2.BILLING POLICIES AND PAYMENTS FOR SERVICES

A.You agree to pay all amounts billed for Services and to pay all taxes, fees and other charges, if any, which are now or may in the future be assessed on the Services you receive from us. Unless you prepay for a multi-month subscription to Services, we will bill you each month, in advance, for Services ordered by you or anyone who uses your DISH Network Equipment, whether with or without your permission, until you cancel the Services. The bills you receive will show the total amount due, the payment due date, payments, credits, purchases and other charges to your account.

B.You agree to pay us in full monthly by the payment due date for the Services and for any other charges due us, including any fees set forth in this Section 2. Payment of your bill after the due date will result in you paying us a Late Payment Fee. Other fees and charges may also be assessed. If partial payments are made, they will be applied first to the oldest outstanding bill. If you send checks or money orders marked "payment in full," we can accept them without losing any of our rights to collect any other amounts owed by you, notwithstanding your characterization of the payment. DISH Network does not extend credit to our customers, and the Late Payment Fee is not interest, a credit service charge or a finance charge. You understand and agree that in the case of late payment or nonpayment for any Services ordered by you or for any of the charges stated below, we may report such late payment or nonpayment to credit reporting agencies. If you do not pay your bill by the due date, we have the right to disconnect your Services at any time thereafter, in our sole discretion. DISH Network may require you to pay all past due charges, a Reconnect Fee, a deposit equal to a minimum of one month's advance charges and all outstanding balances accrued through the date of deactivation, before we reconnect your Services. Deposits will not be held segregated from other funds and shall not earn or accrue interest.

C.If you at any time fail, neglect, or refuse to make timely payments hereunder, or if a petition in bankruptcy shall be filed on your behalf or against you, or if you take advantage of any insolvency law or become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or if a receiver, liquidator, or trustee is appointed for your property or affairs, we shall be wholly relieved from our obligations hereunder.

D.If you paid for an annual or other multi-month subscription to any Services and your account is past due for any amounts owed to us, at our option we may suspend any or all Service until payment is received, and/or convert your annual or other multi-month subscription to a monthly subscription. If we convert your multi-month subscription to a monthly subscription, we will first apply the amount you paid for your multi-month subscription to any past due amounts and then any remaining amounts to future obligations. If we elect to offset the amount paid for the remaining portion of a multi-month subscription against amounts past due, you agree to pay, in
