WINNER NOTIFICATION:

Potential Winners will be announced via email or phone, as well as through a conference, press release, and communication via the Sponsor’s own channels no later than January 15, 2026. Winning a prize is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements set forth herein. If a potential Winner does not respond within seventy two (72) hours after the first attempt to notify such potential Winner that such potential Winner has been selected to receive a prize, such potential Winner will be deemed to have forfeited such prize, and the Entrant with the next highest total score will be selected as an alternate potential Winner in such potential Winner’s place. If such alternate potential Winner does not respond within seventy-two (72) hours after the first attempt to notify such alternate potential Winner that such alternate potential Winner has been selected to receive a prize, Sponsor will select the Entrant that received the next highest total score as a second alternate potential Winner in such first alternate potential Winner’s place. Sponsor may, but need not, continue such a process until all requirements set forth herein for receiving such prize have been met and such prize is claimed. As with the initial potential Winner, any alternate potential Winner will also have seventy-two (72) hours to respond and must satisfy all eligibility and other requirements set forth in these Official Rules.

Except where legally prohibited, each potential Winner will be required to sign and return, within ten (10) calendar days of being notified that such potential Winner has been selected, an Affidavit of Eligibility, Liability & Publicity Release and a Non-Disclosure Agreement (on terms acceptable to Sponsor) in order to claim such potential Winner’s prize. If a potential Winner fails to sign and return the Affidavit of Eligibility, Liability & Publicity Release and a Non- Disclosure Agreement within the required time period, or in the event that a potential Winner is disqualified for any reason, such potential Winner will be deemed to have forfeited such prize, and the Entrant with the next highest total score will be selected as an alternate potential Winner. Noncompliance with the foregoing, failure to abide by these Official Rules, or return of the prize notification as non-deliverable may result in disqualification and naming of an alternate potential Winner.

THE POTENTIAL WINNERS ARE SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION BY SPONSOR, WHOSE DECISIONS ARE FINAL AND BINDING IN ALL MATTERS RELATED TO THE CONTEST. AN ENTRANT IS NOT A WINNER (AND THUS ENTITLED TO ANY PRIZE) UNLESS AND UNTIL ENTRANT’S ELIGIBILITY AND COMPLIANCE WITH THESE OFFICIAL RULES HAVE BEEN VERIFIED AND ENTRANT HAS BEEN NOTIFIED THAT VERIFICATION IS COMPLETE.

Except where legally prohibited, Sponsor reserves the right to conduct background checks on a potential Winner. A Submission constitutes Entrant’s authorization to such background checks without Sponsor providing any additional prior notice or seeking additional permissions or consents from such potential Winner. Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to disqualify any potential Winner based on the results of such background check, if the Sponsor determines in its sole discretion that awarding the prize to such potential Winner might reflect negatively on Sponsor. Sponsor is not obligated to clarify, confirm, or share any specific results of a background check with any potential Winner, whether the background check resulted in disqualification or not. When requested, such potential Winner must provide authorization and complete any forms reasonably needed to facilitate such a background check. If a potential Winner fails to sign and return the required documentation within the period specified by Sponsor, such potential Winner may be disqualified and required to forfeit any claim to a prize.
