This ticket (“Ticket”) is a revocable license. By purchasing and/or using Tickets to a USHL (defined below) game, the holder of this Ticket, on behalf of the holder and any accompanying minor, including a minor holding a separate ticket (individually and collectively, “Holder”), agrees that (1) use of such Tickets, and admission to the Arena (defined below), is conditioned upon Holder’s agreement to the terms and conditions set forth below, and (2) Holder will inform any quests, companions or other persons who will be using Tickets purchased by, or received from, Holder that, as Ticket holders themselves, their own use of such Tickets, and admission to the Arena, are also conditioned upon their agreement to the terms and conditions below. Holder further agrees that this Ticket is also subject to any additional terms and conditions established by the USHL, and the Fox Valley Ice Arena, its affiliates and/or related arena grounds (including, without limitation, parking areas and entry gates) (collectively, the “Arena”) at which the event or any surrounding activities (in whole or in part) for which this Ticket is issued (the “Event”) is held (collectively, all such additional terms, “Supplemental Terms”).  Supplemental Terms include any health and safety requirements and other terms set forth by the State of Illinois. By acceptance and/or use of this Ticket and/or entering (or seeking entry into) the Arena, Holder is deemed to have read all such terms and agreed to be bound by them.
Holder acknowledges and agrees that the Tickets are solely for the 2023- 2024 USHL preseason, regular season and playoff games presented by Team and played at the Arena and, for the avoidance of doubt, will not include tickets, or the right to purchase tickets, to any other event or game, including, but not limited to, any USHL event (“League Special Event”) if held in Team’s market or hosted by the USHL at the Arena or otherwise in which Team may participate. Holder acknowledges and agrees that Team and/or USHL may cancel, postpone, reschedule or relocate games or events for any reason (e.g., move a regular season game of Team) from the Arena to an alternate venue for the purposes of playing a League Special Event), as determined in its/their sole discretion, as well as to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, any aspect of the rules, operations and presentations of USHL games and events (“Preemption”).
If any game or Event for which Tickets have been sold to Holder is not played or presented in the Arena for any reason, including, but not limited to, Preemption, such Event will in no way be deemed, argued or construed to be a breach by Team of any terms, conditions, agreement or any other duties or obligations in connection with the sale and use of these Tickets and, in such event, Holder’s sole remedy will be a pro-rata account credit or refund equal to the price paid to Team for these Tickets, and Holder hereby waives and releases any and all claims it may have against Team and/or the USHL regarding such game(s) or Event not played or presented at the Arena.
HOLDER, ARENA, AND USHL AGREE THAT ALL DISPUTES ARISING FROM THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS WILL BE LITIGATED IN COURT OR ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO LITIGATE IN COURT OR ARBITRATE ANY CLAIM AS A CLASS ACTION, REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, OR CLASS ARBITRATION; AND, IF THE HOLDER DOES NOT CONSENT TO THIS CLAUSE, THE HOLDER MUST IMMEDIATELY LEAVE OR NOT ENTER THE ARENA.
