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.
