EVENT INSURANCE REFUND OPPORTUNITY
   a) This is event insurance covering your exhibit space at each expo. It is not the same as your product liability insurance. These two insurances are unrelated and totally different.
   b) Detailed instructions and forms will be provided when you receive your exhibiting contract.
 
HOW, WHERE & WHEN to submit your completed
2008 certificate of event liability insurance to earn a refund.

1

HOW TO SUBMIT CERTIFICATE:
Have your insurance agent send the completed certificate naming TCC as additional insured to Shoff Darby Companies (our insurance agent). The certificate must be complete, accurate and received before deadline. Do NOT send the certificate to Target Communications!

2

WHERE TO SEND CERTIFICATE:
Shoff Darby Companies, Attn: Allison Steeves, 6527 Main St., Trumbull, CT 06611
Send by Fax: 203-268-0687 or E-mail: steeves@shoffdarby.com (Phone: 203-445-2123)

3

WHEN CERTIFICATE MUST BE RECEIVED (by our insurance agent):
Any time prior to 5:00 p.m. EASTERN TIME, the Wednesday prior to each expo. Certificate will not be accepted if received after that time; you will then be covered by the show insurance policy provided by Target Communications and there will be no refund.
 
YOUR AGENT MUST:
  1. Include business phone number.
  2. List your exhibiting name (if different from the company name on the insurance policy).

    If this information isn’t provided, and we have a question, we may not know who to contact, in which case you would get no refund.

CERTIFICATE APPROVAL/REJECTION
Insurance certificate approval/rejection will come from Shoff Darby Companies. If there is a problem, a Shoff Darby representative will contact your insurance agent -- if Shoff Darby has the necessary contact and identification information. Have your agent call Shoff Darby (860-283-6640) if there are questions.

REFUND -- Refunds will be mailed the first week after each expo to those who qualify for a refund.
Shoff Darby issues a refund and sends it directly to you. There will be NO insurance certificates checked at any expo, and NO refunds made at any expo.

INSURANCE COVERAGE WITHOUT CERTIFICATE
If your insurance agent cannot provide an approved certificate or you choose not to provide one, you will be insured through the event insurance that is included with your booth fee.

 
IMPORTANT DETAILS -- INSURANCE FORM COMPLETION
  1. Liability Insurance SAMPLE FORM (with detailed instructions for completion). (Click here to download Insurance SAMPLE FORM.)
  2. A CERTIFICATE FORM for your insurance agent’s use. (Click here to download Insurance CERTIFICATE FORM.) Some of the required information is in place, to make certificate completion easier.
