ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00);
IN EACH CASE TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, REGARDLESS OF THE NATURE OF THE CLAIM.
IN NO EVENT SHALL DWELL COWORKING LLC OR ITS SUBSIDIARIES, OFFICERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, AFFILIATES, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOST PROFITS OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION), HOWEVER ARISING, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
12. Address Format

13. Courier Deliveries; Identification
Delivery by commercial courier services must be made to Dwell Coworking LLC’s street address (not a U.S. Post Office P.O. Box). "P.O. Box" may be used only if it is part of the Customer's caller service address format as arranged through Dwell Coworking LLC.
Upon signing this Agreement, Customer shall provide two forms of valid identification, one of which includes a photograph.
This Agreement may not be amended or modified except in a writing signed by both parties (which may include electronic acceptance methods where permitted by the Company).

Dwell Coworking LLC reserves the right to open and inspect any packages or mail which may arrive damaged or that may reasonably appear to present a risk to property, safety, or legal compliance.
15. Waiver of Certain Claims (Subject to Applicable Law)
By agreeing below, Customer acknowledges that Customer’s rights to bring certain types of claims may be limited by the limitation-of-liability, indemnification, waiver-of-claims, and dispute-resolution provisions of this Agreement and the Dwell Policies. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Customer agrees to pursue any disputes only as permitted by those provisions and not in any manner inconsistent with them.
Customer agrees to make every effort to comply with U.S. law and the laws of Texas, and to request clarification from Dwell Coworking LLC when needed.
16. Additional Indemnity
The Customer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, agents, and employees from any and all claims, demands, losses, causes of action, damages, lawsuits, judgments, including attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of or relating to the Dwell Coworking LLC services under this Agreement, except as limited by Section 10 above and any mandatory legal protections.
17. Entire Agreement (Mailbox Services)
This Agreement, together with any accompanying appendices, duplicates, or copies, constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the Mailbox and virtual office services and supersedes all prior negotiations, agreements, representations, and understandings of any kind, whether written or oral, between the Parties regarding those services.
For the avoidance of doubt, Customer’s use of other Dwell Coworking services (including coworking, private offices, meeting rooms, and events) remains subject to the Membership Agreement and other Dwell Policies, which together with this Agreement form the complete contractual framework between Customer and Dwell Coworking LLC.
18. Amendments and Updates
18.1 Dwell Coworking LLC may amend or update this Agreement and the Dwell Policies from time to time. Unless a different effective date is stated, amendments become effective when the updated version is posted on the Dwell Coworking website or otherwise made reasonably available to Customer.
18.2 For changes that materially affect Customer’s rights or obligations, Dwell Coworking LLC will provide notice by reasonable means (for example, by email, posting in the member portal, or other service-related communication), where practicable.
18.3 If Customer does not agree to an amendment, Customer may terminate this Agreement by providing notice to Dwell Coworking LLC and paying any amounts then due. Customer’s continued use of the mailbox or related services after an amendment becomes effective constitutes acceptance of the amended terms.
19. Severability
If any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held unenforceable for any reason, then such provision shall be modified to reflect the parties' intention to the maximum extent permitted by law. All remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect for the duration of this Agreement.
20. Assignment
This Agreement shall not be assigned by Customer without the express written consent of Dwell Coworking LLC. Dwell Coworking LLC may assign this Agreement without Customer’s consent, including to affiliates or successors, as permitted under the Membership Agreement.
21. No Waiver
A failure or delay in exercising any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement will not operate as a waiver thereof, and a single or partial exercise of any right, power, or privilege will not preclude any subsequent or further exercise of that or any other right, power, or privilege.
22. Governing Law
This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the U.S. State of Texas without reference to any principles of conflicts of laws that would cause the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.
23. CISG and International Law
The laws of Texas shall supersede the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) and any other international sales law in connection with this Agreement.
24. Venue
