Agreement for Participation in the Timeless Wisdom Training U.S. 2025-26

This Agreement for Participation in the Timeless Wisdom Training U.S. 2025-26 (“Agreement”) is made between (“Participant” or “You”) and Inner Science LLC (“Provider” or “Us” or “We”), a Delaware limited liability company with offices located at 2 Ranch Drive, Novato, CA 94945, for participation in the Timeless Wisdom Training in the United States (“Program”), which commences on February 20, 2025 and concludes on December 6, 2026.

The Program includes four in-person and seven online retreats. The schedule of retreat dates is incorporated into this Agreement as Exhibit A. In between retreats, additional activities may include but are not limited to: mentoring calls led by Assistant team members, triad group meetings, and various homework assignments.

Participant’s signing of this Agreement, accompanied by payment of a non-refundable deposit of $600, secures Participant’s participation in the Program and confirms Participant’s agreement to the terms set forth below.

Participant hereby acknowledges and agrees to the following:

1. Participant will attend all scheduled in-person retreats and online retreats during the entire two-year Program. Full attendance is required to receive a Certificate of Completion for the Program. With permission from Provider, Participant may be allowed up to 2.5 days of excused absences per year and still qualify for the Certificate. A limited number of Participants are admitted into the Program, and any absences have a significant impact on the group work and may deny others the chance to participate.

2. Participant is required to stay at the retreat center for every in-person retreat. Participant must arrive by the start date and time and remain until the end date and time of each retreat. Any exceptions to this policy must be requested by Participant in writing and approved by Provider in advance. A limited number of exceptions will be granted based on circumstances such as travel or visa restrictions, health issues, and disabilities.

3. Participant is responsible for all lodging, food, and travel expenses for in-person retreats. Participant will book all accommodations directly with the retreat center and will be independently bound by those terms and conditions. If Participant cancels lodging at an in-person retreat, Participant will be responsible for all cancellation costs and fees imposed by the retreat center as well as any nightly room charges billed to Provider as a result of the cancellation.

4. Participant will comply with all health and safety guidelines and relevant legal requirements in force at the time of the Timeless Wisdom Training 2025/2026, including the guidelines of the national and local health authorities, the retreat center facility and by Provider. Failure to comply with health and safety guidelines may result in termination of Participant’s participation in the Program.

5. Prohibition of alcohol and drugs. Because of the intensive nature of the Program, it is recommended that participants abstain from using recreational drugs at any time during the two-year Program. At minimum, Participant must not consume marijuana, plant medicines, psychedelic substances, or other recreational drugs two weeks before or during the in-person and online retreats (excluding medications used as prescribed by a physician). Consuming alcohol is also prohibited during the retreats. Participants who violate this policy will be required to leave the retreat and may be asked to leave the Program. Some participants may be asked to commit to reduce their use beyond this minimum to ensure they can participate safely and benefit fully. If such an agreement is made as a condition of participation, Participant will abide by the agreement.

6. If Provider determines, in its sole discretion, and at any time, that Participant is not suited for participation in the Program for any legally permissible reason, Provider will inform Participant in writing and reimburse all fees paid to date for the period after termination. Upon receipt of such notice, Participant shall cease all participation in the Program. Provider may also exclude Participant in whole or in part from an individual in-person or online retreat. Circumstances in which Participant may be asked to leave the Program include but are not limited to:

1. Concerns about Participant’s physical or mental well-being and safety
2. Participant’s consumption of alcohol, marijuana, plant medicines, psychedelic substance, or other drugs or intoxicants during a Program retreat (excluding prescribed medications)
3. Participant engages in conduct that threatens the safety or participation of others:
   • Disruptive behavior that interferes with others’ participation or Provider’s ability to deliver the program;
   • Verbal or physical abuse, harassment, or threats against anyone associated with the program (including any staff);
   • Sexual harassment, including inappropriate advances, unwanted comments and physical touching, harassing photography or recording, and stalking
   • Failure to comply with health & safety policies;
   • Violation of the confidentiality agreement (as described in item 9 below)

7. Program content is subject to change at the sole discretion of Provider. While unlikely, retreat dates and locations are subject to change. If necessary to comply with government restrictions or due to circumstances outside of Provider’s control, in-person retreats may instead be shifted to be held online during the same dates. In the event that Provider changes the retreat dates or locations, Provider will exercise leniency in the mandatory in-person participation requirement.

8. Tuition and Payment Terms. Participant must sign the Tuition Payment Plan Agreement, which specifies the payment terms and cancellation policy for the Program.

9. Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure.

• Unless consent is given by Provider, Participant may not record, film, reproduce, or distribute the Program lectures or teaching materials.
