applicable administrative fee per adjustment. Alternatively, upon the
purchase of additional Vacation Interests, said Member may elect to pay
the applicable additional annual Individual Membership fee at the time
such Vacation Interests are included with the Individual Membership,
whereupon II shall extend the term of said Member’s then-current
Individual Membership for an additional 12-month period per
additional membership fee paid.
2.
Upon the payment of the applicable Club Interval Gold
membership fee, an owner of a Vacation Interest is enrolled in the
Club Interval program, and the owner’s membership with II becomes
a Club Interval Gold membership as to all Vacation Interests owned,
both Eligible Vacation Interests and other Vacation Interests, including
Vacation Interests at other Member Resorts. Where an owner has an
existing Individual Membership and/or Interval Gold membership
for which such owner has remitted membership fees directly to II, at
the time of his or her purchase of an Eligible Vacation Interest, the
remaining value of such fees will be taken into consideration in
determining the appropriate term of the Club Interval Gold
membership. The value of any previously paid Interval Platinum
fees are not included in this consideration. If the existing Individual
Membership and Interval Gold membership have different expiration
dates, the expiration date of the Club Interval Gold membership may
differ, but the Member will have received the benefit of the prior
membership fees paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where a Club
Interval Gold Member owns a Vacation Interest at a Member Resort
participating in a corporate membership program, as well as an Eligible
Vacation Interest, said Member must maintain his or her Club Interval
Gold membership separate and distinct from his or her participation in
the corporate membership program.
Club Interval Gold membership
fees submitted by the Club Interval Gold Member are refundable on
a pro rata basis (based on the number of full months remaining in the
applicable membership period) upon a Club Interval Gold Member’s
request for cancellation of his or her membership and provided that the
Club Interval Gold Member also returns to II any Club Interval Gold
membership card(s) that he or she has received.
3.
Notwithstanding the provisions of foregoing Paragraphs 1 and
2, where a Member, a Club Interval Gold Member, or a Preferred
Residences Member owns a Vacation Interest at a Member Resort
participating in a corporate membership program, as well as owning
a Vacation Interest and/or an Eligible Vacation Interest at a Member
Resort through which the Member participates as an Individual
Member of the Exchange Program, said Member must maintain
his or her Individual Membership and/or the Club Interval Gold
membership separate and distinct from his or her participation in
the corporate membership program.
4.
Membership fees submitted by the Individual Member are
refundable on a pro-rata basis (based on the number of full months
remaining in the applicable membership period) upon a Member’s
request for cancellation of his or her membership. Upgrade fees for
Interval Gold status are refundable on the same basis, provided,
however, that the Member also returns to II any Interval Gold
membership card(s) that he or she has received. Upgrade fees for
Interval Platinum are nonrefundable under any circumstances.
Failure
to renew membership within 120 days from any expiration thereof
may require payment of a readmission fee to reinstate membership.
5. The applicable exchange processing fee per week to be confirmed
is subject to any applicable tax and must be paid at the time an
exchange request is made. Members who choose to utilize II’s website,
IntervalWorld.com, to transact an exchange request, are eligible for a
discount on the applicable processing fee, per week confirmed. If the
request is made by telephone, the exchange fee may be paid by a
credit card acceptable to II or by check. Where the exchange fee is
paid by check, however, confirmation will not occur until said check
has been received and processed by II. Accommodations will be held
for five calendar days pending receipt of a check for an exchange fee.
In addition, in any instance in which a Member pays a fee by check,
II reserves the right to collect an administrative fee where such check
is returned to II. Checks are not accepted for Confirmations with
occupancy commencement dates within 30 days or less.
Exchange
fees will be refunded only if an exchange cannot be confirmed, if
cancellation of the applicable exchange request is received by II prior
to Confirmation, or if cancellation is received by II within the first
24 hours of a Confirmation’s issuance. Exchange fees will not be
refunded under any other circumstances.
6. The applicable exchange processing fee (as described in Paragraph
4 above), plus any applicable tax, must be submitted by the Member
at the time a ShortStay Exchange Confirmation is received.
This
exchange fee is nonrefundable.
7. If the Deposit Extension Option is selected by the Member, an
additional fee per deposit is required at the time the deposit extension
is requested. The applicable fee is required to extend a deposit for six
or 12 months.
8. The purchase of E-Plus requires the payment of an additional fee,
plus any applicable tax, per exchange request or Confirmation.
An
E-Plus fee will only be refunded if the original exchange request
cannot be confirmed or if cancellation of the original exchange
request is received prior to Confirmation. E-Plus fees will not be
refunded under any other circumstances.
9. If a Guest Certificate is requested by any Member other than an
Interval Platinum Member, an additional fee per Confirmation is
required at the time the certificate is requested. If II does not issue a
Confirmation for which the Guest Certificate has been purchased, the
certificate fee will be refunded. Guest Certificate fees will not be
refunded under any other circumstances. Interval Platinum Members
are not required to pay a fee to request a Guest Certificate.
10. In the event that a Member sells, rents, exchanges, or otherwise
assigns the Home Resort accommodations to any third party after such
accommodations have been deposited with II, while a request is
pending with II, or after II has issued a Confirmation, II will assess
such Member an administrative fee. Additionally, such Member will
be responsible for all liabilities incurred by II in connection with the
double use of the accommodations by the Member. Under these
circumstances, membership privileges will be suspended (without
further obligation by II) until such time as all amounts owing have
been paid in full to II.
11. II may suspend membership privileges in the event a Member
fails to pay any amount owed to the Host Resort, II, or any other
company related to II.
12. Some jurisdictions have imposed a tax on the occupant of resort
accommodations. Consequently, any bed tax, transient occupancy tax,
or similar tax that is imposed shall, in those circumstances, be the
responsibility of the exchanging Member. Members may be required to
contact the Host Resort prior to arrival in order to prepay such taxes
and certain other resort fees. Additionally, Members are responsible for
all personal charges (e.g., telephone calls and meals) while at the Host
Resort, and any utility surcharge or other charge imposed by a resort,
as well as any damage to or loss or theft from the Host
Accommodations and facilities that is caused by Members or their
guests.
13. Fees, if any, charged by Member Resorts for certain services, meal
plans, and amenities are determined and levied by each resort. Such
fees are the responsibility of the Member. These fees vary from resort
to resort.
14. All fees may be increased from time to time by II, at its sole
discretion. Members will be advised of any such increases through
II’s regular publications or on II’s website, IntervalWorld.com.
