Exhibitor or its agents shall not injure or deface the walls or floors of the building, the booths, the equipment or furnishings of the booths or building within which the Show takes place. No booth may obstruct the general view or access to surrounding booths, displays, aisles or public space within the building where the Show is being held. Exhibits must remain intact until the scheduled hour of conclusion of the Show, as such time is established by AMC. If damage should occur, the Exhibitor will assume full liability for any such damage caused by Exhibitor or its agents, employees, or contractors, and AMC shall have the right to charge Exhibitor for any repairs to the Exhibit Space and/or the building, and Exhibitor shall immediately pay to AMC the requested sum(s).

3) REMOVAL OF MERCHANDISE Exhibitor shall be responsible for the removal of its entire display, including without limitation, walls, floors and furniture. Exhibitor should make certain removal is performed only by its employees or other authorized persons. AMC will not be liable for unauthorized removal of articles, merchandise, equipment, displays or property.

4) RULES AND REGULATIONS/COMPLIANCE Exhibitor shall observe and abide by these Terms and Conditions and such other rules and regulations that AMC may adopt from time to time. Exhibitor assumes all responsibility for compliance with all pertinent ordinances, regulations and codes of duly authorized local, state and federal governing bodies, including without limitation those concerning fire, safety and health, together with the rules and regulations of the operators and/or owners of the property wherein the Show is held. Exhibitor shall not display or sell any merchandise that is counterfeit or which in any way infringes the trademarks, copyrights, or other intellectual property of a third party, nor shall Exhibitor display or sell any merchandise which the manufacturer has not explicitly authorized Exhibitor to sell. Breach of this covenant may result in immediate termination of this Contract and the removal of Exhibitor from the Exhibit Space. Exhibitor shall not display or sell any merchandise that tends to injure the reputation or operations of AMC or any of its affiliates. It is further agreed that Exhibitor will abide by and comply with rules and regulations concerning local unions having agreements with AMC or with authorized contractors retained by AMC, or owners of the property wherein the Show is held. Exhibitor is responsible for obtaining applicable permits or licenses required by law and shall abide by all federal, state and local laws. Exhibitor is responsible for the payment of all taxes, fees and charges required by any legal authority associated with use of the Exhibit Space and/or the building that are not the responsibility of AMC.

Exhibitor shall be responsible for non-permanent accessibility requirements, including, but not limited to, auxiliary aids for the visually impaired, hearing impaired and mobility impaired, meeting room arrangements and exhibition accessibility. In the event Exhibitor fails to pay any amount hereunder as and when the same is due and payable, AMC shall be entitled to, and Exhibitor agrees to pay, interest on such unpaid amount at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum, together with all costs incurred by AMC in collecting such amounts, including, without limitation, AMC’s administrative costs (not to exceed five percent (5%) of the amount collected), and AMC’s actual attorneys’ fees.

5) CANCELLATION/SIZE MODIFICATION POLICY Exhibit space cost must be paid in full in accordance with specified payment deadlines. AMC may cancel this Contract without refund to Exhibitor, and may re-assign any Exhibit Space previously assigned to Exhibitor, upon failure of Exhibitor (i) to make

payment required hereby, (ii) to abide by these Terms and Conditions and other rules and regulations as provided above, or (iii) to claim its assigned Exhibit Space prior to the opening of the Show. If the Show or any part thereof is prevented from being held, is canceled by AMC or the Exhibit Space applied for herein becomes unavailable because of war, fire, strike, government regulations, public catastrophe, act of God, the public enemy or other cause, AMC shall determine and refund to Exhibitor its proportionate share of the balance of the aggregate exhibit fee received, if any, which remains after deducting expenses incurred by AMC and reasonable compensation to AMC, but in no case shall the amount of refund to Exhibitor exceed the amount of the exhibit fee paid. Cancellation of this Contract by the Exhibitor will not result in a refund, credit or transfer of Exhibit Space. In the event that a company elects to reduce the assigned net square footage after formal confirmation of booth space, the company will forfeit the deposit amount for each booth released.

6) LIABILITIES Neither AMC, nor any of its members, agents, employees and other representatives, shall be held accountable or liable for, and the same are hereby released from accountability or liability for any damages, losses, harm or injuries to the person or any property of Exhibitor or any of its officers, agents, employees, contractors or other representatives, resulting from theft, fire, water, accident, or any other cause.
