Regulations

Agreement: Each exhibitor (each such party an «Exhibitor») at the 2021 HLTH event (the «Event») hereby agrees to abide by the terms and conditions of this agreement (this «Agreement»), together with such additional terms and conditions as may be adopted by HLTH, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, with an address at 155 E 44th Street, Suite 701, New York, NY 10017 («HLTH») and provided to Exhibitor from time to time.

1. Term

1.1 This Agreement shall remain in force from the date entered into by the parties until the last day of the Event (the «Term») unless terminated earlier in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

1.2 Without prejudice to the termination rights set out in Section 6 or 7 below, either party has the right at any time to terminate this Agreement immediately by giving written notice to the other in the event that the other: (i) has committed a material breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement (including a failure to pay any amounts due under this Agreement) and has not remedied any such breach (if capable of remedy) within fourteen (14) days of being required to do so by written notice; or (ii) files a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or a petition seeking any reorganization, liquidation, dissolution, or similar relief under any applicable law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, or relief for debtors, or the admission by such other party of its inability to pay debts as they mature, or the making by such other party of an assignment for the benefit of creditors or the taking of similar action for the benefit of creditors, or (iii) suffers the entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of an order, judgment, or decree approving a petition filed against such other party seeking any reorganization, liquidation, dissolution, or similar relief under any applicable law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, or other relief for debtors and the expiration of the period, if any, allowed by applicable law in which to appeal therefrom.

1.3 If this Agreement is terminated by HLTH in accordance with Section 1.2: (i) where such termination occurs prior to commencement of the Event, Exhibitor shall be obliged to pay the Exhibit Fees and any sums outstanding as at the date of termination shall be payable by Exhibitor within fourteen (14) days of the date of HLTH’s notice of termination; (ii) HLTH shall be entitled to re-sell the exhibit space assigned to Exhibitor to a third party; (iii) there shall be no obligation on HLTH to refund any sums paid by Exhibitor pursuant to Section 5; and (iv) if applicable, any of the Exhibitor’s property at the Event shall be removed by Exhibitor immediately, failing which the property shall be removed by HLTH at the Exhibitor’s expense.

1.4 Termination of this Agreement by either party for any reason shall be without prejudice to any rights or obligations that may have accrued as at the date of such termination.

2. Assignment of Exhibit Space and Event Rights

In exchange for a stand-alone exhibit fee or for an exhibit fee included as part of sponsorship fee (in either case, referred to herein as the «Exhibit Fee»), HLTH shall provide Exhibitor with an assigned exhibit space for certain hours defined by HLTH during the Event. Where the Exhibitor informs HLTH prior to entering into the Agreement, that there is a specific exhibit space that is desired, HLTH shall use commercially reasonable efforts to allocate that specific exhibit space to the Exhibitor. However, Exhibitor acknowledges and agrees that HLTH cannot guarantee availability of any preferred exhibit space. HLTH reserves the right to assign, or relocate, exhibit areas or reconfigure the exhibition area for the betterment of the Event or otherwise in its sole discretion with no liability to you provided the exhibit area continues to be similar to the exhibit area as originally presented to the Exhibitor. Without limiting any of the foregoing, exhibit space assignments may be revoked by HLTH at any time, including onsite during the Event, upon breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Exhibit space assignment shall be conditional on payment in full of all amounts due hereunder or under any other contract with HLTH. The exhibit space assigned to Exhibitor is for the use of the named Exhibitor only. Exhibit space sharing in whole or in part with any third party is expressly prohibited.

3. Operation of Exhibits

Displays in exhibit spaces must be designed and operated in a manner that respects the rights of other Exhibitors and attendees. Displays shall not (x) block or obstruct the view of or (y) create noise or other disturbance for a neighboring or other Exhibitor. All lighting within the exhibit space must be arranged and operated so as not to be distracting to adjacent Exhibitors. Exhibitor, together with any employee, agent or independent contractor of Exhibitor, will conduct itself/himself/herself in a manner lending proper dignity, decorum and professionalism to the Event. HLTH may, in its sole discretion, remove Exhibitor, or any employee, agent or independent contractor of Exhibitor, from the premises for behavior that HLTH determines in its sole discretion to be inappropriate. Without limiting the foregoing, the following activities are expressly prohibited in exhibit spaces: preparation of food or beverages, promotional contests that require physical skill, unauthorized taking of photographs, derogatory advertisements of other Exhibitors, competitive or like-mannered businesses, or activities (including, but not limited to, materials promoting Exhibitor’s attendance at the Event) which would be deemed inaccurate, defamatory, abusive, profane or offensive by a reasonable person. Exhibitor warrants to HLTH that it is legally entitled by ownership or license to use the items exhibited or materials relating to the activities carried out in exhibit space, and that the same shall not infringe the rights of any third party, or otherwise be unlawful, or be detrimental to HLTH or its general commercial interests. Exhibitor indemnifies HLTH against all costs, expenses, damages, claims, losses and liabilities suffered or incurred by HLTH as a result of the Exhibitor carrying out any of the aforementioned prohibited activities or breaching the aforementioned warranty. HLTH reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to exclude the showing of any products in the exhibit area that are deemed objectionable. Exhibitor is responsible for payment of fees, royalties or fines for use of any third-party work that is protected by copyright, patent or trademark. Exhibit space must be staffed by at least one member of the Exhibitor’s employees at all times during scheduled exhibit hours. Unless prior written permission is received from HLTH, all Exhibitor personnel must be 21 years of age or older. Exhibitor personnel must be dressed appropriately and confine their activities on behalf of Exhibitor to the exhibit space of Exhibitor. Any food or beverage that is distributed at exhibit spaces may be subject to additional fees from the Event venue. Distribution of certain food and beverage items may be prohibited and advance approval is required. Operation of exhibit spaces is subject to any applicable rules and regulations of the Event venue and Exhibitor hereby acknowledges and agrees with the terms thereof, a copy of which has been made available to Exhibitor. The Exhibitor shall ensure that the exhibit space is left in good order and in a clean condition at the end of the Event and in accordance with the aforementioned rules and regulations, provided that in the event of any failure to do so, HLTH may elect to carry out these obligations and has sole discretion to dispose of any items remaining at the exhibit space and Exhibitor shall be liable to HLTH for any costs so incurred in doing so.

4. Terms of Payment

Payment of the Exhibit Fee is due in accordance with and as stated in the applicable invoice sent by HLTH to Exhibitor.

5. Cancellation By Exhibitor

Exhibitor agrees to actually occupy the exhibit space reserved by the Exhibitor during and throughout the Event. In the event that Exhibitor does not occupy its allocated exhibit space by the opening time on the first day of the Event, HLTH may occupy, re-allocate to a third party or cause said space to be occupied in its sole discretion without in any way releasing the Exhibitor from any liability hereunder. Furthermore, if Exhibitor does not occupy and staff its allocated exhibit space in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, all rights of Exhibitor to such exhibit space shall terminate and Exhibitor shall be obliged to pay the full Exhibit Fee, with any outstanding sums payable by the Exhibitor within fourteen (14) days. Exhibitor acknowledges and agrees that HLTH will likely sustain losses if Exhibitor cancels its commitment for some or all of its assigned exhibit space. Accordingly, Exhibitor shall forfeit the full amount of its Exhibit Fee in the event that Exhibitor cancels its commitment for some or all of its assigned exhibit space. Each party acknowledges and agrees, after taking into account the terms of this Agreement and all relevant circumstances at the date hereof, that the forfeiting of such Exhibit Fee represents a reasonable and genuine pre-estimate of the damages which would be suffered by HLTH in the event of Exhibitor’s cancellation and does not constitute a penalty. In addition, any fees included within the Exhibit Fee (or any sponsorship fee) for any attendees of Exhibitor who do not attend the Event, for any reason, are not reimbursable, in whole or in part.

6. Cancellation of Exhibitor Space by HLTH

Exhibit space may be canceled by HLTH for failure to make payments when due or failure by Exhibitor to comply with the applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement. If exhibit space is so canceled by HLTH, Exhibitor shall forfeit all payments made and HLTH shall have the right to reassign such canceled space to another exhibitor in its sole discretion without mitigation of such forfeited amounts.

7. Alteration or Cancellation of Event by HLTH

It may be necessary for HLTH to alter the advertised content, timing, date and/or location of the Event. HLTH reserves the right to do this at any time during the Term and without liability to Exhibitor, provided that the Event, as altered, is substantially similar to the Event as originally advertised. HLTH will provide Exhibitor with notice of any alterations as soon as is reasonably practicable. In the event that HLTH cancels the Event (pursuant to this Section 8) or materially alter the advertised content, timing, date and/or location of the Event, HLTH shall notify the Exhibitor thereof as soon as reasonably practicable and the Exhibitor shall be entitled to either: (i) a credit for a future event held by HLTH of your choice (up to the value of the Exhibit Fee paid by Exhibitor in respect of the Event).

8. Attendance

HLTH shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to market the Event and attract attendees, but does not guarantee specific levels of attendance at the Event or any particular exhibit space location. HLTH makes no representations or warranties, express or implied, regarding attendance levels at the Event.

9. Insurance

Exhibitor and its independent contractors each agree to obtain and maintain appropriate commercial liability insurance, with minimum coverage of $1,000,000 per incident and $3,000,000 in the aggregate, and other appropriate insurance during the Event. Such insurance shall name each of HLTH, LLC and the Event venue as additional insureds, and shall be endorsed to require not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of termination or modification to HLTH. Upon request by HLTH, Exhibitor shall provide certificates of insurance evidencing such coverage and amounts. Failure to provide evidence of satisfactory insurance upon such request shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement and HLTH shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement and forthwith re-allocate the exhibit space to a third party.

10. Security

In no case will HLTH be responsible for theft, loss or damage to Exhibitor’s products or exhibit space or display. Exhibitor agrees that it is wholly responsible for protecting its property on and off the Event premises. Exhibitor is encouraged to have guards or security cages and should insure their property (from the time it leaves their warehouse or place of business until it returns) at their own expense.

11. Taxes and Licenses

Exhibitor agrees to be responsible for obtaining any licenses, permits, or approvals required under federal, state or local law applicable to its activities at the Event. Exhibitor shall be responsible for obtaining any tax identification numbers and paying all taxes, license fees or other charges that are due or payable to any governmental authority in connection with its activities at the Event. Exhibitor is responsible for all applicable ASCAP/BMI music licensing fees.

12. Indemnification

Without prejudice to the indemnity given by Exhibitor in Section 3 above or Section 13 below, Exhibitor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless HLTH, its affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, representatives and invitees, and their respective successors, assigns and heirs, from and against any and all losses, liabilities, costs, damages, claims, or expenses, including without limitation attorneys’ fees, resulting from any claims, demands, suits or other actions arising from or out of or by reason of Exhibitor’s participation in the Event, occupancy and use of the exhibit space or by virtue of any other actions or omissions by or on behalf of the Exhibitor at the Event venue or any part thereof. In addition, HLTH and/or the Event venue shall not be held responsible for, and Exhibitor shall defend and hold HLTH and/or the Event venue harmless from, any claim or damage resulting from the loss of lighting, air conditioning, electricity, water, gas, heating, or other utilities, facilities or services not caused by the intentional wrongful act of HLTH and/or the Event venue. HLTH reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by Exhibitor, which action shall not be deemed to excuse Exhibitor’s indemnification obligations hereunder.

13. Compliance with Laws

Exhibitor must be in full compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, including, without limitation, the Americans with Disabilities Act, Bribery Act 2010 and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act 1977. Exhibitor warrants to comply with HLTH’s anti-bribery and anti-corruption policies as notified of from time to time and to report to HLTH any request or demand for any undue financial, or other advantage of any kind, received by or on behalf of the Exhibitor in connection with the performance of this Agreement. Breach of this Section 13 shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement. Exhibitor indemnifies HLTH against all costs, expenses, damages, claims, losses and liabilities suffered or incurred by HLTH as a result of the Exhibitor breaching this Section 13.

14. Force Majeure

HLTH shall not be liable for any performance delay or failure, loss, or damage due to any event or series of connected events outside its reasonable control including without limitation fire, explosion, power blackout, earthquake, flood, storm, tsunami, volcanic ashcloud, extreme adverse weather conditions, pandemic or epidemic, strikes or other industrial disputes, failure of a utility service or transport network, cyber-attacks, malicious acts of third parties, breakdown of plant or machinery, embargo, labor disputes, acts, omissions or failures of vendors, suppliers or independent contractors outside the control of HLTH, acts of terrorism, acts of civil or military authority, acts of regulatory or governmental authorities, acts of God, or other similar events (each such event, a «Force Majeure Event»). HLTH’s performance under this Agreement shall be deemed to be suspended for the period that a Force Majeure Event continues, and Exhibitor agrees that HLTH may have an extension of time for performance for the duration of that period, including where appropriate by an extension to the Term. HLTH will use commercially reasonable efforts to find a solution by which its obligations under this Agreement may be performed despite the Force Majeure Event. It is further agreed that should a Force Majeure Event makes it commercially impracticable, impossible or inadvisable for HLTH to hold the Event or portion thereof at the date, time, and place agreed: (i) HLTH shall have the right to cancel all or a portion of the Event; (ii) this Agreement shall terminate with immediate effect on written notification thereof by HLTH; (iii) Exhibitor shall and does hereby waive any claim for property or other damage or compensation; and (iv) there shall be no further liability on the part of either party to the other.

Such announcements shall not be disparaging or otherwise adverse to your business.

The parties agree that the state and federal courts in the City of New York, State of New York shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of this Agreement or any other aspect of the parties’ business relationship, irrevocably submit to the personal jurisdiction of said courts, and waive any claim that the City of New York, State of New York is an inconvenient forum or that such courts lack jurisdiction for such actions.
