1. Each person participating in the Activity (defined below) is called “Participant.” I, the undersigned, am a Participant; if a Participant is a minor/infant, I am the Participant’s parent or legal guardian.

2. I understand the dangers and risks of the Activity and that Participant ASSUMES ALL INHERENT DANGERS AND RISKS of the Activity.

4. Participant assumes responsibility for maintaining control at all possible times while engaging in the Activity and for reading, understanding, and complying with all signage, including instructions on the use of all equipment, including all watercraft. Participant must have the physical dexterity and knowledge to use the equipment safely. I understand that a minor Participant may use the equipment without an adult present. I understand that falls, collisions, and injuries are common while being towed behind a watercraft at any speed.

5. If Participant rents equipment, I agree to accept the equipment rented “AS IS,” accept responsibility for the care of the equipment during the rental period, and agree to be responsible for the replacement at full value of any equipment not returned or returned in a damaged condition. I agree to assume and accept all known and unknown risks of injury to Participant while using this equipment.

6. In consideration for allowing Participant to participate in the Activity, I AGREE, to the greatest extent permitted by law, TO WAIVE ANY AND ALL CLAIMS AGAINST AND TO HOLD HARMLESS, RELEASE, INDEMNIFY, AND AGREE NOT TO SUE Bear Hollow Resort, LLC, Bear Hollow Ranch, LLC, Bear Hollow Sports, LLC, Bear Hollow Lakes Homeowners Association, Inc., Liquid Assets H20, LLC, Kokopelli Investments, LLC, (collectively, “Bear Hollow"), each of their affiliated companies and subsidiaries, the resort owner/operator, land owner, activity operator, the equipment manufacturer, and all their respective insurance companies, successors in interest, commercial & corporate sponsors, affiliates, agents, employees, volunteers, representatives, assignees, officers, directors, and shareholders (each a “Released Party”) FOR ANY INJURY, INCLUDING DEATH, LOSS, PROPERTY DAMAGE OR EXPENSE, WHICH I OR PARTICIPANT MAY SUFFER, ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART OUT OF PARTICIPANT’S PARTICIPATION IN THE ACTIVITY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THOSE CLAIMS BASED ON ANY RELEASED PARTY’S ALLEGED OR ACTUAL NEGLIGENCE OR BREACH OF ANY CONTRACT AND/OR EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OR BREACH OF ANY STATUTORY OR OTHER DUTY OF CARE. I UNDERSTAND THAT NEGLIGENCE INCLUDES FAILURE ON THE PART OF ANY RELEASED PARTY TO TAKE REASONABLE STEPS TO SAFEGUARD OR PROTECT AGAINST THE RISKS, DANGERS, AND HAZARDS OF THE ACTIVITY. In further consideration for allowing Participant to participate in the Activity, I FURTHER RELEASE AND GIVE UP ANY AND ALL CLAIMS AND RIGHTS THAT I MAY NOW HAVE AGAINST ANY RELEASED PARTY AND UNDERSTAND THIS RELEASES ALL CLAIMS, INCLUDING THOSE OF WHICH I AM NOT AWARE, THOSE NOT MENTIONED IN THIS RELEASE AND THOSE RESULTING FROM ANYTHING WHICH HAS HAPPENED UP TO NOW.

7. I ALSO AGREE TO PAY ALL COSTS, INCLUDING ATTORNEYS’ FEES, INCURRED BY ANY RELEASED PARTY IN DEFENDING AN INVESTIGATION, CLAIM, OR LAWSUIT BROUGHT BY OR ON PARTICIPANT’S BEHALF, WHETHER ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART FROM PARTICIPANT’S PARTICIPATION IN ANY ACTIVITY OR FROM ANY MISREPRESENTATIONS OR FRAUDULENT EXECUTION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

8. I represent that Participant is in good health and that there are no particular problems associated with Participant’s physical or mental condition.

9. I agree that I will follow all instructions of any onsite property manager or other representative or agent of Bear Hollow while on the Property. I agree to comply with all provisions of the Rental Rules attached hereto as Exhibit A.

10. The Parties, including the Released Parties, shall use the procedure outlined in this Section 10 to resolve any dispute, contest, or claim among any one or more of them as it relates to this Agreement, the use of the premises by the Rental Party, or any claim of personal injury or other damage (all of which are referred to hereinafter as a “Dispute”).

A Dispute may be submitted to binding arbitration upon the election of Bear Hollow. Such Dispute shall be settled by arbitration according to the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Any judgment rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator may conclude arbitration proceedings without a decision if the arbitrator determines that insufficient evidence was produced through the arbitration process to support a decision. The selection of the arbitrator(s) shall be subject to the approval of both Bear Hollow and the Rental Party.

As to any Dispute in which Bear Hollow does not elect arbitration, the Parties hereby consent to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Utah, County of Box Elder.

The provisions of this Paragraph are intended to supersede any rules governing mediation or arbitration under the law of Utah or any other jurisdiction.

11. I agree that all claims for loss, injury, or death arising from Participant’s participation in the Activity shall be governed by the law of the State of Utah and that exclusive jurisdiction of any such claim shall be in a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Utah.

12. BY SIGNING ON BEHALF OF A MINOR/INFANT OR OTHER PARTICIPANT, I REPRESENT THAT I AM AUTHORIZED TO SIGN ON PARTICIPANT’S BEHALF and I AM THE PARENT OR LEGAL GUARDIAN OF THE MINOR/INFANT PARTICIPANT and acknowledge that all the terms of this Agreement bind Participant.

By signing this Agreement without a parent or legal guardian’s signature, I represent, under penalty of fraud, that I am at least 18 years old. I understand that a minor/infant Participant may use the equipment and facilities with a parent or legal guardian present.

13. I understand that this Agreement will apply for each day Participant participates in any Activity for 12 months following the Participant’s signature of this agreement. I understand that this Agreement is a contract and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall be binding on me and my assignees, subrogors, distributors, heirs, next of kin, executors, and personal representatives. If any part of this Agreement is deemed unenforceable, the remaining terms shall be an enforceable contract between the parties.
