Terms and Conditions
Acceptance/Entire Agreement: The participation of each
sponsor (“Sponsor”) in Citrix Summit 2016 (“Conference”)
is subject to acceptance by Citrix Systems, Inc. (“Citrix”),
through its conference management designee, Aimia
Proprietary Loyalty U.S. Inc. (“Conference Management”)
and Sponsor’s compliance with these terms and conditions
(“Agreement”). With the exception of these Terms and
Conditions, no contract is created until Citrix or Conference
Management, on behalf of Citrix, countersigns such
contract (“Contract”); until such time, this Agreement will
constitute the entire agreement between Sponsor, on
the one hand, and Citrix and Conference Management,
on the other hand, concerning its subject matter, and
may only be modified in a writing signed by both parties.
Citrix may withdraw its acceptance at any time prior to
the Conference by providing a refund of the total fee
paid to the Sponsor, if Citrix determines that Sponsor or
its product is ineligible to participate. The exhibit dates,
benefits, hours and venue may be modified by information
provided by Citrix or Conference Management to the
Sponsor in writing. By registering for this event I am
providing permission for Citrix to utilize my image and/or
any feedback provided in future event marketing efforts.
Code of Conduct: By registering for this event, I confirm
my acknowledgement that I am participating in this
event at my own risk. I agree that I will not hold any of the
following parties—Citrix Systems, Inc., its agency Aimia
Proprietary Loyalty U.S. Inc., or any of their respective
affiliates, officers, directors, agents, employees, clients
or representatives—liable for any claims arising from or
related to my participation in the event, except for claims
for personal injury or death caused solely and directly
by such party. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN
NO EVENT SHALL ANY SUCH PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INDIRECT
DAMAGES.
Event Rules: Sponsor agrees to be bound by the terms
of this Agreement as well as the Conference rules and
regulations as may be established or provided from time
to time by Citrix and/or Conference Management. Sponsor
agrees that Citrix and/or Conference Management may
terminate all rights and benefits associated with the
Conference, without liability or refund, if Sponsor does not
follow such rules and regulations, which are incorporated
herein by this reference. Specifically, Sponsor shall
comply with move in and move out deadlines. Sponsor
acknowledges that a failure to comply with such deadlines
may result in forfeiture of rights and benefits or the
removal of Sponsor materials. Sponsor shall be liable for
all storage and handling charges resulting from failure to
remove Sponsor materials from the Conference after the
move out deadline. Sponsor is responsible for keeping the
aisles at the Conference free of congestion caused by its
demonstrations or other promotional activities. Sponsor
agrees not to damage or deface the walls or floors of the
Conference venue. Sponsor representatives are restricted
to personnel engaged in the display, demonstrations,
application or sale of Sponsor’s products and services.
Citrix and/or Conference Management reserves the right to
terminate Sponsor participation for any action or behavior
deemed inappropriate by Citrix in its sole discretion or for
any breach of this Agreement or the Conference rules and
regulations or local laws, and in such event all fees paid to
Citrix by Sponsor will be considered nonrefundable.
Cancellation: Citrix may cancel all or any part of the
Conference based on its assessment of market conditions
or requirements, in its sole discretion, or due to any reason
beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to
natural or public disaster, act of God, venue construction,
insufficient participation, government regulation or similar
reasons. In such case, Citrix will refund to Sponsor any
space fees already paid as Sponsor’s sole and exclusive
remedy. Sponsor will have no further recourse against
Citrix or Conference Management. Citrix may cancel
Sponsor’s participation for cause if Sponsor engages
in any inappropriate behavior, violates any of the terms
of this Agreement or violates the Conference rules and
regulations or local laws. In either such case, any payments
made by Sponsor are considered fully earned by Citrix and
are nonrefundable. Sponsor will have no further recourse
against Citrix or Conference Management.
Indemnity: Under no circumstances will Citrix, Conference
Management, their respective employees, officers,
directors, agents and subcontractors and all of their
respective affiliates or the Conference venue (collectively
the “Conference Providers”) be liable for lost profits or
other indirect, incidental, consequential or exemplary
damages for any acts or omissions with respect to the
Conference, nor will they be liable for any errors in any
listing or descriptions or for omitting any Sponsor from the
Conference guide or any other materials.
Limitation of liability: None of Conference Providers shall
have any liability whatsoever to Sponsor for any losses,
injury (including death) expenses or damage to Sponsor,
its agents, representatives, contractors, guests, invitees or
any of their property, relating to or arising out of the acts
of any sponsor, or their respective agents, representatives,
contractors, participants, guests or invitees. In no
event shall Citrix’s or Conference Management’s total
liability hereunder exceed the amounts paid by Sponsor
hereunder.
Hold harmless: Sponsor agrees to defend, indemnify, and
hold harmless the Conference Providers and those lawfully
in the venue from and against any claim, loss, liability,
or damage suffered due to Sponsor construction or
maintenance of an unsafe exhibit, and/or the negligence
or misconduct of Sponsor or its agents, or Sponsor’s
breach of any commitment made, or due to any other act
of omission of Sponsor.
Insurance: Sponsor shall maintain proper insurance
coverage for its property and liability, and represents and
warrants that it has obtained adequate insurance of at
least $1 million to cover its potential liability hereunder.
Release: Sponsor acknowledges that the Conference
may be reproduced or recorded and authorizes Citrix and
its designees to record, transcribe, modify or reproduce
and distribute in any form and for any purpose any such
recording of the Conference which may include Sponsor,
its employees or agents, and Sponsor agrees to execute
any additional release presented by Citrix. Sponsor hereby
releases Citrix and its designees from and waives all claims
it or its employees or agents may possess, now or in the
future, in connection with such activities, and specifically
waives any statutory restriction on future claims or moral
rights.
Benefits and license: Citrix will provide exhibit space
(“Space”) at the Conference for the Sponsor to display
its qualified products and services in the Solutions Expo

Exhibitor Service Kit (“Exhibitor Kit”), each as maybe
amended from time to time by Citrix. Sponsor grants to
Conference Providers the right to use the Sponsor name
and logo in promotion and production of the Conference.
Space assignment: Citrix or Conference Management will
assign the Space, and Citrix and Conference Management
reserve the right to change or modify the Space at any
time. The Space is for the Sponsor use only, and Sponsor
may not assign or sublease any portion or the Space
(including to an affiliated company) without Citrix’s prior
written consent. Sponsor must fully occupy the Space and
provide displays and equipment meeting Citrix’s standards.
At the Conference, Sponsor cannot exchange money or
goods without the prior written consent of Citrix, nor may
it assist other parties in soliciting business without that
consent.
Presentations by entertainers, spokespersons, or
models will be allowed, pending advance Conference
Management approval. They must be confined to the
Sponsor’s contracted booth space, or the 4’’ aisle area
directly in front of Sponsor’s booth. No staff, presenters, or
entertainers will be allowed to represent Sponsor in other
areas of the Solutions Expo or overall conference property.
If they are found outside contracted booth space they will
be removed from the Conference.
Own risk: Sponsor shall have the sole responsibility for any
loss of its equipment, materials or proprietary information,
or any loss including any subrogation claims by its insurers.
Persons visiting, viewing or otherwise participating in
Sponsor’s Space shall be deemed invitees of the Sponsor
and not those of any of the Conference Providers.
Warranties disclaimer: SPONSOR ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT ACCESS TO THE SPACE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND

MAKES ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, ORAL
OR WRITTEN, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, IN CONNECTION
WITH THE SPACE OR CONFERENCE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
Relationship of the parties: Nothing in this Agreement
or any Contract shall be construed as creating an
employer-employee relationship, a partnership or joint
venture between Sponsor, on the one hand, and Citrix
and/or Conference Management, on the other hand. The
parties shall at all times have an independent contractor
relationship.
Third Party Contractors: Citrix or Conference
Management may require the Sponsor to use third
party contractors designated by Citrix or Conference
Management (“Designated Contractors,” as listed
in the Toolkit and Exhibitor Kit). Those Designated
Contractors act solely as independent contractors. Citrix
and Conference Management are not responsible for
any performance, acts or omissions of such Designated
Contractors.
Conference materials: The Toolkit and Exhibitor Kit
and any other planning and marketing material or
methodologies distributed to the Sponsor related to
the planning or execution of this Conference are owned

from Conference Management. The Toolkit and Exhibitor
Kit will be available from Conference Management prior to
the Conference.
Laws and rules: Sponsor shall comply with all applicable
laws, regulations, and ordinances in connection with

its local equivalent, and the terms, conditions, and rules
issued by Conference Management.
Third party proprietary rights: Sponsor will not violate
the proprietary rights of third parties in connection with its
participation with the Conference.
Taxes and licenses: Sponsor shall be solely responsible
for obtaining any licenses and permits, and payment of all
taxes (including sales and use taxes), license fees or other

Miscellaneous: Citrix’s and/or Conference Management’s
rights in this Agreement may not be waived without Citrix’s
and/or Conference Management’s (as applicable) prior
written consent in writing. Sponsor may not assign the
Agreement without prior written consent from Citrix and
Conference Management. If any term of this Agreement
is declared invalid or unenforceable, the remainder shall
continue in full force and effect. This Agreement shall be
binding upon the permitted successors, and assignees of

regard to its conflicts of law rules. The Ninth Judicial Court
in and for the County of Orange, Florida, or the Federal

fees.

Terms and Conditions
Acceptance/Entire Agreement: The participation of each
sponsor (“Sponsor”) in Citrix Synergy 2016 (“Conference”)
is subject to acceptance by Citrix Systems, Inc. (“Citrix”),
through its conference management designee, Aimia
Proprietary Loyalty U.S. Inc. (“Conference Management”)
and Sponsor’s compliance with these terms and conditions
(“Agreement”). With the exception of these Terms and
Conditions, no contract is created until Citrix or Conference
Management, on behalf of Citrix, countersigns such
contract (“Contract”); until such time, this Agreement will
constitute the entire agreement between Sponsor, on
the one hand, and Citrix and Conference Management,
on the other hand, concerning its subject matter, and
may only be modified in a writing signed by both parties.
Citrix may withdraw its acceptance at any time prior to
the Conference by providing a refund of the total fee
paid to the Sponsor, if Citrix determines that Sponsor or
its product is ineligible to participate. The exhibit dates,
benefits, hours and venue may be modified by information
provided by Citrix or Conference Management to the
Sponsor in writing. By registering for this event I am
providing permission for Citrix to utilize my image and/or
any feedback provided in future event marketing efforts.
Code of Conduct: By registering for this event, I confirm
my acknowledgement that I am participating in this
event at my own risk. I agree that I will not hold any of the
following parties—Citrix Systems, Inc., its agency Aimia
Proprietary Loyalty U.S. Inc., or any of their respective
affiliates, officers, directors, agents, employees, clients
or representatives—liable for any claims arising from or
related to my participation in the event, except for claims
for personal injury or death caused solely and directly
by such party. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN
NO EVENT SHALL ANY SUCH PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INDIRECT
DAMAGES.
Event Rules: Sponsor agrees to be bound by the terms
of this Agreement as well as the Conference rules and
regulations as may be established or provided from time
to time by Citrix and/or Conference Management. Sponsor
agrees that Citrix and/or Conference Management may
terminate all rights and benefits associated with the
Conference, without liability or refund, if Sponsor does not
follow such rules and regulations, which are incorporated
herein by this reference. Specifically, Sponsor shall
comply with move in and move out deadlines. Sponsor
acknowledges that a failure to comply with such deadlines
may result in forfeiture of rights and benefits or the
removal of Sponsor materials. Sponsor shall be liable for
all storage and handling charges resulting from failure to
remove Sponsor materials from the Conference after the
move out deadline. Sponsor is responsible for keeping the
aisles at the Conference free of congestion caused by its
demonstrations or other promotional activities. Sponsor
agrees not to damage or deface the walls or floors of the
Conference venue. Sponsor representatives are restricted
to personnel engaged in the display, demonstrations,
application or sale of Sponsor’s products and services.
Citrix and/or Conference Management reserves the right to
terminate Sponsor participation for any action or behavior
deemed inappropriate by Citrix in its sole discretion or for
any breach of this Agreement or the Conference rules and
regulations or local laws, and in such event all fees paid to
Citrix by Sponsor will be considered nonrefundable.
Cancellation: Citrix may cancel all or any part of the
Conference based on its assessment of market conditions
or requirements, in its sole discretion, or due to any reason
beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to
natural or public disaster, act of God, venue construction,
insufficient participation, government regulation or similar
reasons. In such case, Citrix will refund to Sponsor any
space fees already paid as Sponsor’s sole and exclusive
remedy. Sponsor will have no further recourse against
Citrix or Conference Management. Citrix may cancel
Sponsor’s participation for cause if Sponsor engages
in any inappropriate behavior, violates any of the terms
of this Agreement or violates the Conference rules and
regulations or local laws. In either such case, any payments
made by Sponsor are considered fully earned by Citrix and
are nonrefundable. Sponsor will have no further recourse
against Citrix or Conference Management.
Indemnity: Under no circumstances will Citrix, Conference
Management, their respective employees, officers,
directors, agents and subcontractors and all of their
respective affiliates or the Conference venue (collectively
the “Conference Providers”) be liable for lost profits or
other indirect, incidental, consequential or exemplary
damages for any acts or omissions with respect to the
Conference, nor will they be liable for any errors in any
listing or descriptions or for omitting any Sponsor from the
Conference guide or any other materials.
Limitation of liability: None of Conference Providers shall
have any liability whatsoever to Sponsor for any losses,
injury (including death) expenses or damage to Sponsor,
its agents, representatives, contractors, guests, invitees or
any of their property, relating to or arising out of the acts
of any sponsor, or their respective agents, representatives,
contractors, participants, guests or invitees. In no
event shall Citrix’s or Conference Management’s total
liability hereunder exceed the amounts paid by Sponsor
hereunder.
Hold harmless: Sponsor agrees to defend, indemnify, and
hold harmless the Conference Providers and those lawfully
in the venue from and against any claim, loss, liability,
or damage suffered due to Sponsor construction or
maintenance of an unsafe exhibit, and/or the negligence
or misconduct of Sponsor or its agents, or Sponsor’s
breach of any commitment made, or due to any other act
of omission of Sponsor.
Insurance: Sponsor shall maintain proper insurance
coverage for its property and liability, and represents and
warrants that it has obtained adequate insurance of at
least $1 million to cover its potential liability hereunder.
Release: Sponsor acknowledges that the Conference
may be reproduced or recorded and authorizes Citrix and
its designees to record, transcribe, modify or reproduce
and distribute in any form and for any purpose any such
recording of the Conference which may include Sponsor,
its employees or agents, and Sponsor agrees to execute
any additional release presented by Citrix. Sponsor hereby
releases Citrix and its designees from and waives all claims
it or its employees or agents may possess, now or in the
future, in connection with such activities, and specifically
waives any statutory restriction on future claims or moral
rights.
Benefits and license: Citrix will provide exhibit space
(“Space”) at the Conference for the Sponsor to display
its qualified products and services in the Solutions Expo
(“Exhibit”). The Total Space Fee includes the use of the
Space and any of the benefits as specified on the Contract
or as detailed in the Sponsorship Toolkit (“Toolkit”) and
Exhibitor Service Kit (“Exhibitor Kit”), each as maybe
amended from time to time by Citrix. Sponsor grants to
Conference Providers the right to use the Sponsor name
and logo in promotion and production of the Conference.
Space assignment: Citrix or Conference Management will
assign the Space, and Citrix and Conference Management
reserve the right to change or modify the Space at any
time. The Space is for the Sponsor use only, and Sponsor
may not assign or sublease any portion or the Space
(including to an affiliated company) without Citrix’s prior
written consent. Sponsor must fully occupy the Space and
provide displays and equipment meeting Citrix’s standards.
At the Conference, Sponsor cannot exchange money or
goods without the prior written consent of Citrix, nor may
it assist other parties in soliciting business without that
consent.
Presentations by entertainers, spokespersons, or
models will be allowed, pending advance Conference
Management approval. They must be confined to the
Sponsor’s contracted booth space, or the 4’’ aisle area
directly in front of Sponsor’s booth. No staff, presenters, or
entertainers will be allowed to represent Sponsor in other
areas of the Solutions Expo or overall conference property.
If they are found outside contracted booth space they will
be removed from the Conference.
Own risk: Sponsor shall have the sole responsibility for any
loss of its equipment, materials or proprietary information,
or any loss including any subrogation claims by its insurers.
Persons visiting, viewing or otherwise participating in
Sponsor’s Space shall be deemed invitees of the Sponsor
and not those of any of the Conference Providers.
Warranties disclaimer: SPONSOR ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT ACCESS TO THE SPACE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND
NEITHER CITRIX NOR CONFERENCE MANAGEMENT
MAKES ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, ORAL
OR WRITTEN, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, IN CONNECTION
WITH THE SPACE OR CONFERENCE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
Relationship of the parties: Nothing in this Agreement
or any Contract shall be construed as creating an
employer-employee relationship, a partnership or joint
venture between Sponsor, on the one hand, and Citrix
and/or Conference Management, on the other hand. The
parties shall at all times have an independent contractor
relationship.
Third Party Contractors: Citrix or Conference
Management may require the Sponsor to use third
party contractors designated by Citrix or Conference
Management (“Designated Contractors,” as listed
in the Toolkit and Exhibitor Kit). Those Designated
Contractors act solely as independent contractors. Citrix
and Conference Management are not responsible for
any performance, acts or omissions of such Designated
Contractors.
Conference materials: The Toolkit and Exhibitor Kit
and any other planning and marketing material or
methodologies distributed to the Sponsor related to
the planning or execution of this Conference are owned
exclusively by Citrix or Conference Management. Sponsor
is responsible for obtaining the Toolkit and Exhibitor Kit
from Conference Management. The Toolkit and Exhibitor
Kit will be available from Conference Management prior to
the Conference.
Laws and rules: Sponsor shall comply with all applicable
laws, regulations, and ordinances in connection with
its participation in the Conference, including but not
limited to rules of the venue and any relevant labor union,
construction of the Exhibit in compliance with the ADA or
its local equivalent, and the terms, conditions, and rules
issued by Conference Management.
Third party proprietary rights: Sponsor will not violate
the proprietary rights of third parties in connection with its
participation with the Conference.
Taxes and licenses: Sponsor shall be solely responsible
for obtaining any licenses and permits, and payment of all
taxes (including sales and use taxes), license fees or other
charges applicable to its participation in the Conference.
Miscellaneous: Citrix’s and/or Conference Management’s
rights in this Agreement may not be waived without Citrix’s
and/or Conference Management’s (as applicable) prior
written consent in writing. Sponsor may not assign the
Agreement without prior written consent from Citrix and
Conference Management. If any term of this Agreement
is declared invalid or unenforceable, the remainder shall
continue in full force and effect. This Agreement shall be
binding upon the permitted successors, and assignees of
the Sponsor.
Governing law: This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed under the laws of the State of Florida without
regard to its conflicts of law rules. The Ninth Judicial Court
in and for the County of Orange, Florida, or the Federal
District Court for the Southern District in Miami, Florida,
shall have exclusive jurisdiction over the matters pertaining
to this Agreement in any action or suit to enforce any
right or remedy under this Agreement or to interpret any
provision of this Agreement. The prevailing party shall be
entitled to recover costs, including reasonable attorney’s
fees.
Payment: Sponsor will receive invoice upon receipt of
