We may temporarily move furnishings contained in your Office Space. We reserve the right to alter or relocate your Office Space, provided that we will not do so in a manner that substantially decreases the square footage of your assigned Office Space or related amenities. We may also modify or reduce the list of Services or furnishings provided for your Office Space at any time. The Services may be provided by us, an affiliate or a third party.

 

c.Office Space Not Timely Available. If we are unable to make the Office Space available by the Start Date we will not be subject to any liability related to such inability, nor will such inability affect the enforceability of this Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, provided that: (i) the failure to provide access to the Office Space does not last longer than two (2) months and (ii) at our sole discretion we will either (x) provide you with alternate office space (which may or may not be within a WeWork building) with reasonably comparable Capacity during such period and charge your Membership Fee or (y) not charge you the Membership Fee during the period the Office Space is not available to you. Following the two (2) month period set forth in (i) above, you shall have the ability to terminate this Agreement upon seven (7) days’ prior notice to us. If we do provide you alternate office space as described in clause (x) above, during the period we provide you with such alternate office space, the individuals named as Members shall be deemed to be Members and otherwise shall be fully subject to the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph to the contrary, if the delay in providing the Office Space is due to your actions or inactions or due to changes in or work to the Office Space requested by you, we will not be subject to any liability related to such delay nor will such delay affect the validity of this Agreement and we shall have no obligations to provide you with the benefits described in subsections (x) and (y) of this paragraph and you shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement and shall be liable for the payment of the Membership Fees from the Start Date.

3.YOUR MEMBERS

 

a.Member List. You are responsible for maintaining the accuracy of your list of Members on the WeWork Member Network (your “Member List”). Only those individuals included on the Member List will be deemed to be “Members” and entitled to receive the Services described in this Agreement. To the extent permitted by law, all of your Members shall be required to provide valid government issued identification in order to be issued an activated key card to access the Premises. If the number of Members or other individuals regularly using your Office Space exceeds the Capacity, you will be required to pay the then current additional fee as set forth on our website. In no event will the number of Members exceed 1.5 times the Capacity, regardless of additional fees paid; however affiliated members with other active memberships offered by WeWork such as We Membership, Hot Desk, and/or separate Dedicated Desk Memberships using desks outside of the Office Space will not count towards this limit. We reserve the right to further limit the number of Members allowed at any point.

 

 2 

 

 

Upon the addition of a Member to the Member List, WeWork will create a profile for such Member on the WeWork Member Network. Such profile will be viewable by us, our employees and agents, and other members. The created profile will include only the Member’s name and the Member Company; any additional information, including a photograph, shall be added solely as determined by you or your Members.

 

b.Changes to or Removal of Primary Member or Authorized Signatory. An Authorized Signatory generally has the sole authority to make changes to or terminate this Agreement. A Primary Member will generally serve as WeWork’s primary contact regarding matters that involve your Members, the physical Office Space or the Premises. If no Authorized Signatory other than the Primary Member is designated by you on the Membership Details Form, the Primary Member will serve as the Authorized Signatory. We will be entitled to rely on communications to or from the Authorized Signatory or Primary Member as notice to or from the applicable Member Company. However, an executive officer of the applicable Member Company (“Executive Officer”) will have the authority to override the request of an Authorized Signatory or Primary Member, as applicable, provided that we receive such a request within 24 hours following such Authorized Signatory’s or Primary Member’s request. We will be entitled to request reasonable documentation to confirm that an individual claiming to be an Executive Officer truly is one and to exercise our discretion in determining whether a particular position constitutes an “Executive Officer.” An Executive Officer will also have the authority to remove or replace the individual serving as the Authorized Signatory and/or Primary Member. Unless we receive instructions from the Authorized Signatory or Executive Officer, if the individual designated as the Primary Member ceases to provide services to the Member Company or ceases using the Office Space regularly, we will use our reasonable judgment in designating a replacement Primary Member.

 

4.MEMBERSHIP FEES; PAYMENTS

 

a.Payments Due Upon Signing. Upon submitting a signed and completed Agreement, you will be obligated to deliver to us, in the amount(s) set forth on your Membership Details Form, (i) the Service Retainer and (ii) the Set-Up Fee.

 

b.Membership Fee. During the Term (defined below) of this Agreement, your Membership Fee will be due monthly and in advance as of the first (1st) day of each month. You are obligated to make payment of all Membership Fees owed throughout the Commitment Term and this obligation is absolute notwithstanding any early termination of the Agreement by you (“Membership Fee Obligations”). You agree to pay promptly: (i) all sales, use, excise, value added, and any other taxes which you are required to pay to any other governmental authority (and, at our request, will provide to us evidence of such payment) and (ii) all sales, use, excise, value added and any other taxes attributable to your Membership as shown on your invoice. The Membership Fee set forth on the Membership Details Form covers the Services for only the number of Members indicated in the Membership Details Form. Additional Members will result in additional fees as set forth on our website.

 

On each anniversary of the Start Date (including during any Commitment Term) the Membership Fee will be subject to an automatic three percent (3%) increase over the then current Membership Fee. Following any Commitment Term, we reserve the right to further increase or decrease the Membership Fee at our sole discretion upon thirty (30) days’ prior notice to you in advance of and in accordance with the Termination Notice Period described below in Section 5(d).

 

c.Invoices; Financial Information. WeWork will send or otherwise provide invoices and other billing-related documents, information and notices to the Primary Member or, if a Billing Contact is indicated on the Membership Details Form, the Billing Contact. Change of the Billing Contact will require notice from the Authorized Signatory in accordance with this Agreement.

 

d.Credits; Overage Fees. Each month, you will receive a certain number of credits for conference room use and a certain number of credits for color and black and white copies and printouts, as specified on the Membership Details Form. These allowances may not be rolled over from month to month. If these allocated amounts are exceeded, you will be responsible for paying fees for such overages. The current overage fee schedule is listed on our website. All overage fees are subject to increase from time to time at our sole discretion.

 

e.Late Fees. If payment for the Membership Fee or any other accrued and outstanding fee is not made by the tenth (10th) of the month in which such payment is due, you will be responsible for paying the then-current late charge. The current late fee schedule is listed on our website. All late fees are subject to increase from time to time at our sole discretion.

 

 3 

 

 

f.Form of Payment. We accept payment of all amounts specified in this Agreement solely by the methods we communicate to you during the membership sign up process or from time to time during the Term. You are required to inform us promptly of any changes to your payment information. Changing your payment method may result in a change in the amount required under this Agreement to be held as the Service Retainer.

 

g.Outstanding Fees. Any outstanding fees will be charged in arrears on a monthly basis. When we receive funds from you, we will first apply funds to any balances which are in arrears (including any outstanding late fees) and to the earliest month due first. Once past balances are satisfied, any remaining portion of the funds will be applied to current fees due. If any payments remain outstanding after we provide notice to you, we may, in our sole discretion, withhold Services or terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 5.

 

h.No Refunds. Except as otherwise provided for herein, there are no refunds of any fees or other amounts paid by you or your Members in connection with the Services.

 

5.TERM AND TERMINATION

 

a.Term. This Agreement will be effective when signed by both parties (“Effective Date”); provided that we have no obligations to provide you with the Services until the later of (i) the date on which payment of your Service Retainer, Set-Up Fee and first month’s Membership Fee has been received by us or (ii) the Start Date. Unless otherwise set forth on the Membership Details Form, following the Commitment Term, this Agreement shall continue on a month-to-month basis (any term after the Commitment Term, a “Renewal Term”), subject to the Termination Notice Periods (defined below). The Commitment Term and all subsequent Renewal Terms shall constitute the “Term.” If no Commitment Term is indicated on your Membership Details Form, the default Commitment Term shall commence on the Start Date and end one (1) full calendar month after the Start Date. This Agreement will continue until terminated in accordance with this Agreement.

 

b.Move In / Move Out. If the Start Date is a Regular Business Day, you will be entitled to move into the Office Space no earlier than 11:00 a.m. on the Start Date, provided you have complied with the payment obligations described in Section 5(a). If the Start Date is not a Regular Business Day, you will be entitled to move into the Office Space no earlier than 11:00 a.m. on the first Regular Business Day after the Start Date. On the last Regular Business Day of the Termination Effective Month (defined below), you must vacate the Office Space by no later than 4:00 p.m.

 

c.Termination Prior to Start Date by You. In addition to any other remedies we may pursue, terminating this Agreement prior to the Start Date will result in the immediate forfeiture of the Set-Up Fee and Service Retainer as well as any amounts expended by WeWork at your request to prepare the Office Space for your use. You remain obligated to pay such amounts in the event you have not paid any portion thereof at the time of the termination.

 

d.Termination by You. You may terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to us prior to the month in which you intend to terminate this Agreement (“Termination Effective Month”) in accordance with the notice periods set forth in the chart below (the “Termination Notice Period(s)”). The applicable Termination Notice Period shall be determined by the Commitment Term and Capacity for the relevant Individual Office Number, as depicted in the chart below, and as displayed on the Membership Details Form. The Termination Notice Periods shall apply to any termination by you during the Term. After receiving such notice we will deliver to you the WeWork Exit Form (“Exit Form”), which you must complete and submit to us. The termination will be effective on the later of the last Regular Business Day of the Termination Effective Month and the expiration of the Commitment Term. No termination by you shall be effective during the Commitment Term (except pursuant to Section 2(c)), and termination by you during the Commitment Term is a breach of this Agreement. Downgrade of the Office Space (i.e. transferring to an office space with a lower Capacity) is also not permitted during the Commitment Term. If you terminate this Agreement prior to the end of the Commitment Term (or during any relevant Termination Notice Period), your Membership Fee Obligations shall become immediately due. In addition to any rights, claims and remedies we choose to pursue in our discretion, your Service Retainer shall be forfeited immediately as a result of your breach. Notice must be provided during Regular Business Hours. The Exit Form needs to be completely filled out and signed by the Authorized Signatory; however, please note that the termination of your Agreement on the last Regular Business Day of the Termination Effective Month will be triggered upon your provision of written notice of termination to us, regardless of when you complete and submit the Exit Form. You will not be entitled to pro ration with respect to the last month’s Membership Fee. For instance, if you vacate your Office Space before the last Regular Business Day of April, you will still owe us the full Membership Fee for the full month of April.

You will be responsible for paying any fees reasonably incurred by us regarding such removal. We shall have no implied obligations as a bailee or custodian, and you hereby indemnify us and agree to keep us indemnified in respect of any claims of any third parties in respect of such property.
