22 Appendix V Non-liability clause - Arbitation Agreement The participants are aware of, understand and fully accept the risks and dangers involved in motor racing. Should a participant be injured during an event, he explicitly declares through his entry for the event that he approves all medical treatment, rescue and transportation to hospital or other emergency facilities. Such measures will be adopted by personnel appointed specifically for this purpose by the promoter, to the best of the personnel s knowledge and following their assessment of the participant s condition. The participants undertake to assume all related costs, provided such costs are not covered by the licence accident insurance or other insurance policies. The participants hereby waive all direct and indirect claims for compensation from OSK, its officials, the promoter and/ or Organizer or the racing circuit owners, from any other person or association linked with the event (including all officials and authorities or bodies who have granted licences for the event), and from other entrants and drivers/ riders, hereinafter referred to as the parties. The participants do so for themselves and their legal successors, and consequently for any insurance company with whom they may have concluded additional policies. In submitting their entries for this event the participants hereby declare that they irrevocably and unconditionally waive all rights, appeals, claims, demands, acts and/or proceedings which they themselves might institute or which might be instituted by third parties acting on their behalf against the parties. The participants do so in connection with injury, loss, damage, costs and/or expenses (including lawyers fees) which they may incur due to an incident or accident as part of the event. In submitting their entries for this event the participants declare irrevocably that they discharge, release and relieve the parties for all time from any liability for such losses, and that they shall guard them against such losses and hold them harmless. In submitting their entries for this event the participants declare that they understand the full significance and repercussion of the present declarations and agreements, that they are entering into such obligations of their own free will, and in doing so irrevocably waive all right of action for damages against the parties, insofar as permissible as Austrian law currently stands. The participants in any case renounce for themselves and their legal successors all claims against the parties, therefore in particular against the OSK, its officials, the promoter and/or Organizer or the racing circuit owners, and against the authorities or bodies who have granted licences for the event, regarding damage, loss, harm or injury of any kind connected with a typical sports risk, in particular any typical and foreseeable damage, loss, harm or injury. This applies also in the event of minor negligence on the part of the parties. Arbitation Agreement a)any dispute arising between the participants and the OSK or its officials, and the promoter and/or Organizer, and between the OSK or its officials and the promoter and/or Organizer, as a result of claims (personal injury, damage to property or financial damage) in connection with the motor-racing event, training sessions or races shall be settled definitely by an arbitration tribunal to the exclusion of the courts of general jurisdiction. b)the arbitration tribunal shall consist of three arbitrators, namely the umpire and two assessors. The umpire shall be a lawyer or former judge and have experience of liability matters in connection with motor racing. c)each party shall appoint an assessor within two weeks of notification of the intent to initiate arbitral proceedings. Should the dispute be referred by several claimants or be levelled at several defendants, the arbitrator shall be appointed by agreement between the joined parties. The assessors shall elect the umpire. Should the assessors be unable to agree on the person of the umpire within two weeks, the umpire shall be appointed by the President of the Vienna Chamber of Lawyers upon application by an assessor, with due regard to clause b). The assessors shall however be free at any time to replace the umpire appointed in this way by another umpire by mutual agreement. d)should a party fail to appoint its assessor within two weeks of receiving the written request from the opposite side, or should several joined parties be unable to agree on an assessor within that period, the assessor shall be appointed by the President of the Vienna Chamber of Lawyers on the motion of the other party. The same shall apply should an assessor withdraw from office and the party concerned not appoint a successor within two weeks. e)should an arbitrator not assume office, refuse to discharge his duties, cause improper delay or become unfit to act, the aforementioned provisions shall apply accordingly for the appointment of a replacement. The arbitrator concerned shall be dismissed at the same time. f)the arbitration tribunal shall in principle be free to conduct its proceedings as it sees fit, with due regard for the subsidiary legal provisions. The tribunal shall sit in Vienna. The arbitration tribunal may also investigate without petition any circumstances which it deems necessary to clarify the facts of the case, and take evidence. g)the arbitration tribunal shall decide by simple majority. The tribunal shall state the full reasons for its award. It shall also decide on cost apportionment for the costs of both the arbitration proceedings and the legal representation. The arbitrators shall be remunerated in accordance with the provisions of the Austrian lawyers scale of charges. h)the arbitration tribunal shall also be entitled to the exclusion of the courts of general jurisdiction to issue injunctions, provided the opposing party is first given an opportunity to express its views. An injunction may also be lifted upon petition in the event of a significant change in circumstances. i) Sports jurisdiction shall remain unaffected by the present Arbitration Agreement. 22 Supplementary regulations
