Force Majeure Cancellation Refund and Credit Policy
(“Force Majeure Cancellation Policy”)

Flag Universal, Inc. has implemented a Force Majeure Cancellation Policy.  All Participants must acknowledge and agree to this Force Majeure Cancellation Policy as an express condition precedent to their registration in the current season. Flag Universal, Inc. expends considerable resources, time and effort in preparing for each season and in order to be able to offer a season, this Force Majeure Cancellation Policy is necessary to protect Flag Universal, Inc. as well as to fully inform all Participants of the uncertainty and risks involved in registering for future seasons.

For purposes of the policies herein, a “season” of Flag Universal, Inc. means and includes a “Meet and Greet” and six scheduled games. During season preparation, Flag Universal, Inc. will schedule a makeup game date at the end of the season. Flag Universal, Inc. may choose to modify a released season schedule to play a double header should its fields or availability to play become unavailable for any reason which is also in accordance with Flag Universal, Inc.'s weather policy. A complete season will have been played so long as four games are played and a four-game season shall constitute full and complete performance by Flag Universal, Inc.


Excusable Delays and Force Majeure:

Any delay in the performance by Flag Universal, Inc. of its obligations to Participant under any written agreement shall be excused when such delay in performance is due to any cause or event of any nature whatsoever beyond the reasonable control of Flag Universal, Inc., including without limitation, any act of God; any fire, flood or weather condition; any earthquake; any epidemic or WHO declared pandemic; any act of a public enemy, war, insurrection, riot, explosion, terrorist attack or strike; or any government demand, requirement or instruction (each, a “Force Majeure”).  A delay caused by Force Majeure shall not be deemed a cancellation of the season or termination of this Agreement unless Flag Universal, Inc., in its sole discretion, provides Participant written notice stating otherwise (the “Cancellation Notice”).  The time for performance of Flag Universal, Inc.’s obligations may be amended for the period of delay or inability to perform due to such Force Majeure, as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of Flag Universal, Inc.  If Flag Universal, Inc. provides Participant a Cancellation Notice, the current season will be canceled and subject to the terms below.
