Each Exhibitor and employees of Exhibitor agree to abide by these conditions, it being understood and agreed that the sole control of the exhibit hall rests with TitleTech.
2) ASSIGNMENT OF SPACE
All booths assignments will be made on a first-come, first-serve basis. TitleTech management reserves the right to change assignments in rare instances at its sole discretion if and when necessary.
3) PAYMENT
A minimum deposit of $600 per primary booth and $100 for each additional booth must be submitted with registration in order to secure booth space. Your final balance will be due by December 1, 2000. Exhibitor Registrations will be accepted after December 1, 2000 providing space availability, with full payment only.
4) CANCELLATION OR RELOCATION OF CONVENTION
Upon cancellation and or relocation of meeting, the liability of TitleTech shall be limited to a refund of the rental fee.
5) CANCELLATION / CHANGES / ADDITIONS BY EXHIBITOR
All changes and or additions to the information provided herein must be made in writing. Written cancellations received prior to February 1, 2001 will be accepted with a 50% refund, less the $600/booth deposit. No refunds will be issued for cancellations received after February 1, 2001.
6) LIABILITY

TitleTech undertakes no duty to exercise care, nor assumes any responsibility for the protection of the property of the Exhibitor or its representatives, or of property used in connection with the exhibit from theft or damage or destruction by fire, accident or other cause. Small and easily portable articles shall be properly secured or removed after exhibition hours and placed in safekeeping by the Exhibitor. Any protection exercised in fact by TitleTech shall be deemed purely gratuitous on its part and shall in no way be construed to involve it in liability by the Exhibitor.

TitleTech shall not be liable for the fulfillment of this agreement as to delivery of space, if non delivery is due to any of the following causes: destruction of or damage to the building or the exhibit area by fire or acts of God; acts of a public enemy; strikes; the authority of the law; or any cause beyond its control. TitleTech will, however, in the event it is not able to hold an exhibit for any of the above named causes, reimburse Exhibitors pro rata on any rental fee paid, less any and all legitimate expenses incurred by TitleTech for advertising, administration, etc. Exhibitor assumes entire responsibility and hereby agrees to protect indemnify, defend and save TitleTech and the exhibit facility, its owners and affiliated companies, and all employees and agents hereof (hereinafter collectively called "indemnities") forever harmless against all claims, losses and damages to persons or property, governmental charges or fines and attorneys fees arising out of or caused by Exhibitor’s installation, removal, maintenance, occupancy or use of the exhibition premises or a part thereof, excluding any such liability caused by the sole negligence of the Indemnities and their employees and agents.

In Addition, Exhibitor acknowledges that TitleTech and the Indemnities do not maintain insurance covering Exhibitor’s property and that it is the sole responsibility of Exhibitor to obtain business interruption and property damage insurance covering such losses by Exhibitor.

7) PROTECTION OF EXHIBIT FACILITY
Nothing shall be posted on, or tacked, nailed, screwed, or otherwise attached to columns, walls, floors, or other parts of the hotel exhibit area without permission from the proper building authority. Packing, unpacking, assembling of and dismantling of booths will be done in strict accordance with guidelines set by TitleTech and GES Exposition Services. All union regulations will be adhered to.
8) BOOTH REGULATIONS
Standard booth equipment (back and sidewall draping, and identification sign) will be provided by TitleTech without cost to the Exhibitor. If an Exhibitor plans to install a completely constructed display of such a character that the Exhibitor will not require or desire the use of standard booth equipment, no part thereof shall so project as to obscure the view of the adjacent booths. No display may exceed a height of eight feet on the back wall nor be higher than the 3 feet side wall specifications. Carpeting shall be limited to exhibitors’ booth(s) only, and will not be permitted to cross any aisles. The playing of music or any form of sound amplification is strictly prohibited. Exhibitor agrees not to conduct its operation in a manner that shall infringe up on the rights and privileges of another with the use of objectionable lighting or mechanical reproduction of sound or music. Show Management reserves the right to restrict exhibitors that may be deemed objectionable. All Exhibitors will adhere to the fire and electrical regulations of the city of Denver, Colorado.
9) USE OF SPACE
No Exhibitor may assign, sublet or apportion the whole or any part of his or her booth space. Nor may an Exhibitor permit any other person or party to exhibit therein without the written permission of the TitleTech Management. Nor shall any Exhibitor have the right to solicit business within any public space controlled by management during the course of this conference unless specific approval is received by management. No Exhibitor shall be allowed to create a diversion that will reduce the attendance at TitleTech or engage in any activity that shall be deemed detrimental to any other exhibitor. To do so would require automatic expulsion from TitleTech and could have ramifications for future events. Additionally, no exhibitor shall engage in loud activities or presentations that may diminish the existence of other exhibitors.
10) INSTALLATION AND DISMANTLING

The specific requirements as to time for installation and dismantling of exhibits shall be supplied to Exhibitor. Such requirements shall be binding upon the licensee as though fully set forth herein. All displays must be in place and set up by the time of the official opening of the show. Space not occupied by that time may be re-assigned for other purposes by TitleTech Management. If the exhibit space is not set up during official installation hours, TitleTech Management will instruct the Exhibit Company to setup the booth and the Exhibitor will incur this cost. No Exhibitor will be permitted to dismantle prior to the official close of the show. Any company violating this regulation may be denied exhibit space in future TitleTech expositions.
Where a union contract covers the exposition, it will be necessary that all exhibitors use qualified union personnel for the various services required for material handling within the show. The handling, placing or setting of merchandise that is to be displayed does not require union labor and may be done by the exhibitor. In addition, the installation or dismantling of an exhibit which does not require the use of hand tools, or more than one person, and can be accomplished with thirty minutes, may be performed by the owner or company representative. Union rules vary from city to city, therefore, consult your official show kit for union rules relating to this specific show.

11) DEFAULT OCCUPANCY
Any Exhibitor failing to occupy space contracted for is not relieved of the obligation of paying for such space at the full rental price. TitleTech shall have the right to use such space as it sees fit to eliminate blank space in the exhibit hall, provided such booth space is not occupied by one hour before the official show opening.
12) PERSONNEL
All personnel working at an exhibit booth will be registered attendees, and will wear appropriate TitleTech badges at all times. Admission to TitleTech is by badge only. Badges are not transferable. You must staff you booth at all times when exhibits are open.
