Future Claims: I forever release the Organizers from any and all claims, demands, actions, damages (including direct, indirect, special, and/or consequential), losses, judgments, and costs (including legal fees) that may arise out of, result from, or relate to my participation in the Event, even if such claims are caused by the Organizers in any manner, including negligence, gross negligence, negligent rescue, omissions, carelessness, breach of contract, and/or breach of statutory duty of care.

 

Indemnification of the Organization: If, despite this release and waiver of liability, assumption of risk, and indemnity agreement, I or anyone on my behalf makes a claim against the Organization or any third party seeking indemnification from the Organization, I agree to indemnify, save, and hold harmless the Organization from any litigation expenses, legal fees, loss, liability, damage, or costs that may be incurred as a result of such claim, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
