Dear Valued Sponsor,

We invite you to join us at the 2018 Blackbaud K–12 User Conference for Independent

Schools from July 25–27 at the Sheraton in Seattle, Washington.

As a sponsor or exhibitor at the Blackbaud K–12 User Conference, you’ll have the

opportunity to showcase your brand, products, and expertise to hundreds of attending K–12

professionals.

We offer a wide range of sponsorship and exhibitor opportunities to suit your needs. I

encourage you to review the enclosed details and respond quickly, as we expect to sell out.

For more than 30 years, Blackbaud has been delivering the most innovative solutions and

services to private school communities. I hope you’ll join us as a sponsor or exhibitor. This is

a great chance to get in front of your existing and potential new customers.

If you’d like more information, feel free to contact me at [email protected].

On behalf of the entire Blackbaud K–12 team, I look forward to partnering with you.

Andria MullaneyManager, Blackbaud K–12 Partner Program

—MATHIEU FARRUGIA, IT Director, International School of the Peninsula

“Exposure—it’s been fantastic. We’re getting the chance to be in front of great schools from across the country.”

—BRIAN MURRAY, Director of North America, REACH

“This is my third time. What I look forward to the most is networking with other colleagues, learning where the products are going, and seeing how that will impact our school.”

—BATULA GRANT, Research & Communications Technology Manager, Hillfield Strathallan College

“I’ve been coming to the Blackbaud Conference for almost a decade. I just love to hear new things, meet people who have become my friends over the years, collaborate, and come back with new ideas.”

Terms and ConditionsContract for Space1. Applicants for exhibit space are required to submit the

formal online application and agree to the terms provided. The application for space with full payment of exhibit fees, along with formal notice of assignment and acceptance by Blackbaud, constitutes a contract for the right to use this space.

2. In the event of fire, strike, or other uncontrollable circumstances, Blackbaud will have no liability or obligation to make any refund. However, Blackbaud will make every effort to refund any portion of the exhibit fees not expended or committed.

3. If any exhibitor does not follow the rules and regulations as set by Blackbaud, the contract will be terminated. In the event of such default by the exhibitor, the exhibitor will forfeit the amount paid for space regardless of whether or not Blackbaud enters into a further lease of the space involved.

4. Blackbaud reserves the right to refuse rental of display space to any company whose display of goods or services is not, in the opinion of Blackbaud, compatible with the general character of Blackbaud and objectives of the exposition.

5. No exhibits will be permitted that interfere with other exhibitors or impede the access to them or impede the free use of the aisle. Booth personnel, including demonstrators, are required to confine their activities within their exhibitor’s booth space.

6. No open flame of any kind is permitted in hotel and conference areas. All electrical apparatus must be UL. The Sheraton Seattle Hotel reserves the right to insist on dismantling any booth it deems a fire or safety risk.

7. Exhibitors shall not injure or deface the walls or floors of the building, the booths, or the equipment of the booths. Nothing shall be posted on, tacked, nailed, screwed, or otherwise attached to columns, walls, floors, or other parts of the building or furniture. Distribution of promotional gummed stickers or labels is strictly prohibited. Any damage

in connection therewith will be at the expense of the exhibitor. No kind of sound-making equipment may be set up or used in exhibit booths without prior approval from Blackbaud.

8. All giveaway items must be distributed within the exhibitor’s booth. Items that cannot be stored in sufficient quantities within this space are not appropriate. Distribution must not interfere with the orderly conduct of business by other participants.

9. Restriction on selling: Sales of any kind involving the exchange of currency for goods received are prohibited during the exhibition without prior approval from Blackbaud.

10. Irregular canvassing: Distribution of circulars or promotional material may be made only within the booth assigned to the exhibitor presenting the material.

11. All exhibitors are responsible for informing their personnel and their authorized representatives of the requirements of these rules.

Cancellation PolicyExhibitors may cancel this agreement at any time in writing via e-mail to [email protected] and must be dated on or before 11:59 pm ET on April 13, 2018 to receive a full refund less a $75 USD cancellation processing fee and June 15, 2018 to receive a 50% refund less a $75 USD cancellation processing fee. No refunds will be granted after June 15, 2018. No refunds will be granted for no-shows.

Installation and Dismantling of ExhibitsExhibitors agree to set up booths between 4:00 and 6:00 p.m. on July 24, 2018 and between 7:00 and 9:30 a.m. on July 25, 2018. All exhibits must be set up in accordance with these rules. Exhibits must be dismantled and removed by 7:00 p.m. on July 26, 2018. Failure to comply could result in your company being ineligible to exhibit in future shows. Dates and times are subject to change.

LiabilityThe exhibitor agrees to assume all risks of loss, injury, theft, or damage of any kind or nature whatsoever to any exhibit or component thereof, including any goods, merchandise, papers, and business records, or other property that may be in or come into the exhibitor’s possession during the course of the Conference or in the course of assembling or dismantling the exhibit. The exhibitor assumes all liability for damage to property, person, or persons arising from accidental or other causes incidental to movement and operation of the exhibit and hereby releases Blackbaud, its contractors, and the Boston Marriott Copley Place Hotel.

Regulation EnforcementBlackbaud has full power to interpret and enforce all regulations for the Conference and the power to make amendments and/or further regulations that are considered necessary for the proper conduct of the show. Such decisions will be binding on exhibitors. Failure to comply with these or any other regulations or amendments may be sufficient cause for Blackbaud to require the immediate removal of the exhibit and/or the offending exhibitor. This may result in forfeiture of rights to exhibit at future Blackbaud events together with all fees paid. Blackbaud may lease any space so forfeited to another exhibitor. Blackbaud reserves the right to reject any or all applications. Any person or group of persons asked to leave the exhibit hall by management or security will do so at once and will not return until/unless authorized to do so.
