Operative words
"The health and safety of our attendees and suppliers is paramount"; "the vast majority of states prohibit all out-of-state travel until further notice"; "We believe it would be neither feasible nor wise to ask or expect our attendees and vendors as well as our own staff to travel to Indianapolis in October, especially in light of the recent surge in cases throughout the Sunbelt and now in many Midwestern states" (STN, August 26, 2020, Ex. SEC-21-GM-006)

Notes
2020: TSD postponed March 13, 2020 ('moving forward with the event posed too big of a risk to our attendees and vendors'; 'Holding TSD now is simply not the right thing to do'); rescheduled April 30, 2020 to a combined October 8-13, 2020 event in Indianapolis; cancelled August 26, 2020 with a virtual TSD November 9-11, 2020 (Ex. SEC-21-GM-006). 2021: STN EXPO Indianapolis held June 2021 and TSD held November 2021 (STN coverage, read); a TSD 2022 postponement notice (January 27, 2022) attributed the change to 'health and staffing concerns'. Usual dates: TSD in March; STN EXPO Indianapolis in June. Scale: Not stated. Venue orders 2020: MET-DFW-002, MET-DFW-003, TX-003, MET-IND-020, MET-IND-022, MET-IND-025, MET-IND-029, MET-IND-033.
