General Terms and Conditions of
DGM-Inventum GmbH
1. Definitions and validity of the conditions
All business relationships are based exclusively on these General Terms and Conditions. They are an integral part of all contracts that DGM-Inventum GmbH(hereinafter referred to as DGM-INVENTUM) concludes with contractual partners. They shall also apply to all future contracts, even if they are not separately
agreed again.
Terms and conditions of the contractual partner or third parties shall not apply, even if DGM-INVENTUM does not separately object to their validity inindividual cases. Even if the contractual partner refers to a letter that contains or refers to terms and conditions, this does not constitute agreement withthe validity of those terms and conditions.
2. Formation of the contract
If the contract is concluded, the contract with
DGM-Inventum GmbH
Kamillenweg 16-18
53757 Sankt Augustin, Germany.
3. Event participation, implementation and utilization
The contract is concluded by the registration of the participant and the acceptance of the registration by the organizer. Registration can be made inwriting, online or by e-mail and is binding. Acceptance of the registration is made by written confirmation or an invoice to the participant or the invoicerecipient. By accepting the registration, the participant acknowledges the organizer's General Terms and Conditions.
3.1. Performance and participation fees
The participation fee applies per person and event date. Unless expressly stated otherwise in the offer, the service offer includes participation in therespective event date and, if applicable, event documents and accompanying events. The scope of the service is primarily determined by the service
description.
Hotel accommodation, travel and other costs are not included in the participation fee, unless this is explicitly stated in the service description.
The DGM-INVENTUM reserves the right to replace announced speakers with others and to make necessary changes to the event program while maintaining
the overall character of the event, as well as to postpone event dates and/or relocate the event venue and/or offer it as an online event.
3.2. Authorization to participate in an event
The presentation of events in advertising (flyers, complete program, e-mail, newsletter, etc.) and on the Internet does not constitute a legally binding
contractual offer by DGM-INVENTUM, but is a non-binding invitation to interested parties to book events. By sending the registration form or anothercorresponding written declaration of registration (via the Internet, e-mail, letter or fax) for the desired event, the interested party submits a binding offer
to conclude a contract. After checking the offer, the registration is confirmed by DGM-INVENTUM in writing or in text form by e-mail and is thus legallybinding. The confirmation contains an Internet reference to the DGM-INVENTUM General Terms and Conditions. A claim to participation only arises withthis confirmation. In the case of online events, the participant will also receive the link to the virtual event room by e-mail shortly before the event. In thecase of face-to-face events, information on how to get there will be sent to the participant shortly before the event. Registrations will be considered in theorder in which they are received, as places are limited depending on the event.
3.3. Exclusion of participation
In special cases (e.g. disruptive behavior, vandalism, non-attendance, late payment), DGM-INVENTUM may exclude the participant from further
participation. In such cases, there is no entitlement to a refund of the participation fee.
3.4. Implementation of the events
The event can be canceled without giving reasons. Fees already paid will then be refunded; the contracting parties shall have no further claims. A changeof lecturer or venue does not entitle the participant to withdraw from or cancel the contract.
If an event is prevented from taking place due to a disruption at the event venue or in the event of "force majeure" (including cases such as war, revolutions,strikes, natural disasters or pandemics that are beyond our control), we may postpone the event once to a reasonable new date or hold the event as an
online event. If the event is held purely online, the participation fee for on-site tickets will automatically be adjusted to the participation fee for online
participation. An alternative date within the next 12 weeks for non-seasonal events is deemed appropriate. If an event cannot be held within a reasonable
period of time or if the "force majeure" lasts longer than three months, we will cancel the event and you will be refunded the event fee, if paid. Refund
claims by a participant due to merely temporary disruptions to an event (particularly in the case of digital events) are excluded.

DGM-INVENTUM (hereinafter referred to as the organizer) organizes conferences, congresses, training courses, etc., possibly with an accompanying
exhibition. The organizer is entitled to transfer rights or obligations arising from the contractual relationship between the exhibitor and the organizer inwhole or in part to third parties.
These General Terms and Conditions and all other conditions included by the organizer, such as special conditions of participation and any technicalconditions for the respective exhibition, shall apply exclusively. Any deviating terms and conditions of the exhibitor shall not be recognized.
8.2.

Offer, conference/exhibition theme, exhibitor, co-exhibitor

8.2.1. Offer
The organizer offers the exhibitor presentation space/exhibition space for rent with the trade fair event. In addition, the organizer, or third parties
commissioned by it, may provide further services, such as the rental of stand structures and furniture, stand construction, sponsoring and advertising
activities.
8.2.2. Event/exhibition theme
The topic of the event/exhibition is sufficiently specified in the special conditions of participation or on the website of the respective event.
8.2.3. Exhibitors, admission of companies and exhibits
All domestic and foreign manufacturers and service companies as well as those companies authorized by a manufacturing plant to present its products
may be admitted. All exhibits must correspond to the list of goods and services drawn up by the exhibitor for this exhibition or to the conference/exhibition
theme and, if applicable, be precisely described in the application (which is also an application for admission). The stand must also be approved by theorganizer in accordance with item 5.2.4. Exhibits other than those registered and approved by the organizer may not be exhibited. The organizer shalldecide on the admission of companies, co-exhibitors and additionally represented companies (see item 5.2.2.4) as well as exhibits. There is no legal
entitlement to admission. Organizers of joint stands are not considered exhibitors. For a joint stand, an exhibitor must therefore submit an application thatlists the other participants in the joint stand as co-exhibitors.
8.2.4. Co-exhibitors and additionally represented companies
The admission of co-exhibitors and additionally represented companies (this also includes affiliated companies such as subsidiaries or sister companies)
must be applied for in writing. An additional fee may have to be paid for each co-exhibitor and each additionally represented company.
8.3. Registration
Registration for a conference-accompanying exhibition and the ordering of further services must be carried out exclusively on the registration forms or theorganizer's website, subject to acceptance of the General and Special Conditions of Participation and, if applicable, the Technical Conditions. The exhibitors'
exhibits must be described in detail, including weight and dimensions in the case of plant and machinery. At the request of the organizer, productdescriptions must be submitted for presentation purposes. The registration is completed upon receipt by the organizer and is binding until notification ofadmission or non-admission by the organizer.
8.4. Admission, conclusion of the contract
The organizer decides on the acceptance of the application and the admission of the exhibitor, if necessary after a clarifying discussion. Admission as an
exhibitor shall be confirmed in writing by the organizer. The sending of an invoice for the ordered service to the customer shall also be deemed confirmationof admission. With the sending of the confirmation, the exhibition contract and the agreement on further services between the exhibitor and the organizer
shall be deemed to have been concluded in a legally binding manner. If the content of the confirmation of admission (e.g. stand space, allocation plan)differs from the content of the exhibitor's application, the contract shall be concluded in accordance with the content of the confirmation of admission,
unless the exhibitor objects in writing within two weeks. The organizer is entitled to revoke admission if it was granted on the basis of incorrect informationor conditions.
8.5. Terms of payment for exhibitors
For admission to the event, the payment deadlines specified in the Special Terms and Conditions of Participation of the respective event/exhibition must
be observed and complied with. Prior and full payment of the invoice amounts is a condition for occupying the exhibition space, for any entry in an exhibitor
directory and for the issue of exhibitor passes. All invoice amounts of all invoices issued by the organizer or by a third party commissioned by the organizer
in connection with the event must be transferred to the account specified in the invoice without any deductions, stating the invoice number, free of charges
and in euros. DGM-INVENTUM reserves the right to invoice the agreed service electronically by e-mail.

Resignation

8.6.1. Right of withdrawal of the organizer

The setting of a deadline is dispensable in the cases of § 323 Para. 2 BGB. The organizer may also withdraw from thecontract if the exhibitor breaches his contractual obligation to respect the rights, legal interests and interests of the organizer and the organizer can nolonger be reasonably expected to adhere to the contract. In all of the aforementioned cases of withdrawal by the organizer, the organizer shall also beentitled to demand all agreed payments from the exhibitor as lump-sum compensation in addition to the withdrawal. However, the organizer may also
claim further damages. The exhibitor may demand a reduction in the lump-sum compensation if he can prove that the organizer has incurred less damage
than the lump-sum compensation claimed.
8.6.2. Right of withdrawal of the exhibitor
Once the exhibitor has been admitted to the event and the contract has been concluded, it is generally no longer possible for the exhibitor to withdraw
from the contract or reduce the stand area, unless the reason for withdrawal is due to gross negligence or intent on the part of the organizer. The same
applies to any additionally agreed services. If the exhibitor cancels his participation in the event, the organizer shall be entitled to dispose of the space
rented to the exhibitor elsewhere. This shall apply irrespective of whether the exhibitor has a right of withdrawal. An exhibitor who cancels his participationin the event without being entitled to a right of withdrawal must make all agreed payments to the organizer if the exhibition space remains unrented forthe event. This shall also apply if the organizer has utilized the space elsewhere. In this case, however, the organizer must take into account the value ofthe expenses saved as well as the benefits he receives from the alternative use of the exhibition space. Further agreements on the withdrawal of theexhibitor may result from the Special Terms and Conditions of Participation of the event.
8.7. Force majeure, cancellation of the event
If an event and accompanying exhibition cannot take place or is canceled by the organizer due to force majeure or other reasons for which the organizer
is not responsible, each party shall bear its own costs incurred up to that point. The organizer shall not be liable for damages or disadvantages suffered by
the exhibitor. If the organizer has incurred costs in advance that are to be borne by the exhibitor in accordance with the General Terms and Conditions,
the Special Terms and Conditions of Participation valid for the event or in accordance with other contractual provisions, these costs shall be reimbursed by
the exhibitor. If the organizer is forced to vacate an event area temporarily or for a longer period of time or to postpone or shorten the event due to force

claims for damages on the part of the exhibitor against the organizer.
