. ACCEPTANCE OF AGREEMENT: It is mutually understood and agreed that this Customer Insertion Order shall become a contract between Advertiser and WholeLife Pages, LLC, doing business as WholeLife Pages, hereinafter called Publisher, upon acceptance of the Customer Insertion Order by Publisher at one of its offices. Publisher will refuse to publish advertising if Advertiser is delinquent in any payments due to Publisher, or for such other reasons as Publisher, in its sole discretion, may deem appropriate.
. SERVICE LIFE: The service life of a directory issue will normally be twelve (12) calendar months; however, Publisher may, at it's discretion, lengthen or shorten the life of the directory issue with no adjustment in the advertising charges due.
. PAYMENT TERMS: Advertiser agrees to pay the charges for the advertising as well as any other fees as indicated on the reverse side of this Agreement. Any unpaid balance of the advertising charges is due and payable upon receipt of each monthly statement. Any amounts not paid within 30 days of the date of such statement may thereafter bear a late charge at the rate of 1½%per month, or the highest rate allowed by applicable law, whichever is lower, until paid in full. Disconnection of telephone service does not relieve Advertiser of its obligations under this contract.
. ACCELERATION: Should Advertiser fail to make any payment when due, Publisher may, at its option, declare Advertiser in default and declare the entire balance owed by Advertiser to Publisher under this, or any other, agreement between Publisher and Advertiser immediately due and payable. Should Advertiser be in default, Publisher will have the right to charge the delinquent balance to the Advertiser's checking account or credit card on file.

Due to limited availability, specialty spots are non-cancelable after 48 hours on contract signing and all specialty item deposits and/or payments are totally non-refundable. All cancellations must be in writing and sent to the address shown in Paragraph 17(f). Other options including, but not limited to, a reduction in advertising space may be offered at the Publisher's discretion but are not guaranteed.
