Waiver and Release

I recognize that there are inherent dangers in glassblowing, glass working, and activities related to glassblowing, and that mortal or serious personal injuries and property damage, including (but not limited to) physical effort, cuts, burns, inhalation of hazardous substances, and/or exposure to visible and invisible radiation, may occur from my participation in such activities. I assume full responsibility for the risk of personal injury, death, and property damage due to the negligence and/or fault of the parties released by this document, and/or due to the condition of the premises on which the activities will take place, whether such negligence, fault, and/or condition of the premises is present at the signing of this agreement or takes place in the future. On my own behalf and on behalf of my heirs, personal representatives, and assigns, I hereby release Jim Loewer and Jim Loewer Glass, and all managers, partners, employees, and volunteers (collectively, “the parties released by this document”) from all claims, demands, actions, rights of action, or other legal rights to claim compensation for any loss or injury sustained as a result of their negligence or fault, or the condition of the premises, or any other cause whatsoever, whether loss or injury occurs while participating in, going to, or coming from such activity. However, this waiver and release does not apply to gross negligence or intentional torts by the parties released by this document.

Further, I agree to indemnify and hold all parties released by this document harmless from any

such claims or demands. I expressly agree that this waiver and release agreement is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by the Laws of the State of Pennsylvania and of any other state wherein such activities may occur, and that if any portion hereof is held invalid, the remainder hereof shall continue in full force and effect.

This Agreement contains and embodies the entire agreement and understandings between the
