The Marshall University Foundation, Inc.

RELEASE OF LIABILITY

The individual named above (referred to as “I” or “me”) desires to participate in the excursion to Heritage Farm (the “Activity”) sponsored by the Marshall University Foundation (the “Company”). In consideration of being permitted by the Company to participate in the Activity and in recognition of the Company’s reliance hereon, I agree to all the terms and conditions set forth in this instrument (this “Release”).

I desire to participate in the Activity, including, without limitation, all activities available during the excursion in which I voluntarily choose to participate, enter any area where the Activity takes place, or to observe or otherwise participate in or in any other way be involved for any purpose with the Activity. In consideration of being permitted to participate in the Activity and in recognition of the Sponsor’s reliance hereon, I hereby agree to all the terms of this Release.

My choice to participate in the Activity is knowing, voluntary, and made for my personal enjoyment. I understand that I am not required to participate in any part of the Activity, and that if I do choose to participate, I assume any risk involved in doing so, and represent that my health or physical condition does not pose any risk to me that would make it inadvisable for me to participate. I understand that participation in the Activity involves inherent risks and dangers of accidents, rescue operations, emergency treatment, property loss or damage, serious personal and bodily injury, death, and severe personal and economic losses. These may result not only from my own actions, inactions, or negligence, but also from the actions, inactions, or negligence of others, or the condition of the facilities or equipment. Further, there may be other risks not known to me or reasonably foreseeable at this time. I understand and I have considered the risks involved, and I voluntarily and freely choose to assume these risks.

I hereby expressly waive and release any and all claims, now known or hereafter known, against the Company, and its officers, directors, manager(s), employees, agents, affiliates, successors, and assigns (collectively, “Releasees”), on account of injury, disability, death, or property damage arising out of or attributable to my participation in the Activity, whether arising out of the ordinary negligence of the Company or any Releasees or otherwise. I covenant not to make or bring any such claim against the Company or any other Releasee, and forever release and discharge the Company and all other Releasees from liability under such claims.

I shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Company and all other Releasees against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, claims, actions, judgments, settlements, interest, awards, penalties, fines, costs, or expenses of whatever kind, including attorney fees, fees, the costs of enforcing any right to indemnification under this Release, and the cost of pursuing any insurance providers, arising out or resulting from any claim of a third party related to my participation in the Activity.

This Release constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the Company and me with respect to the subject matter contained herein and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. If any term or provision of this Release is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Release or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. This Release is binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the Company and me and their respective successors and assigns. All matters arising out of or relating to this Release shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of West Virginia without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule.
