I am also aware of the [highly] contagious nature of [bacterial and viral diseases including] [the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19)/[OTHER INFECTIOUS DISEASE(S)]] ([collectively, ]the "Disease") and the risk that I may be exposed to or contract the Disease [or other infectious diseases] by engaging in the Activity, which may result in serious illness, personal injury, disability, death, or property damage.

[I understand that while the Company has implemented measures to reduce the risk of injury from the Activity and the spread of the Disease, the Company cannot guarantee that I will not be injured or become infected with the Disease due to my participation in the Activity.] I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT I AM VOLUNTARILY PARTICIPATING IN THE ACTIVITY WITH KNOWLEDGE OF THE DANGERS INVOLVED. I HEREBY AGREE TO ACCEPT AND ASSUME ALL RISKS OF INJURY, ILLNESS, DISABILITY, DEATH, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE ARISING FROM MY ENGAGING IN THE ACTIVITY, WHETHER CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE COMPANY OR OTHERWISE.
- I hereby expressly waive and release any and all claims which I have or may in future have, against the Company, and its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, affiliates, shareholders, successors, and assigns (collectively, "Releasees"), on account of injury, illness, disability, death, or property damage arising out of or attributable to [my participation in] the Activity, whether arising out of the negligence of the Company or any other Releasee or otherwise, including without limitation, breach of contract, or breach of any statutory or other duty of care. I covenant not to make or bring any such claim against the Company or any other Releasee, and forever release and discharge the Company and all other Releasees from liability under such claims.
- [I confirm that I am: (a) in good health, in proper physical condition, and do not have any medical or other conditions that would impair my ability to participate in the Activity; and (b) not experiencing symptoms of the Disease (such as [cough, shortness of breath, or fever/[OTHER SYMPTOMS]]), do not have a confirmed or suspected case of the Disease, and have not come in contact in the last [fourteen/[OTHER NUMBER IN WORDS]] ([14/[OTHER NUMBER]]) days with a person who has been confirmed or suspected of having the Disease.

I will also follow all instructions, recommendations, and cautions of the Company at all times during the Activity. If at any time I believe conditions to be unsafe, that I am no longer in proper physical condition to participate in the Activity, or I begin experiencing symptoms of the Disease, I will immediately discontinue further participation in the Activity.]
