All exhibitors are subject to review and approval by the Council on Dental Education. The Association reserves the right to invite offers for use of space at such Convention from individual exhibitors who had space at the 2007 convention, but is not required to extend such invitation to any individual exhibitor. The extension of such invitation is based upon an exhibitor’s acceptability for further participation in the Association’s Convention, with the Association being the sole judge as to such acceptability. Exhibitors should send a minimum of their first, second and third choices from the floor plan (up to 6 are offered) indicated on Application to Arizona Dental Association, 3193 N. Drinkwater Blvd., Scottsdale AZ 85251. Former exhibitors must return their contract and full payment within thirty (30) days after the final day of convention (April 15, 2007) or forfeit their senior status.

CANCELLATION POLICIES The Arizona Dental Association reserves the right to reject any Application for Exhibit Space for any reason whatsoever. Exhibitors wishing to cancel contracted space must do so in writing, postmarked by January 5, 2008. Cancellations postmarked after January 5, 2008 are subject to a $500 per booth cancellation fee.

All exhibitors are required to order personnel badges in advance of convention. Deadline for badge orders is March 1, 2008.

Exhibitor must show company ID and photo for badge (e.g., business card, company photo ID). All exhibits personnel must be bona fide full-time employees of the exhibiting company or representatives who receive commission, brokerage, or salary from the exhibitor. False certification of individuals as exhibit representatives, misuse of exhibitor badges, or any other method or device used to assist unauthorized persons to gain admission to the exhibit floor, may be subject to a fine of the applicable registration fee and/or expulsion of the exhibitor from the exposition and barring him/her from further entrance to the floor without obligation on the part of the Association for refund of any fees. Upon the exercise of this authority, the exhibitor, his employees and/or agents waives any rights or claims for damages against the Arizona Dental Association arising out of the enforcement of this paragraph.
