                                 CODE OF VIRGINIA

AUTOMATIC TERMINATION OF A HEALTH CLUB CONTRACT (§ 59.1-297.2)

A health club contract shall be considered terminated automatically if the
designated facility closes permanently and the health club does not provide a
comparable alternate facility. A facility closes temporarily if it closes for a
reasonable period of time (i) for renovations to all or a portion of the
facility, (ii) because the lease for the facility has been canceled, or (iii)
because of a fire, or a flood or other act of God, or other cause not within the
reasonable control of the health club. If a facility closes temporarily, it
shall within 14 days from the time of the temporary closing provide notice of
the date it expects to reopen, which date shall be within a reasonable period of
time from the time the facility temporarily closes, to the Commissioner and
shall conspicuously post such notice both within and outside each entrance to
the facility.
