RELEASE OF LIABILITY AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK

The individual named below (referred to as “I” or “me”) desires to take part in one-on-one parenting classes, rooted in Montessori philosophy, delivered electronically (the “Activity”) provided by Hapa Family, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the “Company”). In consideration of being permitted by the Company to participate in the Activity, the intangible value that I will gain by participating in the Activity, and in recognition of the Company's reliance hereon, I agree to all the terms and conditions set forth in this agreement (this “Release”).

  1. I am aware and understand that the Activity (i) does not involve the diagnosis or treatment of mental disorders as defined by the American Psychiatric Association, (ii) is not a substitute for counseling, psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, mental health care or substance abuse treatment, and (iii) is not to be used as a substitute for professional advice by legal, medical, financial, business, spiritual or other qualified professionals.  I will seek independent professional guidance for legal, medical, financial, business, spiritual or other matters.  I understand that all decisions in these areas are exclusively mine and all decisions and actions regarding them are my sole responsibility.  

  2. 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 ILLNESS, PERSONAL OR PSYCHOLOGICAL INJURY, PAIN, SUFFERING, TEMPORARY OR PERMANENT DISABILITY, DEATH, PROPERTY DAMAGE, AND/OR FINANCIAL LOSS ARISING THEREFROM, WHETHER CAUSED BY THE ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF THE COMPANY OR OTHERWISE. 

  3. I hereby expressly waive and release any and all claims, now known or hereafter known, against the Company and its officers, directors, shareholders, successors, and assigns (collectively, “Releasees”) on account of personal or psychological injury, illness, pain, suffering, temporary or permanent disability, death, property damage, or financial loss arising out of or attributable to my participating in the Activity, whether arising out of the ordinary negligence of the Company or any Releasees or otherwise. 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.

  4. I shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Company and all other Releasees against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, claims, actions, judgments, settlements, interest, awards, penalties, fines, costs, or expenses of whatever kind, including attorneys' fees, the costs of enforcing any right to indemnification under this Release, and the cost of pursuing any insurance providers, incurred by the Company or any other Releasees arising out of or resulting from any claim of a third party related to my participating in the Activity, including any claim related to my own negligence or the ordinary negligence of the Company.

  5. This Release constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the Company and me with respect to the subject matter contained herein and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. If any term or provision of this Release is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Release or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. This Release is binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the Company and me and our respective successors and assigns. All matters arising out of or relating to this Release shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Colorado without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Colorado or any other jurisdiction). Any claim or cause of action arising under this Release may be brought only in the federal and state courts located Douglas County, Colorado and I hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts.

BY SIGNING, I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD ALL OF THE TERMS OF THIS RELEASE AND THAT I AM VOLUNTARILY GIVING UP SUBSTANTIAL LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO SUE THE COMPANY.
