"MEMBERS' RIGHT TO CANCEL"
"IF YOU WISH TO CANCEL THIS CONTRACT, YOU MAY CANCEL BY DELIVERING OR MAILING A WRITTEN NOTICE TO THE COMPANY.

IF THE NOTICE IS DELIVERED OR MAILED BEFORE MIDNIGHT OF THE THIRD BUSINESS DAY AFTER YOU SIGN THIS CONTRACT, YOU ARE ENTITLED TO A REFUND OF THE ENTIRE CONSIDERATION PAID FOR THE CONTRACT.
