AN EXHIBIT EXPERIENCE DESIGNED WITH YOU IN MINDYour new technology, products, and services are critical to the continued advance-ment of neuromodulation. That’s why we make our exhibit hall and industry partners a priority.

By design, all education rooms are close to the exhibit hall, making sponsors and exhibitors easily accessible and highly visible throughout the meeting. Included in the nearly 16 hours of exhibit time are multiple events that bring attendees into your space. The opening reception, breakfasts, and coffee breaks are held in the exhibit hall to guarantee you daily face time with neuromodulation’s best.

We know that one size doesn’t fit all, so you can choose from a variety of space sizes based on your needs.

PRIORITY POINT SYSTEMAfter each officially sanctioned NANS meeting, the priority points earned are added to existing priority points. The following com-ponents factor into a NANS exhibitor’s priority points: • Becoming a grant provider, sponsor, or exhibitor at premeeting workshops• Becoming a grant provider, sponsor, or exhibitor at the NANS officially sanctioned meeting• Consecutive Years: Starting with the 2017 Annual Meeting, an exhibitor will receive 10 priority points after 5 consecutive years

of participation at the NANS Annual Meeting.Points awarded for specific participation opportunities are indicated throughout this Exhibitor Prospectus.

Use of Priority PointsThe Priority Points System provides the opportunity to earn advance access to premiere exhibit hall space and to deter-mine priority for other participation opportunities. For exam-ple, an exhibitor’s priority points total will determine priority status for exhibit booth and other sponsorship selections. In the case of multiple companies requesting the same opportu-nity, supporters will use their accrued points to bid on oppor-tunities they covet. Priority points are neither property nor a license and cannot be transferred, sold, or assigned by an exhibitor. Priority points do not reflect or represent a mone-tary value.

Reporting ViolationsViolations are directed to the co-directors of industry rela-tions. A written determination will be provided to all parties requesting their signature for acknowledgment.

Defining Minor and Major ViolationsA minor violation is defined as an isolated incident that may have occurred as an oversight or miscommunication without intent to negatively impact the initiative's success. The action has not impacted the success of said initiative. A major violation is defined as initiative(s) that directly and negatively impact the attendee experience and/or the suc-cess of the NANS-sanctioned initiative. The violation(s) include but are not limited to multi-layered efforts and/or actions to block, redirect, or prohibit NANS attendees from participating in sanctioned events; blocking and/or removal of competitors’ approved promotional collateral communications that impact participation of attendance to NANS-sanctioned events that are published and open for all NANS members. Multi-ple minor violations or failure to take corrective action after a warning will be considered a major violation. A direct viola-tion of NANS guidelines, such as hosting unauthorized events that compete with the general session, will be categorized as a major violation.

Deduction of Points Due to Policy ViolationsFailure to follow the standards and guidelines of the soci-ety will result in the deduction of points. All suspected viola-tions are to be reported to the Industry Relations Council. In the event of an alleged violation, representatives from each involved organization will be requested to participate in an immediate mediation meeting, including two industry rep-resentatives, a representative from the Industry Relations Council, and the executive director of NANS. Findings will be presented to designated members of the Annual Meeting Committee for adjudication and assignment of penalties. For each minor violation, a penalty of up to 5 points will be assessed and a warning will be issued. Major violations sub-ject the exhibitor to the following penalties:1.
