Space Assignments:  EEA reserves the right to reassign, move and add exhibit spaces.

Liability and Insurance:  Exhibitor agrees to assume all liability for loss or damage of any property of Exhibitor which Exhibitor may suffer during installation or removal or during the conference by any cause including but not limited to, burglary, fire or accident.  Exhibitor also expressly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless EEA and the host hotel, and all officers, directors, employees and agents of EEA from any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damage and expenses that may arise from the Exhibitor’s participation at the conference.  Exhibitor shall, at its own expense, secure and maintain through the period of the conference, including installation and dismantling time, general liability insurance.  Upon request EEA shall be provided with an insurance certificate naming EEA as Additional Insured under the Exhibitor’s general liability policy.

The liability of EEA shall be limited to the money paid by Exhibitor as Exhibit Space rental, less a proportionate share of all expenses incurred by EEA related to the exhibition space.

Exclusion:  EEA reserves the right to refuse any application for exhibit space as well as the right to restrict or evict any Exhibitor that, in the sole opinion of EEA, detracts from the character of the exhibition area.  In the event of such restriction or eviction, EEA will not be liable for any refunds, expenses or in any manner.

Subletting of Space:  Exhibitor shall not assign, sublet, or share the whole or any part of the space allocated without the prior written consent of EEA.

Acceptance of this contract by EEA shall in no way be construed as an endorsement of EEA of the Exhibitor, its products or services. EEA reserves the right to modify exhibit hours and/or days as EEA deems necessary.
