<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">Looking down from an
airplane flying high above the Rosen Centre Hotel you would see a long tall
structure oriented in a mostly east-west direction. It would appear to be very
slightly V-shaped. Extending from the point of the ‘V’ you would see a long low
structure oriented in a mostly north-south direction. Toward the south end of
the low structure you would see a covered bridge about the length of a football
field extending toward the west and connecting into the West Building of the
Orange County Convention Center, a second very large low structure with a mostly
east-west orientation. Your pilot might quibble a bit with you about your
notions of north-south and east-west. If so, just tell the pilot that they will
do quite nicely for navigation from the Hotel lobby to the Exhibit Hall, even
though they might end you up on the wrong continent if you were flying across
the Atlantic. So, put away your compass and enjoy the
convention.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">Back on the ground as
you enter the Hotel through the revolving doors at the main entrance you will be
facing south. You will be at about the center of the 24-story east-west wing of
the Hotel. The main Hotel elevators will be directly ahead of you in a U-shaped
elevator lobby. Slightly to your right (west) of the opening into the elevator
lobby is the entrance to the long two-story north-south wing of the Hotel.
Turning slightly to your left (east) takes you to the Hotel check-in desk, which
is located on the south wall of the east-west wing. Opposite the Hotel check-in
desk on the north wall of the east-west wing is the Bell Stand and the Concierge
Desk. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">All of the sleeping
rooms are located in the 24-story east-west wing. The first three elevators on
each side of the U-shaped elevator lobby serve floors 2 through 15. The last two
elevators on each side serve floors 2 and 16 through 24. A short passageway on
the west side of the elevator lobby between the third and fourth elevators
serves as a shortcut between the elevator lobby and the north-south wing. It
also serves as a convenient landmark to separate the low-floor elevators and the
high-floor elevators. When you exit the elevator lobby on the sleeping room
floors, the rooms ending in numbers 1 through 32 are east of the elevator lobby,
and the sleeping rooms ending in numbers 33 through 64 are west of the elevator
lobby. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">West of the main
entrance along the north wall of the east-west wing is Smooth Java, a full
service coffee bar featuring Starbucks coffee. Beyond the coffee bar across the
end of the wing is the entrance to the Spa and Fitness Center. Just before the
entrance to the Spa and Fitness Center is a door on the north wall to the
outside. This door will be the most convenient way to reach one of the two dog
relief areas at the Hotel. The Hotel gift shop is located on the south wall just
before the Spa and Fitness Center.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">All of the Hotel
meeting rooms, restaurants, and other food and beverage areas are located in the
two-story north-south wing. (There are a few meetings which will take place in
Hotel hospitality suites, which are located on the second floor of the east-west
wing.) <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">As you enter the
north-south wing from the north end and head south, the large Lobby Bar which
serves a variety of hot and cold foods as well as beverages is located on the
west side. Beyond the Lobby Bar are many doors leading to the outside deck and
pool area. On the east side is the 98Forty Tapas and Tequila Bar featuring forty
premium tequilas and Spanish and Mexican specialties. Just beyond 98Forty is the
Banshoo sushi bar followed by Red’s Deli. This deli is open 24 hours a day and
is a combination of convenience store and quick-service restaurant. The
restaurant part of the operation opens at 6:30 am and continues until midnight,
offering hot and cold deli-style sandwiches, salads, pizza, hot entrees, and
desserts, either for dine-in or takeout to your room or the outside eating area
near the pools. Continuing south beyond Red’s Deli you will find the Hotel’s two
full service restaurants—Café Gaugin (which is open for breakfast, lunch, and
dinner) and Everglades (which is open for dinner only).

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">Opposite the
Everglades Restaurant you will find the Grand Staircase. Two separate curved
flights merge into one on a landing and continue in a single flight to the
second floor meeting rooms. When you enter the curved stairs from the lobby
level you are heading west. The single flight from the landing reverses
direction so that when you come off the stairway onto the second floor, you are
facing east. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">Continuing south
beyond the Grand Staircase the floor surface changes from Terrazzo to carpet,
and you enter the Ballroom Prefunction Foyer. (NFB preregistration,
registration, banquet ticket sales, and Information Desk will be located
here.) <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">Along the east side
are seven sets of doors leading into the Grand Ballroom. Opposite the fifth set
of doors are escalators and a staircase leading to the second floor meeting
rooms and to the covered bridge walkway to the West Building of the Convention
Center. The staircase is between the two escalators. The “up” escalator is on
the west side of the staircase. The “down” escalator is on the east side of the
staircase. Beyond the escalators and staircase is an elevator to the second
floor. Just before the escalators on the west wall of the Grand Ballroom
Prefunction Foyer is an exterior door leading to another dog relief area.

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">The Junior Ballroom
is located on the east side of the Prefunction Foyer just beyond the Grand
Ballroom. There are two sets of doors into Section F of the Junior Ballroom
followed by two sets of doors into Section G. The Executive Ballroom is opposite
the Junior Ballroom on the west side of the Prefunction Foyer. We do not have
any activities in the Executive Ballroom. The Prefunction Foyer ends with a door
to the outside just beyond the Junior Ballroom. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">The second floor
meeting rooms consist of 24 salons numbered 1 through 24 and the Signature Two
meeting room. Salons 1 through 12 are located along both sides of a U-shaped
east-west corridor found immediately opposite the opening to the Grand
Staircase. The numbering system begins with Salon 1 starting on the left (north)
side of the corridor as you enter it continuing consecutively through Salon 6 on
the north side, crossing over to Salon 7 on the south side and running back up
the ‘U’ through Salon 12 on the south side of the “U,” which is opposite Salon 1
at the entry point into the “U” on the north side. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">Leaving the “U” you
are facing west. Turning left (south) the first Salon on the east side of the
north-south corridor is Salon 13. Salons 14 through 24 follow consecutively
south along the east side of this corridor. If when leaving the “U” you turn
right (north), you are headed toward the intersection of the north-south second
floor meeting room corridor with the east-west corridor of the 24-floor sleeping
room wing. Turning left (west) at this intersection takes you to a number of
hospitality suite parlors, where some meetings are scheduled. The numbering
system of the hospitality suites follows the same pattern as the numbering for
sleeping rooms. Turning right (east) at the intersection takes you to the
elevator lobby serving the sleeping rooms. All ten elevators in the main bank of
elevators serving the sleeping rooms have a stop on the second
floor. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">Salons 13 through 24
are located directly above the Grand and Junior Ballrooms along the east side of
a north-south corridor that is above the north-south Ballroom Prefunction Foyer.
The escalators and staircase originating in the Ballroom Prefunction Foyer
opposite the fifth set of Grand Ballroom doors terminate on this second floor
corridor opposite Salon 19. Signature Two meeting room is located opposite Salon
17 west of the escalators and staircase. The entryway to the covered bridge to
the Convention Center West Building is located west of these escalators. A
Smooth Java Express coffee bar is located just before the beginning of the
bridge. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P><SPAN

style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">The covered bridge
walkway to the West Building of the Convention Center is 343 feet—slightly
longer than the length of a football field. It connects to the second level of
the West Building. You enter the West Building at the extreme east end of the
West Concourse running from east to west. There will be food and beverages
available for purchase from mobile concession stands located along the
Concourse. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">The doors to our
Exhibit Hall and Independence Market are on the south side of the West Concourse
at the point where you enter the Convention Center. We are using meeting rooms
W202, W203, and W204 (each of which divides into three sections) on the north
side of the Concourse. Further west beyond these meeting rooms there is a short
balcony extending north from the main Concourse. We are using two meeting rooms
W205 and W206 (each of which divides into three sections) which are located on
the east and west sides of this balcony.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">The full length of
the West Concourse from east to west is a few feet more than a half mile. The
Rosen Plaza Hotel is located just beyond the west end of the Concourse. The
Exhibit Hall and meeting rooms we are using extend only about a fourth of the
way along the Concourse toward the termination at the west end. It is possible
to leave the Rosen Plaza Hotel, walk a short distance to an entry door to the
second level of the West Concourse, walk the entire distance through the
air-conditioned Concourse to the covered bridge walkway to the Rosen Centre
Hotel, and travel across the walkway to the meeting room level of the Rosen
Centre Hotel. The exterior doors of the Convention Center at the Rosen Plaza end
will be open for entry from 6 am to 8 pm. The exterior doors of the Convention
Center at the Rosen Centre end will be open for entry from 6 am to 11 pm. Doors
at both ends will be open for exit 24 hours daily. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P><SPAN
