6. Covenant Not to Sue. You agree not to commence, prosecute or assist in any suit, action, arbitration or proceeding against any Released Party with respect to any claim released under Section 5. If you bring any such claim in breach of this Section, you agree to pay the reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by the affected Released Party in defending it.
   
   
7. Indemnification. You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Released Parties from and against any loss, liability, damage, claim, penalty or cost, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or relating to your negligent or otherwise wrongful act or omission in connection with the Event, including any damage caused by you to any exhibited artifact, artwork, display fixture, equipment or venue property, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of a Released Party.
   
   
8. Personal Property. You are solely responsible for your personal property at all times.

Lockers, coat check or bag storage, if offered, are provided as a convenience only and at your sole risk.
   
   
9. Exhibit and Artifact Conduct. Many items on display, including original memorabilia and artifacts, are rare, fragile and irreplaceable. You must not touch, handle, lean on, climb on or otherwise come into contact with any displayed artifact, case, plinth, barrier or exhibit fixture, except where expressly invited to do so as part of a designated interactive element. You must supervise at all times any minor in your care. You agree to comply with all posted signage and with all instructions given by Event staff, venue personnel and security at all times.
   
   
10. Alcoholic Beverages.

(b) Waiver. You waive any right to inspect or approve any such photograph, recording or use, and any right to compensation of any kind, and you release the Released Parties from any claim for invasion of privacy, violation of any right of publicity, defamation, false light, or any similar or related claim arising out of any such use.

No Released Party can guarantee, and no Released Party is liable for, your incidental appearance in crowd photography, video or livestream. (d) Minors. A parent or legal guardian accepting this Waiver on behalf of a minor grants the rights in this Section, and gives the waiver and release in this Section, with respect to that minor.
    
    
12. Health; Physical Condition; Medical Treatment. You represent that you are physically able to attend and participate in the Event and have no medical condition that would be aggravated by attendance, including any known sensitivity to flashing or strobe lighting. If you have any health concern, consult your physician before attending and consider your participation in the interactive LED experience accordingly. You authorize the Released Parties to summon emergency medical assistance on your behalf if they determine in good faith that it is warranted, and you agree that you are solely responsible for the cost of any medical care or transportation provided to you. No Released Party is obligated to provide medical care, and no Released Party is liable for any act or omission of any independent emergency responder or medical provider.
    
    
13. Communicable Disease. You acknowledge that attendance at any gathering involves a risk of exposure to communicable diseases, including viral and bacterial illness. You knowingly and voluntarily assume that risk and release the Released Parties from any claim arising out of exposure to or contraction of any communicable disease in connection with the Event, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of a Released Party.
    
    
14. Rules of Admission; Right to Refuse or Revoke Entry. A ticket is a revocable license to attend the Event and confers no other right. The Released Parties reserve the right, without refund, to refuse entry to, or to remove, any person who (a) fails to comply with this Waiver, with posted rules, or with the instructions of staff or security, (b) appears to be intoxicated or impaired, (c) is under the influence in a manner that creates a risk to that person or others, or (d) engages in disorderly, unsafe, harassing or unlawful conduct. Bags and personal items may be subject to inspection as a condition of entry. Prohibited items include weapons, outside alcohol, professional recording equipment, and any item identified in posted rules.
    
    
15. Changes to the Event; Cancellation. Programming, performers, exhibited artifacts, session times and Event elements are subject to change or substitution without notice. If the Event is cancelled in whole or in part, or is rescheduled, the sole remedy of a ticketholder is a refund of the ticket price actually paid for the cancelled portion, and in no event shall any Released Party be liable for travel, lodging, or any other incidental or consequential cost or damage.
    
    
16. Minors. (a) A Guest under eighteen (18) years of age must be accompanied at all times by a parent or legal guardian, who is responsible for supervising the minor throughout the Event. (b) The parent or legal guardian accepts this Waiver both individually and on behalf of the minor, and represents that he or she is the minor’s parent or legal guardian with authority to do so. (c) The parent or legal guardian, individually: (i) assumes on behalf of himself or herself and the minor the risks described in this Waiver; (ii) releases the Released Parties from all claims of the parent or guardian arising out of injury to the minor, including claims for medical and other expenses, loss of the minor’s services or companionship, and loss of consortium; and (iii) agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Released Parties from and against any claim brought by or on behalf of the minor arising out of the minor’s attendance at or participation in the Event, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of a Released Party. (d) Each provision of this Section is intended to be given the fullest effect permitted by applicable law, and the unenforceability of any provision as to the minor shall not affect its enforceability as to the parent or legal guardian.
    
    
17. Third-Party Beneficiaries. Each Released Party that is not a party to this Waiver is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Waiver and is entitled to enforce it directly against you as if it were a party. There are no other third-party beneficiaries of this Waiver.
    
    
18. Governing Law; Venue. This Waiver is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to this Waiver or to the Event shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Fulton County, Georgia, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts and waive any objection to venue or to an inconvenient forum.
    
    
19. Severability; Survival. If any provision of this Waiver is held invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to render it enforceable, or if it cannot be so modified, shall be severed, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. Sections 4 through 13, 16, 17, 18 and this Section 19 survive the conclusion of the Event.
    
    
20. Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Waiver, together with the terms of sale applicable to your ticket, constitutes the entire agreement between you and the Released Parties with respect to its subject matter and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings with respect to that subject matter. The version of this Waiver in effect on the date you purchase a ticket or, if later, on the date you enter the Event, governs. No amendment or waiver of any provision is effective unless in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Frances Valentine, LLC.
    
    
21. Electronic Acceptance. You agree that your electronic acceptance of this Waiver, including by checking a box or clicking a button at the time of ticket purchase or registration, constitutes your electronic signature and has the same force and effect as a handwritten signature, and that a record of your acceptance may be retained and relied upon as evidence of your agreement.
