Shannon audley a professional model signed an agreement


Shannon Audley, a professional model, signed an agreement before starting work on a photo shoot at Bill Melton's studio. The agreement stated: "I, Shannon Audley, realize that working with wild and potentially dangerous animals (i.e., lion, white tiger, hawk) can create a hazardous situation resulting in loss of life or limb. I take all responsibility upon myself for any event as described about that may take place. I hold Bill Melton and T.I.G.E.R.S or any of their agents free of any or all liability. I am signing this of own free will." During the photo shoot, Audley was bitten on the head by the adult male lion with which she had been posing. Audley brought suit against Melton. Would the exculpatory clause be upheld be the courts? Explain. [See: Audley v. Melton, 640 A.2d 777 NH).]
