I hereby agree to the following terms and conditions when presenting my educational presentation (“Presentation”) at the 2026 LMA Annual Conference from April 20-22, 2026 in New Orleans and/or as a pre-conference offering leading up to the Annual Conference.

• I will prepare the Presentation in handout, PowerPoint or other digital format as required by LMA, and agree to participate in content development calls with LMA and/or members of the Annual Conference Advisory Committee (ACAC).
• I hereby grant LMA a non-exclusive, unrestricted, irrevocable license to broadcast, record, and/or livestream the Presentation (including, without limitation, any materials presented), to prepare a transcript of the Presentation, to edit the Presentation, and to reprint or otherwise reproduce, in written, video, audio or electronic format, the Presentation and/or any recording or transcript of the Presentation for the purpose of publishing and distributing, by sale or otherwise, the Presentation, individually or as part of a compilation, to third-party distributors, media outlets, and other interested parties, for the benefit of LMA. Such license includes the irrevocable right to use my name, likeness, voice and biographical information in connection with the Presentation. If the Presentation and/or Presentation materials are published, LMA will own all rights in and to the Program proceedings and any like compilations and any recordings of the Presentation made by LMA or its designees, but will have no other ownership rights in the Presentation. This license also includes the right for LMA to process, analyze, and enhance the content of the Virtual Learning using artificial intelligence (AI) tools for purposes such as summarization, content development, and other enhancements aligned with LMA’s educational and promotional objectives. LMA retains ownership of any AI-enhanced content and any derivative works created from the original content. Other than the acknowledgement I will receive from LMA and others for my participation, I understand and agree that LMA will owe me no royalty or other compensation for my contribution to the Presentation or the rights granted herein.
• I hereby represent that, to the best of my knowledge, (a) the Presentation will be accurate and will not violate any copyright, proprietary rights or personal rights of others including rights of privacy and publicity; (b) any materials, including photographs, I provide for the Presentation do not identify, by name or otherwise, suggest the identity of, or present a recognizable likeness of any individual or individuals; or, if they do, I have obtained all necessary consents from such individual(s) for the further use, distribution and publication of such materials; and (c) the Presentation will be educational in nature, will not promote any product or service, and will not contain any false or misleading statements regarding any products or services or include statements or materials that are anticompetitive, slanderous, libelous or otherwise illegal, offensive or inappropriate.

• I understand and acknowledge that registration lists are considered confidential to LMA, and I will not receive a copy of attendee email addresses.
• I understand that LMA reserves the right to cancel my Presentation and/or the Program and has no obligation to broadcast, record, or otherwise distribute it. Likewise, LMA may change the length, format or place/delivery method (in-person, virtual or hybrid) at its discretion. In the event of such cancellation or change, LMA will not be responsible for any damages I may incur.
• If, for any reason, I am unable to fulfill my obligation to make a Presentation at the Program, I will, upon LMA’s request, provide a substitute speaker acceptable to LMA. Alternatively, LMA may, in its sole discretion, allow me to deliver the presentation virtually, if technology and circumstances allow. In addition, I will be responsible for any out-of-pocket expenses (e.g., travel; lodging) that LMA incurs as a result of the cancellation.
• Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither LMA nor I will be in default hereunder by reason of a delay in performing, or failure to perform, any obligation hereunder if such delay or failure is caused by occurrences or circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including, without limitation, strikes, acts of God, government orders, epidemics and pandemics, war, acts of terrorism, riots, or interference by civil or military authorities. If the Presentation and/or Program are capable of being rescheduled, I will work with LMA to find a mutually agreeable alternative date.
• LMA acknowledges Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools have many benefits, but their use also carries a number of risks. Speaker agrees to only use AI tools for the following authorized purposes: idea generation, general-knowledge questions and research meant to enhance Speaker’s understanding on a topic, and to summarize online research or to create outlines for content projects to assist in full coverage of a topic. Speaker is prohibited from using AI Tools to infringe the rights of others, including privacy and intellectual property rights, create final work product (including the Presentation and Presentation Materials), and create content to be distributed by LMA. While using AI tools, Speaker may not enter any LMA or third-party confidential, trade secret, or other personal or proprietary information into a prompt for an AI Tool. Speaker shall comply with all LMA policies and guidelines on use of AI tools.
• I hereby indemnify and hold harmless LMA, its officers, directors, members, and staff from and against any and all claims, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), and liabilities whatsoever arising out of my breach of any of the representations set forth in this Agreement. I further waive any and all claims I may have against LMA, its directors, officers, members, and staff, and release and discharge them from any claim related to the Program or the manner in which it is conducted, except for any third-party claim arising from a change made by LMA that alters the meaning or accuracy of any statements I make, or information I provide, for the Presentation.
