I, (PARTICIPANT NAME), seek to participate in competitive rifle shooting matches and associated
events organized by Michigan Precision Rifle Steel Challenge LLC (“MPRSC”), a Michigan limited liability company, according to this Participation Agreement (the “Agreement”) and the below included Express Assumption of Risk, Release of Liability, Waiver of Claims, and Indemnity (the “Release and Waiver”) and do hereby acknowledge and agree to the following:

Payment Terms. In consideration of my opportunity to participate in MPRSC matches and related events, I will be required to pay a non-refundable fee of between $55.00 and $300.00 per match, the payment of which shall be due in advance of my participation.

Range Facility. Unless otherwise notified by MPRSC, all matches shall be held at Marksmanship Training Center (“MTC”) in Lake City, MI and upon such date and time as may be determined by MPRSC.

Scheduling. If, for any reason, a match or event must be rescheduled, including due to inclement weather, MPRSC shall make reasonable efforts to notify me, including by posting such notice online.

Special Events. I understand that participating in special events organized by MPRSC may require special entry fees, which shall be required to be paid prior to my participation in such events.

EXCEPT AS IS OTHERWISE PROVIDED HEREIN, MPRSC HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE ADEQUACY OR QUALITY OF THE SERVICES, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

Participation. In consideration of my participation, I hereby agree to abide the following rules and obligations:
• For the safety of myself and others, I shall abide by all federal, state, and local laws and regulations concerning
firearms and my use of firearms in firearm related activities.
• For the safety of myself and others, I shall ensure that my firearm and ammunition meet federal standards and are properly maintained and are in good working order.
• For the safety of myself and others, I shall abide by all rules concerning competition and safety as outlined in the
Precision Rifle Series rulebook, which shall be made available to me upon request.
• For the safety of myself and others, I shall abide by all rules and requirements of the range facility, including such rules that concern firearm and range safety.
• For the safety of myself and others, I shall not participate in any MPRSC shooting events under the influence of
drugs or alcohol and shall be physically and mentally fit to participate.
• For the safety of myself and others, I shall handle and maintain my firearm in a safe and responsible manner at all times and conform my conduct to the seriousness of the activity while participating.
• For the safety of myself and others, I shall wear appropriate eye and ear protection and properly secure my firearm and gear while participating and while attending matches and events.
• For the safety of myself and others, I shall follow all reasonable instructions given to me by MPRSC and range
officials during my participation, including a request to leave the facility.
• For the safety of myself and others, I shall practice common sense firearm safety and shall take full responsibility for my own actions while participating in MPRSC matches and events.
I understand that my failure to abide by these rules may result in serious consequences, including but not limited to, my immediate expulsion from participation and my prohibition from participating in future events. I further understand that MPRSC reserves the right to deny me the opportunity to participate for any reason or no reason at all in its sole and absolute discretion.
Release and Wavier. Further, I do hereby agree to the following Release and Waiver, which constitutes a waiver of important legal rights, including the right to sue to recover damages for property damage, injury, and death:

EXPRESS ASSUMPTION OF RISK, RELEASE OF LIABILITY, WAIVER OF CLAIMS, AND INDEMNITY
This Release and Waiver is entered into by the undersigned in favor of Michigan Precision Rifle Steel Challenge LLC (“MPRSC”), a Michigan limited liability company, and its respective owners, officers, members, employees, agents, successors, and assigns (collectively the “Released Parties” and each, a “Released Party”).

In consideration of being permitted to participate in competitive rifle shooting matches and firearm related events and activities (collectively, “Firearm Activities”) or observing others participating in such events or activities organized by MPRSC, with or without supervision, I acknowledge and agree as follows:
Acknowledgment of Dangerous Activity. I acknowledge that Firearm Activities are inherently dangerous and fully realize that there are certain dangers and intrinsic risks associated with Firearm Activities, including the risks of property damage, personal injury, and death. I recognize that even when proper precautions are taken, unpredictable and serious accidents can and do occur. I understand that my safety and that of my property cannot be guaranteed while participating in Firearm Activities. Despite understanding these risks, including the risk of serious physical harm, I nonetheless choose to participate in Firearm Activities.

Assumption of Risk. Understanding the risks involved, I voluntarily choose to participate in Firearm Activities and to be around others in possession of and discharging firearms, and EXPRESSLY ASSUME the associated risks, including the risk of injury and death, whether caused by the negligence of any of the Released Parties or any other cause. I accept full and complete responsibility for the safety of myself and my property, and the safety of any guests or observers accompanying me or present during Firearm Activities. Further, I assume the risk of damage or injury caused by me, my guests and observers, and INDEMNIFY the Released Parties against any claims for damages to persons or property caused by me or my guests and observers. I further acknowledge and agree that Section 4 of the Michigan Sport Shooting Ranges Act 269 of 1989 applies to my participation.
Unpredictable Causes and Personal Responsibility. I understand that injuries and harm may result from being around Firearm Activities from a variety of causes, including the acts or omissions of other persons, weather, environmental and situational conditions, and other causes which are not necessarily predictable. I understand that it is my responsibility to follow all laws, rules, and instructions, to practice proper firearm safety, and to act in a responsible manner to ensure my own safety and the safety of others to the maximum extent possible.
Personal Property; Insurance. I agree that I am responsible for the security of my own personal property, including my firearm(s), ammunition, shooting gear, and any other personal effects, and that the Released Parties cannot guaranty the security of my property. Should I leave any personal property in the custody of the Released Parties, I do so at my own risk.

None of the Released Parties shall have any liability to me in the event of loss, damage, unauthorized use by any person or the theft of any such property. I acknowledge that I should purchase sufficient insurance to cover my own property and other interests.

Release and Waiver of Claims. On behalf of myself, my heirs, successors in interest, guardians, legal representatives, personal representatives and assigns, and to the extent permitted by law, I HEREBY RELEASE AND FOREVER DISCHARGE THE RELEASED PARTIES, JOINTLY AND SEVERALLY, FROM ALL CLAIMS, ACTIONS, DEMANDS, RIGHTS, CAUSES OF ACTION AND LIABILITIES, IN LAW OR IN EQUITY, WHETHER MY OWN OR DERIVATIVE CLAIMS, BASED UPON ANY BODILY INJURY OR DISABILITY, ILLNESS OR DISEASE, DEATH, FINANCIAL LOSS, PROPERTY LOSS, DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION OR OTHER HARM, OF WHATEVER NATURE, WHETHER FORESEEN OR UNFORESEEN, THAT MAY BE SUFFERED OR SUSTAINED BY ME OR BY ANY OTHER PERSON AS A DIRECT OR INDIRECT CONSEQUENCE OF MY PARTICIPATION IN FIREARM ACTIVITIES, WHETHER CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF RELEASED PARTIES OR OTHERWISE, provided, however, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to release any Released Party from liability arising from their own willful or intentional injury to me or my property.
Promise Not to Bring Suit. I hereby agree that I, my heirs, successors in interest, guardians, personal representatives, legal representatives and assigns will not bring a claim against, sue, demand compensation from or attach the property or assets of the Released Parties, either in my name or their own name, for any loss or damage arising or resulting directly or indirectly from my participation in Firearm Activities.
Indemnification. I agree to INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS each of the Released Parties from and against any and all claims, suits, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses, including but not limited to reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, arising from or in connection with the injury or death of any person, including negligence in rescue attempts, or the damage, destruction, or loss of any property which might result, directly or indirectly, from my participation in Firearm Activities.
Invitees. I agree that I will not permit any person to fire or handle my firearm(s) unless such person has the express permission of MPRSC and has executed and delivered to MPRSC a signed copy of this Agreement. I agree that damage to the Released Parties that may arise from a breach of this Agreement under this Paragraph include, but shall not be limited to, liabilities and costs arising from claims that would have been released or waived had my invitee executed the required documents, and the costs and expenses of defending any such claims. I agree to INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS each of the Released Parties from and against any and all such liabilities, costs and expenses. Further, I expressly assume all risk of damage or injury to my invitees while they are my guests, and INDEMNIFY the Released Parties against any claims for damages or injury suffered by my invitees.

Unforeseeable Events. I realize that this waiver refers to and covers events that may take place after the signing of this document, and that the exact nature of any injury or loss I may suffer as a result of my participation in Firearm Activities may not be entirely foreseeable. I do realize that the extent of loss possible includes serious bodily injury or death, and damage to or total loss of personal property. With regard to such injury or damage, I acknowledge that it is foreseeable that I may suffer serious injury or death, or total loss of my personal property.
Choice of Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the state of Michigan without giving effect to its conflict of laws principles. Any and all disputes arising hereunder shall be adjudicated in a Michigan court of competent jurisdiction located in Ingham County, Michigan.

Assignment. I agree that this Agreement may not be assigned except by MPRSC, which may freely assign any and all rights, interests, and obligations under this Agreement without my prior consent or notice. Further, I acknowledge and agree that this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by MPRSC’s respective successors and assigns.
Amendment. No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be deemed effective unless made in writing and signed by the parties hereto.

Severability. I agree that this Agreement is intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by Michigan law. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any law or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect.
Term. The term of this Agreement is indefinite unless and until MPRSC terminates the Agreement in writing.
Duplicate Originals. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Agreement. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this Agreement and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Agreement as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Agreement for all purposes. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by fax or PDF shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.

Miscellaneous. Unless the context of this Agreement otherwise requires: (1) words importing the singular include the plural and vice-versa, (2) the use of all pronouns shall be interchangeable and considered gender neutral, and (3) section headings and paragraph titles in this Agreement are for convenience only and form no part of this Agreement and shall not affect its interpretation.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement along with any Release and Waiver of Claims of Minor Addendum, if applicable, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and, upon its effectiveness, shall supersede all prior agreements, understandings and arrangements, both oral and written, with respect to such subject matter.

Representations and Warranties. I hereby represent and warrant that:
• I HAVE VOLUNTARILY EXECUTED THIS AGREEMENT OF MY OWN FREE WILL, WITHOUT DURESS OR
PRESSURE FROM ANY PERSON AND I AM OVER THE AGE OF 18.
• I UNDERSTAND AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT I AM GIVING UP IMPORTANT LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO RECOVER DAMAGES IN THE EVENT OF PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH. I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS DOCUMENT IS A PROMISE NOT TO SUE AND A RELEASE OF AND INDEMNIFICATION OF ALL CLAIMS.
• I HAVE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY, AND FULLY UNDERSTAND ALL OF ITS TERMS AND
CONDITIONS. MY SIGNATURE BELOW IS AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT THAT I HAVE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CAREFULLY READ THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT AND TO HAVE MY QUESTIONS ANSWERED TO MY SATISFACTION.

I FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTAND THAT the nature and condition of the RANGE facilities, premises and environment is such that both known and unanticipated hazards exist which create or contribute to both known and unanticipated risks inherent in entering on to the RANGE, in using RANGE facilities and in engaging in or observing any activities of any kind whatsoever while at the RANGE. The hazards include, but are not limited to: slippery, loose or falling soil and rocks; unimproved, unmaintained, or uneven terrain, walkways, steps and roads; poisonous or dangerous plants, reptiles, insects and other animals; and falling trees and tree branches.

I FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTAND THAT Global Independent, LLC makes no warranty as to the design, manufacture, maintenance, condition or fitness for any particular purpose of any RANGE facilities or equipment, including, but not limited to: firearms, ammunition, eye/hearing protection, and first-aid supplies.

As lawful consideration for being permitted by Global Independent, LLC to enter on to the RANGE, to use RANGE facilities or equipment and to engage in or observe shooting and other activities at the RANGE, as either a Member or a Guest, I agree as follows: I EXPRESSLY AGREE TO ACCEPT AND ASSUME ANY AND ALL RISKS EXISTING ON THE RANGE AND IN ENTERING ON TO THE RANGE AND IN USING RANGE FACILITIES OR EQUIPMENT AND IN ENGAGING IN OR OBSERVING SHOOTING AND OTHER ACTIVITIES AT THE RANGE. 

I AGREE to assume all responsibility and liability for any act or acts, even any negligent, reckless or criminal act or omission to act, of my Dependents at the RANGE (I understand that “my Dependents” includes any and all persons who are under the age of 18 years old who enter on to the RANGE, use the RANGE facilities or engage in or observe shooting and other activities at the RANGE as a result of my express invitation, supervision, permission or consent). I agree that I will ensure that each of my Dependents read and sign an “Acknowledgement of Risk, Release & Indemnity Agreement.”

whatsoever, that I, my next of kin, heirs, guardians, representatives or assigns may have for property damage, personal injury or death resulting from me or my Dependents entering on to the RANGE, using RANGE facilities or equipment, or engaging in or observing shooting and other activities at the RANGE, even if such claims, demands, damages, expenses, causes of action, attachments of property, or liability result partially or wholly from any act or acts, even any negligent act or omission to act, including negligent or omitted first- aid or rescue operations or procedures, by Global Independent, LLC.
