Last Updated: 02/27/2023

This STUDIO AGREEMENT AND TERMS AND CONDITIONS (this "Agreement") is made by and between The SnapBar, LLC, a Washington limited liability company (the "Company") and the inquirer of services (the "Client") relating to a virtual headshot studio of any duration (the "Studio”) confirmed through a quote (the "Quote") sent to and approved via electronic signature by the Client.

YOU ARE ENTERING INTO A CONTRACT WITH THE COMPANY. PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT IN ITS ENTIRETY.

This Agreement is a contract between you, as the Client or as agent for the Client, and the Company. This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the Company and the Client and supersedes all prior and simultaneous contracts or agreements between the parties.

RESERVATION, FEES, AND PRICING

SERVICE FEE: The service fee (the "Service Fee") encompasses only those items included in the list of services located in the invoice sent by the Company to the Client. The Service Fee is composed of the Client’s selection of, A - the plan, B - additional credits, and, C – any additional add-ons. The Service Fee does not include applicable state sales tax. The Company will be under no duty to perform its obligations under this Agreement until such time as Client has paid the Service Fee in full.

RESERVATION & CANCELLATION: A signed Quote and the Service Fee are required for the Company to provide the Client with a Studio. If the Client wishes to cancel their order or if there is a breach of this Agreement by the Client, this Agreement shall be terminated; the Company shall be entitled to keep the Service Fee and the Client agrees that it shall have no recourse to recover the Service Fee.

ADDITIONAL PAYMENT TERMS: The Company will be under no duty to perform its obligations under this Agreement until such time as Client has paid the Service Fee in full. In the event the Client fails to remit payment as specified, the Company shall have the right to immediately terminate this Agreement with no further obligation, retain any monies already paid, and provide no services. Returned checks will be assessed a $30 non- sufficient funds fee and Company will not perform any obligations until payment is made with sufficient funds.

PRICING: Services or merchandise not included in this Agreement will be sold at the current price when the order is placed. All prices are subject to change at any time without notice. If at any point the Company issues credit vouchers or other similar instruments representing credit that the Company will provide to a Client, those instruments shall have no intrinsic cash value, shall be non-transferable, and may only be applied toward specified products or services from the Company.

LIQUIDATED DAMAGES: Following receipt of the Service Fee, the Company agrees to build a Studio for the client. If the Client cancels the Studio or fails to pay the remaining portion of the Service Fee when due, the Company may have expended time and resources for the Client’s Studio that could have been put towards other products or services. As a result, the Client and Company agree that (1) it will be difficult to estimate the total amount of damages to the Company in the event that the Client breaches this Agreement, including but not limited to a failure by the Client to pay the Service Fee, and (2) that the amount of the Service Fee is the best estimate of the damages to the Company if the Client were to breach this Agreement. As a result, the Company shall be entitled to liquidated damages in the amount of the Service Fee (and entitled to keep the non-refundable Deposit) in event of a breach of this Agreement by the Client. Company is not obligated to seek Liquidated Damages and does not waive its right to pursue any other damages.
