ORANGE COUNTY CONVENTION CENTER NORTH CONCOURSE

9400 UNIVERSAL BLVD.

ORLANDO, FL 32819

JANUARY 6-9, 2022

This is a contract which governs your appearance at the FUN show. Your rights are governed by and limited by this document, which by signing and presenting the same, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to the terms herein. This bourse application must be signed by you and by FUN. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, FUN reserves the right to place the bourse table that is utilized by you in any location in the convention hall.

The $750.00 bourse table donation for a single table includes the use of one (1) 8-foot table with back-up table, two (2) standard exhibit cases with locks, dealer’s sign, 4 chairs (2 side, 2 folding), dealer ID badges and one electrical outlet.

Corner tables will cost $1,300.00, which includes two (2) 8-foot tables, one (1) back-up table, four (4) standard exhibit cases with locks, dealer’s sign, 6 chairs (2 side, 4 folding), dealer ID badges and one electrical outlet.

There is a “budget section” option available. The budget section is generally located in the back left or right corner of the bourse floor. There is a maximum price limit of $1,000.00 per coin for sale in the budget section. Dealers who display coins worth more than $1,000.00 will be denied tables in the budget section at future FUN shows. Single tables in this area are $550.00 each and corner tables are $900.00 each. The single and corner tables have the same number of tables, chairs, signs, etc., as above. Lights will be available on a rental basis from supply dealers at the convention.

The bourse table assigned to each applicant cannot be sold, rented, loaned or leased by any other individual during the convention except employees of the applicant or members of his/her immediate family. Any exceptions must be approved by the Convention Coordinator. All persons receiving dealer ID badges must be members of FUN.

Each applicant may share his table(s) with one additional independent dealer, provided the table sharing is registered with FUN and the independent dealer and employees, if any, are registered with FUN for the convention and the obligations of FUN required of each vendor are agreed to. The applicant assumes all responsibility, financial or otherwise, for all transactions conducted by such independent dealer and any other person behind his table and recognizes by signing this application that others will have the right to rely on this representation as third party beneficiaries to this Agreement.

Security will be provided by Positive Protection, Inc. (PPI) throughout the convention. However, its members and/or board members are not responsible for any loss of numismatic items, materials, stock in trade or personal property. FUN has arranged for general convention security with PPI. In order to avoid possible conflicts, and as a professional courtesy, if you arrange for additional security at the Orange County Convention Center, contract with PPI.

Please be advised that hanging banners, signs, building bookcases, foldout advertisement units, etc., may be utilized at your table, if and only if, the “line of sight” ability of security is not interrupted. Hanging banners are not to exceed 24” long by 8’ wide. The decision of Positive Protection, Inc., regarding the above will be final and the removal of the interrupting object mandatory. You may place advertising in your exhibit cases or laying flat on your bourse table. No flashing lights or flying objects are allowed in the bourse area.

Sunday attendance is optional for dealers. You MUST have your bourse table fully staffed and stocked with collectibles as of 3:00 PM on Saturday, January 8. Those who vacate their tables before 3:00 PM on Saturday may have subsequent bourse table locations altered by FUN or the Convention Coordinator and may incur other penalties for non-compliance with this rule. There are no exceptions to this rule.

Heritage Numismatic Auctions, Inc. shall be the official FUN auctioneer and has exclusive rights to conduct auctions of coins, exonumia and paper money at the convention and in the convention hall. No one shall conduct an auction of such material at the convention, or exhibit or deliver lots at their bourse table, without obtaining prior written permission to do so from the FUN Board of Directors. Failure to comply may result in action by the FUN board, including possible denial of a bourse table at future FUN conventions and/or immediate expulsion from the convention.

The FUN convention staff has made every effort to enter into contracts with hotels in a wide range of costs to suit every budget. In order for us to fulfill our obligations at these hotels and track the hotel room nights we use, you must book your rooms in our hotel room blocks as part of this contract. If you book rooms outside of our room blocks, you must go through FUN’s housing bureau to do so. If you need more information, please contact the convention coordinator.

THE FUN SHOW COMMITTEE and the BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF FUN RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REMOVE FROM THE PREMISES OR TO EXPEL FROM THE SHOW ANY TABLE HOLDER, DEALER OR INDIVIDUAL WHO CONDUCTS HIMSELF OR HERSELF IN A MANNER DEEMED UNBECOMING TO THE DIGNITY OF FLORIDA UNITED NUMISMATISTS, INC., OR WHO VIOLATES ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY LAW OR REGULATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY IN WHICH THE SHOW IS HELD, THE STATE OF FLORIDA OR ANY LAW OF THE UNITED STATES. THE BY-LAWS OF FUN PRESENTLY IN EFFECT SHALL GOVERN THE CONDUCT OF ALL FUN MEMBERS AND HOLDERS OF BOURSE TABLES AT THE SHOW.

FUN reserves the right to prohibit any items from the bourse area as it may deem inappropriate, including proven or suspected counterfeits. Firearms, pets, radios and/or TV’s are not permitted in the bourse area.

Receipt of this application and depositing of funds received does not constitute acceptance. All successful applicants will be notified. Unsuccessful applicants will be notified and a refund will accompany notice. FUN reserves the right to cancel any application, have any visitor to the bourse or any bourse dealer removed from the premises and refund the monies paid at any time, in full and complete satisfaction of the obligations.

By signing this document, signers acknowledge and agree that the maximum liability that FUN and any or all of its directors and officers, in the aggregate may have is never more than the combined sums paid by them to FUN. Applicant agrees to sign the then-in-use bourse application and to be bound thereby.

Applications may be cancelled by the applicant in writing and payment refunded at any time prior to December 1, 2021. Cancellations after December 1, 2021, will forfeit payment regardless of whether FUN resells the bourse table.

Non-numismatic, but related items will be allowed at the convention on the following basis: Only one showcase may contain non-numismatic items. All other showcases must contain numismatic items. No dealers may display more than 50% non-numismatic items without permission from the coordinator.
