalid, illegal,
unenforceable, unconscionable, void or voidable may be determined
only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator.

7.4 Definition of “Dispute”: Subject to the following exclusions,

“Dispute” means any dispute, claim, or controversy between you
and Equinox regarding any aspect of your relationship with
Equinox, whether based in contract, statute, regulation, ordinance,
tort (including without limitation fraud, misrepresentation,
fraudulent inducement, negligence, gross negligence or reckless
behavior), or any other legal, statutory or equitable theory, and
includes without limitation the validity, enforceability or scope of
the Agreement (except for the scope, enforceability and
interpretation of the Arbitration Agreement and Class Action
Waiver). However, “Dispute” will not include (1) personal injury
claims or claims for lost, stolen, or damaged property; (2) claims
that all or part of the Class Action Waiver is invalid,
unenforceable, unconscionable, void or voidable; and (3) any claim
for public injunctive relief, i.e., injunctive relief that has the
primary purpose and effect of prohibiting alleged unlawful acts
that threaten future injury to the general public. Such claims may
be determined only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by
an arbitrator.

7.5 Arbitration Procedures and Location: Either you or Equinox

may initiate arbitration proceedings. Arbitration will be conducted
before a single arbitrator. If you or Equinox initiate arbitration,
you and we have a choice of doing so before JAMS or the AAA:

(1) For arbitration before JAMS, the JAMS Comprehensive

Arbitration Rules & Procedures and the JAMS Recommended
Arbitration Discovery Protocols for Domestic, Commercial Cases
will apply. The JAMS rules are available at
http://www.jamsadr.com or by calling 1-800-352-5267.

(2) Which particular rules apply in AAA arbitration will depend on

how much money is at issue. For less than $75,000, the AAA’s
Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related
Disputes/Consumer Arbitration Rules will apply; for Disputes
involving $75,000 or more, the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration
Rules will apply. The AAA rules are available at
http://www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879.

If required for the enforceability of the Arbitration Agreement

under the Federal Arbitration Act, Equinox will pay all
arbitrator’s costs and expenses. If not, those costs will be paid as
specified in the above-referenced rules. You and Equinox both
agree to bring the arbitration in either Boston, Massachusetts or
New York City, New York. As set forth in Section 8.5 below, the
arbitrator will apply Massachusetts law.
