The Participants understand that, while VENT has implemented measures to reduce the risk of injury from participation in the Tours and the spread of the Diseases, VENT cannot guarantee that the Participants will not be injured or become infected with the Diseases due to participation in the Tours and that participating in the Tours may increase the risk of contracting the Diseases. NOTWITHSTANDING THESE RISKS, THE PARTICIPANTS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE PARTICIPANTS ARE VOLUNTARILY PARTICIPATING IN THE TOURS WITH KNOWLEDGE OF THE DANGERS INVOLVED.

EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT SUCH PARTY IS WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE AS THE MEMBER OF A CLASS IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW RULES. \r\n\r\n9.\tFurther Assurances for Minor Participants. In the event a Participant includes a minor (a “Minor”), at least one (1) other Participant in the booking and registration in the Tour shall be the parent or legal guardian of such Minor and shall be legally authorized to agree to the terms of this Waiver on behalf of the Minor. Each Participant acknowledges that the Released Parties shall rely on the foregoing representation and warranty, and such Participants shall indemnify and hold harmless the Released Parties from all reliance on such representation and warranty.\r\n\r\n10.\tEnforceability. Each Participant has read and understands this Waiver, which contains the entire and final agreement relating to the subject matter hereof. Each Participant understands and agrees that the terms of this Waiver will be binding on such Participant and such Participant’s heirs, legal representatives, and assigns. If any provision of this Waiver is determined to be void, unenforceable, ineffective, or against public policy, such provision will be disregarded and deemed removed from this Waiver and will not affect the remaining provisions of this Waiver. The terms of this Waiver are contractual and binding.\r\n\r\n11.\tElectronic Signatures. The Participants’ acceptance of this Waiver is further evidenced by the affirmative assent to the same (e.g., by submitting the order for the booking), which is the equivalent of the Participants’ electronic signature. However, for the avoidance of doubt, such electronic signature is not required to evidence or facilitate the Participants’ acceptance and agreement to this Waiver, as the Participants agree that their booking and registration of the Tour constitutes an agreement and acceptance to the terms of this Waiver.\r\n \r\n\r\n",[8251,8254,8257,8259,8262,8264,8266,8268,8270,8272,8274,8277,8279],{"label":8252,"requiredPerParticipant":159,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":159,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":8253},"Title","List",{"label":8255,"requiredPerParticipant":159,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":159,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":8256},"First Name","String",{"label":8258,"requiredPerParticipant":159,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":159,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":8256},"Last Name",{"label":8260,"requiredPerParticipant":159,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":159,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":8261},"Mobile","Phone",{"label":8263,"requiredPerParticipant":159,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":159,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":8256},"Email",{"label":8265,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":8256},"Address",{"label":8267,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":8256},"City",{"label":8269,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":8253},"Country",{"label":8271,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":8256},"State/County/Region",{"label":8273,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":8256},"Postcode/ZIP",{"label":8275,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":154,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":8276},"I agree to receive marketing emails","Boolean",{"label":8278,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":8256},"How did you hear about us?",{"label":8280,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":154,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":8256},"Special Requirements",20.593684,78.96288,"AUTO_THEN_MANUAL",7,"2026-01-02T18:33:46Z",86400,11520,"2026-04-16T16:00:14Z",{"addressLine":21,"postCode":21,"city":21,"state":21,"countryCode":8290,"latitude":8281,"longitude":8282},"in",[8292],"en_us",[],[8295],{"allDay":154,"endTime":8296,"endTimeLocal":8297,"id":8298,"priceOptions":8299,"productCode":5902,"seats":8305,"seatsAvailable":1233,"startTime":8306,"startTimeLocal":8307},"2026-12-06T12:00:00Z","2026-12-06 12:00:00",452913886,[8300,8303],{"id":8301,"label":8226,"price":8302,"productCode":5902,"seatsUsed":47},59165481,4545,{"id":8304,"label":8229,"maxQuantity":1233,"minQuantity":1233,"price":8222,"productCode":5902,"seatsUsed":47},59165482,12,"2026-11-29T12:00:00Z","2026-11-29 12:00:00",{"story":8309,"rels":8334,"error":48},{"name":8310,"created_at":8311,"published_at":8312,"updated_at":8313,"id":8314,"uuid":8315,"content":8316,"slug":8327,"full_slug":8328,"sort_by_date":48,"position":8329,"tag_list":8330,"is_startpage":154,"parent_id":3269,"meta_data":48,"group_id":8331,"first_published_at":8332,"release_id":48,"lang":157,"path":48,"alternates":8333,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48},"What's Included","2026-02-26T18:29:30.339Z","2026-03-16T20:30:53.345Z","2026-03-16T20:30:53.356Z",149262214544972,"6a9920ce-bc89-4ba6-b121-12cf78e147c9",{"_uid":8317,"component":8318,"active_body":8319,"active_title":8320,"services_body":8321,"services_title":8322,"accomodations_body":8323,"accomodations_title":8324,"transportation_body":8325,"transportation_title":8326},"44f9d480-81cc-49ef-944d-9dc7b7ec3419","whats-included","Every tour includes the core elements that make our field experiences possible so you can stay engaged with a range of activities.
