Legal entities (companies and organizations) wishing to take part in TPD as Exhibitors must register by means of the Booking Form.

This Request for Admission must be returned by the Exhibitor and/or co-exhibitor duly filled in, dated and signed.

The return of the Booking Form in no way constitutes an automatic right to participate in the Show. The Booking Form will be provisionally registered by the Organizer, who will evaluate it by applying the criteria set out in Article 5 of these Regulations.

3.2 Legal status of the Entry Form

The Booking Form has the status of a firm offer to contract by virtue of the signature of the Exhibitor. The Booking Form then acquires the status of a contract once it has been registered and confirmed in writing to the Exhibitor by the Organiser (article 5.4).

By signing the Booking Form, the Exhibitor:

• Undertakes to participate in the exhibition;

• Undertakes to abide by the articles of the present Regulations, the conditions of the Booking Form, the tariff conditions and any other contractual document which might bind him to the Organiser;

• Undertakes to pay the amounts due (article 8.1) even if, for any reasons whatsoever, he subsequently decides not to take part in the exhibition or were to be prevented from doing so. Every subsequent amendment to or revocation of the Entry Form shall be governed by the provisions of articles 7 and 9 of the present Regulations;

• Acknowledges that he is personally liable for the payment of expenses incurred by the Organiser or by third parties for equipping his stand or for any other service connected with his participation in the exhibition;

• Accepts, unless the Organiser is notified to the contrary, that the information concerning his personnel, his company and his visitors may be processed for statistical and promotional purposes by the Organiser or a third party commissioned by the Organiser.

3.3 Transferability and sub-letting

Exhibitors do not have the right to transfer or to sub-let all or part of the stand area which they have been allocated.

4. EVALUATION OF THE ENTRY FORM AND CONDITIONS OF ADMISSION

4.1 Main selection criteria

All Entry Forms submitted by the different Exhibitors will be examined by the Organiser and the Exhibition Committee, who will make the selection based mainly upon the following criteria:

• Availability of exhibition space;

• The conformity of the exhibited objects and services with the event

• The payment of the amounts due (article 8).

4.2 Conditions of Admission

Only the Organiser shall take the final decision as to whether or not to admit individuals or corporate entities as well as exhibits. It may reject any Entry Form without having to state the reasons.

No claims by Exhibitors or third parties regarding the admission or non-admission of individuals or corporate entities, or concerning exhibits, will be admitted.

Special requests concerning the stand location or requests for a competitor to be excluded cannot be accepted as a condition of entry by an Exhibitor.

4.3 Refusal of admission

The Organiser may refuse admission in particular in the following cases:

• If, based on any information made available to the Organiser, the Exhibitor jeopardizes or risks jeopardizing the smooth operation of the exhibition, the reputation or the material of the Organiser;

• If the Exhibitor fails to comply with one or more obligation(s) that he has towards the Organiser or a company connected with the latter, notably if he does not meet his financial obligations.

Refusal of admission shall be notified to the Exhibitor in writing, no later than 30 days after receipt of the Entry Form. Further refusal of admission may also be notified by the Organiser, when any relevant information is made available to the Organiser.

Refusal of admission cannot entail any consequence for the Organiser other than the reimbursement of any sum already paid. Under no circumstances will the Organiser be liable for any damages whatsoever.

4.4 Admission acceptance

Acceptance of the Booking Form shall be notified in writing by the Organiser to the Exhibitor or to the delegate. This notification alone constitutes acceptance by the Organiser of the Exhibitor, subject to the effective and full payment of the amounts due to the Organiser (article 8). Any prior exchange of letters or any documents between the Organiser and the Exhibitor cannot under any circumstances be deemed to constitute acceptance.

Upon acceptance, the settlement of the aforementioned amounts becomes due, and applies even if the Exhibitor should subsequently cancel his participation for any reason whatsoever (article 7.2).

5. ALLOCATION OF STANDS AND FLOOR PLAN

5.1 Choice of surface

The Exhibitor expresses his choice of surface through the Booking Form, by mentioning the choice directly on the application form.

5.2 Allocation of the surface area and the stand location

The Organiser alone is responsible for the allocation of the stand area and its location, taking into account the criteria listed in article 5.1 and following receipt of the payment (article 4.4).

The Organiser endeavours to establish a floor plan, taking into account the Exhibitor’s wishes regarding the stand surface area. The Organiser reserves the right to modify the dimensions or the configuration of the stands within acceptable limits and to an extent which is compatible with the layout concept and the overall presentation of the exhibition. The exercise of such a prerogative shall not under any circumstances give rise to any compensation whatsoever to the Exhibitor.

The allocation of the stand is notified to the Exhibitor by the sending of the invoice.

5.3 Occupation of the stand

Occupation of the stand area is subject to payment in full of the amounts due (article 8). Subject to these payments being made, the stand area will be made available to the Exhibitor at the beginning of the official assembly period, whose date will previously have been communicated to him, subject to the Organiser’s right to impose shorter time-limits.

6. CANCELLATION OF THE CONTRACT AND REDUCTION OF SURFACE AREA

6.1 Cancellation by the Organiser

Should it transpire that the conditions for admission are not met or cease to be met or should it transpire that admission was granted on the basis of the provision of inaccurate information or data, the Organiser may cancel the Exhibitor’s admission at any time without, in so doing, giving rise to any payment other than the possible reimbursement of the amounts paid. Under no circumstances may the Organiser be held liable for any damages whatsoever.

The Organiser is not obliged to state the reasons for its decision.

6.2 Cancellation by the Exhibitor

An Exhibitor wishing to terminate the contract binding him to the Organiser must notify the latter in writing.

The Exhibitor, however, is not thereby released from his commitments. He remains liable for:

• The total amount of the registration fees as well as the rental price of the stands surface;

• The cost of the installations ordered and already carried out;

• The cost of advertising ordered and already executed;

• Any ancillary expenses.

However, the Organiser may reduce his claims related to the booking to:

• 50% of the total rental fee, plus any ancillary expenses and any other amounts for which he is liable if the Exhibitor informs the Organiser 90 days prior to the official opening date of the Show (in the event of postponement of an edition, the date initially scheduled shall prevail).

In the event of cancellation after 11th March 2024, the total rental cost, plus any other ancillary expenses already incurred, will be charged, regardless of any rental of the stand surface to a third party by the Organiser.

The Exhibitor remains liable for 100% of the rental amount, plus payment of costs already incurred, any ancillary costs and any other amount for which he is responsible, if he notifies the Organizer less than 90 days before the official opening date of the Show (in the event of postponement of an edition, the date initially scheduled shall prevail).

In the event that all or part of the surface area left vacant by the Exhibitor is allocated to a new Exhibitor or transferred to an Exhibitor to whom a site had already been allocated (transfer carried out by the exhibition Organiser), the Exhibitor who has withdrawn will nevertheless have to pay the total amount of the rental price of the stand surface area plus any ancillary expenses.

The Organiser may dispose of a stand that remains unoccupied. The defaulting Exhibitor loses all entitlement to his stand. He is nevertheless liable for the total amount of the rental price of the stand surface area and the ancillary expenses. Furthermore, the Organiser reserves the right to pass on to the Exhibitor concerned the expenses resulting

6.3 Reduction by the Exhibitor of the surface area after stand allocation

If an Exhibitor reduces the surface area of his stand after it has been allocated to him by the Organiser, he remains liable for the total amount of the rental price of the exhibition surface area and the ancillary expenses.

The rental fees are all stated on the Booking Form.

However, such Exhibitors have the option, subject to certain conditions, of applying for reimbursement of these taxes.

VAT is applied/payable at the rate of 8.1% (subject to modification).

Unless otherwise specified, the prices quoted in these regulations do not include VAT.

8.3 Failure to observe payment deadlines

Non-payment by the due date of each invoice shall entail by right the liability to pay interest on arrears at the rate of 5% per annum without any prior notification being required.

In the event of failure to observe the deadlines or to pay the rental price, the Exhibitor shall nevertheless not be released from his liabilities. He shall remain liable for all the items set out in article 6.2 which includes also the cost for technical installations and/or other services which he has ordered and which have already been executed.

8.4 Complaints concerning invoices

Each complaint concerning an invoice must be lodged no later than 30 days after the date of invoicing. Such a complaint does not affect in any way the obligation of the Exhibitor to pay other invoices which are payable at the time of the complaint and do not entitle him to suspend any payment whatsoever to the Organiser or to suspend any other obligation whatsoever towards the latter.

After expiry of this time-limit no complaint will be entertained and the payments shall be due to the Organiser.

18.2 Collection of personal data by the Exhibitors

As a preliminary point, all Exhibitors are reminded that the collection and use of personal data for promotional purposes can be potentially sensitive from the point of view of data protection law and that the consequences of non-compliance with the regulations in force can be significant.

Each Exhibitor is authorised to collect personal data from visitors to its stand and shall ensure, if necessary by requesting identity documents from the customers concerned, that this data is accurate. In any event, the collection and processing of sensitive personal data and profiling activities by each Exhibitor is prohibited.

18.3 Communication of personal data by the Organiser

Provided it has first obtained the consent of the persons concerned, the Organiser may communicate to Exhibitors, on commercial terms to be agreed separately, the personal data of visitors to the event concerned or to any other event.

Each Exhibitor acknowledges and accepts that the Organiser, if it provides this personal data, will provide it "as is" and without guarantee of any kind whatsoever. Within the legally authorised limits, the Organiser excludes all liability in connection with the use, by each Exhibitor, of the personal data provided to them.

Exhibitors are liable for any damage caused to other stands, the exhibition installations, to the person and property of other parties, including to the Organiser, whether the damage has been caused, in any manner whatsoever, through their own fault or by a third party commissioned on their behalf.

All risks are entirely the responsibility of the Exhibitors, who will be able to take out individual insurance policies if they consider it necessary (third-party liability for damage caused to third parties and premises, accidents, theft, etc.).

The Organiser declines any liability for the loss or disappearance of, damage to or theft of goods and exhibits in any circumstances and at all times.

20. EXPULSION

Any breach of one of the clauses of the present Exhibition Regulations, instructions and provisions of the Organiser may entail the immediate, temporary or definitive expulsion of the offending Exhibitor, without prejudice to any other sanctions or liabilities incurred by him and without him being able to claim any reimbursement or compensation whatsoever.

The expelled Exhibitor remains liable for the payment of the amounts due (article 7), for all the expenses already incurred, plus all the ancillary expenses. The same applies to co-Exhibitors.

The Organiser will then be able to dispose of the stand site thus vacated as it thinks fit.

21. FORCE MAJEURE

For imperative reasons or in the event of force majeure (*), the Organiser is entitled to postpone the holding of the exhibition, to shorten or extend its duration or to cancel it without Exhibitors being entitled to withdraw or to claim any compensation.

In the event of cancellation by the Organiser for cause of force majeure, the rental price of the exhibition surface area remains due up to the amount which corresponds to the expenses incurred by the Organiser. Any remaining funds available, if applicable, will be reimbursed to Exhibitors after the deduction of expenses. Conversely, Exhibitors may not claim any compensation for the failure to hold the exhibition.

Any cancellation by an Exhibitor for cause of force majeure (*) must be notified in writing to the Organiser as rapidly as possible, mentioning the existence of the impediment and its consequences upon his ability to take part.

If the Exhibitor is prevented from taking part due to force majeure, the cost of the surface area rental will be reimbursed as well as the other costs to which he is committed, subject to the retention of any registration fees or other fees for services already provided by the Organiser.

(*) Force majeure cases: any external, unforeseeable and extraordinary event, independent of the will of the parties, beyond their control and unable to be prevented by the parties, despite all possible reasonable efforts to the contrary such as, for example, unforeseeable political, natural, economic or health-related events. Influenza epidemics or any other difficulty of a public health nature are not considered to be a case of force majeure, except in the case where the event is forbidden from taking place by a decision from the authorities.

22. CANCELLATION OF THE EXHIBITION

In the event that the Organiser should decide not to hold the exhibition for any reason whatsoever but which does not constitute a case of force majeure, the Exhibitor shall be only entitled to reimbursement of the instalments and invoices already paid, without the Exhibitor being able to claim any entitlement to any compensation whatsoever owing to the failure to hold the exhibition.

23. SETTLEMENT OF DISPUTES

In the event of a dispute and prior to any procedure, the Exhibitor or the co-Exhibitor undertakes to submit his complaint to the Organiser before the closure of the exhibition. The Organiser will make a decision together with the Exhibition Committee.
