2. Assumption of Risks. The Participant understands, acknowledges and accepts that this Release and Waiver is

intended to be binding on the Participant and the Related Parties. The Participant further understands, acknowledges and accepts

that participation in the OTB Events involves certain inherent risks and dangers that may result in accidents, property loss or

inactions of others, the rules of play, and the condition of the facilities and equipment. Further, there may be other risks not

known to Participant and not reasonably foreseeable at this time. Participant is voluntarily participating in the OTB Events,

involved and accepts all risks of participation. The Participant acknowledges participation does not constitute a condition or

requirement of employment. The Participant declares that the Participant is physically fit and has the requisite skill level to

Soccer to provide medical treatment to the Participant, should the need arise. The Participant further agrees to pay all costs

associated with such medical treatment and to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Released Persons from any costs or

claims arising from such medical treatment. The Participant understands, acknowledges and accepts that he or she must provide

his or her own medical insurance for the Participant. Any desired life, accident, travel, property or other insurance relating to

for the Participant’s benefit.

​

3. License. The Participant hereby grants to the Released Persons permission to film, photograph, video record and

otherwise record the Participant’s image, voice, or any other aspect of the performance at the OTB Events and the right (but not

the world in perpetuity for any promotional, trade, publicity, or advertising purposes related to the OTB Events or similar

promotions conducted by Released Persons without further compensation or permission, except as prohibited or restricted by law.

The Participant hereby releases the Released Persons from any and all liabilities arising out of distortion, optical illusions, or

faulty mechanical reproductions of the Participant’s likeness. The Participant understands and agrees that all photographic plates,

negatives, and recordings containing the Rights are and shall be the property of Released Persons, and the Participant has no right

to inspect or approve any materials containing the Rights. The Participant represents that it is not necessary for Released Persons

to obtain permission from or to pay any third party in connection with the Rights. The Participant agrees that Released Persons

may contact the Participant for marketing purposes and send the Participant information regarding their products.

 

4. Indemnity Including Express Indemnity for Negligence of Released Parties. Participant agrees to defend,

indemnify and hold the Released Parties harmless from all “Claims,” actions, damages, judgments, or liabilities that may be

asserted against the Released Parties by, through or under Participant or his or her heirs and arising out of or relating to

Participant’s participation in the OTB Events. These indemnity obligations apply whether the matter is for personal injuries or

death, damage to property, economic loss, or some other requested relief, and even to the extent that any such damage or injury

may be caused, proximately or remotely, in whole or in part, by an act or omission of the Released Parties. THIS INDEMNITY

PARTIES. FURTHERMORE, THIS INDEMNITY OBLIGATION INCLUDES “CLAIMS” OR ALLEGATIONS
