Violation of Rules. All entries of any kind or character and Participants in this annual exhibition are subject to these rules and regulations, and any violations will subject Participants to such penalties as Cattlemen's Congress may order and/or penalties prescribed by law. Alteration of Conformation and Structure by Prohibited Substance or Unethical Fitting. Prohibited Substance and/or Unethical Fitting defined as: The injection, use, or administration of any drug that is prohibited by Federal, State, or Local Law, or any drug that is used in a manner prohibited by Federal, State or Local Law; the injection or internal or external administration of any product or material, whether gas, solid, or liquid, to an animal for the purpose of deception, including concealing, enhancing, or transforming the true conformation, configuration, color, breed, condition or age or by making the animal appear more sound than otherwise would appear; the administration, use or application of any drug or feed additive affecting the central nervous system; the administration of diuretics for cosmetic purposes, tissue manipulation, removal, surgical attachment or otherwise to change, conceal, enhance, or transform the true conformation or configuration of the animal; attaching to the hide foreign objects including hair or hair substitutes, cloth or fiber for the purpose of deception; any physical or physiological attempt to alter the natural musculature or weight by use of injections or ingested material not conducive to the continued health or marketability of beef. Drenching will be allowed with drench guns, but the use of stomach pumps are prohibited. Violation of this rule will result in disqualification with no recourse and be subject to other sanctions. The use of any grooming material which produces artificial color that may be detected by rubbing with a cloth or glove, use of hair or hair-like substance, cloth or fiber anywhere on the animal, ineligible age or illegal substitution of animals, violates these rules and will result in immediate disqualification with no recourse. Participant must leave the grounds immediately and be penalized $150.00 per head. The natural color of any beef animal cannot be altered using any artificial coloring. However, products that match a beef animal's natural color may be used in the fitting process from the knees and hocks down and on the switch only. For example, black products may be used on a black-legged animal, red on a red animal, and white on a white-legged animal. But under no circumstances can color be used to cover an animal’s natural leg color.

Every Participant, by entering any animal for exhibition, thereby releases CC from all claims or demands whatsoever arising from any cause or happening in connection with the inspection of any such animal or any ruling or action taken by reason of the conclusion by Cattlemen's Congress under terms of this rule. In the event any such animal is declared to be in violation of prohibited substance or unethical fitting as aforesaid, Cattlemen's Congress may disqualify and impose such penalties, in addition to those other penalties prescribed by law:

SCHEDULE OF EVENTS: Cattlemen’s Congress reserves the right to cancel events or change scheduling if deemed necessary. APPLICATION FOR ENTRY: All applications for entry must be made on current official Cattlemen's Congress printed entry forms or on-line by going to our official website. Entry forms may be found in the current Cattlemen's Congress Livestock Premium List, or on Cattlemen's Congress’s web site, cattlemenscongress.com or may be obtained free of charge from the Cattlemen's Congress Livestock Office. All entries must be made on-line or mailed to the Livestock Office. Entry forms must be completely filled out in accordance with instructions on the same and signed by appropriate parties.

By submitting application for entry, Participant acknowledges they have read the Cattlemen's Congress Agreement of Responsibility and Liability; General Rules and Regulations; Junior Livestock Show Rules and Regulations; Auction of Junior Livestock Champions Rules and Regulations; specific and/or special division rules and regulations; The National Show Ring Code of Ethics and the Quality Assurance Certificate in accordance with the USDA Wholesome Meat Act, and agree to observe and abide by these rules and regulations.

ACCEPTED ENTRIES: In all cases, Cattlemen’s Congress reserves the right to reject, accept, or conditionally accept any entry from any Participant in violation of any rules and regulations from any Livestock Exhibition, Show or Sale that is sponsored by or under the authority of the State or any unit of Local Government or Agricultural, Horticultural or Livestock Society, Association or Corporation. Cattlemen's Congress does not guarantee space in the show barns to any entry, as it is intended that only such animals shall be entered and shown that have merit and will be a credit to both the Participant and this exposition. The Cattlemen's Congress may appoint a special committee on the opening day of the show to look over the animals entered for exhibition and upon the recommendation of said committee that any animal or animals which do not have such merit as would entitle them to exhibit, Cattlemen's Congress may require them removed from the grounds. Cattlemen's Congress reserves to itself the right to withdraw classification and prizes in any department, upon the closing of entries, where it is found the animals entered would be discreditable to the exhibition.

5

OWNERSHIP OF ANIMALS: Breeding animals in the junior show must be the property of the owner and transferred on or before December 1, 2020. Animals cannot change ownership or be transferred from one program to the other. GROUP CLASSES: Individual animals that are shown in any group classes, must first have been entered and shown in one (1) of the classes for single animals. USE OF ANIMALS FOR JUDGING CONTESTS: All animals entered are subject to use for the Collegiate, Intercollegiate Judging Contest. CARE OF ANIMALS: Participants will be required to attend to their animals while on exhibition and to have them presented to the Judges when called for.

BREED REGISTRATION AND PRACTICES: An animal is eligible to enter and compete in the Cattlemen's Congress in more than one (1) breed classification if the animal is registered in one (1) or more breed associations or registries. Furthermore, the animal must be registered in the recognized U.S. registry for their breed classification or, if registered in the country of origin outside the U.S., the animal must be eligible for registry in the recognized U.S. registry. Each breed association shall have the sole responsibility to assure that its breed registration rules, regulations, procedures, and/or other communications including by way of illustration but not limitation, those relating to percentages of permitted cross breeding, are providing reasonable information to all parties relying upon its breed registration programs and to avoid any deceptive practices and/or unlawful conduct whatsoever. Each Association shall further indemnify, save and hold Cattlemen's Congress and the City of Oklahoma City harmless against any and all losses, claims, costs and/or expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and court costs, resulting from any loss or any claims or legal action of any nature whatsoever, whether or not reduced to judgment, for any liability of any nature whatsoever that may arise against Cattlemen's Congress relating in any way to the development and/or implementation of the breed association’s breed registration rules, regulations and/or procedures. TIE-OUTS: A limited number of tie-outs will be provided for cattle. Stalls will be assigned at the time entry fees are completely paid. FACILITY SPACE/NUMBER OF ENTRIES: If the number of entries exceeds the facility, Cattlemen's Congress reserves the right to reduce entries as necessary. ENTRY NUMBERS: Each entry will be assigned a number. Entry numbers will be provided to all exhibitors. These numbers must be displayed by the exhibitor when the animal is in the show ring.

6

ASSIGNMENT OF PENS AND STALLS: The assignment of stalls will be made at the time entry fees are completely paid and only to animals that arrive at the show. Space will not be assigned for animals entered that do not arrive on the grounds. Entry fees do not dictate stall space. Entry fees will not be refunded. Participants will only receive one (1) stall for every animal delivered to the Cattlemen's Congress, regardless of the number of entries made. A cow-calf pair is considered as one (1) entry; but the Participant is given two (2) stall spaces for the unit. There is no guarantee the requests can or will be honored. APPEARANCE OF EXHIBITS: The stalls, pens and exhibition places must be cleaned before 7:00 a.m. each day For those Participants refusing to keep their stalls, pens and/or exhibits clean and neat, the show reserves the right to have said stalls or pens properly cleaned with the cost to be charged against the Participant. Said cost will be collected from the Participant before release is issued. Participants should be neatly dressed when they take their animals into the show ring. JUDGES: Judges are earnestly requested to familiarize themselves with all the rules and regulations of this show, and to especially mark those rules bearing on the classes to be judged by them. TIME OF JUDGING: The time of judging for all divisions is tentatively listed in this book and on the Cattlemen's Congress website. Any changes will be announced by the public address announcer in a timely manner. DECISION OF THE JUDGE FINAL: The decision of the Judges shall be final in all cases. In cases where fraud, misrepresentation, error or collusion is discovered after awards have been given, Cattlemen's Congress or such referee as may be appointed by Cattlemen's Congress, may make a decision regarding final placement, from whose decision there will be no appeal. AWARDING CHAMPION PRIZES: Judges are directed in all champion classes to provide for a reserve animal. Only first prize winners will be permitted to compete for championships. Second prize winner in class from which champion is chosen is eligible to compete for reserve champion. PROTESTS: All protests must be in writing and be accompanied by five hundred ($500.00) dollars cash or certified check which will be forfeited if protest is not sustained. Such protest must state plainly the cause of the complaint or appeal and must be delivered to Cattlemen's Congress immediately after the occasion for such protest. Protests must be submitted either prior to judging or immediately after the conclusion of class judging. Once an animal reaches championship judging, no protest will be accepted. Judging procedures will not be interrupted for protest investigation; and depending on the basis of the protest, a decision may be withheld until a thorough investigation is completed. No complaint or appeal that Judges overlooked an animal will be considered. REMOVAL OF EXHIBITS: With the accepted entry in this show, Participants are expected to keep their animals on grounds until the designated time for release, unless otherwise provided for in these regulations (refer to Arrival and Release Dates and Times). If necessary, individual animals sold in auctions on the show grounds may be released by securing the consent of the management. FORCE MAJEURE AND GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION: In view of the fact that the Cattlemen’s Congress is a non-profit corporation depending to a great degree upon the contributions and services of a substantial number of donors and volunteers, as well as the benefits provided by Cattlemen's

7

Congress to the general public through education and related services as set forth in the Preamble to these General Rules and Regulations, Cattlemen's Congress deems it appropriate and prudent to be excused from liability, as set forth below in this paragraph, in the event of early cancellation of its events, operations and activities by reason of force majeure and/or governmental regulation. Accordingly, the following shall apply to the operations and activities conducted by the Cattlemen's Congress. FORCE MAJEURE: Cattlemen’s Congress shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform its operations activities, shows and events to the extent such delay or failure results from a force majeure occurrence. A force majeure occurrence is defined as any occurrence arising from causes beyond the reasonable control of CC and which delays or prevents performance by CC otherwise required by this Agreement, including but not limited to any (i) breakage or accident to equipment, machinery or facilities; (ii) any strikes, lock-outs or other labor difficulties; (iii) statutes, ordinances, regulations, orders, or rules issued by governmental authorities relate to COVID 19 or other pandemic matters; (iv) judicial decrees or orders; (v) acts of God; (vi) animal diseases and/or quarantines; (vii) wars, riots or insurrections; (viii) civil disobediences, public demonstrations or sabotage; (ix) fires, floods, explosions or inclement weather; (x) inability to obtain necessary labor, materials, supplies, utilities or transportation; (xi) depressions, recessions or other economic downturns; (xii) embargoes or energy shortages; or (xiii) other causes beyond Cattlemen's Congress’s reasonable control.

Livestock Health Requirements Please share this information with the accredited veterinarian issuing paperwork. If you have questions, please contact the State Veterinarian’s Office. IMPORTANT ANIMAL IDENTIFICATION UPDATE: An official CVI issued within thirty (30) days prior to the Cattlemen’s Congress must accompany all animals and shall be available at all times to the representatives of the Animal Industry Services of the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture. ALL LIVESTOCK MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY A CERTIFICATE OF VETERINARY INSPECTION (HEALTH CERTIFICATES), WHICH MUST BE CHECKED BEFORE UNLOADING. All CVIs must be validated by Animal Industry Services before animals are given stall or pen space in the barns. All animals must be free of any infectious, communicable or contagious disease and if such a disease is found, it will be cause for removal of the animal(s) from the exhibition. For questions regarding testing, CVI’s, official identification, or import requirements, please call Animal Industry Services at: 405-522-6141.

All cattle moving interstate for exhibition or show events, are required to have official individual identification ear tags present in the ear. To avoid potential problems, all U.S. cattle entering the show grounds will be expected to have a USDA Official ID ear tag present in the ear. The following tags are considered official: Orange Metal Official, Calfhood Vaccinate (OCV/Bang’s) tag, Silver Metal USDA tag, 840 RFID tag, visual/panel 840 ear tag, or an ear tag with the U.S. seal and “Unlawful to Remove” plus a unique animal number. Examples of these tags are below. Cattle without proper identification will have one placed at the discretion of the State Veterinarian’s office and the owner’s expense. Please call Animal Industry Services at: 405-522-6141 or or go to http://ag.ok.gov/ais/oair.pdf for requirements or if you have any questions.

INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF FAIRS AND EXPOSITIONS

NATIONAL CODE OF SHOW RING ETHICS Exhibitors of animals at livestock shows shall at all times deport themselves with honesty and good sportsmanship. Their conduct in this competitive environment shall always reflect the highest standards of honor and dignity to promote the advancement of agricultural education. This code applies to junior as well as open class exhibitors who compete in structured classes of competition. This code applies to all livestock offered in any event at a livestock show. In addition to the “IAFE National Code of Show Ring Ethics”, fairs and livestock shows may have rules and regulations which they impose on the local, county, state, provincial and national levels. All youth leaders working with junior exhibitors are under an affirmative responsibility to do more than avoid improper conduct or questionable acts. Their moral values must be so certain and positive that those younger and more pliable will be influenced by their fine example. Owners, exhibitors, fitters, trainers and absolutely responsible persons who violate the code of ethics will forfeit premiums, awards and auction proceeds and shall be prohibited from future exhibition in accordance with the rules adopted by the respective fairs and livestock shows. Exhibitors who violate this code of ethics demean the integrity of all livestock exhibitors and should be prohibited from competition at all livestock shows in the United States and Canada. The following is a list of guidelines for all exhibitors and all livestock in competitive events: 1. All exhibitors must present, upon request of fair and livestock show officials, proof of ownership, length of ownership and age of all animals entered. Misrepresentation of ownership, age or any facts relating thereto is prohibited.

2. Owners, exhibitors, fitters, trainers, or absolutely responsible persons shall provide animal health certificates from licensed veterinarians upon request by fair or livestock show officials.

3. Junior exhibitors are expected to care for and groom their animals while at fairs or livestock shows.

4. Animals shall be presented to show events where they will enter the food chain free of violative drug residues. The act of entering an animal in a livestock show is the giving of consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, and/or absolutely responsible person for show management to obtain any specimens of urine, saliva, blood or other substances from the animal to be used in testing. Animals not entered in an event which culminates in the animals entering the food chain shall not be administered drugs other than in accordance with applicable federal, state and provincial statutes, regulations and rules. Livestock shall not be exhibited if the drugs administered in accordance with federal, state and provincial statutes, regulations and rules affect the animal’s performance or appearance at the event.

If the laboratory report on the analysis of saliva, urine, blood, or other sample taken from livestock indicates the presence of forbidden drugs or medication, this shall be prima facie evidence such substance has been administered to the animal either internally or externally. It is presumed that the sample of urine, saliva, blood, or other substance tested by the laboratory to which it is sent is the one

135

taken from the animal in question, its integrity is preserved and all procedures of said collection and preservation, transfer, transfer to the laboratory and analysis of the sample are correct and accurate and the report received from the laboratory pertains to the sample taken from the animal in question and correctly reflects the condition of the animal at the time the sample was taken, with the burden on the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person to prove otherwise. At any time after an animal arrives on the fair or livestock show premises, all treatments involving the use of drugs and/or medications for the sole purpose of protecting the health of the animal shall be administered by a licensed veterinarian. 5. Any surgical procedure or injection of any foreign substance or drug or the external application of any substance (irritant, counterirritant, or similar substance) which could affect the animal’s performance or alter its natural contour, conformation, or appearance, except the external applications of substances to the hoofs or horns of animals which affect appearance only and except for surgical procedures performed by a duly licensed veterinarian for the sole purpose of protecting the health of the animal, is prohibited.

6. The use of showing and/or handling practices or devices such as striking animals to cause swelling, using electrical contrivance, or other similar practices are not acceptable and are prohibited.

7. Direct criticism or interference with the judge, fair or livestock show management, other exhibitors, breed representatives, or show officials before, during, or after the competitive event is prohibited. In the furtherance of their official duty, all judges, fair and livestock show management, or other show officials shall be treated with courtesy, cooperation and respect and no person shall direct abusive or threatening conduct toward them.

8. No owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person shall conspire with another person or persons to intentionally violate this code of ethics or knowingly contribute or cooperate with another person or persons either by affirmative action or inaction to violate this code of ethics. Violation of this rule shall subject such individual to disciplinary action.

9. The application of this code of ethics provides for absolute responsibility for an animal’s condition by an owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or participant whether or not he or she was actually instrumental in or had actual knowledge of the treatment of the animal in contravention of this code of ethics.

10. The act of entering an animal is the giving of consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person to have disciplinary action taken by the fair or livestock show for violation of this Code of Show Ring Ethics and any other rules of competition of the fair or livestock show without recourse against the fair or livestock show. The act of entering an animal is the giving of consent that any proceedings or disciplinary action taken by the fair or livestock show may be published with the name of the violator or violators in any publication of the International Association of Fairs and Expositions, including Fairs and Expositions and any special notices to members.

11. The act of entering of an animal in a fair or livestock show is the giving of verification by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person that he or she has read the IAFE National Code of Show Ring Ethics and understands the consequences of and penalties provided for actions prohibited by the code. It is further a consent that any action which contravenes these rules and is also in violation

136

of federal, state, or provincial statutes, regulations, or rules may be released to appropriate law enforcement authorities with jurisdiction over such infractions.
