a period in excess of six months, as evidenced by a signed letter from your doctor or other reasonable proof of
your significant physical disability;
B) If you move your residence more than twenty-five miles from any health club operated by Blink (must provide
satisfactory proof of new residence);

in operation.

All monies, except the Start-Up Fee, paid pursuant to such contract cancelled for the reasons in this paragraph
shall be refunded provided however, that the Blink may retain the expenses incurred and the portion of the total
price representing the services used or completed, and further provided, that Blink may demand the reasonable
cost of goods and services which the Member consumed or wishes to retain after cancellation of the contract. In
no instance shall Blink demand more than the full contract price from the Member. If the Member has executed
any credit or loan agreement to pay for all or part of the health club services, such negotiable instrument
executed by the Member shall also be returned within fifteen (15) days. Promotional Months: Member agrees that
if Member received any free months as an inducement to enter into this Agreement, such free months shall not be
considered in computing the amount of any refund to which Member shall be entitled.
To exercise any of these cancellation rights you must notify Blink in writing in person at the Club or by certified

45 days’ notice of their cancellation and will then receive a prorate refund minus the $60 buy-out fee. PIF members with
an agreement for a term less than one year that cancel before the Expiration Date must provide 45 days’ notice of their
cancellation and will then receive a prorate refund. Corporate PIF members with an agreement for a one-year term that
cancel before the Expiration Date will not receive a refund if they cancel in the first six months of the term. After six
months, Corporate PIF members must provide 45 days’ notice of their cancellation and will receive a prorate refund. PIF
members can terminate by personal delivery of a written notice of cancellation at any club at which you are a member, or
by sending written notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, to Blink Fitness Member Services, 386 Park Ave S,
