(1) the Setup Charge (as defined in the Space License Agreement),

(2) (i) the Fee for the first full calendar month of the booking (if you start your booking on the first calendar day of the month), or (ii) a pro-rated portion of the Fee for the first partial month of the booking (if you start your booking after the first calendar day of the month), and
