Every effort will be made to avoid locating competing companies in adjacent
spaces. In the event no competitors are listed on the Application for Exhibit
Space, MPA will not be held responsible. In the event that competing
organizations are placed in adjacent spaces, companies will be allowed to move
to another available booth within the same category or a lower booth category
with no refund provided for the difference in booth fees.

No exhibitor may sublet, assign or share any part of the space allocated
without the consent of MPA.

Any one company that wishes to utilize more than one booth will receive a five
percent discount off the total booth fee. Simply check the multiple booth discount
option on the Application for Exhibit Space to take advantage of this great offer.

SETUP OF EXHIBIT
Thursday, Feb. 24, 12:30–3:30 p.m. • Friday, Feb. 25, 8–10 a.m.
Booth space must be cleared of cartons and packing materials by 10 a.m. on
Friday, Feb. 25, for cleaning of the Renaissance Ballroom prior to opening at noon.

DISMANTLING AND REMOVAL OF EXHIBITS
Saturday, Feb. 26, 1:30–3:30 p.m.
All exhibitors must have their displays dismantled and removed from the
Renaissance Ballroom by 3:30 p.m. on Saturday. Michigan Pharmacists
Association will not be responsible for any exhibits not removed from the
Renaissance Ballroom by 3:30 p.m. on Saturday. Convention & Show Services
has the authority, without obtaining consent from exhibitors, to assign
carriers to remove displays from the Renaissance Ballroom if the exhibitors’
designated carriers do not pick up the materials on time. When necessary to
re-route shipments via a common carrier, trucking charges will be assessed to
exhibitors concerned. When no disposition is made, materials will be returned
to Convention & Show Services’ warehouse to await shipping instructions, and
the exhibitor will be charged accordingly.

All exhibit and display work is done by union personnel. There are six (6) areas
of working personnel: teamsters/riggers, carpenters, electricians, plumbers,
stagehands and projectionists. All exhibitors must comply with guidelines to
conform to union jurisdictions. Exhibitors are allowed to do the technical work
on their machines (e.g., fine-line balancing and programming). In an 8'x10'
booth, the exhibitor may erect their own display if it can be done by the
exhibitor (one person), without the use of tools and within one-half hour.
Exhibitors may carry in small items if these can be easily carried by one man in
one trip without the aid of flat trucks, dollies, etc. The Detroit Marriott may
direct you to the loading docks. See the “Shipping Materials” section of the
Exhibitor Prospectus.

Any exhibitor failing to occupy contracted space is not relieved of the obligation
of paying the full rental of such space, as documented in the signed
application. If a booth is not occupied by the opening of exhibits for attendees,
the Association may repossess exhibit space.

Exhibit booths must be staffed during all exhibit hours by qualified employees
of the exhibitor who must be able to explain or demonstrate the products or
services on display. Products or services displayed must be related to the
practice of pharmacy, merchandising or management of the pharmacy and of
an educational nature.

The rights and privileges of an exhibitor shall not be infringed upon by any
other exhibitor. To ensure adequate staffing while limiting the probability of
intruding upon the space of another exhibitor, each booth will be limited to four
representatives throughout the convention. MPA reserves the right to restrict
exhibits which may be objectionable or to order the removal of any portion of
an exhibit which, in the judgment of MPA, is detrimental and detracts from the
general order of the exhibits. The restriction includes articles, conduct, dress,
printed matter or anything objectionable to the exhibit as a whole. Due to
safety and health considerations, no one under 16 years of age will be
admitted into the Exhibit Hall.

It is the policy of MPA that the promotion of tobacco and tobacco-related
products is banned from the Exhibit Hall. There is absolutely no smoking
allowed in the Exhibit Hall at any time.

Canvassing or distributing advertising material outside the exhibitor’s own
space is not permitted.

Convention-issued badges must be worn at all times during exhibit hours.
Those not wearing convention badges will be subject to removal from the
Exhibit Hall. Onsite changes to badges will be accommodated at no cost upon
initial check in only. The number of badges issued will be limited to a total of
four for the convention, unless additional representatives are paid for in
advance. Representatives are allowed to rotate in and out of the exhibit hall
using the four badges issued.

Exhibitors may attend educational programs and receive continuing education
credit at a reduced rate. Please register in advance. A registration fee of $75
will apply for each person requesting continuing education credit. Exhibitors
receiving continuing education credit should pick up their registration packet at
the exhibitor registration desk located in the Renaissance Foyer during
exhibitor registration and show hours.

All exhibitors, whether pre-registered or registering for the first time, must
check in at the MPA Exhibitor Registration Desk located in the Renaissance Foyer
each day to receive a name badge and exhibitor packet. We recommend checking
in on Friday from 8 until 10:30 a.m. and on Saturday from 9 until 10 a.m. MPA
staff will verify your registration and provide materials related to the show.

Absolutely no food or beverage may be brought into the Exhibit Hall unless
ordered from the hotel’s catering department. If an attempt is made to bring
food or beverage into the Exhibit Hall, it will be confiscated by security and
destroyed.
