The foregoing rights extend to all media, in all forms and versions, now known and hereafter devised, throughout the universe and in perpetuity and in any ancillary exploitation thereof, including in connection with publicity and advertising.

I understand that all rights in and to the recordings made about my participation, including the negatives, film, video, outtakes, sounds, and the images contained therein, shall be Orthodox Union’s sole and absolute property.


• I release and forever discharge the OU Producers from all causes of action, suits, debts, damages (including injury to or death of any person or persons or injury to or damage to property), claims, judgments, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and liability of any type or kind whatsoever (collectively and individually “Claims”) arising from or in connection with: (a) my participation in events; and (b) the use or publication of any Recordings of me made in connection with my participation in events. I waive any right of privacy associated with my likeness, appearance, biographical information, and name. I waive any right to compensation related to the use of my Likeness. I hold harmless and release and forever discharge Orthodox Union from all claims which I now have or may hereafter have for invasion of privacy, defamation, or any other cause of action, in connection with my Likeness or by reason of this Media Release.

To the extent that any intellectual property rights arising from the use of my Likeness in the Recordings may not vest in Orthodox Union, I hereby transfer to Orthodox Union the entire rights, title, and interest in and to the same, throughout the universe and in perpetuity, and all grants, permissions, and consents enumerated in this Media Release.
