English Law/Patents Law (general)

Hello,

I came across the above term and would like to make sure I get it right. It occurs twice in the below paragraph, which is a part of a competition’s rules. Entrants who participate in this competition have to sign release forms to clear certain copyrights in favour of the competition’s entities.

-- The Releases enable Entrants to confirm and provide proof that they have obtained all relevant clearances so as to permit the use of the Entries in connection with the Competition … including, but not limited to, permissions with respect to producers (to the extent not also the Entrant), co-director(s) (if applicable), writers (to the extent not also the Entrant), any other underlying literary material on which the Entry may be based, location, cast, crew, props, third-party copyright or trademarked materials/property, and any composer or performer(s) of any musical recordings used in the Entry. -- END

My question is “what is the status of the Entrant in the phrase in question?”

Thanks in advance for your help!
