RELEASE OF LIABILITY AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK

I understand that I am required to read and carefully sign a "Release of Liability and Assumption of Risk" form before Antares Field Guide Training Centre can accept a confirmation of my reservation. I accept that Antares Field Guide Training Centre will assist or advise me, to the best of their ability, with pertinent information regarding passports, visas and international health requirements, but it is my responsibility to ensure that passports, visas, travel permits, health certificates, inoculations, or other documents required are obtained, current and in order. Any advice or recommendation that Antares Field Guide Training Centre may give or make regarding any of the aforesaid, is given or made without prejudice and subject to the indemnity below. I am also aware that Antares Field Guide Training Centre is located in a malaria area for which the taking of anti-malaria precautions is highly recommended.

Antares Field Guide Training Centre advises me and encourages me to obtain at least the following types of insurance which I understand are commercially available:

* Accidental Death and Disability. * Major medical. * Trip cancellation.
