Cancellations received by that date will be subject to a 50% cancellation fee. No refunds will be given for space cancelled or reduced less than 60 days prior to the meeting or after January 27, 2012.

No Show Exhibitors

Exhibiting companies that reserve exhibit space and do not provide ACMG with written notice of their inability to exhibit by March 21, 2012, will automatically be charged an additional lounge fee of $500, and are still responsible for paying any unpaid balance due of their exhibit fees.

Assignment of Space

For companies that submit an application/contract on or prior to November 1, 2011 a Priority Point System is used to assign exhibit space. Booth assignments for applications received after that date will be assigned to the remaining space, if any, in the order of date received.

Priority Points are accumulated as follows:

10 points for application received by October 7, 2011
5 points for application received by November 1, 2011
5 points for each year exhibited since 2002
5 points for each 100 square feet reserved
10 points for sponsorship, advertising or ACMG Foundation support of $5,000 or less – previous year (current year if commitment made at the time of booth space application)
20 points for sponsorship, advertising or ACMG Foundation support of $5,001 - $10,000 – previous year (current year if commitment made at the time of booth space application)
30 points for sponsorship, advertising or ACMG Foundation support of $10,001 - $20,000 – previous year (current year if commitment made at the time of booth space application)
40 points for sponsorship, advertising or ACMG Foundation support over $20,000 – previous year (current year if commitment made at the time of booth space application)
50 points for companies designated as ACMG Foundation Corporate Partners

To be assigned exhibit space via the Priority Point system, the Exhibit Space Application and Contract, and the deposit must be received on or prior to November 1, 2011. If two or more companies have the same number of points, they will be assigned in the order in which the application is received – or based on booth size and/or location of competitors.

No exhibit space is assigned until after the November 1 cutoff date for Priority Point accrual. After November 1 and the initial space assignment, all remaining space will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis to the space remaining.

Every effort is made to assign booths in accordance with exhibitor’s preference but no guarantee can be made as assignments depend on Priority Points, location of competitors and other requests. Please keep in mind that there are many organizations applying for the same exhibit space. When noting your preferred booth location, try not to concentrate all of your choices in one area. If at the time of making an assignment for a particular organization, the requested space(s) are no longer available, the best space available will be assigned.

ACMG reserves the right to make adjustments to the floor plan and/or reassign an exhibitor’s location as deemed necessary for the overall good of the exhibition or for safety issues. Affected exhibitors will be consulted in such situations. Questions about the exhibit area or booth arrangement should be directed to ACMG Exhibits Management at (703) 921-0333.

PLEASE NOTE: The receipt of your deposit does not guarantee the assignment of exhibit space. If ACMG chooses not to or cannot assign your organization a space, a full refund of the deposit will be provided.
