PennWell requires that exhibitors have sufficient insurance. Following is a section of the
PennWell rules and regulations that can be found on the Exhibit Space Agreement:
Liability. Neither PennWell nor its agents or representatives will be responsible for any
injury, loss, or damage that may occur to Exhibitor or to Exhibitor’s employees, invitees,
licensees, or guests, or their property, from any cause whatsoever. Under no
circumstances shall PennWell or its agents or representatives be liable for (i) any
special, indirect, incidental, or consequential loss or damage whatsoever, or (ii) any loss
of profit, loss of use, loss of opportunity, or any cost or damage resulting from any such
loss, even if PennWell has been advised or is aware of the possibility of such damages
and regardless of whether such liability sounds in contract, tort, negligence, strict
liability, warranty or otherwise. Exhibitor acknowledges that the risk allocations of this
Section are reasonable based on the understanding that Exhibitor shall obtain, at its own
expense, adequate insurance against any such injury, loss, or damage. PennWell shall
not be liable for failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement as a result of
strikes, riots, acts of God, or any other cause beyond its control. Anyone visiting,
viewing, or otherwise participating in Exhibitor’s booth or exhibit is deemed to be the
invitee, licensee, or guest of Exhibitor, and not the invitee, licensee, or guest of PennWell.
Exhibitor assumes full responsibility and liability for the actions of its agents, employees,
independent contractors, or representatives, whether acting within or without the scope
of their authority, and agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold PennWell, the Exhibition
Venue, and their respective privies, harmless from and against claims resulting directly
or indirectly from the actions or omissions of Exhibitor and/or Exhibitors agents,
employees, independent contractors, or representatives, whether within or without the
scope of authority.
Insurance. For the term of this Agreement, Exhibitor shall at all times maintain
insurance sufficient to cover the liabilities of Exhibitor under this Agreement. The
amount and scope of such insurance shall be reasonably satisfactory to PennWell. Such
insurance shall also provide coverage for Exhibitor’s contractual obligations to defend,
indemnify, and hold harmless, as stated in this Agreement. Exhibitor’s insurer shall
confirm to PennWell that such insurance cannot be cancelled or changed without thirty
(30) days prior written notice to PennWell. Exhibitor agrees to provide PennWell a
suitable certificate verifying that the required insurance is and will remain in force for
the duration of the Exhibition.
