Law Expo Participant Terms, Conditions & Disclaimers

1. Acceptance of Terms and Authority

The individual accepting these Terms represents and confirms that they are authorized to accept these Terms on behalf of the Participant and to provide information concerning its Representatives.

Acceptance may be completed electronically. Clicking "I Agree," "Accept," "Submit," or a similarly labeled button constitutes an electronic signature and has the same legal effect as a handwritten signature.

The Participant is responsible for ensuring that all Representatives review and comply with these Terms, applicable venue requirements, and all instructions provided by HPLS.

Participation in any portion of the Law Expo — including check-in, setup, the Law Expo itself, related programming, or load-out — constitutes continued acceptance of these Terms.

2. Law Expo Schedule and Location

The Law Expo is scheduled as follows: Date: Friday, September 25, 2026. Representative Check-In and Setup: beginning at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Law Expo: 2:00–5:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Location: North Carolina Central University Student Center, Durham, North Carolina.

The Participant is responsible for ensuring that its Representatives arrive with sufficient time to check in, receive instructions, locate the assigned table, and complete setup before the Law Expo opens.

Participants are expected to keep their assigned tables staffed throughout the Law Expo unless HPLS approves otherwise.

Participants must complete load-out within the time and manner established by HPLS and the host venue.

HPLS may adjust check-in, setup, program, or load-out times when operational circumstances require. HPLS will provide notice of material changes when reasonably possible.

3. Registration Levels and Included Benefits

The Participant is entitled only to the benefits expressly included in its selected registration level, registration confirmation, or separately executed sponsorship agreement.

Law Expo registration levels may include Law Expo Participant and Featured Partner registration.

"Featured Partner" is the name of a registration level. It does not create a legal partnership, agency, joint venture, fiduciary relationship, employment relationship, sponsorship, or endorsement between HPLS and the Participant.

Unless expressly stated otherwise in writing, registration benefits have no cash value and may not be exchanged, transferred, or redeemed for cash.

If circumstances prevent HPLS from providing a particular promotional or operational benefit, HPLS may provide a reasonably comparable substitute benefit when practical.

4. Shared Tables and Table Assignments

• Both Law Expo Participant and Featured Partner registrations include shared table space unless HPLS expressly confirms otherwise in writing.
• Table space will be shared with another participating organization unless otherwise confirmed by HPLS.
• Each Participant must keep its materials within its designated portion of the shared table.
• Participants may not obstruct, cover, relocate, remove, or interfere with another organization's materials.
• Participants may not move to another table or change table assignments without prior authorization from HPLS.
• Table assignments and placements are determined by HPLS based on registration level, space, accessibility, traffic flow, program needs, and other operational considerations.
• HPLS may modify table assignments before or during the Event when reasonably necessary.
• Priority, lobby, end-table, or other preferred placement is subject to availability and operational requirements. Preferred placement does not guarantee increased visibility, attendee traffic, contacts, applications, enrollments, or other results.

5. Table Materials, Retractable Banners, and Displays

Participants may place professional brochures, publications, informational materials, approved branded items, and tabletop signage within their designated portion of the shared table. All tabletop signage must fit entirely within the Participant's designated portion of the shared table and may not obstruct or interfere with the neighboring organization.

Retractable banners, standing banners, backdrops, freestanding signs, floor displays, oversized displays, exhibit structures, or similar materials are prohibited unless (1) the Participant is a confirmed Sponsor; and (2) HPLS has approved the proposed display in writing before the Event.

Featured Partner registration alone does not authorize a retractable banner or other freestanding display unless the organization is also a confirmed Sponsor or HPLS has provided separate written approval. Unauthorized banners or displays may not be brought into the Law Expo area and must be removed immediately upon request.

• Displays and materials may not extend beyond the Participant's designated area.
• Displays and materials may not obstruct aisles, entrances, exits, emergency routes, accessibility pathways, neighboring tables, or sightlines.
• Displays and materials may not be attached to walls, floors, doors, windows, furniture, or other venue property.
• Displays and materials may not create excessive noise, flashing lights, odors, safety hazards, or other disruptions.
• Displays and materials may not damage or alter venue property.
• Displays and materials may not violate HPLS instructions or venue requirements.
• Electrical access, audiovisual equipment, internet service, and Wi-Fi are not guaranteed unless expressly confirmed in writing.
• HPLS may require the removal or modification of any material or display that it reasonably determines is unsafe, disruptive, inappropriate, misleading, inconsistent with the Event's educational purpose, or prohibited by the venue.

6. Candy, Giveaways, Promotions, Sales, and Solicitation

Participants may distribute commercially packaged, individually wrapped candy from their assigned tables, subject to applicable host-venue requirements. Homemade candy, open food, unpackaged consumable items, and other food or beverages are prohibited unless HPLS and, where required, the host venue provide prior written approval.

Candy, promotional items, and educational materials must be distributed only from the Participant's assigned table. They may not be distributed in aisles, entrances, session rooms, common areas, or other Event locations without prior approval. Participants may distribute appropriate branded promotional items and educational materials directly related to their registered organizations.

• Drawings, raffles, contests, sweepstakes, games of chance, or similar promotions are prohibited.
• On-site sales or acceptance of payment for products or services is prohibited.
• Fundraising or solicitation of donations is prohibited.
• Solicitation, promotion, or recruitment unrelated to the registered organization is prohibited.
• Promotion of an unregistered organization, business, program, product, or service without prior written approval from HPLS is prohibited.
• Any activity that disrupts neighboring Participants or interferes with attendee movement is prohibited.
• HPLS may require an activity or distribution to stop if it conflicts with these Terms, applicable law, venue policy, safety requirements, or the educational purpose of the Event.

7. Representatives and Credentials

The Participant must provide accurate and timely information concerning each Representative attending on its behalf. Only registered and approved Representatives may staff a Participant's table. Credentials are personal to the approved Representative and may not be shared.

Up to two complimentary gift bags may be provided to each registered organization, based on the Representative information submitted and subject to availability. Gift bags and their contents have no cash value and are not guaranteed for Representatives whose information was not submitted by the applicable deadline.

A paid registration may be transferred from one Representative to another Representative of the same organization by providing written notice to HPLS. Registration may not be transferred to another institution, company, or organization without prior written approval from HPLS.

Representatives must be at least 18 years old unless HPLS provides prior written approval and receives any required consent or supervision documentation.

8. Promotional Materials and Submission Deadlines

Participants receiving advertising, video, slide, logo, program-book, on-screen, or other promotional benefits must submit all required materials in the requested format by the deadline established by HPLS.

Featured Partner advertisements, slides, videos, logos, and related promotional materials must be submitted no later than September 10, 2026, unless HPLS confirms a different deadline in writing.

• The Participant represents and warrants that it owns the submitted content or has all rights and permissions necessary for its use.
• The content does not infringe any copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, contractual, or other right.
• The content is accurate and is not unlawful, deceptive, defamatory, discriminatory, or otherwise inappropriate.
• HPLS may reproduce, display, distribute, resize, crop, reformat, compress, or make minor technical adjustments to the content for Event-related purposes.
• HPLS may reject content that is late, incomplete, incompatible, low-quality, unlawful, misleading, inappropriate, or inconsistent with Event standards, and does not guarantee inclusion of materials submitted after the deadline or in an unusable format.
• The Participant is not entitled to a refund or credit for a benefit that cannot be provided because the Participant submitted its materials late, submitted unusable materials, or failed to follow the submission instructions.

9. Shipping, Delivery, Storage, and Unclaimed Materials

Participant shipments may be delivered only during the designated delivery window: Monday, September 21 through Wednesday, September 23, 2026. Shipments must be addressed and labeled exactly as directed in the Law Expo Hub.

The UPS Store and any other shipping, delivery, storage, or courier service are independent third parties and are not agents or employees of HPLS. HPLS will make reasonable efforts to coordinate the receipt, pickup, transportation, and placement of properly labeled materials. However, HPLS is not a carrier, warehouse operator, insurer, or guarantor of shipped property and does not guarantee the receipt, condition, availability, placement, security, or return of any shipment.

HPLS is not responsible for materials that are lost, stolen, damaged, delayed, misdirected, improperly labeled, delivered outside the designated window, refused by a third party, or unavailable when the Participant arrives. HPLS is not responsible for accepting, storing, or transporting packages that are excessively large, unusually heavy, hazardous, improperly packaged, damaged, leaking, or inconsistent with the shipping instructions.

Participants must remove or arrange return shipment of all remaining materials within the deadline provided by HPLS. Materials left behind or unclaimed after that deadline may be discarded. The Participant is responsible for any disposal, storage, handling, or return costs.

• Participants are responsible for properly packaging and labeling all shipments.
• Participants are responsible for paying all shipping, delivery, handling, storage, return, and related charges.
• Participants are responsible for tracking their shipments.
• Participants are responsible for confirming that materials arrive during the approved delivery window.
• Participants are responsible for providing HPLS with any requested shipment information.
• Participants are responsible for arranging for the return or removal of remaining materials after the Event.

10. Cleanup and Condition of Assigned Space

Before leaving the Law Expo, the Participant must remove its materials, trash, candy, packaging, shipping materials, displays, equipment, and personal property.

The Participant must leave its assigned area in substantially the same condition in which it was received.

The Participant is responsible for reasonable cleaning, repair, disposal, or replacement costs resulting from damage, excessive waste, or materials left by the Participant or its Representatives.

11. Attendee Information and Post-Event Contact List

Eligible Participants may receive a post-Event attendee contact list if that benefit is included in their registration level or sponsorship agreement. The list will include only information that HPLS is permitted to share, including information belonging to attendees who did not opt out of post-Event information sharing. The amount and type of information provided may vary.

The Participant may use information supplied by HPLS only for legitimate admissions, recruitment, educational, informational, or other follow-up purposes directly related to the Participant's registered organization.

The Participant is independently responsible for its communications with attendees and must provide legally required unsubscribe or opt-out options. HPLS does not guarantee the number, accuracy, completeness, currentness, deliverability, or usefulness of the contacts provided.

Information collected directly by a Participant through QR codes, electronic forms, voluntary sign-ups, conversations, or other table interactions is collected independently by that Participant. The Participant is solely responsible for providing appropriate notices, obtaining any necessary consent, safeguarding the information, and using it lawfully.

Participants must maintain reasonable administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect attendee information from unauthorized access, loss, disclosure, or misuse. A Participant must promptly notify HPLS if it discovers suspected unauthorized access to, disclosure of, or misuse of an attendee list supplied by HPLS.

• The Participant may not sell, rent, license, transfer, exchange, publicly post, or otherwise provide the list to another person or organization.
• The Participant may not use the information for unrelated commercial marketing, fundraising, political activity, or solicitation.
• The Participant may not add attendees to unrelated mailing lists without an appropriate legal basis.
• The Participant may not contact an attendee who has requested that communications stop.
• The Participant may not use the information in violation of applicable privacy, data-security, telecommunications, or marketing laws.

12. Privacy and Participant Information

• HPLS may collect, store, and use registration and Representative information as reasonably necessary to administer the Event.
• To communicate with Participants and Representatives.
• To provide registration and sponsorship benefits.
• To coordinate credentials, shipping, accommodations, and Event logistics.
• To maintain Event and financial records.
• To address safety, security, or compliance matters.
• To carry out related Event operations.
• HPLS may share necessary information with service providers, contractors, the host venue, and other Event partners assisting with Event administration, subject to applicable law and appropriate operational requirements.

13. No Guarantee of Attendance or Results

• HPLS does not guarantee any particular number of registered attendees or attendees present at the Event.
• HPLS does not guarantee any particular level of attendee traffic at the Participant's table.
• HPLS does not guarantee any minimum number of student contacts, leads, inquiries, applications, enrollments, referrals, impressions, or follow-up communications.
• HPLS does not guarantee that any attendee will meet the Participant's recruitment or eligibility criteria.
• HPLS does not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of information voluntarily provided by attendees.
• HPLS does not guarantee any specific educational, recruitment, marketing, admissions, financial, or organizational result.
• The Participant remains solely responsible for determining how to evaluate, contact, recruit, admit, advise, or otherwise engage with attendees.

14. Registration Fees, Cancellations, Substitutions, and Refunds

Registration fees are due according to the terms provided at registration or on the applicable invoice. Law Expo registration fees are nonrefundable and may not be transferred to another Event year.

Failure to attend, late arrival, early departure, failure to staff a table, failure to submit required materials, failure to use a benefit, or removal for violation of these Terms does not entitle the Participant to a refund, credit, or transfer.

A Participant may substitute an approved Representative from the same organization by notifying HPLS in writing. Registration may not be transferred to another organization without prior written approval from HPLS.

If HPLS cancels the Law Expo in its entirety for reasons other than circumstances addressed in Section 23, HPLS's sole obligation will be to refund Law Expo registration fees paid directly to HPLS. HPLS is not responsible for travel, lodging, shipping, staffing, printing, production, lost opportunities, or other related expenses.

15. Accessibility and Accommodation Requests

Representatives who require disability-related accommodations should submit a request no later than Friday, September 11, 2026, by contacting HPLS using the information in Section 28.

HPLS will make reasonable efforts to address timely requests in coordination with the host venue. Requests submitted after the deadline or on-site will be considered, but HPLS cannot guarantee that late requests can be fulfilled.

Representatives are not required to disclose a diagnosis beyond the information reasonably necessary to evaluate and arrange an accommodation. Each Representative is responsible for determining whether they can safely participate.

HPLS may restrict an activity only when reasonably necessary to address a material safety concern, comply with applicable law, follow host-venue requirements, or enforce these Terms.

16. Professional Conduct

All Participants and Representatives must treat attendees, HPLS staff, volunteers, contractors, venue personnel, speakers, presenters, Sponsors, other Participants, and guests with respect and professionalism.

Harassment, discrimination, intimidation, threats, stalking, retaliation, unwelcome physical contact, sexually inappropriate conduct, abusive behavior, deliberate disruption, and unsafe conduct are prohibited. Prohibited conduct includes conduct based on race, color, national origin, ancestry, sex, pregnancy, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, disability, religion, age, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law.

Representatives may not participate while materially impaired by alcohol, illegal drugs, or another substance in a manner that creates a safety concern or disrupts the Event. Illegal substances and unauthorized alcohol are prohibited.

Anyone experiencing or witnessing prohibited conduct should report it promptly to HPLS staff or use the contact information in Section 28.

• Violations may result in a warning.
• Removal of materials or cessation of an activity.
• Closure of the Participant's table.
• Revocation of Representative credentials.
• Removal from the Event without refund.
• Notification of venue security or law enforcement when appropriate.
• Exclusion from future HPLS events.

17. Venue Rules, Security, Admission, and Capacity

Participants and Representatives must comply with all applicable rules and instructions of HPLS and the host venue, including rules concerning building access and credentials, security screening, parking and transportation, loading and deliveries, accessibility, prohibited items, emergency procedures, and facility use.

Weapons, illegal substances, unauthorized alcohol, hazardous materials, open flames, and any items prohibited by the host venue are not permitted.

• HPLS may deny or revoke admission or credentials for failure to complete required registration or acceptance requirements.
• For providing materially inaccurate or misleading information.
• For violating these Terms or venue requirements.
• For creating a safety or security concern.
• For engaging in materially disruptive, threatening, abusive, or unprofessional behavior.
• For not being an approved Representative of a registered organization.

18. Participant Property and Insurance

Participants are responsible for their own property, including displays, equipment, supplies, publications, promotional materials, electronics, personal items, and shipments.

The availability of a hospitality lounge, storage area, assigned table, or other space does not create a bailment or transfer responsibility for the Participant's property to HPLS or the host venue.

HPLS does not provide insurance for a Participant's property, personnel, displays, equipment, activities, shipments, or liabilities. Participants should maintain any property, general-liability, workers' compensation, automobile, travel, or other insurance they consider appropriate or that may be required by law.

Participants are responsible for damage they or their Representatives cause to the venue, furnishings, equipment, property, or assigned areas.

19. Photography, Audio, Video, and Publicity

The Event and Law Expo may be photographed, livestreamed, or recorded in audio or video by HPLS, its contractors, authorized media, or the host venue. By participating, each Participant authorizes HPLS to photograph or record its table, approved display, organization name, visible logo, submitted materials, and Representatives while participating in the Event.

To the extent permitted by law, the Participant grants HPLS and its authorized designees a nonexclusive, royalty-free right to use such Event photographs and recordings for legitimate educational, promotional, historical, archival, reporting, and Event-related purposes in any media without additional compensation.

A Representative who wishes to avoid close-up photography or recording should notify HPLS at check-in. HPLS will make reasonable efforts to honor the request but cannot guarantee exclusion from incidental appearances, crowd images, wide shots, or general Law Expo footage.

Participants may take reasonable photographs and short recordings for their own noncommercial organizational communications, provided that doing so does not disrupt the Event or violate another person's privacy. Participants may not livestream, record, reproduce, or distribute full sessions, speaker presentations, proprietary materials, or private conversations without prior authorization. Participants should obtain permission before intentionally photographing or recording identifiable attendees at their tables, particularly anyone who may be under 18.

20. Intellectual Property and Brand Use

HPLS Event materials, branding, designs, publications, recordings, schedules, original content, and logos remain the property of HPLS or their respective licensors.

The names "National HBCU Pre-Law Summit," "National HBCU Pre-Law Summit & Law Expo," and "HPLS," along with associated logos and branding, may not be used in a manner that suggests sponsorship, endorsement, partnership, or authorization without prior written permission.

Participants may accurately state that they are registered participants in the 2026 Law Expo. A Participant may identify itself as a Sponsor only if HPLS has confirmed that status in writing.

Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of a Participant's preexisting intellectual property to HPLS. The limited permission granted for submitted promotional materials and Event publicity does not authorize unrelated use.

21. Independent Organizations and No Endorsement

The Participant and HPLS are independent entities. Participation does not create a partnership, agency, joint venture, fiduciary relationship, employment relationship, franchise, or authority for either party to bind the other.

Unless expressly stated in a written sponsorship agreement, HPLS's acceptance of a Participant does not constitute an endorsement, accreditation, recommendation, or verification of the Participant or its programs, services, claims, admissions practices, products, or Representatives.

22. Assumption of Risk, Release, and Limitation of Liability

Participation in an in-person event involves ordinary risks, including risks associated with travel, crowds, communicable illness, slips and falls, weather, transportation, property loss, and interaction with other individuals. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Participant and its Representatives voluntarily assume the ordinary and reasonably foreseeable risks associated with their attendance and participation.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, HBCU Pre-Law LLC, HPLS, the host venue, and their respective governing boards, trustees, officers, employees, volunteers, contractors, agents, and authorized Event representatives ("Released Parties") will not be liable for the items listed below.

Nothing in these Terms releases or limits liability for gross negligence, reckless conduct, willful misconduct, intentional harm, or any liability that cannot lawfully be waived.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the total aggregate liability of HBCU Pre-Law LLC and HPLS arising from or relating to the Participant's registration or participation will not exceed the registration fees actually paid by the Participant to HPLS for the 2026 Law Expo.

• Loss, theft, delay, or damage involving Participant property, displays, equipment, shipments, or personal items.
• Acts or omissions of attendees, other Participants, independent vendors, carriers, hotels, transportation providers, or other third parties.
• Travel, lodging, shipping, printing, staffing, or related expenses.
• Lost profits, lost opportunities, lost data, reputational harm, or indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages.
• Personal injury or property damage arising from ordinary risks of participation or the Participant's or Representative's own acts or omissions.

23. Cancellation, Postponement, Modification, and Force Majeure

HPLS may modify the Event schedule, format, venue, table assignments, program, speakers, participating organizations, activities, or operational arrangements when reasonably necessary.

HPLS is not liable for delay, cancellation, postponement, relocation, interruption, reduced capacity, or modification resulting from circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including severe weather or natural disaster; public-health emergency, epidemic, or pandemic; government action or order; campus closure or venue unavailability; utility, internet, or technology failure; transportation disruption; labor dispute; civil disorder or terrorism; security threat; or a similar circumstance beyond HPLS's reasonable control.

When circumstances beyond HPLS's reasonable control materially affect the Event, HPLS may provide, as it determines reasonably appropriate under the circumstances, a rescheduled Event; a virtual or hybrid alternative; a credit toward a future event; substitute promotional or participation benefits; a partial refund; or another reasonable remedy. Any remedy may take into account unrecoverable expenses and services already provided.

HPLS is not responsible for the Participant's travel, lodging, shipping, printing, staffing, cancellation, lost-opportunity, or related expenses.

24. Indemnification

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Participant agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Released Parties from third-party claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, penalties, losses, and reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from the matters listed below. This obligation does not apply to the extent a claim results from the gross negligence, reckless conduct, or willful misconduct of the party seeking indemnification.

• The Participant's or its Representatives' negligent, reckless, unlawful, or intentional acts or omissions.
• A violation of these Terms or venue requirements.
• Damage caused by the Participant or its Representatives.
• The Participant's collection, storage, use, disclosure, or safeguarding of attendee information.
• Promotional content or materials submitted, displayed, or distributed by the Participant.
• A claim that the Participant's materials infringe or violate another party's intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, contractual, or other rights.

25. Informal Resolution, Mediation, and Legal Proceedings

If a dispute arises from or relates to these Terms or participation in the Law Expo, the Participant and HPLS agree to first provide written notice describing the dispute and attempt in good faith to resolve it informally.

If the dispute is not resolved within 30 days after written notice, the parties agree to participate in good-faith mediation before filing a lawsuit, except when immediate legal action is reasonably necessary to protect confidential information, intellectual property, attendee information, property, safety, or other rights from imminent or irreparable harm.

The parties will attempt to select a mutually acceptable mediator who is qualified and experienced in commercial, educational, event-related, or nonprofit disputes. If the parties cannot agree upon a mediator within 15 days, either party may request assistance selecting a mediator through a mutually acceptable mediation service or dispute-resolution provider.

Mediation will ordinarily be conducted remotely by videoconference unless the parties agree in writing to conduct it in person. If mediation is conducted in person, the parties will mutually agree upon the location. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the parties will share the mediator's fees equally, and each party will be responsible for its own attorneys' fees and other costs.

Mediation is a confidential, nonbinding settlement process. The mediator may facilitate communication and settlement discussions but may not impose a decision upon either party. Any resolution reached through mediation must be documented in a written agreement signed by authorized representatives of both parties.

If the dispute is not resolved through mediation, either party may pursue its available remedies in a state or federal court with appropriate jurisdiction in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Subject to any statutory or other legal restrictions applicable to a public institution, the parties consent to personal jurisdiction and venue in those courts.

Nothing in this section prevents either party from bringing an eligible claim in small claims court; from seeking temporary or emergency relief when reasonably necessary to prevent imminent or irreparable harm; or prevents a claim from being brought in another jurisdiction when applicable law requires that the claim be heard there.

26. Public Institutions and Legally Required Modifications

If the Participant is a public institution that is legally prohibited from accepting a provision concerning indemnification, mediation, governing law, jurisdiction, venue, limitation of liability, or another contractual requirement, the Participant must notify HPLS in writing before accepting these Terms.

HPLS may determine whether a written modification is appropriate. No provision is waived, deleted, or modified unless HPLS confirms the modification in writing through an authorized representative.

The submission of a Participant's own standard terms, purchase order, reservation of rights, disclaimer, or conflicting language does not modify these Terms unless HPLS expressly agrees to the modification in writing.

27. General Provisions

Governing Law. These Terms and any contractual dispute arising from or relating to them will be governed by and interpreted under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Participants and Representatives must comply with applicable North Carolina law, host-venue requirements, and other laws that mandatorily apply to conduct, activities, property, safety, or occurrences at the Event.

Severability. If any provision is found invalid or unenforceable, it will be limited or modified to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in effect.

No Waiver. A failure or delay in enforcing any provision does not waive the right to enforce that or another provision later.

Assignment. The Participant may not assign or transfer its registration, benefits, rights, or obligations without prior written approval from HPLS. HPLS may assign these Terms only to an affiliated entity or successor responsible for producing or administering the Event.

Order of Precedence. These Terms control if they conflict with general promotional materials. A registration confirmation or separately executed sponsorship agreement controls only with respect to the specific benefits or obligations expressly stated in that document.

Updates. HPLS may update these Terms when reasonably necessary to address legal, safety, venue, or operational requirements. HPLS will provide reasonable notice of material changes. Except where circumstances beyond HPLS's reasonable control make performance impracticable, an update will not materially reduce a paid benefit without a reasonably comparable substitute, credit, or other appropriate remedy.

Entire Agreement. These Terms, together with the applicable registration confirmation and any separately executed sponsorship agreement, constitute the entire agreement concerning the Participant's Law Expo participation and supersede prior oral or written statements on the same subject.

Electronic Communications. The Participant consents to receive Event-related notices and communications electronically at the email address provided during registration.

Headings. Section headings are provided for convenience and do not limit or alter the meaning of the provisions.

28. Contact Information

Questions, accommodation requests, Representative substitutions, required notices, reports of prohibited conduct, requests from public institutions, and questions concerning these Terms should be directed to: The National HBCU Pre-Law Summit, info@hbcuprelawsummit.org.
