Company and all direct or indirect owners, officers, managers, directors, attorneys, employees and agents of the above as their interests may appear with respect to the actions of the named insured (collectively the “Covered Parties”) must be included on the requisite commercial general liability and automobile liability insurance required as listed additional insureds. These additional insured designations, as respects the requisite commercial general liability insurance, shall apply on a primary and noncontributory basis.
  2. Limits and Type:

Such insurance must be maintained throughout the term of this Agreement and at all times while Exhibitor or any person employed by Exhibitor or acting on Exhibitor’s behalf, including, without limitation, any subcontractors (collectively, “Exhibitor Personnel”) is using or occupying the Premises or any part thereof. Exhibitor must maintain at minimum to following insurance policies at the following minimum limits:

(iv) Sponsor will also maintain workers compensation as required under applicable state law insurance during the dates they are working with the Event, including coverage for subcontractors, agents, temporary employees, and volunteers.

The insurance set forth above shall provide coverage on an “occurrence” basis (rather than a “claims made” basis) and must not be subject to any deductible or retention (or other provision) requiring Exhibitor to remain responsible for part of any loss. Each policy must be issued by an insurer with a current rating from A.M. Best Company of at least A:VII.

  1. Certificates and Right to Cover:

At least 30 days before the first day of the event, Exhibitor shall provide to Company a standard certificate of insurance executed by the authorized insurance agent of the issuer of each such policy, showing that all coverage required by this Agreement is in force and stating such issuer’s undertaking to endeavor to not cancel or change such coverage without at least sixty (60) days prior written notice to Company. If Exhibitor fails to obtain any coverage required hereby (or fails to timely provide to Company all evidence of such coverage required hereby), then Company, may, at its election, and in addition to all other rights and remedies available to it, may cancel this Agreement or obtain such coverage at Exhibitor’s expense, and Exhibitor shall promptly reimburse Company for the costs thereof.

  1. INDEMNITY. Exhibitor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Covered Parties from and against any and all claims, suits, loss, cost, claims, damage (including reasonable legal and attorneys’ fees to defend any claim or to enforce this Agreement), or injury of any nature whatsoever, whether to persons or to property collectively, “Claims”) arising from or connected in any way with the performance or alleged non-performance of Exhibitor, any Exhibitor Personnel, or any other agents or guests of the foregoing with respect to this Agreement.
  2. CONFIDENTIALITY. If Exhibitor receives any information regarding any of the Covered Parties that is marked confidential or that ought, under standards of commercial reasonableness, to be considered confidential, Exhibitor agrees that it will maintain, and it will cause any Exhibitor Personnel to maintain, the utmost confidentiality of such information, and in the event of Exhibitor’s breach or attempted breach, the Covered Parties are expressly given the right to injunctive or other equitable relief without the necessity of posting bond or other security or proving actual damages for any such breach or attempted breach of confidentiality, in addition to any other legal or equitable remedies that may be available to it. Exhibitor hereby acknowledges the importance of such confidential information to the Covered Parties and that the restrictions contained in this clause of this Agreement are, in view of the value of the proprietary information being protected, reasonable and necessary to protect legitimate proprietary interests of the Covered Parties and that any violation of this clause would cause irreparable harm for which the Covered Parties cannot be fully compensated by money damages alone.
  3. COMPLIANCE WITH ALL LAWS. Exhibitor agrees to comply with all applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations of the state where the Event is held, as well as all local and regional governmental agencies (including without limitation Board(s) of Health) in connection with its performance hereunder, including, without limitation, those related to health, fire prevention, public safety, business licenses, and sales tax permits.
  4. EXHIBITOR TAXES. Exhibitor shall be solely responsible for any and all sales, use, withholding, social security, workmen’s compensation or other taxes, fees, permits and surcharges imposed by any federal, state, county or municipality in connection with Exhibitor’s activities hereunder.
  5. TERMINATION BY Company. This Agreement is subject to cancellation by Company upon thirty days’ prior written notice to Exhibitor at no cost to Company except to refund any deposit paid by Exhibitor. Company may terminate this Agreement at any time upon Company’s reasonable determination of cause, including, but not limited to, the violation of any of these Terms and Conditions. If such termination is made during the Event, Exhibitor will immediately leave the Premises and any dispute regarding the existence or lack of existence of reasonable cause to terminate this Agreement will be resolved after the Event.

All notices, requests, consents, approvals and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when delivered by mail, courier or facsimile to the address, email address, or facsimile number specified below if to Company or to the address, email address, or facsimile number provided by Exhibitor on Exhibitor’s application if to Exhibitor:

Either party may change its address or facsimile number for notice purposes by giving the other party five days’ notice of the new address or facsimile number and the date upon which it will become effective.

  1. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. The parties hereby acknowledge that each of Exhibitor and any Exhibitor Personnel is an independent contractor, not an agent, employee, joint venturer or partner of Company. None of Exhibitor or any Exhibitor Personnel shall be treated as an employee of Company for any purposes including, without limitation, for federal, state or local tax purposes.
  2. FORCE MAJEURE. Company shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance arising from causes beyond Company’s reasonable control, including, without limitation, weather, acts of God, fire, flood, terrorism, strikes, failure of suppliers or subcontractors to substantially meet its performance obligations under this Agreement.
  3. MISCELLANEOUS. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Company and the applicant/Exhibitor and may not be amended or supplemented except by a writing signed by both parties. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of the location of the Event. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, then each remaining provision of this Agreement shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect. No delay or omission by either party to exercise any right or power it has under this Agreement shall impair or be construed as a waiver of such right or power. A waiver by any party of any breach or covenant shall not be construed to be a waiver of any succeeding breach or any other covenant. Any waiver must be signed by the party waiving its rights. Failure to seek redress for violation of, or to insist upon strict performance of, any covenant or condition of this Agreement shall not prevent a subsequent act which would have originally constituted a violation from having all the force and effect of an original violation. The provisions of Paragraphs 3 and 4 and all provisions providing a right to indemnification, shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement. This Agreement may be assigned, in whole or in part, by Company, but may not be assigned by Exhibitor, and any purported assignment by Exhibitor shall be void and of no effect.
