If the Promoter delays completion of the Services to a point where it becomes impossible
or unreasonable for the Service Provider to perform due to an act or omission, then the
Service Provider reserves the right to charge the full Service Fee.

In the unlikely event of the Service Provider being unable to appear for any reason, the Service
Provider reserves the right to fulfil it’s obligations by arranging for a suitable alternative to
appear in its place so that the function can proceed.

The Promoter shall be liable to pay to the Service Provider, on demand, all reasonable costs,
charges or losses sustained or incurred by the Service Provider (including any direct, indirect or
consequential losses, loss of profit and loss of reputation, loss or damage to property and those
arising from injury to or death of any person and loss of opportunity to deploy resources

The Service Provider retains the right to terminate the Agreement and/or cancel any of the
Services provided in the event that the Promoter has failed to satisfy any of their obligations.
Limitation of Liability
The Services may contain loud music and/or strobe lighting. The Service Provider shall not be
liable for any injury resulting from the provision of the Services save that this clause shall not
exclude or limit the Service Provider’s liability for:
• Death or personal injury caused by the Service Provider’s negligence; or
• Fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.
The Service Provider has obtained insurance cover in respect of its own public liability indemnity
for individual claims not exceeding £10,000,000 per claim. The Service Provider’s liability is
therefore limited to £10,000,000 and the Promoter is responsible for making its own
arrangements for the insurance of any excess loss.

breach of this Agreement for any delays or failures in performance of this Agreement, which

forbidden by the Promoter, the Promoter is deemed to have agreed to such photographs and video
