WAIVER, INDEMNIFICATION, RELEASE OF CLAIMS AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE (the “Agreement”)

I, the undersigned participant, fully understand, appreciate and agree that I have voluntarily requested to participate in the "Bark at the Park" event (the "Event") at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas (the "Ballpark"), which will involve my attendance and the attendance of my dog of which I have custody. I acknowledge, agree, and represent that I have, or will immediately upon entering and continuously thereafter, inspected the area where I will be permitted to watch the game with my dog and determined that it is safe and suitable for my dog's participation in the Event and further agree and warrant that if, at any time, I determine anything to be unsafe, including the threat from other dogs participating in the event, I will immediately advise a Ballpark official of such unsafe condition(s) and will leave the Ballpark with my dog.

I acknowledge that the activities of the Event can be dangerous and could involve the risk of serious injury, illness, death, or damage to me, my dog, others, and others' dogs. I acknowledge that injuries received may be compounded or increased by negligent rescue operations or procedures of the Released Parties identified below. I understand that my actions and the actions of the dog of which I have custody and/or control during the Event may result in injuries and damages to myself and others, whether anticipated or unanticipated, or foreseeable or unforeseeable, including my dog as well as dogs of others by participating in this Event. I understand that I assume the risk and responsibility for any and all risks associated with participating in this Event, including but not limited to injury, Communicable Disease (as defined herein) death, and property damage, as well as injury, illness, death, and property damage to dogs.

I confirm and assure that my dog has current Rabies, Distemper, Parvo, Bordatella, and Canine Influenza Virus (CIV) vaccinations, is in good health, is able to tolerate the presence of crowds and other dogs, and does not demonstrate dangerous or aggressive behavior towards persons or other dogs. I agree to abide by all the rules and instructions given in connection with this Event. I assume the risk for injuries and damages sustained as a result of the manner and method by which the Event is administered.

I agree to grant the Rangers or their designees, without further compensation, an unrestricted, worldwide license in perpetuity to use, without further notification, the name, voice, image, likeness, actions and statements of me or any minor child and/or dog that accompanies me to the Event, for any purpose, including but not limited to advertising, promotional or commercial purposes, in any media known or hereafter developed.

In consideration for allowing me to participate in this Event with my dog in my custody and control, I agree, for myself, my dog, and for any minor child accompanying me to the Event, and all of our respective heirs, legatees, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, or anyone acting on our behalf, to forever waive, release, and discharge Rangers Baseball LLC (the "Rangers"), Rangers Baseball Express LLC, Rangers Stadium Company LLC, Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation, Ballpark Parking Partners LLC, the City of Arlington, any sponsor(s) of the Event, Office of the Commissioner of Baseball (“MLB”), MLB Advanced Media, L.P., Major League Baseball Properties, Inc., The MLB Network, LLC, the Major League Baseball Clubs**, and all of their respective parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, related entities, sponsors, officers, directors, employees, agents, officials, partners, managers and shareholders, and other personnel or entities in any way assisting or connected with this Event (together the "Released Parties"), from any and all claims, demands, causes of action, proceedings, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (in all cases including reasonable attorneys' fees), of any kind or nature, that relate to or arise in any way from attendance at or participation in the Event by me, my dog, and/or any minor child accompanying me, expressly including any claims arising from any NEGLIGENT acts, omissions, or conduct of the Released Parties (collectively, "Claims," and each, a “Claim”).**

I further agree that I am solely responsible for any Claim for personal injury, illness, injury to a dog, or property damage made by any third party and based in whole or in part on my, my dog's, and/or my minor child's attendance at or participation in the Event.

COMMUNICABLE DISEASE ASSUMPTION OF RISK AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY. This Section is an acknowledgement and express assumption of risk and release of liability in any way related to me, my dog, and/or any minor child accompanying me being exposed to or contracting COVID-19 (as defined by the World Health Organization) and any strains, variants, or mutations thereof, the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 and/or any other communicable and/or infectious diseases, viruses, bacteria or illnesses or the causes thereof (collectively, “Communicable Disease”), during or in connection with my, my dog’s , and/or my child’s participation in the Event and/or my/my child’s presence at the Ballpark.

In connection with the foregoing, I agree that I/my child will not participate in the Event or be present at the Ballpark if, within fourteen (14) days preceding the Event, I/my child (i) tested positive or presumptively positive for Communicable Disease or was identified as a potential carrier of Communicable Disease, (ii) experienced any symptoms commonly associated with Communicable Disease, including, without limitation, fever, cough, loss of sense of taste or smell, or shortness of breath; and/or (iii) was in direct contact with or the immediate vicinity of any person who is either confirmed or suspected of being infected with Communicable Disease.
