SECTION C

EPIC COVERAGE ELECTIONS

1. Choose Core Season or Priority Days. EPIC Coverage is designed to provide individualized refund protection, and you may elect either the “Core Season” or “Priority Day” option. Your election impacts the amount of refund you are eligible to receive under these Terms if a Qualifying Event occurs. If you make a Core Season election, you must also make either a “Primary Resort” or “All Resorts” election under EPIC Coverage. Some resorts may not be available for selection as a Primary Resort.

2. Making your Election. You may make your election under EPIC Coverage through the “My Account” section online at epicpass.com or by calling 970.754.0057. The ability to make your elections may not be available at the time of your purchase, but will be made available prior to the start of the Core Season.

3. Deadline to Make or Change your Election. Prior to the start of the Core Season, Vail Resorts will provide instructions via email regarding how you may make, update, or change your elections. If you purchase more than one Season Pass and any of those Passes are upgraded or refunded, in part or in full, your elections on all remaining Passes will automatically revert to the Default Election as set forth in Section C.4.

4. Default Elections. Your elections will automatically be set to the “Core Season” and “All Resorts” elections under EPIC Coverage upon your purchase. These elections will govern until such time as Vail Resorts makes alternative elections available and you select such alternative elections, if you so choose. If you have not made any alternative elections under EPIC Coverage before the applicable deadlines for doing so, your elections will remain automatically set to the “Core Season” and “All Resorts” elections under EPIC Coverage.

C&C REFUNDS

1. Refund Eligibility. You may be eligible for a “Closure and Cancellation Refund” (or “C&C Refund”) if a Priority Day Cancellation Event or an Extended Resort Closure Event occurs.

a. A “Priority Day Cancellation Event” occurs when Vail Resorts cancels one or more of your Priority Days due to a Resort Closure Event.

b. A “Resort Closure Event” occurs at a resort when no lifts are operating at that resort due to one or more of the following reasons:

i. The occurrence of a disease, epidemic, or pandemic, including COVID-19 pandemic;

ii. The occurrence of a Natural Disaster;

iii. The occurrence of a terrorist attack; or

v. The occurrence of a hostile or war-like action.

c. An “Extended Resort Closure Event” occurs if you elect Core Season and one of the following occurs:

i. You elected a Primary Resort and the Primary Resort you selected is closed for seven (7) or more consecutive days during the Core Season due to a Resort Closure Event.

ii. You purchased an EPIC Pass, EPIC Local Pass, EPIC Military Pass, or EPIC Day Pass, elected All Resorts, and all of the following ten resorts are simultaneously closed for seven (7) or more consecutive days during the Core Season due to a Resort Closure Event: Vail, Whistler Blackcomb, Breckenridge, Beaver Creek, Crested Butte, Keystone, Park City, Heavenly, NorthStar and Kirkwood.

iii. You purchased a Northeast Value Pass, elected All Resorts, and all of the following five resorts are simultaneously closed for seven (7) or more consecutive days during the Core Season due to a Resort Closure Event: Stowe, Mount Snow, Hunter, Okemo and Mount Sunapee.

iv. You purchased any Season Pass other than those identified in Section D.1.c(i)-(iii) above, elected All Resorts, and all of the resorts to which your Pass provides free access for six (6) or more days during the Core Season are simultaneously closed for seven (7) or more consecutive days during the Core Season due to a Resort Closure Event.

Your eligibility for a refund and the amount of any refund due to an Extended Resort Closure Event is specific to the Extended Resort Closure Event applicable to the Pass you purchased and elections you made.

2. Refund Amount. If you are eligible for a C&C Refund, the amount of your refund will be a percentage of your Purchase Price (i.e., the “C&C Refund Percentage”). The use of your Season Pass at Partner Resorts or outside of the Core Season, including during early season skiing or riding with EDGE Cards (or other products with similar offerings), will count towards the number of days you have used your Pass for purposes of determining the amount of any refund for which you may be eligible. If your C&C Refund Percentage as determined by the applicable formula below is zero or a negative number, you will not receive any refund.

a. Core Season Election or Default with General Season Pass. If you have a General Season Pass and elected or defaulted into Core Season coverage, your C&C Refund Percentage will be calculated based on the following formula:

Formula

b. Core Season Elections or Default with Fixed Season Pass. If you have a Fixed Season Pass and elected or defaulted into Core Season coverage, your C&C Refund Percentage will be the lesser of: (i) the percentage of days lost in the Core Season due to Extended Resort Closure Events, and (ii) one minus the number of days you used your Pass divided by the number of days available on your Pass up to a maximum of seven (7), as reflected in the following formula:

Formula

c. All Others. If you did not elect or default into Core Season coverage, your C&C Refund Percentage will be calculated based on the following formula:

Formula

3. C&C Refund Processing. No action is required of you if you are eligible to receive a C&C Refund. Vail Resorts will calculate, process, and notify you of your C&C Refund between May 1, 2025, and May 31, 2025.

4. No Access After Refund. If you receive any C&C Refund, the Pass for which you received the refund will cease to be valid and you will no longer be able to use the Pass to access any resorts or receive any other ancillary Pass benefits for the remainder of the 2024/25 season.

The use of your Season Pass at Partner Resorts or outside of the Core Season, including during early season skiing or riding with EDGE Cards (or other products with similar offerings), will count towards the number of days you have used your Pass for purposes of determining the amount of any refund for which you may be eligible.

If your Personal Event Refund Percentage as determined by the applicable formula below is zero or a negative number, you will not receive any refund.

The number of days that you used your Pass will be determined as of the date your refund request is processed.

2. Refund of Taxes. If you receive a refund under EPIC Coverage, Vail Resorts will refund all or a portion of the taxes paid in an amount based on applicable taxes as applied to the Purchase Price.

We and you hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of such courts for such purpose and waive any objection to such courts on any basis, including without limitation improper venue or inconvenience of the forum.

7. Time Limitation for Filing Suit. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.

You hereby voluntarily and knowingly agree, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, to waive, release, and forfeit any and all claims and actions you have or may have against Vail Resorts or any Vail Resorts Parties and any associated losses, damages and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), that relate to, arise out of, or may arise out of the operation of our resorts or Partner Resorts, your inability to use your Season Pass or other lift access product during the season for which it was purchased, or a violation of these Terms or any of other terms or policies referenced herein. Refunds under the EPIC Coverage Refund Policy or the Lift Access Product Terms of Sale are your sole remedy against any of the Vail Resorts Parties in connection with the operation of our resorts or Partner Resorts or your inability to use your Season Pass or other lift access product during the season for which it was purchased.

If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.” If you are a resident of another jurisdiction, you waive any comparable statute or doctrine.

Accordingly, some of the above limitations and disclaimers may not apply to you.

We disclaim any warranties to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law.

11. Class Action and Jury Waiver. YOU MAY ONLY RESOLVE DISPUTES RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THESE TERMS ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND MAY NOT BRING AND EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO BRING A CLAIM AS A PLAINTIFF OR A CLASS MEMBER IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.
