TERMS AND CONDITIONSTo ensure a successful exhibiting or sponsoring experience at the Health Care Compliance Association’s (HCCA’s) confer-ences, please read the following Exhibitor & Sponsor Terms and Conditions (“Terms and Conditions”) carefully. By sub-mitting a booth space or sponsorship application, exhibitors and sponsors agree to abide by these Terms and Conditions, and any other rules and regulations set forth for this event, including any special requirements that are imposed by the facility at which the conference will be held (“Facility”). Exhibitor or Sponsor agrees and understands that these Terms and Conditions are contractual in nature, and become part of the agreement between the exhibitor and HCCA relating to exhibitor’s attendance and exhibiting activities at the HCCA 2013 Compliance Institute.
1. Eligibility to Exhibit. Exhibitors’ products and services must be relevant to the health care compliance profession. To exhibit, exhibitors must be in good financial standing with HCCA. HCCA has the right to refuse or terminate exhibit space rental if products, services, exhibitor behavior or dis-plays are not appropriate and compatible with the general character or quality of the conference and cause undue inter-ference with the effective operations of the HCCA and its staff. The rules, policies, and regulations outlined on this form and in the service kit are part of the exhibitor’s contract with HCCA.
2. Space Assignment. All dimensions and locations shown on the official floor plan are believed, but not warranted to be, accurate. HCCA reserves the right to make such modifica-tions as may be necessary to meet the needs of the Exhibitors and the exhibit program.
(a) The first opportunity to reserve 2013 booth space is at the 2012 HCCA Compliance Institute. This on-site elec-tion is based on the HCCA Priority Point System. Points are awarded to exhibiting companies based on number of years exhibiting and sponsorship at HCCA National Conferences and exhibitor’s corporate membership. Points are totaled and the Priority Point list is created prior to each year’s space selection in descending order from the company with the highest amount of points. The company with the highest point total will select space first, followed by the consecutive companies in descend-ing point total order. The order of selection will be based on the accrued priority points. The exhibitor with the highest number of acquired points will choose booth space first and so on. Each company has a maximum of 5 minutes to select booth space from a live floor plan. You must be ready to select your booth when your company name is called or you will be passed. Prior to leaving on-site booth selection, your company representative will receive a confirmation letter with your booth number. If
an exhibitor misses their scheduled meeting time, they will be accommodated as the booth selection schedule allows at the end of the scheduled time slot they arrive in.
(b) After on-site space selection, booth space reservations will be open to the public and space will be assigned on a first come, first serve basis by the date the booth space contract and deposit are received. If an exhibitor’s first selection of space has already been assigned, HCCA will allocate the next-best available space. Upon receipt of contract and deposit, space assignment(s) will be sent within five to seven business days. If the exhibit hall space is sold out, notification will be made immediately by phone and the organization applying to exhibit is placed on a waiting list. HCCA assumes that the exhibit space assignment is accepted unless HCCA receives a written denial within 7 days of notification. Assignments made within 30 days of the start of the conference are assumed to be final at the time that they are made. Date of notification is the date HCCA emails the notification. HCCA reserves the right to modify the floor plan or move the exhibitor’s booth location to accommodate floor plan configuration or traf-fic flow.
3. Exhibitor Use of Space. Exhibitors may not assign, sublet, or apportion the whole or any part of their allotted space. In addition, exhibitors may not advertise or display products or services other than those manufactured or sold in their regular business. Exhibitor or Sponsor company descriptions in the on-site program will be limited to one company name and identity listing. The distribution of samples, souvenirs, publications, etc., or other sales or sales promotion activities must be conducted by exhibitor only from within its space. The distribution of any article that interferes with the activi-ties or obstructs access to neighboring booths, or that impedes aisles, is prohibited. This includes placement of display racks, banners, brochures or other items outside of the designated space rented by the exhibitor, as well as the offering of food or beverages.
4. Exhibitor Code of Conduct. All exhibitors agree to abide by the following code of conduct, and agree to HCCA’s right to take immediate action to restrict or evict exhibitor and/or its personnel from the conference in the event of Code of Conduct violations. In the event of such eviction or restriction, exhibitor will forfeit all moneys paid for the conference, and may be subject to restrictions or prohibitions on attending future HCCA conferences.
• The exhibitor and its personnel shall conduct and operate its exhibit so as not to annoy, endanger or interfere with the rights of other Exhibitors conference attendees and visitors or HCCA staff.
12
TERMS AND CONDITIONS (continued)• HCCA reserves the right to prohibit any exhibit and/
or exhibitor that, in its sole discretion and judgment, is inappropriate, offensive, or may detract from the general character of the conference.
• HCCA reserves the right to remove, without compensa-tion, any exhibit and/or exhibitor that, in HCCA’s sole discretion and judgment, is inappropriate, offensive, or may detract from the general character of the conference.

5. Exhibitor/Sponsor-Hosted Functions. Only exhibiting companies and sponsors may host functions at the meeting. Functions may not be scheduled at times that conflict with conference sessions or receptions.
6. Cancellation
(a) Cancellation or Reduction of Booth by HCCA. An exhibitor’s failure to submit payment can result in the cancellation of the assigned space. In addition, HCCA has the right to cancel, reduce, or redistribute allocated booth space upon reasonable cause or due to events that make performance impossible. In the event of such an occurrence, HCCA will provide written notification and agrees to negotiate in good faith toward refund or reduction of the exhibit fee. If any part of the exhibit area is damaged, or the exhibi-tor is not permitted to occupy their assigned space, the exhibitor will be charged only for space that was actually occupied. HCCA is released from any and all claims for damages that may arise in conjunction with the above. In the event the meeting is cancelled due to disasters, strikes, government regulations, or causes preventing its sched-uled opening or continuance, HCCA and its exhibitors agree that this agreement will be terminated. Considering expenditures and commitments already made, HCCA will determine refunds on an equitable basis.
(b) Cancellation by Exhibitor. A 50% deposit is required for all booth rentals. Balance must be paid in full by 4/1/2013. Cancellation fee for exhibit space is $1,300 if cancelled before 4/1/2013. No refunds will be made after this date. Exhibitor fees are non-refundable.

Exhibitors dismantling prior to conference close will lose all points accumulated in the previous twelve months. Note: The exhibitor assumes all financial responsibil-ity for installation and dismantling of the exhibit.

The same cancellation policy of fees and dates will apply to mergers regardless of the ability of HCCA to resell the booth space. Priority Points will not be combined for companies that merge.
