The exhibitor’s acceptance of these Rules and Regulations constitutes a release of ACA from any claims for damages in excess of said amount. 38) ACA shall not be liable for failure to perform its obligations hereunder due to strikes, riots, acts of God, pandemics or any other cause beyond its control.

39) All regulations as stated in this brochure are part of the legally binding booth reservation contract. In signing, the exhibitor agrees to abide by the regulations as stated herein and on the Booth Reservation Contract.

Photography and Video Notice Still photography and video recording of any exhibit or function is prohibited within the exhibit hall, meeting rooms and lobbies. Exhibitors may take pictures of only their own booth before and after show hours only. Any other photography must be first approved by Show Management.

In the event ACA determines an exhibitor is in violation of any of these Rules and Regulations, ACA Show Management will personally contact the senior exhibitor staff member present to advise that individual of the details of the violation. ACA will allow a reasonable amount of time for the exhibitor to correct the violation. If the infraction is not corrected within the time allowed, the exhibitor’s booth may, at the sole discretion of ACA Show Management, be closed and/or dismantled without compensation to the exhibitor, and the exhibitor may forfeit the right to exhibit at future ACA events. All matters not covered by these Rules and Regulations shall be within the discretion of ACA Show Management. These Rules and Regulations may be amended at any time by ACA Show Management. Any such amendments shall be provided to, and shall be binding upon, all exhibitors.
