  • All pronouns shall be construed to include the masculine, feminine or neuter as well as the plural or singular, as may be appropriate to facilitate the construction of this Agreement in the light of the facts presented.

  • I hereby acknowledge that I have full and complete notice and understanding of the Act and of all the risks inherent in equine activities that may cause, contribute to, or result in the death or personal injury of participants or damage to a participant's property (the "Risks"), and I have not relied upon the Sponsors & Other Related Parties for any advice or explanation therewith.

  • These Risks include, but are not limited to:
  • (i)the propensity of an equine to behave in dangerous ways that may result in injury, harm, or death to persons on or around them; (ii) the unpredictability of an equine's reaction to such things as sounds, sudden movement, and unfamiliar objects, persons, or other animals; (iii) certain hazards such as surface and subsurface conditions; (iv) collisions with other animals or objects; and (v) the potential of a participant acting in a negligent manner that may contribute to injury to the participant or others, such as failing to maintain control over the equine or not acting within the participant's ability. I hereby release and waive all rights which I may now or hereafter have against the Sponsors & Other Related Parties, for death, personal injury or property damage which is in any way associated with the risks; I do hereby waive my right to sue or to bring any action against the Sponsors & Other Related Parties, or any land owner in connection therewith; I agree to indemnify and defend the Sponsors & Other Related Parties, and each land owner from, and to hold each of them harmless against any such suit or action; including reimbursement of legal fees associated with the defense of any claim, and I hereby expressly assume all risks and dangers of death, personal injury and property damage that are in any way associated with the risks of my participating in or venturing too close to other participants. I acknowledge the right of any court to dismiss any case I may bring against the Sponsors & Other Related Parties, with prejudice, without trial, based upon receipt of a copy of this executed Agreement. To the extent possible, this Agreement shall be construed in such manner as will render it, and each provision of it, fully enforceable; but if any provision of this Agreement shall be unenforceable, such provision(or so much thereof as is unenforceable) shall be deleted and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. If this Agreement is executed by the undersigned for and on behalf of a minor participant named below, the undersigned hereby warrants and represents that he or she is in fact the parent or legal guardian of such minor, with full rights of custody and control; that this Agreement is given on behalf of and is intended to be binding upon said minor participant, its heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns.
