MEMBERSHIP AGREEMENT

Please read this Agreement carefully and be aware that, in consideration for permission to use the Lewes Unleashed Dog
Park, you will be expressly assuming legal liability and waiving legal rights.

1. Dog Park Rules. I understand that I am solely responsible for supervising my dogs and determining whether or
not the use of the dog park is an appropriate activity. I have read and agree to abide by the rules of the dog park as
attached hereto in Exhibit A, as from time to time modified. I understand that breaching the rules of the dog park may
result in revocation of my membership.

2. Vaccinations, etc. I hereby certify that my dogs are licensed and are current with their rabies, distemper,
parvovirus and other vaccinations required by the county or municipality in which my dogs reside and that I will keep the
vaccinations current at all times. My dogs have been spayed or neutered. I understand that providing false information
may result in revocation of my membership. While Bordetella is not required we do recommend it.

3. Personal Use Only. I acknowledge that professional dog walkers, trainers and groomers are not permitted to use
the dog park to conduct their business and that the park may not be utilized for any private gain.

4. Assumption of Risk. I acknowledge that the dog park is self-directed and not continually supervised by a person
affiliated with Lewes Unleashed Association (“LUL”). I recognize that LUL makes no guarantee that all dogs in the dog
park are vaccinated and has no knowledge of the behavior or disposition of dogs using the dog park.

5. Indemnity. I agree to indemnify and hold harmless LUL and the City of Lewes, and each of their officers,
directors, officials, volunteers and employees (the “Indemnitees”) from all losses, claims and liabilities (including
attorneys’ fees and expenses) arising from the personal injury to or death of any person or dog or damage to any
property (including the dog park) resulting directly or indirectly from the use by me, my dog, my guests or my family of
the dog park.

6. Hold Harmless. I hereby agree to waive, release and forever discharge the Indemnitees from any and all claims
for injuries, damages or loss to myself, my guests, family and dogs which we may have or which may accrue arising out
of or connected in any way with the use of the dog park.

7. No Assignment. I agree that my membership in the dog park is not transferable and agree not to give any
information, key card or electronic code providing access to any person other than a member of my immediate family.

By my signature, I agree to the foregoing.

assumes all liability for damages suffered by any person or dog injured by the member’s dogs while at the
park. Members agree to release and hold harmless both LUA and the City of Lewes for any injury to any dog or
person while using this park.

 All users must be registered members to use the dog park. Members must be prepared to show their dogs’
immunization record/vet info as requested. Members must strictly protect the confidentiality of the park’s
electronic access code. Revealing the code to a third party is grounds for automatic forfeiture of membership.

all times.

 Members are responsible to ensure their dogs do not dig holes or cause damage to park plants or property.
