Agreement: By signing the Exhibit Space Application and Contract, the Exhibitor agrees to abide by these Rules and Regulations, and all amendments thereto, and the decisions of Show Management. For purposes of this agreement, the term Show Management shall mean NATAS and its authorized agent, NATAS, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, and staff. NATAS s liability on this contract shall be limited solely to that of an agent. The term exhibit hall shall mean the facility in which the show is held. The term Exhibitor shall mean any company, firm or person who has applied for or been allocated any space at the Exhibit. The term Exhibitor personnel shall mean all employees, servants, relatives, independent contractors, or agents of the Exhibitor. 2. Booth Assignments: Show Management s assignment of booth space is final and shall constitute an acceptance of the Exhibitor s offer to occupy space. Assignments will be made only after receipt of the Application/Contract for Space and the appropriate booth fees. After assignment, space location may not be changed, transferred, or canceled except upon written request and with the subsequent written approval of Show Management. Notwithstanding the above, Show Management reserves the right to change location assignments at any time, as it may in its sole discretion deem necessary. 3. Rejected Displays: The Exhibitor agrees that his exhibit shall be admitted into the Show and shall remain from day to day solely on strict compliance with all the rules herein described. Show Management reserves the right to reject, eject, or prohibit any exhibit on whole or in part, or any Exhibitor with or without giving cause. Show Management s liability for rejection without giving cause shall be limited to a refund to the Exhibitor of the amount of rental unearned at the time of ejection. However, if an exhibit or Exhibitor is ejected for violation of these rules or for any other stated reason (with cause), no return of rental shall be made. 4. Installation and Removal: Show Management reserves the right to fix the time for the installation of the booth prior to the show opening and for its removal after the conclusion of the show. Installation is scheduled Noon am to 5:00 pm on Monday, August 6, 2018 in Bodek Lounge. Installation of all exhibits must be fully completed at least 30 minutes prior to the opening time of the Opening Reception. Failure to adhere to this requirement could restrict Exhibitor s entry into any future shows produced by the Show Management. Any space not claimed by 5:30 pm on Monday, August 6, may be resold or reassigned without refund. EXHIBITION HOURS: Monday Installation Noon 5:00 pm Opening Reception in the Exhibition Hall begins at 6:00 pm on Monday Tuesday Exhibits 9:00 am - 5:00 pm

Wednesday Exhibits 9:00 am 11:00 am Tear down must be complete by 1:00 pm on Wednesday 5. Early Removal of Exhibits Not Allowed: a) No exhibit shall be packed, removed, or dismantled prior to the closing of the Show without written permission from the Show Management. If the Exhibitor acts in breach of this provision it shall pay, as compensation for the distraction to the Exhibition s appearance, an amount equal to one-third of the total space charge for the Exhibitor s allocated area, in addition to all sums otherwise due under this agreement. b) Breach of this provision could result in the loss of Exhibitor s right to exhibit in future NATAS shows for three (3) years. c) For security reasons, any equipment removed from the exhibit facility prior to the official closing of the show shall require a special pass issued by Show Management. 6. Exhibitor Appointed Contractors (EAC): Any Exhibitor using an EAC agrees to notify Show Management of such appointment and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Show Management, NATAS, the exhibit facilities, and their respective officers, directors, staffs, employees and agents and all official contractors from any and all liability or losses for any act, complaint, damage, or loss to any other exhibitor, and exhibit hall, the property of any contractor or any consequential damages arising out of any such act or loss from the time the independent EAC first arrives at the hall until the final move-out is complete. The exhibitor further agrees that Show Management may prohibit the EAC from working in the hall if they do not fully comply with all rules and regulations set forth for them at this event. Any Exhibitor using an EAC agrees to advise its EAC of all rules and regulations. 7. Playing or Performing Music: Exhibitor shall not provide or permit the playing or reproduction of music in any form or at any time unless (a) if the music is copyrighted, exhibitor shall have paid in advance to Show Management an additional fee in an amount specified in the exhibitor contract, and (b) whether the music is believed to be copyrighted or not, exhibitor shall obtain in advance from Show Management a written consent to the providing of such music by exhibitor. Exhibitor specifically agrees that in the absence of full compliance with (a) and (b) above, no music whatsoever, in any form, will be provided or permitted by it. Show management shall have the power to make any reasonable settlement, without the consent or approval of exhibitor, to resolve any dispute which may arise between Show Management and anyone claiming to enforce a copyright, which settlement shall nevertheless be binding on exhibitor insofar as holding Show Management harmless and indemnifying Show Management are concerned. Exhibitor expressly agrees that Show Management may, at exhibitor s expense, take any legal action, including summary action, appropriate to ensure compliance by exhibitor with these provisions, including the obtaining of an injunction against exhibitor. 8. Act of God: In the event that, because of war, fire, strike, government regulations, public catastrophe, act of God or the public enemy or other causes beyond the reasonable control of Show Management, the Show or any part thereof is prevented from being held, is canceled by Show Management, or the exhibit space assigned hereunder becomes unavailable, any refund of exhibit fees to the Exhibitor shall be at the absolute discretion of Show Management. Such refund, if given, shall be proportionate share of the balance of the aggregate exhibit fees received which remains after deducting expenses incurred by Show Management and reasonable compensation to Show Management. But in no case shall the amount of refund to the Exhibitor exceed the amount of exhibit fee paid. Show Management in its sole discretion shall calculate such refund. Exhibitor shall not have any NATAS Exhibit Rules & Regulations Page 2

right to an accounting, review, or audit of the financial records of Show Management. 9. Fire and Safety Laws: No combustible materials, such as crepe, tissue, cardboard or corrugated paper shall be used at any time.

Show Management shall not be liable for injury of any type from any cause to persons conducting or otherwise participating in the conduct of the Show or to invitees, guests, or employees of the Exhibitor. Exhibitor understands that Show Management does not carry business interruption and property damage insurance coverage for loss or damage of Exhibitor s property. The Exhibitor agrees to obtain the following insurance during the dates of the tradeshow, including move-in and move-out days, and shall be prepared to furnish a certificate of insurance to Show Management if requested: (a) Comprehensive general liability insurance coverage including protective and contractual liability coverage of $250,000/$500,000 for bodily injury and $50,000 property damage; (b) Employers liability insurance with minimum limits of $100,000 per accident; (c) Worker s Compensation/ Occupational Disease coverage in full compliance with federal and state laws; (d) Comprehensive General Liability Automobile insurance covering owned, nonowned, and hired vehicles, including loading and unloading hazards with bodily injury limits of $250,000/$500,000 and property damage limits of $100,000.
