We propose three plans for collaboration. The details are as follows:

school but La Forum will be Title Sponsor of the Event. The school is required to
bring certain amount of delegation from outside. Advertisements and marketing for
the school will be done by us and the profits will be divided as per the sharing ratio of
the contribution.

2. The School becomes our Venue Partner:

for all the amenities and logistic support. The amount of charge is to be discussed
between the management of the school and La Forum.

3. La Forum will act as Silent Host

Total amount of contribution is made by La Forum but the event is to be conducted in
the name of School. Total Advertisements and marketing will be done for the School.
School will get whole publishing rights for the events. The profits or losses are to be
considered by La Forum.

The dates of the conference are to be discussed and decided by the school management. The
School is required to form a public speaking society with two convenors leading the society
for smooth conduct of the event. The school may wish to keep the society running even after
the event to support the growth of Public Speaking Culture among the students.

Terms and Conditions of the hosting of the event can be discussed by the management of
both of the schools and La Forum. The company bounds no educational institution to enter
into a contract for specific performance or for a time duration. A Memorandum of
Understating (MOU) need to be signed by both, the school and La Forum on the Terms and
Conditions discussed and decided to host the event.
