APPLICATION<br />
& SELECTION PROCEDURES<br />
CATEGORIES OF EXHIBITS<br />
The <strong>AAWC</strong> will consider applications for exhibit space for<br />
products or services in the following categories:<br />
• Medical products or services relating to the practice of<br />
dermatology, surgery, aesthetic medicine and anti-aging<br />
medicine<br />
• Pharmaceuticals (both prescription and nonprescription)<br />
• Equipment and devices designed for diagnosis or treatment of<br />
dermatologic conditions<br />
• Cosmetics<br />
•Dermatology<br />
• Anti-aging medicine treatments (hormonal and non-hormonal)<br />
• Nutrition, Dietetics and health food<br />
• Scientific/medical educational publications<br />

•Products or services relating to the support of non-medical<br />
aspects of the practice of dermatology, surgery and anti-aging<br />
medicine (office equipment, record keeping equipment or<br />
services, etc)<br />
All exhibits are to be designed in such a manner that the<br />
presentation of products and services in the exhibit hall will<br />
enhance the overall educational goals of the <strong>AAWC</strong> Meeting.<br />
EVALUATION OF SPACE APPLICATION FORMS<br />
In order to preserve and maximize the educational value of the<br />
technical exhibit program, the <strong>AAWC</strong> will examine all Space<br />
Applications and evaluate the proposed exhibits to determine<br />
whether they satisfy certain basic criteria. Permission to exhibit<br />
does not constitute in any way an <strong>AAWC</strong> endorsement or<br />
approval of the exhibited products or services, or guarantee<br />
that space will be assigned.<br />
The examination and evaluation of Space Application will be<br />
performed by Euromedicom in accordance with the Board of<br />
Directors of the <strong>AAWC</strong>. In order to make these determinations,<br />
there must be available a list of the products or services<br />
proposed for the exhibition and adequate supporting data<br />
regarding the products or services.<br />
APPLICATION PROCEDURES<br />
•To apply for exhibit space, complete the Space Application<br />
Form and return it with a check for the required deposit. In<br />
order to be considered for the first assignment of exhibit<br />
space, Space Applications Form must be received in the<br />
<strong>A4M</strong> office before December 15, 2003. Space will not be<br />
assigned without a signed Space Application Form and<br />
the required deposit.Applications received after that date,<br />
will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis following<br />
the completion of the initial space assignments.<br />
• No requests for exhibit space will be accepted via telephone<br />
or email without a confirmation by postal mail or fax.<br />
• The Space Application Form must include a list of all products<br />
and services that will be exhibited at the <strong>AAWC</strong> 204.<br />
• The Product Category section on the Space Application Form<br />
must be completed.<br />
•All acceptances of Space Application and assignments of<br />
exhibit space are conditioned upon continued compliance of<br />
the products or services proposed for exhibition with the<br />
basic criteria established for technical exhibits. If at any time a<br />
product or service for which a Space Application has been<br />
accepted fails to conform to such basic criteria, the <strong>AAWC</strong><br />
may revoke its acceptance of the application and all exhibit<br />
space rental fees paid to date by the applicant may be<br />
refunded in accordance with refund policy, and the <strong>AAWC</strong><br />
shall have no further liability to the applicant with respect to<br />
the proposed exhibition.<br />
• Applications from companies that have outstanding balances<br />
due <strong>AAWC</strong>, its contractors, or vendors will not be processed<br />
without full payment of delinquent accounts.<br />
SELECTING YOUR PREFERRED SPACES<br />
The following information will assist exhibiting companies to<br />
increase their chance of securing their preferred booth location.<br />
<strong>Exhibit</strong> space is assigned under a priority system.Therefore, if<br />
you did not attend the show last year, it would be to your<br />
advantage to make your booth selections with this information<br />
in mind in order to maximize the chance of securing your preferred<br />
space selections.<br />
ASSIGNMENT OF BOOTH SPACE<br />
The first assignments of space under the priority system will be<br />
made on January, 2004.Accepted applicants will receive written<br />
confirmation of assigned space from Euromedicom. Because space<br />
may not be available to accommodate all qualified applicants,<br />
Euromedicom may have to select among qualified applicants in<br />
granting permission to exhibit.<br />
In so doing, and also in determining priority for assignment of<br />
specific exhibit locations to accepted applicants, Euromedicom<br />
will generally assign space based on priority system if the space<br />
agreement is received by December 15, 2003.<br />
Priority system determined by:<br />
• The date of reception of the space application form, with the<br />
appropriate deposit.<br />
• The financial contributions of the applicant to the educational<br />
programs of the <strong>AAWC</strong> 2004.<br />
•The participation of an applicant in the <strong>AAWC</strong> 2003 technical<br />
exhibit program.<br />
• The amount of exhibit space for which an applicant was<br />
assigned in prior meetings organized by Euromedicom.<br />
• In case of equality of support between several companies,<br />
space will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis.<br />
In the event exhibit space for the <strong>AAWC</strong> 2004 is sold out,<br />
companies will automatically be placed on a wait list.As long as<br />
space is available, Euromedicom will continue to make space<br />
assignments.<br />
All space assignments are subject to the cancellation policy<br />
deadlines, regardless of the date space was assigned.<br />
Euromedicom reserves the right to rearrange the floor plan at<br />
any time. Euromedicom reserves the right to relocate exhibitors<br />
should it become necessary for causes beyond the control<br />
of <strong>AAWC</strong>, or advisable in the best judgment of <strong>AAWC</strong>.After<br />
assignment of space, exhibitor agrees to accept relocation to<br />
other comparable space if <strong>AAWC</strong> deems such a relocation to<br />
be necessary or appropriate.<br />
5
SUBLETTING OF SPACE<br />
No part of any exhibit space assigned to an exhibitor may be<br />
reassigned, sublet, or shared with any other party by that exhibitor,<br />
other than directly related parties. Euromedicom reserves<br />
the right to exclude exhibiting companies in case of booth or<br />
space sharing or subletting.<br />
SPACE GROUPMENT<br />
Companies may choose to average priority points in order to<br />
be grouped together in the space assignment process.<br />
The process will allow divisions to contract separately while<br />
maintaining their own identities (exhibit listings, badges, etc.).<br />
Each corporate division must notify the <strong>AAWC</strong> <strong>Exhibit</strong><br />
Manager, in writing by December 15, 2003, of their desire to be<br />
grouped together with other divisions.<br />

BILLS OF LADING<br />
A bill of lading, or ‘waybill’, is your instruction to your freight<br />
carrier regarding the number of pieces, type, and destination of<br />
your shipment. Each shipment will require a separate bill of<br />
lading. Return bills of lading will be required for your outbound<br />
shipments at the close of the exposition.<br />
SHIPPING TIPS AND HELPFUL HINTS<br />
• Consolidate your materials into crates as much as possible,<br />
which will reduce handling time and the probability of loss or<br />
damage.<br />
• Make sure all cartons are clearly marked with your company<br />
name and correct booth number.<br />
• Avoid indicating contents on the outside of cartons or crates.<br />
Number and manifest each piece for dispersal on-site.<br />
• Do not ship electronic equipment such as VCRs, monitors,<br />
computers, and printers in the manufacturer's carton; consolidate<br />
these items into larger cartons or crates.<br />
