PRIORITY POINT SYSTEM
For companies that submit an Application/Contract on or prior to March 24,
2016, a priority point system is used to determine the order in which the
exhibiting company will select their exhibit space.
Priority points are calculated based on support of ASPS/PSF
programs over a range of three years (January 1, 2013 through
December 31, 2015), ending with the most recent year. Additionally,
companies will retain and accumulate (1) one point per year of exhibits
participation accumulated over their entire exhibit history.
Exhibit Points
• One (1) point per year of exhibits participation at all prior annual
meetings
• One (1) point per 10’ x 10’ (100 sq. ft.) booth
• One-half (1/2) point per tabletop exhibit at any ASPS Clinical
Symposium
Housing Program Points
Reserve hotel rooms through ASPS Official Housing (onPeak/GES) and

• One (1) point for 1-5 hotel rooms
• Two (2) points for 6-10 hotel rooms
• Three (3) points for 11-20 hotel rooms
• Four (4) points 20+ or more hotel rooms
Advertising Points

In addition, Plastic Surgery The Meeting ‘Premier Supporters’ will have
priority selection to choose their exhibit space in order of support level and by
date of signed LOA submission prior to other exhibiting companies.
Multiple Divisions
Companies with several divisions may choose to average points in order to
be grouped together in the space assignment process. The process will allow
each division to contract separately while maintaining their own identities
(i.e. exhibit listing, badges, hotel rooms, etc.)
Co-Marketing
If two or more companies wish to be assigned exhibit space adjacent to
one another, each company must attach a cover letter to their Application/
Contract for exhibit space, explain the request and copy the other company.
The space assignment will then be made by averaging the companies’ points.
Sharing/Subletting Space
No part of any exhibit space assigned to an exhibitor may be reassigned,
sublet or shared with another party. Exhibitors may display only those
products or services that they manufacture or regularly distribute. This
information must be included on the Application/Contract for exhibit space.
Sharing of exhibit space is permitted only for divisions of the same company.
Mergers and Acquisitions
Companies that have merged with, been purchased by, or have purchased
another company, may use the exhibit points from either company alone,
whichever is more favorable, but not the combined points of both companies.
ASPS should be notified in writing that the acquisition or merger between
companies has been completed and list the date of completion. Companies
will have to select one company name to be used for all printed materials
(badges, final program, etc.). Companies requesting a transfer of points
must be “directly related” to an exhibiting company in order to inherit those
points. A “directly related” company shall be defined as a company that
is wholly owned by a subsidiary or one which has merged with another
company. Points will be awarded only if similar product lines are displayed.
The sale of a product, product line, certain technology, or certain assets to
another company will be considered to transfer priority points only if and
to the extent determined by the Society in its sole discretion. All requests
for points transaction must be submitted in writing to the ASPS Exhibits
Department and confirmed in writing by the parent or subsidiary company.

2016 CORPORATE LEADERSHIP
COUNCIL
The Corporate Leadership Council (CLC) was organized in 1997 as a forum to provide an
opportunity for increased cooperation, understanding and communication between the
leadership of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), The Plastic Surgery
Foundation and industry members. Today, the CLC continues to provide a roundtable
discussion for society and industry leadership to share information concerning trends and
developments in the specialty and industry.
Participation in the CLC provides corporate members unparalleled access to the leadership
of ASPS/PSF. The CLC is staffed by the ASPS Executive Vice President and the Director of
Corporate Development. The ASPS past president and ASPS president-elect currently serve
as volunteer co-chairs and oversee the CLC meeting, which traditionally occurs in the spring
of each year.
