For this Event, or any other meeting, training, or seminar organized by Sumrok, I hereby grant Sumrok ALL RIGHTS to use my name, likeness, and voice as captured, edited, recorded, or rendered in various audio, visual, and written medium created by Sumrok, to be used in commercial, instructional, and promotional activities as Sumrok sees fit in their sole discretion.

I hereby represent and state that any facts, figures, testimonials and stories I may relate to others at the Event, or at any other meeting, training, or seminar organized by Sumrok, are my own, are truthful, and are given freely and voluntarily without any offer of payment or inducement made by Sumrok to me. I am executing this Publicity Release Agreement and General Release (“Instrument”) without any expectation of receiving any remuneration by Sumrok whatsoever.

I expressly acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Instrument, in any other written or oral communications relating to this Event, in any materials promulgated or distributed with respect thereto, or at any other meeting, training, or seminar organized by Sumrok, constitutes a representation, express or implied, or guarantee made by Sumrok to me. I expressly acknowledge and agree that the Event is an educational event, and no representation or warranty of any kind regarding specific or general benefits, monetary or otherwise, was or has been or is being made to me by Sumrok or their principals, agents, or employees. I expressly acknowledge and agree that neither the Event nor Sumrok are responsible for my business success or failure, for my acts or omissions, or for the appropriateness or inappropriateness of my business decisions heretofore made or hereafter made.

I expressly acknowledge, understand, and represent that the Event and any other subsequent meetings, trainings, or seminars organized by Sumrok are strictly educational in nature and that Sumrok is not, and should not be construed to be, rendering legal, financial, investment, or accounting services or advice of any nature or kind whatsoever. 

I EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT ANY SERVICES, PRODUCTS, OR LICENSES PROVIDED BY SUMROK TO ME AT THE EVENT OR THEREAFTER ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS-IS” BASIS, WITHOUT EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE, ALL OF WHICH ARE HEREBY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMED BY SUMROK.

I HEREBY FULLY AND FOREVER RELEASE AND HOLD HARMLESS SUMROK AND THEIR OWNERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, OFFICERS, AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, PRESENTERS, MENTORS, CONTRACTORS, SUCCESSORS, AND ASSIGNS (COLLECTIVELY REFERRED TO HEREIN AS THE “SUMROK PARTIES”) FROM ANY AND ALL LIABILITY, DAMAGES (INCLUDING SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES), CLAIMS, DEMANDS, ACTIONS AND CAUSES OF ACTION, WHATSOEVER, IN ANY WAY RESULTING FROM OR ARISING OUT OF THE EVENT OR SUMROK’S PROGRAM, AND/OR THE ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF ANY OF THE SUMROK PARTIES DURING OR FOLLOWING THIS EVENT. THIS IS A FULL AND FINAL RELEASE APPLYING TO ALL KNOWN, UNKNOWN AND UNANTICIPATED CONSEQUENCES, INJURIES AND DAMAGES.

I HEREBY EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT MY DAMAGES, IF ANY, FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS THAT I MAY HAVE AGAINST SUMROK ARE AND SHALL BE LIMITED IN TOTAL TO THE AMOUNT I PAID FOR THIS EVENT.

     In the event of a dispute, I agree to negotiate in good faith with Sumrok to resolve the dispute.  If the dispute cannot be resolved by negotiation, I agree that, prior to filing any legal proceeding, the parties shall submit the dispute to mediation before a mutually acceptable mediator in Dallas, Texas, with the parties sharing equally in the costs of mediation.  If mediation is unsuccessful, I agree that any controversy, dispute, or claim arising out of, concerning, related to, or in connection with the Event or the interpretation, performance, or breach of this Instrument shall be finally determined, at the request of either party, by arbitration conducted in Dallas, Texas, in accordance with existing rules for commercial arbitration of the American Arbitration Association, and judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered by any state or federal court having jurisdiction thereof.  The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to determine all issues of arbitrability, including, but not limited to, whether this provision has been waived by litigation conduct.  The arbitrator shall award the prevailing party, in addition to the costs of the proceeding, that party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees. The parties hereto shall be bound by this provision and the results of any such arbitration.  I agree that no arbitrator shall have authority to conduct any arbitration in violation of the class action waiver (see below) or to issue any relief that applies to any person or entity other than myself and/or Sumrok.  I hereby irrevocably consent to jurisdiction of the Courts of the State of Texas in connection with any action that arises out of or relates to this Instrument or any dispute with Sumrok and agree that any such arbitration shall be brought only in Dallas County, Texas.  The prevailing party in any such proceeding arising from this Instrument may recover from the non-prevailing party all costs of the proceeding and reasonable attorneys’ fees.

     I hereby expressly waive my right to a jury trial for any controversy, dispute, or claim arising out of, concerning, relating to, or in connection with THE EVENT OR the interpretation, performance, or breach of this INSTRUMENT.

     I HEREBY EXPRESSLEY WAIVE, WITH RESPECT TO ANY DISPUTE: (I) THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION, EITHER AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER; AND (II) THE RIGHT TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS WITH CLAIMS OF ANY OTHER PERSON.

This Agreement shall be governed by, construed, and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas.  I acknowledge and agree that in the event that any provision of this Instrument is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that the remainder of this instrument shall continue in full force and effect as if the unenforceable or invalid provision was not a part hereof. Without limiting the foregoing, I agree that each and every provision of this Instrument which provides for a release or limitation of liability, disclaimer or exclusion of damages is intended to be several and independent of any other provision to the extent necessary to allow and permit the full enforcement thereof.

I understand and agree that, as an Event Participant, I may (but am not obligated to) invest in securities and investment opportunities offered by other Event attendees and/or their affiliates, but I acknowledge that I invest at my own risk and hold Sumrok harmless.  I expressly acknowledge, represent, and agree that if I do invest in any securities or investment opportunities presented to me by any other Event attendee, including Sumrok, that I am doing so freely and voluntarily after conducting the due diligence that I deem appropriate and in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations and all other applicable laws.  I represent that I understand the inherent risks associated with investing in real estate.  I HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE AND RELEASE SUMROK FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ASSOCIATED WITH ANY DEALS, INVESTMENTS, SYNDICATIONS, OFFERINGS, AND THE LIKE THAT I LEARN ABOUT, CREATE, OR INVEST IN WHETHER INDIVIDUALLY OR THROUGH AN ENTITY FROM AND AFTER THE DATE OF THIS INSTRUMENT, INCLUDING ANY CLAIMS THAT I WAS NOT PRESENTED WITH ANY DEALS, INVESTMENTS, SYNDICATIONS, OFFERINGS, AND THE LIKE AS A RESULT OF MY ATTENDING THE EVENT. 

Furthermore, to the extent I am, or I control, an issuer of securities or offeror of investment opportunities, I expressly acknowledge, represent and agree that I will not offer or accept subscriptions for securities or funding of investment opportunities from other Event participants unless (1) I hold all Sumrok Parties harmless and fully indemnify, including the advance payment of expenses on behalf of Sumrok Parties, (2) I am a registered participant of Sumrok’s Personal Mentoring program, and, (3) I do so only in strict compliance with applicable securities laws and regulations and all other applicable laws.

I acknowledge, understand and agree that Sumrok does not and will not endorse, promote, or broker any securities or investment opportunities made by one Event participant or his/her affiliates to another Event participant or his/her affiliates. I understand that, due to the general educational nature of the information provided by Sumrok to its Event participants, such information should not be construed as being all inclusive or as containing all the information that I may need or desire in investigating any specific investment before making an investment decision. I will conduct and rely on my own evaluation of each investment and promoter, and the terms of the offering, including all merits and all risks involved. I acknowledge, understand and agree that I should consult my own attorney, business advisor or tax advisor as to the legal, business, and tax aspects of any investment. I acknowledge, understand and agree that any direct or indirect investment in real estate involves a high degree of risk and speculation, and is potentially suitable only for investors of substantial means who have no need for liquidity in the investment. I further acknowledge, understand and agree that any securities or opportunities offered for investment may be subject to restrictions on transferability and resale and may not by transferable or resold except as permitted under applicable securities laws and regulations. I understand that I might be required to bear the economic risk of an investment for an indefinite period of time and that no public market may exist for the offered investment and none may develop. I expressly acknowledge, understand, represent and agree that Sumrok is not responsible for, and hereby disclaims and responsibility for, any loss I experience as a result of investing in any security or investment opportunity offered by another Event participant, or their affiliates, including Sumrok.

     I agree to remain in the training room (and not loiter outside the training room) except for authorized breaks or urgent personal matters. I agree that Sumrok may remove me from the Event, or any other meeting, training, or seminar, for violating this Instrument, at the sole discretion of Sumrok.

     This Instrument contains all of the arrangements, understandings, representations, promises, inducements, or other communications, whether written or oral, between Sumrok and me. I expressly disclaim reliance upon any arrangement, understanding, representation, promise, inducement, or other communication, whether written or oral, if any, from Sumrok that is not contained in this Instrument.

          I represent and warrant that I am fully competent to contract in my own name, have carefully read this instrument, and fully understand its contents. As a material inducement to Sumrok to allow me to attend the Event, I have executed this Instrument.
