9. In the second column add desired spacing with space bar.
10. Highlight the third, fourth, and fifth columns in the first row and click Merge Table Cells button.
11. In the Merged Table Cells, type in Payment Plan and style this the same as Member Name.

14. Below Payment Plan, type in Monthly. Highlight text and make it Bold, Arial, font size 12. Add space in the column between Monthly and Yearly (this space should be less that of the second and sixth columns). Repeat steps to style Yearly.
15. Now, you can fill out the information as desired below.
16. To Split the Merged Cells, highlight the cells that have been merged and click the Split Merged Cells. You can highlight the Member Name cell that had been previously merged and click the Split Merged Cells button to split them.
