General Release and Indemnification Form

This is a Disclaimer Release – Read Before Signing

EVERY NEW MEMBER NEEDS TO SIGN RELEASE

I agree that RTP Corvettes and their respective officers, employees and agents (hereinafter referred to as “Released Parties”) shall not be liable or responsible for injury to me (including paralysis or death) or damage to my property occurring during any RTP Corvettes activity, function, social event or combined event with another organization and resulting from acts or omissions occurring during the performance of the duties of the Released Parties, even where the danger or injury is caused by negligence (except willful neglect). I understand and agree that all RTP Corvettes members, and their guests and family participate voluntarily and at their own risk in all activities and I assume all risks of injury and damage arising out of the conduct of such activities. I release and hold the Released Parties harmless from any injury or loss to my person or property, which may result from my participation in any RTP Corvettes activities and/or event. I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS MEANS THAT I AGREE NOT TO SUE THE “RELEASED PARTIES” FOR ANY INJURY OR RESULTING DAMAGE TO MYSELF OR MY PROPERTY ARISING FROM, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE PERFORMANCE OF THEIR CHAPTER DUTIES IN SPONSORING, PLANNING OR CONDUCTING OF ANY SAID EVENT.

Waiver of Rights Under State Statutes

I further agree to waive all benefits flowing from any state that would negate or limit the scope of the Release and Indemnification Agreement including, but not limited to the North Carolina Civil Code that provides: “A general release does not extend to the claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known to him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

By typing my name in the following field, I certify that I have read this release and fully understand it and that I am not relying on any statements or representations made by the “Released Parties.”
