EDGE VENTURES PARENT / GUARDIAN TERMS & CONDITIONS

Applicable to:

Schedule A : EDGE Ventures X Bear Grylls Survival Academy (Schedule A)

Schedule B : EDGE Leadership Academy (Schedule B)

These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern the enrolment of a child and/or participant (the “Student”) in the programmes offered by EDGE Future Leaders Investment LLC (“EDGE”) and described in the Schedules to these Terms, including the EDGE Ventures x Bear Grylls Survival Academy and the EDGE Leadership Academy (each a “Programme”).

By enrolling a Student in a Programme, , the parent or legal guardian (“you” or “Parent/Guardian”) agrees to be bound by these Terms and Conditions on their own behalf and on behalf of the Student.

Programme-Specific Terms. Part A applies to all Programmes. Each Programme also has its own Schedule setting out the terms that apply specifically to that Programme: Schedule A applies to the Survival Academy and Schedule B applies to the Leadership Academy. Part A applies together with the applicable Schedule for the Programme in which the Student is enrolled. Where there is any conflict or inconsistency between Part A and an applicable Schedule, the Schedule shall prevail in respect of that Programme.

PART A - GENERAL TERMS (ALL PROGRAMMES)

1. Participation and Higher-Risk Activities

• Participation in a Programme may involve physical, outdoor, adventure-based or other activities which carry inherent risks that cannot be entirely eliminated, even where appropriate supervision, instruction, equipment and safety procedures are in place. The nature and level of risk will vary depending on the relevant Programme and activity.

• Certain activities may involve an increased degree of physical or other risk, including activities involving heights, harnesses, water, climbing, outdoor survival activities or such other activities as EDGE may identify as requiring specific consent (each a “Higher-Risk Activity”).

• A Student shall not participate in a Higher-Risk Activity unless the Parent/Guardian has been provided with reasonable information regarding the nature of the activity and any material participation requirements and has provided separate express consent to the Student’s participation in that activity. EDGE may require such consent through the booking process, an activity-specific consent form or such other written or electronic means as EDGE reasonably determines.

• By consenting to a Student’s participation in a Higher-Risk Activity, the Parent/Guardian acknowledges that:

1. the activity carries inherent risks which cannot be entirely eliminated;

2. the Student must comply with all reasonable safety instructions, briefings and participation requirements communicated by EDGE, the School, instructors or any relevant third-party activity provider;

3. the Parent/Guardian must disclose any medical condition, injury, allergy, medication, disability or other circumstance which may reasonably affect the Student’s safe participation and must update that information if circumstances change; and

4. EDGE, the School, an instructor or a relevant third-party provider may prevent, suspend or discontinue the Student’s participation where reasonably considered necessary for the Student’s safety or the safety of others.

• EDGE may impose additional age, height, weight, swimming ability, fitness, medical clearance, competence, clothing, equipment or other participation requirements for a Higher-Risk Activity where reasonably necessary for safety or required by the relevant facility, activity provider, insurer or Applicable Law.

• Nothing in this Section constitutes a waiver of, or excludes or limits, any liability or right that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

2. Enrolment and Registration

• Enrolment is via the applicable EDGE booking channel and relates to the school at which the relevant Programme is delivered (the “School”).

• A Student's place does not automatically carry forward between terms, except that a Student enrolled for a full academic year has their place reserved for the following term without needing to re-book, subject to fees being paid in line with Section 4.

• For Students under 18, a Parent/Guardian must complete registration and provide the consents set out in this document before the Student's first session.

• Enrolment is confirmed only on receipt of full payment (or an approved instalment arrangement) via the relevant payment channel.

• EDGE and the School reserve the right to refuse, limit, or defer enrolment where reasonably necessary, including on the grounds of capacity, tier/age suitability, safety or the medical and fitness declaration in Section 3.

• Students may join a Programme after a term has started and EDGE will work with a mid-term joiner where reasonably possible to help them catch up on missed content, but no guarantees can be made where completion of sections of learning or external certificates depends on third parties. Enquiries about mid-term joining should be made directly to EDGE using the contact details in Section 19 first.

3. Medical History, Fitness and Emergency Authorisation

• Parents/Guardians must disclose, at the point of booking, any medical conditions, allergies, injuries, medication, or mobility considerations relevant to the Student's safe participation.

• Each Programme may carry its own additional fitness, competence, or health requirements (for example swim competence for water-based modules, or fitness for height/harness-based activity). These are set out in the relevant Schedule and must be confirmed before the Student takes part in the affected activity.

• Participation in the Programmes involves physical activity that carries inherent risk that cannot be entirely removed by instructor supervision and safety protocols. The Parent/Guardian confirms, to the best of their knowledge and having made the disclosures required under this Section, that the Student is physically fit to participate in the relevant Programme activities.

• An inaccurate or incomplete declaration under this Section may result in the Student's suspension or removal from the Programme where reasonably necessary for the Student’s safety. Anyrefund or credit in those circumstances will be determined in accordance with Sections 4 and 15 and applicable law.

• EDGE, the School, or a delivery partner may require written medical clearance before a Student is permitted to (re)join a session following illness, injury, or a flagged medical condition.

• Where the Student withdraws on medical grounds, the Parent/Guardian shall provide a valid medical certificate by email. Any refund or credit will be determined in accordance with Section 15, except where otherwise required by applicable law.

• In the event of a medical emergency during a session, the Parent/Guardian authorises EDGE, the School, and the delivering instructors to seek emergency medical treatment and/or ambulance transport for the Student, and to act on the Parent/Guardian's behalf where they cannot reasonably be contacted in time, with reasonable costs incurred to be reimbursed by the Parent/Guardian.

4. Fees and Payment

Payment Terms

• Fees are payable in advance of each term or, for a Programme delivered as a single event, in full at the point of booking, unless otherwise agreed in writing under an approved instalment plan.

• Late payment may result in temporary suspension of the Student's place pending settlement.

• Any equipment, kit, offsite module costs, VAT or other mandatory charges not included in the standard fee will be clearly disclosed before payment and charged separately, as applicable.

• EDGE reserves the right to revise fees for future terms or future events with 20 days' prior notice. Fees already confirmed for a current term or a booked event will not be revised.

• All invoices and billing information are issued electronically.

• By enrolling or booking, you acknowledge that all scheduled instalments become due in accordance with the agreed payment schedule, irrespective of attendance, except where otherwise required by law or expressly agreed in writing by EDGE. Nothing in these Terms prevents a Parent/Guardian from raising a bona fide payment dispute or exercising any rights available under applicable law or the relevant payment-card rules. Where a chargeback is obtained in respect of a valid and properly authorised payment without a valid basis, the contractual debt remains outstanding and EDGE reserves the right to recover the balance together with reasonable administration, legal and recovery costs, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Registration Fees

• A non-refundable registration fee of AED 150 applies per Student enrolment, across all Survival Academy and Leadership Academy enrolment routes. Holiday camps and pop ups (e.g fast track survival) that do not issue kit and equipment such as fast track survival do not require registration fees. Leadership premium weeks do not require a registration fee as this is included in the ticket price.

• The platform caps the registration fee at AED 300 per family per year

Refunds — Recurring and Termly Programmes

Applies to a Programme billed and delivered across multiple sessions in a term — for example School-delivered sessions, after-school modules, and Hub-Club.

• A Parent/Guardian may withdraw a Student at any time. Fees paid for the current term are refundable on a pro-rata basis up to the end of the third session of that term; after the third session, fees already paid are non-refundable, save at EDGE's discretion in exceptional circumstances or where otherwise required by applicable law.

• No refunds are issued for missed sessions or non-attendance while a Student remains enrolled.

• If, after registration, a Student is unable to attend because of a scheduling conflict with another activity, no refund or credit will be due solely for that reason. EDGE will use reasonable endeavours to offer a make-up session where reasonably practicable.

Refunds — Single-Event and Pop-Up Programmes

Applies to a Programme delivered as a single booked event rather than across a term — for example the Leadership Academy 5-day intensive or a Fast Track Survival pop-up.

• A refund request may be made up to 14 days after payment or up to 14 days before the event start date, whichever is earlier; after that point fees already paid are non-refundable, save at EDGE's discretion in exceptional circumstances (for example a medical withdrawal under Section 3) or where otherwise required by applicable law. Where EDGE agrees a credit in place of a refund, that credit may only be used against a future EDGE Programme.

Cancellation, Delay or Change by EDGE

• Where a session or event is cancelled by EDGE, the School, or the delivering instructor or partner, EDGE will offer a make-up session, an alternative date, or a credit. If a reasonable replacement cannot be provided within a reasonable period, EDGE will offer a refund for the affected session or event, or such other remedy as may be required by applicable law.

• In the event of force majeure or venue closure, sessions or events may be rescheduled or, where appropriate, delivered in an alternative format without fee adjustment. Where an affected session or event cannot reasonably be rescheduled or replaced, EDGE will offer a credit or refund to the extent required by applicable law.

• EDGE is not responsible for non-payment or delays by third-party organisers, or for cancellations by external partners.

Discounts and Promotional Codes

• Discount and promotional codes must be applied at the time of booking and before payment is completed. No refunds, credits, price adjustments, or retroactive discounts will be provided where a code was not applied at the time of registration and payment.

Refund Process

• Refund requests must be submitted in writing to EDGE using the contact details in Section 19, and will be reviewed and, where approved or required by applicable law, processed within a reasonable period. EDGE will notify the Parent/Guardian of the outcome.

Breach and Recovery

• Where a Parent/Guardian materially breaches these Terms, EDGE may seek to recover reasonable legal or recovery costs actually and necessarily incurred as a direct result of that breach, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

5. Conduct and Behaviour Policy

• Respectful, safe behaviour toward instructors, staff, and fellow Students is mandatory. Bullying, harassment, or unsafe conduct is strictly prohibited.

• EDGE operates a conduct policy under which a Student who seriously or repeatedly breaches safety or behavioural expectations may be suspended or removed from the Programme. Where removal results from the Student’s serious or repeated breach, fees already paid will be non-refundable except where otherwise required by applicable law.

• EDGE and the School retain final decision-making authority on suspension, removal, tier progression, and re-admission.

6. Attendance and Session Changes

• Regular attendance is expected to support progress towards accreditations and awards. EDGE and the School will use reasonable endeavours to help a Student catch up on missed content, but missed sessions are not guaranteed to be rescheduled.

• EDGE reserves the right to change instructors, merge or cancel sessions, and adjust, relocate, or postpone outdoor or off-site sessions where reasonably necessary for safety, including heat, sandstorm, or air-quality conditions.

• In the event of force majeure or venue closure, sessions may be rescheduled or, where appropriate, delivered in an alternative format without fee adjustment. Where an affected session cannot reasonably be rescheduled or replaced, EDGE will offer a credit or refund for that sessions to the extent required by applicable law.

7. Equipment and Kit

• Students must follow EDGE's dress and uniform guidelines and wear any issued EDGE clothing when required.

• Durable programme equipment is provided by EDGE/School for the duration of the Programme and remains EDGE/School property.

• Students are expected to bring any personal kit items specified in the joining instructions for their Programme and tier.

• Students may be required to purchase official EDGE equipment or consumables for expeditions, intensives, or activities outside the standard school timetable; this will be clearly communicated in advance.

8. Liability Disclaimer

• Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability to the extent that it cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for fraud or wilful misconduct and any liability for death or personal injury that cannot lawfully be excluded. Nothing in these Terms affects any mandatory rights or remedies available to a consumer under applicable UAE law.

• The Programmes involve physically active elements, some outdoors and some off-site. Participation is undertaken with appropriate instructor supervision and safety protocol, but inherent risk cannot be entirely eliminated.

• To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, EDGE, the School, and delivering instructors are not liable for loss of or damage to personal belongings, except to the extent directly caused by their negligence or breach, or for cancellations and disruptions beyond their reasonable control (including government restrictions, venue issues, or weather). EDGE will also not be responsible for any loss, injury or disruption to the extent caused by a Student's failure to follow reasonable safety instructions or a Parent/Guardian's failure to disclose information required under Section 3.

• Where an element of a Programme is delivered at, or by, a third-party facility or provider, that facility or provider is responsible for its own premises, equipment, qualified staff, and safety protocols under its own insurance, as further described in the relevant Schedule. Nothing in this paragraph excludes EDGE’s own obligations under these Terms or applicable law.

9. Insurance

• EDGE maintains public liability and personal accident insurance in connection with the Programmes, subject to the terms, limis and exclusions of the applicable policies.

• This insurance does not replace the Parent/Guardian's own health or medical insurance for the Student, which remains the Parent/Guardian's responsibility.

• Details of EDGE's insurance cover are available on request by contacting EDGE using the details in Section 19.

10. Safeguarding and Child Protection

• EDGE is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all Students in accordance with UAE Federal Law No. 3 of 2016 Concerning Child Rights (‘Wadeema's Law’).

• All instructors and third party delivery partners engaged by EDGE in delivering a Programme are required to comply with EDGE's Child Protection and Safeguarding Policy, a copy of which is available on request. School staff remain subject to the School’s applicable safeguarding and child protection policies and applicable law.

• Any safeguarding concern relating to a Student should be raised immediately using the contact details in Section 19, or directly with the School's own child protection lead.

11. Photography, Filming and Brand Consent

• EDGE and the School may photograph or film sessions where reasonably necessary for safeguarding, incident management, quality assurance or internal record-keeping purposes, in accordance with applicable law and EDGE's Privacy Notice. Such images or recordings will not be used for marketing without the relevant consent and will be retained only for as long as reasonably necessary in accordance with the applicable retention requirements.

• Separately, Parents/Guardians are asked to give explicit consent (Yes/No) at the point of booking for their child's image to be used in EDGE and School marketing. Marketing consent may be withdrawn prospectively by contacting EDGE using the details in Section 19.

12. Intellectual Property

• The curriculum, EDGE branding, and the names, marks, and materials of EDGE's programme partners (including the Bear Grylls / BGSA marks and as applicable to the relevant Programmes/Academy) remain the property of their respective owners.

• Students and parents may not reproduce, distribute, or use materials for commercial purposes without consent.

13. Record Keeping and Data

• EDGE is a data controller in respect of the personal data it collects and processes in connection with enrolment, attendance, assessment, medical declarations and consents for the Programmes. The School and third-party delivery partners may also process personal data as processors or independent controllers depending on their role, as further described in EDGE's Privacy Notice.

• Data necessary for safe delivery (e.g. medical declarations, attendance) is shared with delivering instructors, the School, and any third-party delivery partner on a need-to-know basis.

• Payment details are processed securely through the applicable payment provider. EDGE does not itself store full payment-card details and personal data is shared with payment and other service providers only as reasonably necessary for the relevant purposes described in EDGE’s Privacy Notice.

• Personal data, including health and medical information, is processed in accordance with UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on the Protection of Personal Data and EDGE’s Privacy Notice, available on EDGE’s website. Subject to applicable law, Parents/Guardians may exercise applicable data-protection rights, including requesting access to, or correction of, and where applicable, deletion of their and the Student's personal data by contacting EDGE using the details in Section 19. Records are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for Programme delivery, safeguarding, legal orregulatory requirements and the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

14. Complaints and Grievance Procedure

• Parents/Guardians with a concern about a Programme are encouraged to raise it in the first instance with the delivering instructor.

• Where a concern is not resolved informally, a Parent/Guardian may submit a written complaint to EDGE using the contact details in Section 19. EDGE will aim to acknowledge a written complaint within 5 working days and provide a substantive response within 15 working days.

15. Termination and Disciplinary Action

• A Parent/Guardian may withdraw a Student from a Programme at any time. Refunds on withdrawal are handled in accordance with Section 4.

• EDGE reserves the right to suspend or terminate a Student's enrolment for non-payment, serious or repeated misconduct, a material breach of these Terms, or where reasonably necessary, on medical/fitness grounds under Section 3 to protect the Student or others. No refund will be due where termination results from non-payment, serious or repeated misconduct or a material breach by the Parent/Guardian or Student, except where otherwise required by applicable law. Any refund or credit arising from termination on medical or fitness grounds will be determined in accordance with Section 3 and Section 4.

16. Parent/Guardian Responsibilities

• Ensure timely payment of fees.

• Provide a complete and accurate medical and fitness declaration, and update it promptly if circumstances change.

• Support attendance, punctuality, and appropriate kit for each session.

• Inform EDGE/School promptly of any absence, injury, or medical development relevant to the Student's participation.

17. Governing Law and Regulatory Compliance

• These Terms are governed by the laws of the Emirate of Dubai and the federal laws of the United Arab Emirates, as applied in the Emirate of Dubai. Subject to any mandatory rights available to consumers under applicable law, the courts of Dubai shall have jurisdiction in relation to any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms.

• EDGE operates its Programmes in accordance with the requirements of the Ministry of Education and any other governmental or regulatory authority responsible for licensing, regulating or overseeing the relevant School or Programme in the Emirate in which that Programme is delivered (the “Education Regulator”)

18. Amendments

• EDGE reserves the right to update these Terms at any time by notice to you. Continued enrolment in a subsequent term constitutes acceptance of the then-current Terms.

A2. The Survival Academy

A3. Water Competence Declaration

A4. Accreditation

A5. Kit

A6. Intellectual Property

A7. Off-Campus Delivery

The following apply wherever the Survival Academy is delivered otherwise than on School premises — for example as a Hub-Club or as a pop-up event such as Fast Track Survival, and however any future Survival Academy product is delivered off-campus (each, an “Off-Campus Delivery”). Where a Student is enrolled in an Off-Campus Delivery, references in this Schedule and in Part A to “the School” (as venue, co-supervisor or safeguarding route) do not apply, and EDGE — and, where relevant, the Venue Operator — fulfil the equivalent functions.

A7.1 Enrolment, Registration and Fees

• An Off-Campus Delivery is open to Students enrolled directly by a Parent/Guardian, from any school or none, subject to tier and age suitability and to availability. The format (for example a recurring termly club or a single pop-up event), and the venue, dates and session structure, are confirmed at the point of booking and in the joining instructions for that Off-Campus Delivery.

• The registration fee, other fees, and refunds for an Off-Campus Delivery are set out in full in Part A, Section 4.

A7.2 Arrival, Collection and Duty of Care

• EDGE's duty of care for a Student begins when the Student is signed in to a session and ends when the Student is signed out at the end of that session. It does not extend to any period before sign-in or after sign-out, or to travel to and from the venue.

• The Parent/Guardian is responsible for drop-off and collection at the venue at the times set out in the joining instructions, and must provide at booking the names of adults authorised to collect the Student. EDGE may decline to release a Student to any adult not on that list or whose identity cannot be verified.

• A Student may only sign out and leave unaccompanied where the Parent/Guardian has given specific written consent and the Student meets the minimum age stated in the joining instructions.

• If a Student is not collected by the end of a session and no authorised adult can be reached, EDGE will continue to supervise the Student and follow its late-collection and safeguarding procedures. A late-collection charge may apply, as disclosed at booking.

A7.3 Capacity, Ratios and Registers

• Every session, including any casual drop-in session where offered, is capped to the applicable supervision ratio and to the safe capacity of the venue. The ratio and cap that apply to a given Off-Campus Delivery are set out in the joining instructions.

• Where offered, drop-in sessions must be booked in advance and are not guaranteed. EDGE operates a sign-in / sign-out register and takes a roll-call at every session.

A7.4 Venue, Safety and Safeguarding

• Where the venue is operated by a third-party Venue Operator, that operator is responsible for its own premises, equipment, and premises safety and insurance. Students and Parents/Guardians must follow the Venue Operator's rules and safety briefings in addition to EDGE's. EDGE remains responsible for delivering and supervising the programme at the venue.

• Outdoor sessions are subject to Part A, Section 6 — EDGE may adjust, relocate or postpone sessions where reasonably necessary for safety, including heat, sandstorm or air-quality conditions.

• Because an Off-Campus Delivery is delivered away from a School, EDGE is the safeguarding lead for it. All EDGE instructors and any venue-based delivery staff are subject to EDGE's Child Protection and Safeguarding Policy and to safer-recruitment checks. Any safeguarding concern should be raised immediately with EDGE using the contact details in Part A, Section 19.

• Where an Off-Campus Delivery includes a Higher-Risk Activity (as defined in Part A, Section 1), the consent process in that Section applies, and EDGE may implement it through a separate activity- or venue-specific waiver at the point of booking or checkout, in addition to this Schedule.

A7.5 Medical, First Aid and Conduct

• The medical, fitness and emergency-authorisation provisions in Part A, Section 3, apply, and a qualified first-aider is present at each session. Parents/Guardians must not send a Student who is unwell or infectious; EDGE may decline participation or ask that a Student be collected where reasonably necessary for the Student's or others' safety.

• Part A, Section 5 (Conduct) applies. Because an Off-Campus Delivery is attended directly rather than through a School, EDGE holds sole authority over suspension, removal, tier progression and re-admission at an Off-Campus Delivery.

For any enquiries regarding these Terms and Conditions, please contact EDGE Ventures via info@edgeventures.ae.
