THIS STUDIO MEMBERSHIP AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the Effective Date stated in the executed Agreement, by and between Colorado Creative Group, L.L.C., a Colorado limited liability company, whose address is 11 S. 25th Street, Suite 220, Colorado Springs, CO 80904 (“Provider”), and the Member identified in the executed Agreement (“Member”).
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants, promises and other good and valuable consideration contained in this Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, Provider and Member agree as follows:
Membership and License GrantA revocable license — not a lease
Provider grants Member a revocable, non-exclusive, non-assignable, non-transferable, temporary personal license (expressly not a lease) to access and use the office space located at 130 E. Kiowa Street, Suite 202, Colorado Springs, CO 80903 (the “Studio”) and associated amenities solely through Provider’s designated online reservation platform (the “Platform”), subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Platform Terms of Service (incorporated by reference), and Provider’s Studio Rules, which Provider may implement or modify from time to time.
Member hereby acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement is intended to create a revocable license only and not a lease or any real property interest under Colorado law. This license confers no property interest, tenancy, or exclusive possession, nor shall anything herein be construed as granting Member any rights protected under Colorado landlord-tenant statutes.
Term and RenewalSix-month initial term, then month-to-month
The license granted to Member under this Agreement shall be for a minimum initial term of six (6) months, commencing on the date set forth in the executed Agreement and expiring on the Expiration Date stated therein. After the expiration of the initial Term, the Term of this Agreement shall automatically renew on a month-to-month basis, unless terminated by Provider or Member by giving no less than thirty (30) days prior written notice before the end of the then current Term.
The license to use the Studio granted herein is non-transferable. Subleasing or sharing membership rights or license rights to use the Studio is not permitted under any circumstances.
Fees, Payments, and BillingMembership fees, deposits, and late charges
3.1 — Initial Membership Fee; Usage Rights: Concurrent with the execution of this Agreement, Member shall pay to Provider an initial membership fee as stated in the executed Agreement. In consideration of the Membership Fee, Provider grants to Member the number of hours per month stated in the executed Agreement to use the Studio, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. The total hours granted to Member per month do not rollover to subsequent months. All unused hours are forfeited by Member upon the expiration of the current month, and in no event shall Member be entitled to a refund or credit for any unused hours. Additional hours over and above the monthly allotted amount may be purchased by Member through the Platform at the hourly rate, and up to the monthly maximum, stated in the executed Agreement. Provider hereby expressly reserves the right to modify Membership Fees (except Member’s Initial Membership Fee for the initial Term shall not be subject to change after execution of this Agreement), Renewal Fees, and fees for additional hours as reasonably determined by Provider and upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Member. Any continued use of the Studio and the Platform by Member after receipt of such notice shall be deemed Member’s acceptance of any such changes to fees due hereunder.
3.2 — Renewal Fees: Upon expiration of the initial Term, the monthly fee due thereafter shall be the renewal amount stated in the executed Agreement, due on the first day of each month.
3.3 — Damage Deposit: In addition to the initial membership fee set forth in Section 3.1 above, Member shall pay to Provider, concurrent with the execution of this Agreement, a damage deposit in the amount stated in the executed Agreement, which shall be refundable to Member upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement, less deductions for damages, unpaid fees, cleaning, or restoration costs incurred by Provider, as determined by Provider in its reasonable discretion.
3.4 — Payment Method; Late Fees; Interest: All fees due hereunder will be charged via the Platform. Member agrees to provide a valid credit card and corresponding authorization on the Platform for Provider to collect all fees due hereunder. Any credit card charges that are denied or any fees otherwise not paid when due hereunder shall be deemed late, and Member shall incur a late fee equal to five percent (5%) of the amount due. Any fees not paid within ten (10) days after the date due shall thereafter accrue default interest at the rate of 1.5% per month, plus any collection costs incurred by Provider. All fees due hereunder are non-refundable, except as expressly stated herein.
Reservations and Platform UsageBooking, cancellations, and access
4.1 — Reservation Requirement: Member acknowledges and agrees that all use of the Studio is strictly reservation-based. Member must book the Studio in advance exclusively through Provider’s Platform. A confirmed booking grants Member a temporary, limited exclusive-use license for the specific reserved area only during the exact booked date and time period. Outside of confirmed reservations, Member has no right to occupy any portion of the Studio, and Provider may permit other users to use any unreserved or vacated areas. The Studio cannot be booked for a time period of less than one hour.
4.2 — Booking Policies: Reservations are subject to real-time availability, Platform rules, usage limits (e.g., maximum hours per day/week/month), and Provider’s operational needs. Provider reserves the right to modify, cancel, or reassign reservations with reasonable notice (where feasible) for maintenance, repairs, safety, events, overbooking corrections, or force majeure events. Member’s use of the Studio must begin and end within the specified time period reserved on the Platform. Late arrivals to the Studio shall in no event entitle Member to extend the session’s booked time period.
4.3 — Cancellation and No-Show Policy: Cancellations must be made through the Platform at least 24 hours before the scheduled start time to avoid charges. No-shows or late cancellations will result in full forfeiture of the booked hours. Repeated no-shows or abusive booking practices (e.g., blocking space without use) may result in suspension of booking privileges or termination of the Agreement, as determined in Provider’s sole discretion. Provider’s cancellation policy is subject to change with reasonable notice via the Platform or email to the Member.
4.4 — Platform Terms and Account Security: Member’s use of the Platform is governed by Provider’s Platform Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, which are incorporated herein by reference. In the event of conflict between this Agreement and the Platform Terms, this Agreement shall control with respect to the license grant and core membership terms. Member is solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of its Platform account credentials. All activity under Member’s account is Member’s responsibility. Member shall immediately notify Provider of any suspected unauthorized access. Provider may monitor Platform usage for security, compliance, and operational purposes. Technical issues, outages, or Platform unavailability do not relieve Member of payment obligations, though Provider will use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve them.
4.5 — Access and Amenities: Access is granted only during confirmed reservation periods and subject to Provider’s posted hours, security protocols, and building rules. Amenities available to Member during each booked Studio session include: internet access, printing, and standard office utilities, but all such amenities are subject to fair usage limits and possible temporary unavailability. Member shall not exceed occupancy limits or bring unapproved guests without prior reservation and Provider approval. Provider makes no guarantee of continuous availability, and Provider retains the right to modify or reconfigure the Studio or the amenities included with use of the Studio.
Mandatory Orientation; Use Rules, and ConductOrientation requirement and Studio Rules
5.1 — Mandatory Orientation: All Members must complete a mandatory Studio orientation with an authorized representative of Provider before making any reservations on the Platform. Provider will reasonably cooperate with Member to schedule Studio Orientations, which shall include orientation on the use of the amenities, equipment, Studio Rules, and safety guidelines. No reservations or other access to the Studio will be permitted until the Member has satisfied this orientation requirement.
5.2 — Studio Rules: All Members shall use the Studio solely for lawful, professional business purposes and only during confirmed reservation time periods. Each Member agrees to comply with the Studio Rules issued by Provider, the Platform policies, and all applicable laws, including safety, fire, and accessibility codes, building codes, land use regulations, and occupancy ordinances applicable to the Studio. During any reservation, the Member shall keep the Studio in a clean condition, limit noise and guests so as to not disturb other occupants of the building in which the Studio is located, and Members shall vacate the Studio promptly at the end of each reserved time period. No Member shall be permitted to perform alterations to the Studio, allow or otherwise permit the presence or use of hazardous materials in the Studio, use the Studio for overnight storage (unless approved by Provider), or otherwise use the Studio to engage in any illegal/nuisance activities. Members shall report any damage to the Studio or the equipment, furniture, or fixtures therein to Provider immediately. Provider reserves the right to amend the Studio Rules with reasonable notice.
