I, the undersigned, understand and agree that a third-party services provider specified below (the “Provider”) may be engaged by me to provide certain childcare services (the “Services”) at the event specified below (the “Event”). In consideration of being permitted to receive such Services, I, as the parent and/or legal guardian of the minor(s) indicated below (individually and collectively, “Minor”), on my behalf and on behalf of Minor, as well as on behalf of Minor’s other parent(s) and legal guardian(s) and/or my or Minor’s heirs, next of kin, assigns, and personal representatives (me, Minor, and such other parties, collectively, “Releasing Parties”), do hereby acknowledge, understand and agree as follows:
1. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND ASSUMPTION: I, on behalf of the Releasing Parties, understand and agree that IEEE has provided information regarding the Services solely for my convenience. The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Incorporated (“IEEE”) disclaims any warranties of any kind, express or implied, regarding the Services including warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. IEEE has no involvement with or control over actual delivery of the Services, and IEEE accepts no responsibility for the Services or for any Damages (as defined in Section 3 hereof) that may arise from my use of the Services. If I decide to use Services, I do so ENTIRELY AT MY OWN RISK and subject to the Provider’s terms and conditions of use of such Services. The use of the Services may involve risks, inherent and otherwise, known or unknown, that cannot be eliminated, including but not limited to injury, illness, death or other harm to Minor and other persons, and/or loss, theft or damage to property (collectively, the “Risks”). As between IEEE and me, I assume full and sole responsibility for all Risks with full knowledge and acceptance of such Risks.
2. NO RELIANCE: I have, independently and without reliance upon IEEE and/or its Released Parties (as defined Section 3 hereof) and based on such information as I have deemed appropriate in my sole discretion, made my own decision to use the Services. I understand and agree that IEEE’s engagement with the Provider and/or communications regarding the Provider or the Services does not in any way constitute an endorsement or recommendation by IEEE of the Services and/or the Provider.
3. RELEASE: With full understanding of the Risks, I, on behalf of the Releasing Parties, hereby RELEASE AND DISCHARGE IEEE, its subsidiaries, affiliates and other related entities, and their respective officers, employees, volunteers, members, directors, owners, agents and representatives (collectively, the "Released Parties"), from and against any and all actual or prospective claims, damages, liabilities, losses, actions, lawsuits, proceedings, expenses, costs, and attorney fees (collectively, the “Damages”), including, without limitation, Damages related to injury, death or other harm, which are incurred by any Releasing Parties or for which any Released Parties may be liable, arising from or in connection with the Services and/or the Provider’s acts or omissions, whether caused or alleged to be caused, in whole or in part, by the negligence of the Released Parties or otherwise.
4. INDEMNITY: To the fullest extent allowed by law, I, on behalf of the Releasing Parties, hereby agree to INDEMNIFY, HOLD HARMLESS, AND DEFEND the Released Parties from and against any and all Damages incurred by the Released Parties arising from, or relating to, the Services and/or any act or omission of the Provider, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory.
For the avoidance of doubt, if, despite this Liability Release (the “Release”), Minor or any other Releasing Party makes a claim against any of the Released Parties arising from, or relating to, the Services and/or any act or omission of the Provider, I hereby agree to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend the Released Parties from and against any Damages incurred due to such claim.
5. GOVERNING LAW/JURISDICTION/WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL/VALIDITY: This Release shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York (without regard to principles of conflict of laws that could cause the application of the law of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York). Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Release shall have the exclusive jurisdiction in a state court located in the borough of Manhattan, in New York, New York or in a federal court sitting in the borough of Manhattan, in in New York, New York. I hereby knowingly and voluntarily waive any right on behalf of all Releasing Parties to a jury trial of any dispute arising from or in connection with this Release.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Release shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Release, which shall remain in full force and effect.
6. REPRESENTATIONS: I, the undersigned, represent that: (i) I am at least eighteen (18) years old and the parent and/or legal guardian of Minor; (ii) I have the authority to enter into this Release on behalf of the Releasing Parties; (iii) I have been given an opportunity to ask questions about the contents of this Release and/or to seek the advice of an attorney; (iv) I understand and agree that this Release is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by applicable law; and (v) I understand and agree that no oral or written representations can or will alter the contents of this Release.
