Furthermore, I shall immediately report to VanMoof USA Inc., my insurance company, and the local Police Department any accident, injury or damage arising during my operation of the bicycle. I shall promptly forward to VanMoof USA Inc. all documents, notices and pleadings received by me or on my behalf regarding any claim, lawsuit or other action regarding my use of the bicycle.

- I hereby release, waive and, discharge each of the Indemnified Parties from any and all liability to me, my family members, insurers, heirs, personal representatives and assigns from any and all loss or damage, and any claims or demands therefore, on account of injury to or death of any person or damage to any property, arising out of or in any way connected or related directly or indirectly to my operation or use of the bicycle, whether caused by my negligence or otherwise, and covenant not to sue any of the Indemnified Parties in connection with any such loss, damage, claim or demand. If I do file a lawsuit, I agree to pay any attorney fees, costs or judgments incurred by VanMoof USA Inc. even if VanMoof USA Inc. is found negligent. CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS/ CALIFORNIA CLAIMS: If applicable to me as a California releasor or with respect to any claims that may be enforced in California (collectively a “Releasor”), I, as a Releasor, have been made aware of, and understand, the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542 (“Section 1542”), which provides: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.” As a California Releasor, I expressly, knowingly, and intentionally waive any and all rights, benefits, and protections of Section 1542 and of any other state or federal statute or common law principle limiting the scope of a general release.
