other payment mechanism automatically in order to renew your subscription upon Monterey’s
then-current pricing for the renewal. Monterey will attempt such a charge
no sooner than 60 days before the expiration of a Subscription. Upon receipt
of funds, your subscription shall automatically renew for another term of the paid-for
duration. UNLESS YOU NOTIFY US THAT YOU WISH TO NON-RENEW THE SUBSCRIPTION,
WE WILL AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGE IN THIS RENEWAL PROCESS FOR SO LONG AS WE CONTINUE
TO OFFER THE SUBSCRIPTION. IF YOU WISH TO NON-RENEW OR CHANGE THE SUBSCRIPTION,
YOU MUST NOTIFY US BEFORE THE TIME INDICATED ABOVE ON WHICH RENEWAL CHARGES MAY
BE ATTEMPTED BY MONTEREY.

fees or rates for Products from time to time, and to apply any new Subscription
fees at the time of renewal of your subscription. Prices and offers are subject
to change without notice. All shipping and handling charges are non-refundable.
Subscribers are responsible for all sales tax, tariffs, duties and fees. Payment
for your subscription, including renewals, is due in advance of the subscription
period.
