" Expiration of Preferred Points: Preferred Points are valid for sixty (60) months from the date of check in/return of the rental upon which they were earned. In the event that the Avis Preferred Member fails to exercise any redemption of earned awards within such sixty (60) month period, the rewards are deemed forfeited and surrendered back to Avis and shall have no value to the Avis Preferred member and will be removed from any of the Member's accounts.

Cancellation for Inactivity: An Avis member will be considered inactive and Preferred Points will be forfeited and surrendered back to Avis if, during the preceding twelve (12) months, the member has (a) not completed a paid rental or (b) the member's account has been otherwise cancelled.

Avis Points earned or otherwise obtained by an Avis Member will be forfeited without notice if the Avis Member becomes Inactive. An Avis Member is considered "Inactive" if during a 12- month period: (a) the Avis Member has not completed an eligible rental at an Avis Participating Location; (b) the Avis Member has not earned or redeemed any Avis Points, or (c) the Avis Member's account has been cancelled.
