WAIVER AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY for Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI)

This WAIVER and RELEASE OF LIABILITY was executed this ____ day of ___________ 2____, at Lincoln, Lancaster County,
State of Nebraska by _____________________, (Releasor) in favor of the UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA and its Regents,
Officers, Employees, Instructors, Staff, agents, operators, successors, and assigns (University).

The Releasor wishes to participate in Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) Activities. In consideration for the privilege of
participation in the program, the Releasor consents and agrees to the following:

    1.       Releasor certifies that he/she is physically capable of participating in the Activities and that he/she will take
             responsibility for physical fitness and capability to perform under normal conditions of the Activities. Releasor is
             encouraged to get his/her physician’s opinion prior to participating in any OLLI Activities. In the event of a medical
             emergency, the University of Nebraska or its representatives have my permission to take whatever measures they deem
             reasonable to render assistance and that I will be financially responsible for any expenses involved.

    2.       Releasor realizes that participation in the Activities involves certain risks and dangers. Releasor has hereby been made
             aware that participation in the Activities may have the following non-exclusive list of certain risks which I accept: death;
             head, eye, neck, and spinal injury resulting in complete or partial paralysis; brain damage; heart attack; blisters; cuts;
             lacerations; abrasions; concussions; contusions; strains; sprains; dislocations; fractures; cold and heat injuries; water
             immersion; drowning; lightning strikes; injury to bones, joints, muscles, internal organs; and environmental conditions.
             In addition, I understand and accept the incidental risks of travel to and from the site of activity; participation at sites that
             may be remote from available medical assistance; and the possible reckless conduct of other participants.

    3.       Consequently, while understanding that the UNIVERSITY has taken precautions to provide organization, supervision,
             and equipment for reasonable safety, Releasor assumes joint and personal responsibility for safety while participating in
             the Activities. Pursuant to that joint and personal responsibility, Releasor agrees to comply with the instructions and
             direction of representatives and staff members of the University. Releasor understands that failure to abide by the
             instructions and rules may result in his/her termination from the activity. Releasor accepts personal responsibility to
             ensure that any equipment needed to participate in the the Activities and used by the Releasor is safe and functioning
             properly and to refrain from causing loss or damage to the property of the University. Releasor realizes that he/she is
             solely responsible for any personal equipment, supplies, or property he/she may choose to use during the duration of the
             Activities.

    4.       Releasor further agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the UNIVERSITY for any and all claims or actions as a result
             of engaging in, using University facilities and equipment, or receiving instruction for the Activities or any activities
             incidental thereto whatsoever, whenever, or however the same may occur.

    5.       Releasor is aware that if he/she uses a vehicle not operated by the University for transportation to, at, or leaving the
             activity site, the University is NOT responsible for any damage caused by or arising from Releasor’s use of such
             vehicle. Furthermore, Releasor acknowledges that he/she is solely responsible for any action he/she takes outside the
             scope of those actions permitted by the University for purposes of the particular activity regardless if occurring before,
             during, or after the duration of the activity. Releasor agrees to follow University policies when operating a University
             owned vehicle.

    6.       In consideration of participation in the Activities, Releasor hereby RELEASES and covenants not-to-sue the
             UNIVERSITY for any and all present and future claims resulting from ordinary negligence on the part of the
             UNIVERSITY for property damage, personal injury, or wrongful death arising as a result of his/her engaging in, using
             University facilities and equipment, or receiving instruction for the Activities or activities thereto, wherever, whenever,
             or however the same may occur. Releasor hereby voluntarily waives any and all claims or actions resulting from
             ordinary negligence, both present and future, that may be made by Releasor’s family, estate, personal representative,
             heirs, or assigns.

    I have read and understand that this WAIVER is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by the laws of the State of
    Nebraska. I further agree the venue for any legal proceeding shall be in the State of Nebraska. I understand the rights that I am
    waiving and that I am freely signing this WAIVER AND RELEASE. I have read and fully understand that by signing this
    agreement I am giving up legal rights and remedies, which may be available to me for ordinary negligence of the UNIVERSITY.
    I further agree to follow and abide by the regulations and rules of the UNIVERSITY as they pertain to the Activities and to
    reimburse and make good to the UNIVERSITY any loss, damage, or cost the UNIVERSITY may have to pay as a result of my
    participation in the program.
