to the stallion DUALIN BLU MOON (AQHA 5975168) (the 'Stallion') for the 2027 breeding season (Feb 1 - July 1) (the 'Breeding Season') in which FRESH COOLED SEMEN will be available from March 1 through May 21, 2027 and frozen will be available at all other times during said breeding season subject to the following terms and conditions.

1. BREEDING FEE. The breeding fee to the stallion is $1500 if paid before 12/31/26 and includes only the following:
    a. Stallion fee

• h. In the extreme event that shipping rates increase far beyond forecasted expectations AEC will re-evaluate shipping cost.

3. PRIORITY- Mares at the breeding facility have breeding priority on any given day, therefore the breeder makes no guarantee cooled semen will be available for any specific day. In the event of insufficient semen on a particular breeding day, breeder will ship on a first ordered, first served basis. If cooled is unavailable, breeder will make every effort to offer frozen semen.
4. DOSES- Mare owners requesting shipped semen should expect to receive only 1 dose of semen. Two doses will be sent if available.
5. BREEDER RESPONSIBILITY- Breeder assumes responsibility to ship semen in viable condition and shall not be held liable for contamination of semen during or after shipment, loss of viability, or any other losses incurred from shipments lost, delayed, or damaged.
6. MARE OWNER RESPONSIBILITY- The mare shall be in sound breeding condition, free from infections and/or contagious diseases, and current on all vaccinations and deworming, prior to breeding. A current negative Coggins test and health and immunization records shall accompany the mare if managed at AEC. AEC reserves the right to refuse any mare presented in unsatisfactory condition.
7. STANDARD OF CARE- AEC will meet or exceed the standard of care for all mares/foals on premises. AEC will examine on-site mares for reproductive and overall health and will administer medical care and farrier service as deemed necessary. The mare owner agrees to pay for needed medical treatments/farrier services necessary to provide the standard of care by AEC. AEC/stallion owner shall not be liable in any way for the mare failing to conceive, loss of pregnancy, injury, illness, or death of the mare or foal in their care for the purpose of fulfilling this contract. Insurance is the responsibility of the mare owner, and AEC can assist with insurance exams for coverage on a mare, foal, or foal in utero.
8. CONTAINERS- Mare owner is responsible for returning the shipping container to AEC within 5 days of receiving it. The container may be shipped via FedEx or UPS Ground Service. Your credit card will be charged if not returned within that time frame.
9. BREEDING REPORT- It is the mare owner's responsibility to report the pregnancy status of said mare to be included in the stallion breeding report. This contract provides for one (1) breeder certificate. If multiple embryos are retrieved from one breeding, an additional breeding fee will be assessed. It will be the

responsibility of the mare owner to notify AEC of the number of embryos transferred. If multiple embryos are desired and it takes more than one breeding, an additional contract will be required for each breeding. It is mare owner's responsibility to notify AEC when embryos are frozen and utilized.
10. LIVE FOAL GUARANTEE/REBREEDS- If the Mare does not produce a live foal the first breeding season, the Mare Owner is entitled to a rebreed the following year only. The Mare Owner will be subject to an additional collection/shipping fee, plus any additional attending veterinarian fees. The mare owner understands that they are responsible for all costs and expenses associated with insemination of the mare.
    a. If the Mare Owner fails to return the mare for breeding the following year, then all fees paid shall be forfeited, the right to rebreed is terminated and the Stallion Owner is released from all further obligation of the contract, unless otherwise agreed to in writing and signed by all parties.
    b. All rebreeds and donated breedings are subject to the collection/shipping fee. Any breedings that are won through Facebook Promotions that are performed by Breeder will NOT include a live foal guarantee. They are valid only for the year the breeding was won.
11. BREEDING SEASON- This Agreement is valid for the 2027 breeding season only. The Mare Owner may NOT enter into this Agreement with the intent to use in a subsequent season. In the event of this Agreement being paid in full, and the Mare never being bred, this shall become a rebreed for the following season ONLY. An additional Chute Fee will be due at that time, and any difference in Stallion Fee is payable to the Stallion Owner.
12. SOCIAL MEDIA- The Mare Owner agrees that nothing shall be posted or shared via social media that could be negatively construed regarding Breeder, or any of its members, managers, employees, associates, or affiliates. Failure to do so may result in legal action regarding the content and damages associated with such action. Furthermore, Breeder reserves the right to terminate this Agreement in the event this Agreement is breached. Any offending Mare Owner shall immediately forfeit any fees, payments or right to a rebreed.
13. STALLION- Should the Stallion die or become unfit for service for any reason, then this Agreement shall become null and void and both parties are relieved of any further obligation hereunder. Stallion Owner will attempt to fulfill Agreements via frozen semen at their sole discretion. Any amounts paid by the Mare Owner toward the Stallion Fee, shall be refunded at the sole discretion of the Stallion Owner. Additionally, Breeder makes no representations or warranties as to the potential of Stallion to achieve or maintain success as a producer of quality offspring.
14. The mare owner will sign and return the contract with the breeding fee to the stallion owner, and it will become a binding contract on both parties at that time if payment has been made, subject to above terms and conditions. In the event of a dispute between parties arising out of this contract, is submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction to arbitration, mediation or to any combination thereof for resolution. The prevailing party shall be entitled to all costs of such proceedings, including attorney fees. This contract shall be
