INTERPRETATION: This Release is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by law, and that if any provision of this Release is held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable, the enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be impaired thereby, and such invalid part, term or provision shall not be deemed part of this Release unless the same shall have been reformed by such court to reflect the original intent as nearly as possible in accordance with applicable law. Any ambiguities in this Release shall not be construed in favor or against any party by virtue of that party having drafted the Release. By signing below, I represent and warrant to the Released Parties that: (a) I have fully and completely read, understand, consent to and agree with all of the provisions of this Release; (b) I am 18 years of age or older; (c) all personal information furnished by me on this form is true, accurate and complete.
