In consideration, and as a condition precedent to, the use of the above property (the “Property”), the undersigned hereby irrevocably agrees as follows:

ASSUMPTION OF RISKS. I understand and acknowledge that:

·      the World Health Organization has classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic;

·       COVID-19 is a highly contagious and dangerous disease, and that contact with the virus that causes COVID-19 may result in significant personal injury or death;

·      my use of the Property (including any related travel) carries with it certain inherent risks related to COVID-19 transmission (individually and collectively, “Inherent Risks”) that cannot be eliminated regardless of the care taken to avoid such Inherent Risks (including coming into close contact with individuals or objects that may be carrying COVID-19; the risk of transmitting or contracting COVID-19, directly or indirectly, to or from other individuals; and related injuries and complications ranging in severity from minor to catastrophic and even death) and that the full extent of such Inherent Risks are not fully known;

·      as a result of certain state and local COVID-19 regulations from time to time in effect, my use of the Property (in whole or in part) may be or become prohibited or otherwise materially restricted (individually and collectively, “Use Risks”);

·      while the owner (the “Owner”) of the Property and [MANAGER] (the “Manager”) have undertaken reasonable steps to lessen the risk of transmission of COVID-19 in connection with the use of the Property, neither the Owner nor the Manager nor any of their respective current or future employees, agents or representatives (all of the foregoing, individually and collectively, the “Released Parties”) are, or will be, responsible in any manner for any risks related to COVID-19 in connection with the use of the Property; and

·      I (for myself and any minor child(ren) who will be at the Property and for which I am a legal guardian or will otherwise be in care of) hereby voluntarily accept and assume all risk of loss, personal injury, sickness, death, damage, and expense, of any nature whatsoever (including those with respect to the Inherent Risks and the Use Risks), arising from (or otherwise in connection with) my use of the Property.

RELEASE AND WAIVER; INDEMNIFICATION. I (for myself and any minor child(ren) who will be at the Property and for which I am a legal guardian or will otherwise be in care of) do hereby irrevocably and forever release, waive, and discharge, and hereby agree to indemnify and immediately reimburse, the Owner, the Manager and each of the other Released Parties (as applicable) from/for (as applicable) any and all claims, damages, demands, actions, judgments, fines, liabilities and/or other losses, of any nature whatsoever (including those with respect to Inherent Risks, Use Risks, any other COVID-19 related matter, personal injury, sickness or death, and/or property damage or expenses; and in any case together with all related attorneys’ fees), which may, directly or indirectly and whether now or in the future, be incurred by (or otherwise imposed on) any of the Released Parties by reason of (or otherwise in connection with) the use of the Property by me and/or any of my guests/invitees. Further, I acknowledge that the foregoing release and indemnification (and this agreement as a whole) shall be binding on my (and, with respect to any applicable child, each of their) heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns.  

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. I (for myself and any minor child(ren) who will be at the Property and for which I am a legal guardian or will otherwise be in care of) hereby certify as follows:

·      neither I, nor any member of my household, have been diagnosed with COVID-19 or (to the best of my knowledge) been exposed to someone with a suspected and/or confirmed case of COVID-19;

·      within the 14-day period immediately prior to my use of the Property, neither I, nor any member of my household, have:

o  traveled internationally;

·      I, and every member of household, are following (and will continue to follow) all CDC recommended “social distancing” and other guidelines (as much as possible) with respect to COVID-19;
