     your exhibit location (North or West). If you are using one of the overnight courier
     services such as Federal Express, DHL, etc., your shipment cannot be delivered on the
     weekend to the Moscone Convention Center. See Targeted Floor plan for allowable days.
     Off Target deliveries will be charged extra.

3.   BASIC REMINDERS
     The following are basic reminders that will help you in preparing your booth displays
     and products for shipment:

     Insure all shipments from the time that they leave your company until they
     return from the show. Your present insurance company can add a rider to your
     current policy.

     Pack your materials properly in sturdy shipping crates or containers.

            Label your shipments with the following information included:

            Company Name
            Booth Number
            Game Developers Conference
     Ship early and prepay all shipments. All shipments received at the show site will be
     delivered after all advance shipments made to the GES warehouse.

     Whether you route your shipments through the official show carriers or through your
     regular carrier, use only those carriers that provide bills of lading showing a piece count
     and weight. Do not store your product in cartons, crates, or boxes labeled for empty
     storage.

     At the close of the show, pick up a bill of lading from the GES Service Desk. Provide all
     information for re-forwarding shipments on the bill of lading and return to the GES
     Service Desk by 3pm on Saturday, February 23, 2008.

4.   CONTAINER REMOVAL, ACCESSIBLE STORAGE AND EMPTIES RETURN
     Fire regulations prohibit storage of crates, cartons, and literature behind booths. All
     crates and related materials must be removed from the show floor by 4:00pm Tuesday,
     February 19.

     Empty crates will be removed from your exhibit space, stored during the show, and
     returned to your booth at the end of the show, provided they are correctly labeled with
     empty labels. Please remember that empty crates and cartons are returned only if they
     are properly labeled "Empty." Labels are available at the GES Service Desk. Clearly
     mark all labels with your company name and booth number.

     Limited accessible storage will be available during the show hours. Order form is
     located in this section.

5.   DIRECT SHIPMENTS
     Direct shipments to the Moscone Convention Center will only be accepted by GES
     according to the target floorplan. If items arrive off your target move-in times,
     extra charges will be charged. Direct shipments should be addressed as follows:

            Company Name
            Game Developers Conference
            Booth Number
            c/o GES Exposition Services
            Moscone West Convention Center OR       Moscone North Convention Center
            800 Howard Street                       747 Howard Street
                                San Francisco, CA 94103


     The Moscone Convention Center will not accept any advance deliveries made
     prior to Saturday, February 16, 2008 and will be returned to sender.
6.   EARLY RETURNS
     Special arrangements must be made through the GES Service Desk for early return of
     empty containers. A fee will be charged for this service due to limited storage in the
     facility.

     Exhibitors will order this service through the GES Service Desk. When all containers
     are ready for removal, the exhibitor must go to the Service Desk and request a foreman
     to mark the early return containers with special labels. The foreman will come to the
     exhibitor's booth with a labor worker to remove these containers in order to avoid
     confusion with regular empty containers. Do not mark early return containers as
     empty. The foreman will handle all marking.

     delivery, reloading, and processing of all exhibitor freight shipments and is responsible

8.   HAND CARRY ITEMS

     Hall only), providing it can be moved in one trip without the use of dollies, hand trucks
     or other mechanical equipment. See Labor section 5 for more information about the
