Full payment is due within 45 days of contract submission until March 13, 2020. Thereafter all payments must be received at the time of contract submission. Onsite payments will not be accepted.
CANCELLATION POLICY:
All requests for cancellation or reduction of exhibit space must be made in writing and shall become effective upon receipt by ASAE. Due to the difficulty of determining and detailing the losses which would result from cancellation of exhibit space, the Exhibitor agrees to pay the following as liquidated damages (and not as a penalty) if the Exhibitor cancels its exhibit space: Full refund of all payments less a $150 administrative fee will be granted if written notice is received by ASAE no later than January 31, 2020. A 50% refund of total exhibit space fees (not just the initial deposit), minus a $150 processing fee, will be granted upon written notice received between February 1, 2020 to March 1, 2020. Commencing March 2, 2020, no refunds will be made.
IF EXHIBIT BOOTH SPACE IS REDUCED, a fee equal to 20% of the difference in the cost between the originally assigned exhibit space and the cost of the reduced exhibit space requested will be charged if written notice is received by ASAE on or before January 31, 2020; if written notice is received on or after February 1, 2020 but before March 1, 2020 a fee equal to 50% of the difference in cost between the originally assigned exhibit space and the cost of the reduced exhibit space requested will be charged. Commencing March 2, 2020, exhibitors requesting reductions in space will receive no refund for any difference in cost. Furthermore, ASAE has full authority to relocate any Exhibitor after downsizing of space.
