Initial Payment Authorization:
I authorize
National Motor Club to debit entries to my (our) credit card or bank account with
the depository named for the purpose of honoring charges initiated by National Motor
Club. This authorization will remain in effect until the company has received notification
from me that it is to be terminated in such a time and manner for the company to
act on it. I have the right to stop payment of a debit entry by notification to
Depository at such time as to afford Depository a reasonable opportunity to act
on it prior to charging account. After account has been charged, I have the right
to have the amount of an erroneous debit credited to my account by Depository, provided
I send written notice of such debit entry in error to Depository within 15 days
following issuance of the account statement or 45 days after posting, whichever
comes first.
Recurring Payment Authorization:
If recurring
payment option selected, I understand that the first debit entry will start one
month after Effective Date and the approximate day of the month for ongoing debit
entries is based upon effective date. Effective dates of the 29th, 30th, or 31st
will result in debit entries on or around the 28th. If dues are paid annually, the
renewal date will be 365 days from the effective date of the membership. I acknowledge
that if the appropriate funds are not available at the time of the debit entry,
that NMC has the right to cancel my membership effective that day or attempt to
draft the dues again within 31 days and may charge up to a $25 service fee to my
account. I further acknowledge that any overdraft charges due to a lack of funds
or any other fee that is applied to my account are not the responsibility of NMC.

the arbitrator shall make and provide to the parties written findings of fact and
conclusions of law. This agreement to arbitrate shall survive any termination or
expiration of the Membership.
Nothing in this provision shall prevent
NMC from terminating a Membership or from applying to and obtaining from any court
having jurisdiction injunctive or emergency relief prior to the filing of or during
or following any arbitration proceeding or pending the handing down of a decision
or award in connection with any arbitration or other proceeding. The adoption and/or
