  2. The application form is considered to have been signed by the duly authorised agent of the applicant, or by any person employed by the applicant and having written authorisation to act on the applicant's behalf. If the applicant uses a sole agent, the aforementioned sole agent should include a copy of the written authorisation from the applicant with the application form.
2. Acceptance
  1. Upon acceptance of an application by the Organisers, the application shall ipso facto become a contract binding on the Exhibitor and the Owners (AMD, ARMSCOR, CAASA and the DoD) on the Terms and Conditions contained herein and in the Exhibition Regulations as contained in the Exhibitor Manual.
