ROUTE 66 RELAY
WAIVER 2 OF 3: VEHICLE, DRIVER AND SUPPORT CREW AGREEMENT

READ THIS CAREFULLY. YOUR TEAM'S VEHICLE AND YOUR TEAM'S DRIVER ARE YOUR RESPONSIBILITY AND YOURS ALONE. THIS AGREEMENT IS SEPARATE FROM, AND IN ADDITION TO, THE RELEASE OF LIABILITY YOU HAVE ALREADY ACCEPTED.

This Agreement applies to you whether you are a runner, a team captain, a designated driver, or support crew, because every participant in a relay of this format will at some point ride in, load, unload, or stand beside a team vehicle on an active roadway.

1. THE ORGANIZER PROVIDES NO VEHICLES AND CONTROLS NO DRIVERS

THE ORGANIZER DOES NOT SUPPLY, SELECT, RENT, INSPECT, MAINTAIN, FUEL, INSURE, OPERATE OR CONTROL ANY TEAM VEHICLE.

YOUR TEAM'S DRIVER IS THE AGENT OF YOUR TEAM AND IS NOT, AND SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO BE, AN AGENT, EMPLOYEE, CONTRACTOR, SERVANT OR REPRESENTATIVE OF THE ORGANIZER FOR ANY PURPOSE.

The Organizer exercises no control whatsoever over the manner in which any team vehicle is operated, over who drives it, over its mechanical condition, or over whether it is insured. The Organizer does not screen, vet, background-check, license-check or evaluate any driver.

YOU EXPRESSLY ASSUME THE RISK OF NEGLIGENT, RECKLESS, DISTRACTED, DROWSY OR IMPAIRED OPERATION OF ANY TEAM VEHICLE, INCLUDING YOUR OWN TEAM'S VEHICLE AND ANY OTHER TEAM'S VEHICLE, AND YOU RELEASE THE RELEASED PARTIES (AS DEFINED IN WAIVER 1) FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM IT, INCLUDING CLAIMS CAUSED IN WHOLE OR IN PART BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE RELEASED PARTIES.

2. DRIVER REQUIREMENTS

Every person who operates a team vehicle in connection with the Event must:

(a) Be at least TWENTY-ONE (21) YEARS OF AGE;

(b) Hold a valid, current, unrestricted and unsuspended driver's license;

(c) Be covered by automobile liability insurance meeting or exceeding the minimum limits required by Oklahoma law, with the vehicle owner's policy primary;

(d) BE FULLY RESTED AND ALERT AT THE TIME OF DRIVING. No person may drive a team vehicle while fatigued, drowsy or sleep-deprived. You acknowledge that this Event spans more than twenty-four (24) hours and that DROWSY DRIVING IS ONE OF THE MOST SERIOUS AND FORESEEABLE DANGERS OF THIS FORMAT;

(e) Be entirely free of alcohol, cannabis (including medical marijuana lawful under Oklahoma law), illegal drugs and impairing medications; and

(f) Comply with all traffic laws, speed limits, parking restrictions, and the instructions of law enforcement, course marshals and volunteers.

By accepting this Agreement you confirm that your team will not permit any person who fails to meet every one of these requirements to operate its vehicle at any time during the Event.

3. MANDATORY AWAKE SAFETY OFFICER

EVERY TEAM VEHICLE MUST AT ALL TIMES WHILE IN MOTION ON THE COURSE CARRY A DESIGNATED SAFETY OFFICER / NAVIGATOR WHO IS AWAKE AND ALERT, SEATED IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT.

THE SAFETY OFFICER MAY NOT BE THE DRIVER.

This is a mandatory contractual obligation, not a recommendation. A team found operating without an awake safety officer may be penalized, disqualified and removed from the course without refund.

4. VEHICLE RULES

ONE VEHICLE. Each team may operate ONE (1) Event vehicle on the course at a time. Team vehicle identification must be displayed clearly and visibly at all times; entry into exchange zones depends on it.

PROHIBITED VEHICLES. Motorhomes, RVs, campers, trailers, buses and limousines are PROHIBITED on the course and at all exchange zones, for teams and spectators alike. Vehicles exceeding 6'6" in width or 20' in length are prohibited.

PARKING AND STOPPING. Vehicles must park only in designated areas, must pull completely off the roadway, must remain to the right of the white fog line, and MUST NOT PARK ON THE SAME SIDE OF THE ROAD WITHIN 500 FEET BEFORE OR AFTER ANY EXCHANGE CHUTE. Vehicles must never block or impede traffic. Runners may be dropped off and picked up ONLY at designated exchange zones.

NO FOLLOWING OR ILLUMINATING RUNNERS. Team vehicles MAY NOT follow behind, pace, shadow, or use headlights to illuminate any runner on any leg. This practice is dangerous to the runner, to traffic and to other participants, and is grounds for IMMEDIATE DISQUALIFICATION.

NO-SUPPORT LEGS. On legs designated in the Race Bible as no-van-support legs, team vehicles may not stop, park or provide any support at any point and must proceed directly to the next exchange zone.

OPEN CONTAINERS. NO OPEN CONTAINER OF ALCOHOL MAY BE PRESENT IN ANY TEAM VEHICLE AT ANY TIME, consistent with Oklahoma law. Violation results in immediate disqualification and removal of the team from the course, and may result in referral to law enforcement.

SUPPORT CREW ON FOOT. Any team member or support crew member crossing a roadway must do so using an orange crossing flag, day or night, must cross at a crosswalk where one is visible, and must not cross roads with medians. Roads with three or more total lanes must be crossed at a crosswalk. Support crew outside a vehicle on or near the roadway must wear a reflective vest at all times, day or night.

5. TEAM AND PARTICIPANT INDEMNITY FOR VEHICLE OPERATION

YOU AND YOUR TEAM AGREE TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS THE RELEASED PARTIES FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, DAMAGES, LOSSES, LIABILITIES, JUDGMENTS, SETTLEMENTS, COSTS AND EXPENSES — INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS' FEES, EXPERT FEES AND COSTS OF DEFENSE — ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THE OWNERSHIP, RENTAL, MAINTENANCE, LOADING, UNLOADING, PARKING OR OPERATION OF ANY TEAM VEHICLE, INCLUDING:

(a) ANY CLAIM BROUGHT BY YOU OR ON YOUR BEHALF, INCLUDING BY YOUR HEIRS, ESTATE, PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVE OR STATUTORY WRONGFUL-DEATH BENEFICIARIES;

(b) ANY CLAIM BROUGHT BY A PASSENGER, ANOTHER PARTICIPANT, ANOTHER MOTORIST, A PEDESTRIAN, A CYCLIST, A BYSTANDER, A VOLUNTEER, A RESIDENT OR A PROPERTY OWNER; AND

(c) ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF ANY TEAM DRIVER.

THIS INDEMNITY APPLIES REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE CLAIM IS ALSO CAUSED IN WHOLE OR IN PART BY THE ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF A RELEASED PARTY, but does not extend to a Released Party's own gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud or violation of law.

6. JOINT AND SEVERAL TEAM RESPONSIBILITY

Each team is JOINTLY AND SEVERALLY RESPONSIBLE for the acts and omissions of its roster members, drivers, support crew and guests, including compliance with this Agreement, the Terms and Conditions, the Race Bible and all applicable laws, and including any damage to property caused by any of them.

7. GENERAL

Capitalized terms not defined here have the meanings given in Waiver 1 of 3 and in the Terms and Conditions published at route66relayrace.com, which are incorporated into this Agreement by reference.

If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, void or unenforceable in whole or in part, that provision shall be MODIFIED AND REFORMED to the minimum extent necessary to render it valid and enforceable and enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law; if it cannot be so reformed, it shall be severed. In every case the remainder shall continue in full force and effect.

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Oklahoma. Dispute resolution is governed by Waiver 3 of 3.

Each Released Party who is not a party to this Agreement is an intended third-party beneficiary of it and may enforce it directly. This Agreement survives the Event.

WAIVER 3 OF 3: DISPUTE RESOLUTION AGREEMENT — BINDING ARBITRATION, CLASS ACTION WAIVER AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER

READ THIS CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS HOW DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND THE ORGANIZER ARE RESOLVED. IT REQUIRES INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION INSTEAD OF A COURT TRIAL OR A CLASS ACTION, AND IT WAIVES YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY. YOU MAY OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION WITHIN 30 DAYS — SEE SECTION 7.

This Agreement is separate from, and in addition to, the Release of Liability (Waiver 1) and the Vehicle, Driver and Support Crew Agreement (Waiver 2). Capitalized terms not defined here have the meanings given in those documents and in the Terms and Conditions published at route66relayrace.com, which are incorporated by reference.

1. GOVERNING LAW

This Agreement, the Terms and Conditions, Waiver 1, Waiver 2, and any dispute arising out of or relating to any of them or to the Event, are governed by the laws of the STATE OF OKLAHOMA, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles.

You agree that Oklahoma has a substantial relationship to this Agreement because the Event is conducted entirely within the State of Oklahoma.

2. INFORMAL RESOLUTION FIRST

Before commencing arbitration, you agree to notify the Organizer in writing at route66relayrace@gmail.com, describing the dispute and the relief sought, and to negotiate in good faith for THIRTY (30) DAYS.

3. BINDING ARBITRATION

ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM OR CONTROVERSY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, ANY WAIVER, YOUR REGISTRATION, THE EVENT, OR YOUR PARTICIPATION — INCLUDING CLAIMS IN CONTRACT, TORT, STATUTE AND CONSUMER PROTECTION LAW, AND EXPRESSLY INCLUDING CLAIMS FOR PERSONAL INJURY, BODILY INJURY AND WRONGFUL DEATH — SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY BY FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION.

The arbitration shall be administered by the AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (AAA) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and, where applicable, its Consumer Arbitration Rules, before a single arbitrator.

SEAT AND HEARINGS. The seat of arbitration is OKLAHOMA COUNTY, OKLAHOMA. HEARINGS MAY BE CONDUCTED BY VIDEOCONFERENCE, TELEPHONE, OR ON DOCUMENTS ONLY at the election of either party or the arbitrator, so that neither party is required to travel.

AUTHORITY. The arbitrator has authority to determine arbitrability and to award any relief available in a court of law, but MAY NOT AWARD RELIEF ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. The award is final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

GOVERNING ARBITRATION LAW. This arbitration agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., and, to the extent applicable, the Oklahoma Uniform Arbitration Act, 12 O.S. § 1851 et seq.

4. CLASS ACTION WAIVER

YOU AND THE ORGANIZER AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF, CLASS MEMBER OR REPRESENTATIVE IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN THE CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE PERSON.

If this Section 4 is found unenforceable as to any claim, that claim — and only that claim — shall be severed and brought in court, and the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force.

5. JURY TRIAL WAIVER

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND THE ORGANIZER EACH KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, ANY WAIVER, OR THE EVENT.

THIS WAIVER APPLIES INDEPENDENTLY OF, AND SURVIVES, ANY FINDING THAT THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT IN SECTION 3 IS UNENFORCEABLE.

6. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND TIME TO BRING CLAIMS

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE RELEASED PARTIES TO YOU FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE EVENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF ENTRY FEES YOU ACTUALLY PAID TO THE ORGANIZER.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE RELEASED PARTIES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST INCOME, LOST EARNING CAPACITY, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF GOODWILL, LOSS OF ENJOYMENT, OR TRAVEL, LODGING, VEHICLE RENTAL OR OTHER OUT-OF-POCKET EXPENSES, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY.

ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO REGISTRATION, FEES, REFUNDS, BILLING, MARKETING, THE WEBSITE, DATA OR RESULTS MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CLAIM ACCRUES OR IT IS PERMANENTLY BARRED. This one-year limit does NOT apply to claims for bodily injury, wrongful death or property damage, which remain governed by the applicable statute of limitations.

Nothing in this Section limits liability for gross negligence, willful or wanton misconduct, fraud or violation of law, or limits any liability that may not be limited under applicable law.

7. YOUR RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION — 30 DAYS

YOU MAY OPT OUT OF SECTIONS 3 AND 4 (ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER) BY SENDING WRITTEN NOTICE TO route66relayrace@gmail.com WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER YOU FIRST ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT.

Your notice must include your full printed name, mailing address, the email address used at registration, and the words "REJECT ARBITRATION."

This opt-out provision must be STRICTLY COMPLIED WITH; the doctrine of substantial compliance does not apply.

OPTING OUT DOES NOT AFFECT ANY OTHER PROVISION. The jury trial waiver in Section 5, the limitation of liability in Section 6, the release of liability in Waiver 1, and the indemnity obligations in Waivers 1 and 2 all remain fully binding on you.

If you opt out, disputes will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in OKLAHOMA COUNTY, OKLAHOMA. You consent to the personal jurisdiction of and venue in those courts and waive any objection based on inconvenient forum.

8. EXCEPTIONS

Either party may bring an individual action in small claims court. Either party may seek temporary or permanent injunctive or other equitable relief in the courts of Oklahoma County, Oklahoma, to protect intellectual property or to prevent irreparable harm, without waiving this Agreement.

9. GENERAL

If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, void or unenforceable in whole or in part, that provision shall be MODIFIED AND REFORMED to the minimum extent necessary to render it valid and enforceable and enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law; if it cannot be so reformed, it shall be severed. In every case the remainder shall continue in full force and effect.

Each Released Party who is not a party to this Agreement is an intended third-party beneficiary of it and may enforce it directly.

THIS AGREEMENT SURVIVES the completion, cancellation or termination of the Event and of your registration.

10. ACKNOWLEDGMENT

I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS DISPUTE RESOLUTION AGREEMENT.

I UNDERSTAND THAT I AM AGREEING TO RESOLVE DISPUTES — INCLUDING CLAIMS FOR PERSONAL INJURY AND WRONGFUL DEATH — THROUGH BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT.

I UNDERSTAND THAT I AM GIVING UP MY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AND MY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY.

I UNDERSTAND THAT I MAY OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION WITHIN 30 DAYS BY FOLLOWING THE PROCEDURE IN SECTION 7, AND THAT OPTING OUT DOES NOT RELEASE ME FROM THE OTHER OBLIGATIONS I HAVE ACCEPTED.

I ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT FREELY, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY.

You authorize the Organizer, Event medical personnel, emergency medical services, and any physician or hospital to provide you with such first aid, emergency medical treatment, evaluation, transport and evacuation as they deem advisable if you are injured, ill or unable to consent.

The Organizer will not be liable for any failure, delay, modification or cancellation caused by any event beyond its reasonable control, including severe or extreme weather (including ice, sleet, snow, freezing rain, dangerous wind chill, flooding, thunderstorm, tornado or severe-storm warning); wildfire; poor air quality; act of God; epidemic, pandemic, quarantine, public health emergency or order; war, terrorism, civil unrest, riot or credible threat; loss, denial or revocation of any permit or of law-enforcement or traffic-control support; road or bridge closure or action by the Oklahoma Department of Transportation, any county or any municipality; withdrawal of any landowner's permission; loss of a venue or exchange zone; unavailability of medical or EMS support; act or order of any governmental authority; and any other cause beyond the Organizer's reasonable control.

IF THE EVENT IS CANCELLED, POSTPONED, SHORTENED, MODIFIED OR CONVERTED FOR ANY REASON, THE ORGANIZER HAS NO OBLIGATION AND NO LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY EXPENSE YOU INCUR, INCLUDING AIRFARE, HOTEL, LODGING, VAN OR VEHICLE RENTAL, FUEL, MEALS, GEAR, EQUIPMENT, TRAINING COSTS, LOST WAGES OR TIME OFF WORK. YOU ARE STRONGLY ENCOURAGED TO PURCHASE TRAVEL INSURANCE.

9. REFUNDS

REFUNDS ARE GOVERNED EXCLUSIVELY BY THE ORGANIZER'S REFUND POLICY, PUBLISHED AT ROUTE66RELAYRACE.COM/REFUND-POLICY, WHICH YOU HAVE READ AND ACCEPT IN FULL. In summary, and subject in all respects to that policy: deposits are fully refundable through September 4, 2026; a fifty percent (50%) refund of total amounts paid is available from September 5, 2026 through October 30, 2026; and NO REFUNDS OF ANY KIND ARE AVAILABLE AFTER OCTOBER 30, 2026. Payment processing and platform service fees are non-refundable in all circumstances.

NO REFUND, CREDIT, TRANSFER OR DEFERRAL WILL BE ISSUED where you are disqualified, expelled, removed from the course, withdraw, fail to start, fail to finish, miss a cut-off time, or are removed for safety reasons or for any violation of the rules. Entry fees are non-refundable even where the Event is cancelled due to circumstances beyond the Organizer's control, except as the Refund Policy expressly provides.

Bib numbers, timing devices and roster positions are personal to you and are NOT TRANSFERABLE except as the Refund Policy expressly permits and the Organizer approves in writing.

10. RULES, CONDUCT AND REMOVAL

You agree to comply at all times with the Race Bible, all Event rules, all instructions of Event officials, course marshals, volunteers and law enforcement, and all applicable laws.

YOU MUST RUN ON THE LEFT SHOULDER OF THE ROADWAY, FACING ONCOMING TRAFFIC, and use sidewalks or designated paths where available, unless course signage, a course marshal or law enforcement directs otherwise. This requirement reflects Oklahoma law, 47 O.S. § 11-506.

YOU DO NOT HAVE EXCLUSIVE USE OF ANY ROADWAY. You must obey all traffic laws and signals at all times and yield to all vehicles.

During official night hours you must wear a reflective vest with reflective material on the front, back and shoulders; a headlamp or handheld light; and a blinking LED tail light. A runner without required gear will not be permitted on course.

The Organizer may disqualify or remove any participant or team at any time, with or without a rule violation, in its sole and unreviewable discretion, without refund and without any right of appeal.

11. GENERAL

If any provision of this Waiver is held invalid, void or unenforceable in whole or in part, that provision shall be MODIFIED AND REFORMED to the minimum extent necessary to render it valid and enforceable and enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law; if it cannot be so reformed, it shall be severed. In every case the remainder of this Waiver shall continue in full force and effect.

This Waiver is governed by the laws of the State of Oklahoma. Dispute resolution is governed by Waiver 3 of 3 (Dispute Resolution Agreement).

Each Released Party who is not a party to this Waiver is an intended third-party beneficiary of it and may enforce it directly.

This Waiver survives the Event and any cancellation, modification or postponement of it.
