Liability Waiver


Individual Liability

1. Identification of Parties. This Facility Use Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into by and between PACIFIC UNION COLLEGE, a California nonprofit religious corporation (“Licensor”) and the entity or individual(s) executing this Agreement as licensee (“Licensee”).

 

2. Use of Facility. Licensor is the owner of that certain facility (“the Facility”) in Mendocino County, California commonly known as “the Albion Field Station.” For the consideration specified in Schedule “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein (“the Schedule”), the registered guests of Licensee (collectively “Licensee Parties” or individually, a “Licensee Party”) may only use those portions of the Facility and only during those times specified in the Schedule. Each Licensed Party shall register with Licensor at the Facility office before he or she uses the Facility.

 

3. Non-Exclusive Use. Unless otherwise specified in the Schedule, Licensee’s use of the Facility is on a non-exclusive basis (i.e., certain portions of the Facility may also be used by other parties concurrently with Licensee’s use) except for those lodging units and other portions (if any) of the Facility exclusively reserved by Licensee as specified in the Schedule.

 

4. Use Fees. Licensee agrees to pay all fees specified in the Schedule. Licensee authorizes Licensor to charge against the credit card (“the Credit Card”) specified in the Schedule the deposit amount (“the Deposit”) shown on the Schedule. This amount shall be no less than the charge for one night lodging plus a fee for the exclusive reservation of other portions of the Facility (if any). Licensee also authorizes Licensor to charge the Credit Card: (a) the balance of the fees due under this Agreement not otherwise paid on or before the check-out date specified on the Schedule; (b) any damages caused by the use of the Facility by the Licensee Parties; and (c) any other charges or fines imposed on Licensee Parties pursuant to this License.  

 

5. Cancellation. Licensee shall be entitled to a full return of the Deposit provided that Licensee notifies Licensor in writing of Licensee’s cancellation of this License (“Cancellation Notice") no less than two (2) months prior to the Occupancy Date specified in the Schedule. Licensee shall not be entitled to a refund of the Deposit if Licensor receives Licensee’s Cancellation Notice less than two (2) months prior to the Occupancy Date unless another group uses that portion of the Facility reserved by Licensee hereunder for the period covered by this Agreement. Licensee shall be entitled to only a partial refund of the Deposit if only a percentage of the Facility reserved by Licensee are used by a third party for the period covered by this Agreement. In said event, the refund shall be equal to the fees paid by the third party during the Occupancy Dates for that portion of the Facility reserved by Licensee hereunder (i.e. said third-party payments that qualify for Licensee’s refund do not include other charges such as meals and damages, etc. incurred by the third-party).

 

6. Check-in / Check-out Times. Licensee Parties are not to arrive at the Facility prior to the check-in time of 3:00 p.m. unless otherwise specified in the Schedule. Check-out time is 11:00 a.m. unless otherwise specified in the Schedule.  Licensor may charge Licensee a fee of $12.00 for each Licensee Party that arrives at the Facility before check-in time. A day use fee of $12.00 will be charged for each Licensee Party that remains on the Facility past 11:00 a.m. after checking out. Licensee will be charged an additional $20 per every half hour for each lodging unit that is not vacated on or before 11:00 a.m. The fees or times specified herein may be modified by the Schedule. Licensee’s liability for said charges does not entitle a Licensee Party to be on the Facility before or after the reserved time specified in this Agreement (i.e., Licensor reserves the right to prohibit such day use).

 

7. Maximum Occupancy. For safety and insurance reasons, no more than four people may sleep in any lodging unit nor may more than two people sleep in a single loft.

 

8. Food Service. Licensor agrees to provide the meals and at the costs specified in the Schedule. The minimum charge per meal as specified in the Schedule shall apply in the event that the number of Licensee Parties partaking a particular meal would result in meal charges for the meal of less than the minimum charge. Licensee shall be liable for the minimum meal charge for all meals cancelled less than seven (7) days prior to the earliest Occupancy Date.
