All tables have skirting, waste paper basket and a 7” x 44” one-line identification sign. Please review the following restrictions and guidelines carefully. These restrictions will be enforced in a very strict manner by the ISPE staff in order to secure equal opportunities and consistent Table Top Exhibits throughout. 1. Only one Exhibiting Company per table will be authorised. Each individual company must have a separate table. Subletting of space will not be allowed. 2. Exhibits must be staffed at all times during Exhibition hours. Exhibits may be staffed by a maximum of two (2) representatives at a time from each company. Exhibitors may not take down displays before closing hours. 3. Exhibits should be as simple as possible and must conform to the following: • The entire Exhibit must be confined to the top of the table only (nothing will be allowed to hang off, be located underneath, behind, in front or alongside of the table). • The maximum heights including lights, signs, etc. of any display shall be 60 inches (152.40 cm) from the top of the table. • The maximum width of any display shall be 28.5 inches (72 cm) (banqueting table). Displays must not overhang the top of the table. • Only static displays are acceptable. No operating machinery of any type will be allowed (excluding computer terminals and video monitors). 4. ISPE reserves the rights to restrict Table Top Exhibits which are objectionable because of size, noise, glaring or flashing lights, method of operation, or any other reason and, therefore, to prohibit or evict any Exhibitor who, in the opinion of ISPE, may detract from the overall good of the Exhibit. This reservation includes person, conduct, printed matter or anything ISPE judges to be objectionable. Any failure to comply with the above restrictions shall result in exclusion from participation in futures ISPE table top events. LIABILITY AND COMPLIANCE ISPE, the Conference Venue and their agents and/or employees shall not be responsible for any loss, theft or damage to the property of the Exhibitor, his/her employees and/or representatives. The Exhibitor assumes the entire responsibility and liability for losses, damages, and claims arising out of Exhibitor’s activities at the Conference Venue premises and will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Conference Venue, its agents, servants and employees from any and all such losses, damages and claims. Exhibitors are advised to carry special insurance against injury to the persons and property of others. The Exhibitor assumes all responsibility for compliance with all pertinent regulations and codes of duly authorised governing bodies concerning fire, safety and health together with the rules and regulations of the operators and/or owners of the conference venue. 5|Page Section 3 – General Exhibition Information (continued) CANCELLATION POLICY A fifty percent (50%) refund will be given up to 10 weeks prior to the Conference.
