Property agrees to honor the rates, availability, compensation and other terms listed herein. Property shall direct all group/event participant reservations through contracted block and rate and shall apply all reservations made for group/participant as reservations payable to Alliance RFP Only Demo according to the compensation terms defined herein. Contracted block is exclusively retained by Alliance RFP Only Demo up to the release date and Property may not knowingly place group/event participants at Property through another rate code bypassing the Alliance RFP Only Demo block in an attempt to bypass the compensations terms. Property shall direct all group/event bookings to event host web site: https://groups.reservetravel.com/group.aspx?id=26144. If Property is unable to refer guest and accepts call-in reservations under contracted block, all guest names and confirmation numbers must be entered into the Alliance RFP Only Demo Rooming List Application accessible through the link provided after contract is accepted; or must be made available to an Alliance RFP Only Demo representative upon request.
Alliance RFP Only Demo will email a Final Reconciliation Report to the Property on the first business day following the event check out date of: 12/10/2018. This reconciliation report becomes the invoice list on the 7th day following delivery; or, after the property has submitted all additional, or appropriate changes to any reservation status. If a commissionable rate is offered, Property agrees to pay commissions and/or rebates and other forms of compensations contained here on all consumed group/event inventory as updated and verified on the reconciliation report within sixty (60) days of the guest departure or be subject to finance charges equal to 1 1/2% monthly.
Unless cancelled by Alliance RFP Only Demo or the guest directly, all Property rooms booked hereunder shall be held open for the guest's arrival until after midnight the morning following the scheduled arrival date. Each Property shall use reasonable efforts to accommodate guests arriving after such time, but shall not be obligated to do so. In the event a Property needs to relocate a customer due to overselling of the Property, Property agrees to use reasonable efforts to notify Alliance RFP Only Demo and to locate, transport and provide relocated customers to reasonable alternative accommodations in the immediate area. Property will bear any additional expense for providing alternate accommodations to the relocated customer. Should Property relocate a guest with confirmed reservations, Property will still be responsible for paying Alliance RFP Only Demo compensation on those actualized relocated room nights at the same compensation level as the contracted block.
