otherwise). It is intended that the Agreement shall be concluded and signed following

good faith negotiations within 60 (sixty) days following the date of submission of the

element of signage in order to permit evaluation of the most appropriate solution. Cost and

relative quality/specification of materials will be key factors in the consideration.

NOTE: Applicants should ensure that the re-use of signage across all Venues is maximised in

order to provide cost efficiencies wherever possible and increase the quantity of branding

available at each Venue.

IBC is seeking to appoint a suitably experienced organisation to provide the following

services:

original artwork, installation, production, maintenance, cleaning, removal and
