Each exhibitor must name at least one individual to be the exhibitor’s authorized agent for installation, operation and removal of the exhibit. No part of the exhibit may be removed after set up except with written permission from show management. A $250.00 penalty fee will be charged for any exhibit that is removed before the final tear down time. 2. LOCATION / DATES: Simon Event Management reserves the right to determine an exhibitor’s final location, the location of the Show and the dates of a show. The location of assigned space may be changed by the management to prevent congestion; avoid confusion in firm names; solve competitive conditions; or to benefit the overall production of the show. 3.

Exhibitors are restricted to the use of materials which would pass a fire inspection. 5. HEIGHT RESTRICTIONS: Exhibits, back walls and decorations shall not exceed 15 feet. Permission must be obtained from show management to exhibit equipment which exceeds the height restriction. 6. LOUD SPEAKERS AND SOUND DISPLAYS: Loud speakers and loud sound displays are prohibited; exhibitors must receive advance permission from show management to exhibit any type of sound display. 7. NON-CONFORMING EXHIBITS: Simon Event Management reserves the right to refuse any exhibitor which does not, in show management’s judgment, conform to the general theme of the show. 8. SOLICITATION: Exhibitors are prohibited from soliciting business in the aisles or in other exhibitor booth areas. Samples, pamphlets, publications and catalogs, etc. may only be distributed by exhibitors from within the confines of their own booth area. Exhibitors must obtain prior permission from the show management to conduct any other type of promotional activities during show hours. 9.

Simon Event Management shall cooperate fully at all times but shall not be responsible for (a) damage to exhibitors property, lost shipments either coming in or going out, moving costs; or (b) any damage loss, delays, etc. Any damage to transported property is solely exhibitor’s responsibility. In light of the above, we recommend that exhibitors purchase adequate insurance coverage against these risks and on equipment and exhibits with their regular insurance carrier. 12. BREACH OF CONTRACT: If an exhibitor cancels for any reason whatsoever with a signed contract, they shall be held liable for the full amount of the booth cost. They shall also forfeit all monies which have been paid to reserve the space and be liable for the full cost of the space. The exhibitor will also be liable for all costs incurred by management in consideration of the exhibitor including, but not limited to tables, coverings, skirting, chairs, signage, chairs, signage and exhibitors listings in advertising placed on behalf of the exhibitor.
