137

Premium Services ("Subscription") require you to pay a fee, which is described in greater detail below. You agree to pay all fees and charges you incur, in US dollars with a major credit card accepted by MediaFire. Subscription fees are non-refundable except as expressly set forth below. You hereby authorize us to charge your credit card to pay for the ongoing cost of Subscription. Payment for the appropriate Subscription and/or Services will be made by automatic charges to your credit card. Upon its expiration, your Subscription will be automatically renewed for a term (1) equal to the original subscription term or (2) in accordance with the terms of a special subscription offer ("Promotion"), and continually renewed for equal terms thereafter, unless you terminate your Subscription pursuant to the process set forth below. You acknowledge and agree that the authorization to charge your credit card for our Subscriptions shall automatically transfer to any successors or assigns of the Services.

The Terms of Payment are an integral, material part of these Terms of Service, and are incorporated into these Terms of Service by reference. [Visit our Terms of Payment for more information](https://mediafire.com/policies/terms_of_payment.php)

The billing period ends each term on the anniversary of your activation date. You agree to pay all fees and charges that you incur through your account, including, but not limited to, applicable taxes. You will be responsible for charges for any products or services that you purchase that are offered for sale through our Services. In addition, you are responsible for paying any amounts billed to your credit card by someone who uses your card, such as a secondary card holder or family member, or if you authorized use of your card by someone else for the initial Subscription. If payment cannot be charged to your credit card or your payment is returned to us for any reason, including chargeback, we reserve the right to either suspend or terminate your account and our obligations under this Agreement. If you provide us with a new/updated card and are successfully charged, your renewal period will be based on the original renewal date and not the date of the successful charge.

PROMOTIONAL SUBSCRIPTIONS ARE RENEWED AT THE THEN CURRENT NON-PROMOTIONAL FEE.

From time to time, we may offer different subscription plans and the fees for such plans may vary. A detailed description of current premium services and features can be found on the Product Matrix page or by contacting Customer Service.

143

A 30 Day Free Trial offer may be provided to MediaFire free users after which MediaFire will charge the provided credit card to continue the Premium subscription on a recurring basis, unless the user has first cancelled the subscription. Upon acceptance of the trial, MediaFire will send an authorization request to your financial institution to verify that your payment method works. These requests are not charges, but in some cases may temporarily affect your available account balance. You will not be charged if you do not continue the service. MediaFire reserves the right, in its absolute discretion, to determine who receives the offer, or to withdraw or modify the offer at any time without prior notice or liability.

Business services offer "Rollover Bandwidth". Unused bandwidth in each billing period will become available in subsequent billing periods, without time limitations for usage. If you upgrade your plan, you will be billed immediately for the new plan and any unused bandwidth from your previous plan will be rolled over into your new plan. Additional increments of bandwidth may be purchased for immediate use, which qualifies as Rollover Bandwidth. This one time purchase is not a recurring charge and will not affect the pricing of your Subscription service. You may view your billing history from your My Account page.

Pro services will be allocated 500GB of total storage, and a minimum of 1TB of bandwidth every 30 days, based on your initial subscription date. Additional increments of bandwidth may be purchased. If you have less than 1TB available at the beginning of the next 30 day period, your bandwidth will be automatically increased to 1TB. If your account is in excess of 1TB, bandwidth will not be added or deducted
