Please ensure that you allow adequate and appropriate facilities on your stand for disabled visitors. EVACUATION PROCEDURES In the event of an emergency evacuation please follow the instructions of venue and event staff. You will be directed to the assembly point outside the main building. SPONSOR GUIDELINES Distribution of Promotional Material The distribution of gifts, samples, leaflets and catalogs will be permitted only within stands, and the Organiser reserves the right to block such distribution at any time when it may cause disturbances, bottlenecks or disturbances. For all planned forms of promotional distribution outside stand areas, the exhibitor/sponsor should confer with the commercial department of the event to find out about options for merchandising and sponsorship. If distribution of promotional material is granted, you must bring written notice of this approval with you onsite. Employment of Minors If an exhibitor/sponsor needs people under 16 years of age to work during the Event, they should provide a letter of authorization from the parents, signed by both, with recognized signatures, Xerox copy of RG and CPF of the parents, birth certificate or RG of the minor, as well as a contract signed by the exhibitor/sponsor and the minor.

Contracting of Stand Personnel Any and all services contracted by the exhibitor/sponsor should be in accordance with current legislation. For the use of freelancers, these should be registered with city authorities and the INSS, and a Fiscal Note for the provision of services should be supplied. For contracting companies, as well as the normal service provision contract, the exhibitor/sponsor should request a statement that the personnel supplied are accordingly standardized or registered with the company. If these procedures are not carried out, the exhibitor/sponsor will be subject to a fine by the Regional Labor Office (Delegacia Regional do Trabalho - DRT). Inspection by the Ministry of Labor and the Federal Police Due to frequent operations by the Ministry of Labor fairs, we are issuing this information with the aim of clarifying some issues and give guidance to exhibitors/sponsor to avoid difficulties in regards to the documentation of the professionals that will be providing services on the stands. The Ministry of Labor, with the aim of standardizing differences in the contracting of workers, has carried out actions with inspection teams in the operational area of the fair, for reasons of guidance and inspection. We remind you that a company contracting services can be considered as having dual responsibility for their obligations in matters pertaining to employment, and they should therefore stipulate that their service providers provide proof of being regularized, as a safeguard against any potential claims, in regard to the contracting of receptionists, waiters, stand security personnel (security guards), cleaners, stand assemblers and employees and companies providing services to make sure they comply with the legislation in force. Documents that should be available on your stand in case any inspections of workers take place are the following: Employees of the exhibiting company Duplicate copy of company employee records. Time cards Employees of third-party service providers Service provision contract Duplicate of company employee records or identification cards or passes containing full name, position, date of entry to company and PIS/PASEP number Time Cards Page 10

Please ensure that you account for adequate storage facilities within your exhibition stand space. VISAS FOR FOREIGNERS It is recommended to check at the Brazilian Embassy, Consulate or Representation in your country regarding the need of visas to come to Brazil. The best source of information about Visas is the Brazilian diplomatic representation in your own country; please visit the Brazilian Foreign Affair Ministry website which lists all the Brazilian Missions Abroad: www.mre.gov.br/ingles/consular_service/foreigners.asp.
