WAIVER of Liability Relating to Coronavirus / COVID 19

The novel coronavirus, COVID-19, has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 is reported to be extremely contagious. The state of medical knowledge is evolving, but the virus is believed to spread from person-to-person contact, through the air, and/or by contact with contaminated surfaces and objects. People reportedly can be infected and show no symptoms and therefore spread the disease. Evidence has shown that COVID-19 can cause serious and potentially life threatening illness and even death.

Pangaea Exploration LLC cannot prevent you from becoming exposed to, contracting, or spreading COVID-19 while using Pangaea Exploration’s services or vessels. It is not possible to prevent against the presence of the disease. Therefore, if you choose to use Pangaea Exploration’s services and/or board Pangaea’s vessels you may be exposing yourself to and/or increasing your risk of contracting or spreading COVID-19.

 

COVID-19 Risk Reduction Protocol:

I agree to take a PCR or rapid antigen covid test, performed by a medical professional, at my own expense, no more than 72 hours before boarding the vessel. I acknowledge that I will not be allowed to board the vessel if I test positive on this pre-trip COVID test. In the event that I am not allowed to board the vessel, I understand that Pangaea Exploration will not refund me any money, but will at Pangaea Exploration's discretion offer to transfer that money to another voyage.

I understand that the government of any country on the itinerary may impose its own COVID-19 requirements for entry, and I agree to comply with those requirements. I acknowledge that if I cannot comply with the requirements of any country on the itinerary of this voyage, I will not be allowed to board the vessel. In the event that I am not allowed to board the vessel due to not meeting government requirements, I understand that Pangaea Expl will not refund me any money, but will at Pangaea Exploration's 

 

Agreement to COVID-19 Protocol: I agree to follow the COVID-19 Risk Reduction Protocol above, and acknowledge that it may change due to local and national regulations or the state of the COVID-19 pandemic. I acknowledge that Pangaea will notify me by email in a timely fashion of any changes to this protocol. 


 

ASSUMPTION OF RISK: I have read and understood the above warning concerning COVID- 19. I hereby choose to accept the risk of contracting COVID-19 in order to use Pangaea Exploration’s services and board Pangaea Explorations’s vessels. These services are of such value to me that I accept the risk of being exposed to, contracting, and/or spreading COVID-19 in order to use PangaeaExploration’s services and board Pangaea Exploration’s vessel.

WAIVER OF LAWSUIT/LIABILITY: I hereby forever release and waive my right to bring suit against Pangaea Exploration LLC and/or any of its owners, officers, directors, managers, officials, agents, employees, or other representatives in connection with or as a result of exposure, infection, and/or spread of COVID-19 related to using Pangaea Exploration’s services and vessels. I understand that this waiver means I give up my right to bring any claims (including for personal injury, death, disease or property losses, or any other loss), including but not limited to claims of negligence, and give up any right I may have to seek to recover damages as a result thereof, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen.

I understand and agree that the law of the State of Florida will apply to this document, and both parties consent to the jurisdiction of courts, both state or federal, in Florida, with respect to any dispute under this document.

I HAVE CAREFULLY READ AND FULLY UNDERSTAND ALL PROVISIONS OF THIS WAIVER. I FREELY AND KNOWINGLY ASSUME THE RISKS DESCRIBED HEREIN AND WAIVE MY RIGHT TO ASSERT CERTAIN CLAIMS OR SEEK TO RECOVER DAMAGES AS DESCRIBED ABOVE:
