You can exhibit for the companies you represent as a trade representative, sales company, association and importer insofar as the goods exhibited are not offered by any other company at the trade fair and you possess the necessary rights to present the exhibits. Koelnmesse also requires that proof of the nature of the manufacturer s business or of the activities as the manufacturer s sales company or importer be submitted in appropriate form on demand. Decisions on company admissions, eligible products and the location of exhibitor stands will be made by Koelnmesse. In the event of a rejection, you will receive a separate letter. All exhibited products and services must correspond to the focus of the event. See the accompanying List of Products, Form The products must be new ex-works. Products and services that do not correspond to the List of Products and used products may not be exhibited or offered. 2.2 Co-exhibitors The participation of Co-exhibitors and/or additionally represented companies at didacta is possible. A special application and an acceptance by the organiser are required for the use of the stand area by a Co-exhibitor (see Item V of the General Section of the Conditions of Participation). 3 Participation fee and other costs 3.1 Participation fee: per m² of floor space (minimum stand size: 9 m²) Terrace stand (one side open) EUR Corner stand (two sides open) EUR Two corner stand (three sides open) EUR Island stand (four sides open) EUR The participation fee does not include the provision of stand partition walls or other special construction elements. For two-storey exhibition stands, the actual allotted area in the upper storey following the technical inspection is calculated at 50 % of the price per m² of floor area. The participation fee will be calculated according to the dimensions of the stand area allocated. Hall pillars and other fixed construction elements present in the rented stand area do not provide grounds for a reduction in the participation fee. 3.2 AUMA fee The Association of the German Trade Fair Industry (Ausstellungs- und Messeausschuss der Deutschen Wirtschaft e. V. AUMA) charges you a fee of 0.60 EUR per m² of exhibition space for representing your interests. Koelnmesse will calculate and collect the fees in the name of, and on the account of, AUMA.

The flat-rate energy fee is also charged for storage spaces and for the second-storey space of a two-storey exhibiton stand. 3.4 Down payment for services(nka) Koelnmesse shall be entitled to charge a reasonable down payment for the services used for the event in question - e.g. electrical and water connections, stand cleaning, etc. The down payment for services shall be assessed on the basis of the services charged for the previous event in Cologne. For exhibitors who have not participated in the previous event in Cologne, the down payment shall total to Euro per square metre plus the obligatory media services (see Item 7.2). Once the event has ended, a separate final invoice for services will be issued; the down payment will be applied towards this amount. The invoice shall fall due for payment immediately following receipt. If the amount of the down payment should exceed the fees actually incurred for services, the amount by which the down payment exceeds actual charges shall be refunded to the exhibitor. The exhibitor shall have no claim to payment of interest on the down payment. 3.5 Contribution to promotional costs Each Exhibitor will be charged a contribution to promotional costs in accordance to the following scale: m² EUR m² EUR , , over 800 3, Co-exhibitor fee Insofar as the inclusion of other companies is permitted at your stand (see Item V of the General Section of the Conditions of Participation/Item 2.2 of these conditions), a Co-exhibitor fee of EUR per company will be charged.

21 2 Conditions of Participation Special Section charged (see Item 7.2). 3.8 VAT All prices given are net prices. The statutory VAT will be charged separately where applicable VAT identification number As a rule, Koelnmesse provides exhibitors (proprietors) with a uniform service a so-called event service in accordance with Art. 3a.4., Par. (2) of the German ordinance on the application of the VAT (UStAE). The place of performance for such services is the recipient s headquarter. Koelnmesse will therefore invoice foreign exhibitors (proprietors) according to the reverse charge accounting mechanism without charging any German VAT. Exhibitors from the European Union need to enter their valid VAT identification number in the registration form in order to be considered entrepreneurs. Exhibitors must immediately notify Koelnmesse of any changes to their VAT identification numbers Reimbursement of VAT If, in exceptional cases, services are not provided as uniform offerings in the sense described above and statutory VAT is charged, foreign exhibitors (proprietors) may receive a refund of the invoiced VAT provided they fulfil the legal requirements. Further details are available on the Internet at: Costs in the event of non-participation After receipt of acceptance/stand area confirmation You cannot normally withdraw from the contract after you have received the admission/stand area confirmation. The regulations contained in Item II of the General Section of the Conditions of Participation apply. In the event of nonparticipation, companies that have registered for a trade fair must pay compensation. Provided the reserved stand area can be rented to a third party, this compensation amounts to 25 % of the participation fee If you have also ordered stand construction services from Koelnmesse, you may cancel the stand construction order only if you do so no later than six weeks before the stand construction period officially begins. The date on which Koelnmesse receives the exhibitor s declaration is the criterion for determining if the deadline has been met. For cancellations received after the deadline, Koelnmesse is entitled to charge a flat-rate fee for the costs incurred. These costs amount to 30 % of the agreed fee in the event of a cancellation within 4 6 weeks prior to the start of construction, 50 % of the agreed fee in the event of a cancellation within 2 4 weeks prior to the start of construction, and 100 % of the agreed fee in the event of a cancellation at a later time or during the construction of the stand. The agreed fee has to be paid in full for individually crafted or purchased components and graphics In a case where the stand construction has been ordered independently of the registration of a stand area, the provisions of Koelnmesse s General Terms and Conditions for services apply. You can download Koelnmesse s General Terms and Conditions for services from the event s website or from You shall be entitled to prove that no damages were incurred or that the costs were significantly less extensive than the amount charged. 4 Stand sizes and construction 4.1 Stand size The minimum stand size is 9 m². Please note that hall pillars and other fixed construction elements may be present in the rented stand area. Minor deviations from the requested stand size do not entitle an objection to be made under Item II of the General Section of the Conditions of Participation. Trade fair partition walls for separating the stand area are not automatically provided. If needed as stand construction elements, however, they can be ordered for a fee using Form S.10. This fee does not include stand construction. Koelnmesse will erect partition walls only if this is necessary for safety reasons due to the installation of water pipes or electrical systems. 4.2 Responsibility The construction, design and operation of the stand must adhere to all regulations that are valid in Germany (including the regulations of the Sonderbauverordnung, the Arbeitsschutzgesetz (industrial safety law), the industrial safety regulations, the DIN and EN standards, the VDE regulations, and the accident prevention regulations of the professional associations in the currently valid versions). All these provisions apply to both the company s own as well as to independent stand designers, decorators and signwriters and to all persons, in as far as they perform activities as commissioned by the exhibitor or on the exhibitor s behalf in connection with the construction, dismantling, design and operation of the stand. The exhibitor is responsible for ensuring that all regulations are complied with. The Exhibitor hereby assumes an independent guarantee that all persons the services of which the Exhibitor enlists for purposes of executing the Agreement executive bodies, employees, legal representatives, agents and assistants are familiar with and comply with the conditions set out above. The exhibitor must supervise construction personnel and other persons working on their behalf to ensure that they adhere to the regulations. The stipulations of the General Section of the Conditions of Participation and the Technical Guidelines are not affected. 4.3 Maximum stand height The maximum permissible stand height is set at 3.00 m, insofar as this is permitted by the hall ceiling and any fixed structures that may be present. As long as the technical guidelines are observed when designing and erecting stands, there is no need to submit for approval drawings for one-storey stands that do not exceed the permitted height. All other stands and designs must be approved, particularly if the stand features special structures or meeting rooms, or static calculations are required. Plans must be submitted in duplicate for approval by Koelnmesse in good time before the work is carried out, and at least 6 weeks before the event commences. These documents, which can be scrutinized, consist of ground plans, views and design cross sections with all measurements and to the extent necessary a static calculation. 4.4 Notice of approval Stand construction may not commence until the exhibitor has received a copy bearing Koelnmesse s notice of approval. This notice of approval does not release the exhibitor from the observance of the relevant provisions. It only states that Koelnmesse has no objections in the context of stand design/ arrangement. If requested to do so by Koelnmesse, the exhibitor is obliged to submit any additionally required information relating to the stand immediately. There is no obligation on the part of Koelnmesse to ensure the observance of other provisions. Nevertheless, if an infringement of the relevant provisions is found to have been committed, Koelnmesse can, for this reason, also refuse to issue the notice of approval. You have been informed of the fact that in exceptional cases at your request and on your account the stand construction documents must be submitted to the responsible authorities for scrutiny. Irrespective of official approvals of the stand, any objections made by Koelnmesse concerning the stand must be responded to immediately. In case of imminent danger, Koelnmesse is entitled to determine at its absolute discretion the measures necessary and have them implemented at the exhibitor s expense. 4.5 Form of stand The following terms are used for the stand forms: Terrace stand: one side open Corner stand: two sides open Two-corner stand: three sides open Island stand: four sides open. Deviations from the requested stand shape do not entitle an objection to be made under Item II of the General Section of the Conditions of Participation. 4.6 Construction and design of the stands The stand must be constructed to comply with the form of the stand confirmed. The arrangement of the stand is left to the exhibitor but should be appropriate for the event in question. The exhibitor has to obtain information on the load capacity of the hall floor and the hall headroom. Only the on-site measurements apply to stand space. Banners and company signs are not permitted to encroach into the aisles. Further regulations, particularly regulations pertaining to stand construction and stand safety, can be found in the Technical Guidelines.
