2016 Annual Conference & Expo 11Please contact Jeremy Shannon at [email protected] for more information.

CONTRACT FOR SPACE: Application must be on the official form. The receipt of your signed contract and full payment shall constitute a contract with the National Association of Specialty Pharmacy (NASP) for the right to use exhibit space. In the event of fire, strike, or other uncontrollable circumstances rendering the exhibit space unfit or unavailable, or causing the exhibit show to be canceled 10 days or more prior to the exhibit date, the contract will not be binding and payment will be refunded. If cancellation occurs within 10 days of the opening date, 50% of the rental fee will be refunded.

SPACE ASSIGNMENT: Exhibit booth locations will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Space will be reserved only after receipt of a completed application and the payment of the appropriate exhibit fee. NASP will attempt to honor choice of space as noted on the contract in the order requested. In the event that preferred space has been assigned, NASP reserves the right to assign alternative space. No exhibitor shall share, transfer, assign, sell, or barter assigned space without the expressed written permission of NASP. Any relationships between companies exhibiting in the same booth or adjoining booths must be submitted for approval by NASP with the submission of the contract or no later than August 1, 2016.

SPACE RENTAL: Exhibit booths provide a minimum exhibit space of 10  ’ 5 10 ’ to accommodate the exhibitor’s choice of display. Exhibitors may provide their own backdrops, but props must fit within the allotted space. All exhibitors must limit their booth heights to 10 ’.

Rental fee includes the use of marked space, one identification sign, two exhibitor badges, two registrations to the conference, and all food functions.

Furniture and other requests must be ordered through the show’s Service Contractor. Any costs for these additional services will be billed directly to the exhibitor.

EXHIBITOR REGISTRATION: Exhibit fees entitle two staff members to exhibit and attend conference sessions and functions at no ad-ditional charge. Additional staff is welcome to attend conference sessions and functions, but registration fees are required to do so. The company name appearing on the exhibitor badges must be the same company name that appears on the contract for space.

EXHIBIT REGULATIONS: NASP has developed these rules to protect the rights of all exhibitors and to consider the general appearance of the show as a whole, which must take precedence over that of any individual exhibitor. The rules adopted by NASP require the coop-eration of all exhibitors in maintaining due respect for adjoining exhibitors. 1. All exhibitors are responsible for informing their personnel and their authorized representatives of these rules. 2. Tabletop and custom freestanding displays will be allowed as long as they fit within the confines of your booth. Units and display

materials may not obstruct exhibit space to the right or left of the booth. 3. Nothing may be glued, pasted, tacked, nailed, screwed, or otherwise permanently attached to columns, walls, floors, or other parts

of the building or furniture. It is recommended that an easel be used for signage. Exhibitors violating this regulation are expressly bound, at their expense, to repair any such damage that they may cause.

4. Exhibitors wishing to use props or to display items that do not directly pertain to their product or business must have prior approval from NASP. Any special equipment must fit in your booth. This approval must be sought in writing at least 45 days in advance of the show. All correspondence should be addressed to Jeremy Shannon, in care of NASP, who will respond within 15 days.

5. All demonstrations, discussions, or other activities such as distribution of descriptive literature of any kind must be confined to the exhibitor’s booth.

6. All giveaway items must be distributed within the exhibitor’s booth. Items that cannot be stored in sufficient quantities within this space are not appropriate. Due to local liquor law regulations, alcoholic beverages must be purchased from the hotel.

7. No exhibitor shall hold or sponsor any type of contest, raffle, or drawing for prizes either in the exhibit hall or in connection with the meeting without advance approval by NASP.

INSTALLATION AND DISMANTLING OF EXHIBIT SPACE: Information for installation and dismantling of the booth will be provided once payment has been received.

EXHIBIT SPACE CANCELLATION: All cancellations must be made in writing to NASP. No telephone cancellations will be accepted. There will be NO REFUNDS if the exhibiting company cancels.

LIABILITY: The exhibitor hereby assumes the entire responsibility and hereby agrees to protect, defend, indemnify, and save NASP and the Hotel, its owners, its operator, and each of their respective parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, employees, officers, directors, and agents harmless against all claims, losses, or damages to persons or property, governmental charges or fines and attorney’s fees arising out of or caused by its installation, removal, maintenance, occupancy, or use of the exhibition premises or a part thereof, excluding any such liability caused by the sole gross negligence of the Hotel and its employees and agents.

The exhibitor shall obtain and keep in force during the term of the installation and use of the exhibit premises policies of Comprehensive General Liability Insurance and Contractual Liability Insurance, insuring and specifically referring to the Contractual Liability set forth in this Exhibit Agreement, in an amount not less than $2,000,000 Combined Single Limit for personal injury and property damage.

NASP and the Hotel, its owners, and its operator shall be included in such policies and additional named insured. In addition, the exhibitor acknowledges that neither NASP nor the Hotel, its owners, or its operator maintain insurance covering exhibitor’s property and that it is the sole responsibility of the exhibitor to obtain business interruption and property damage insurance insuring any losses by the exhibitor.
