If Client has retained the Services for one (1) year and has pre-paid Brady Consulting for such Services, Client will not be refunded for the remainder of the pre-paid term unless the refund request is made in the first 30 days of the one (1) year term. If requested in the first 30 days, Client will be entitled to a refund for the months remaining in the term period. All refund requests must be made in writing and sent to Brady Consulting as stipulated in Section 8 of this agreement. Brady Consulting will not refund any Client after the initial 30 day period.
