contact the entrant by phone, direct message, or email accounts provided on the
entry form by you to administer and fulfill a sweepstakes or contest.

modify a sweepstakes or contest, or any part of it, for any reason whatsoever,
including, without limitation, fire, flood, natural or man-made epidemic of health of
other means, tropical storm, hurricane, earthquake, explosion, labor dispute or
strike, act of God or public enemy, satellite or equipment failure, riot or civil
disturbance, terrorist threat or activity, war (declared or undeclared) or any

discretion. If a sweepstakes or contest is terminated before the designated end
date, Sponsor will (if possible) select the winners in a random drawing from all
eligible, non-suspect entries received as of the date of the event giving rise to the
termination. Inclusion in such drawing shall be each entrant’s sole and exclusive
remedy under such circumstances. Sponsor reserves the right in its sole
discretion to disqualify any individual it finds to be tampering with the entry
process or the operation of a sweepstakes or contest or to be acting in violation
of these Official Rules or any other promotion or in an unsportsmanlike or
disruptive manner. Any attempt by any person to deliberately undermine the
legitimate operation of a sweepstakes or contest may be a violation of criminal
and civil law, and, should such an attempt be made, Sponsor reserves the right
to seek damages from any such person to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Only the type and quantity of prizes described in these Official Rules will be
awarded. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of these rules shall
not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision. In the event that
any provision is determined to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable or illegal,
these rules shall otherwise remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance
with their terms as if the invalid or illegal provision were not contained herein.
Sponsor’s failure to enforce any term of these Official Rules shall not constitute a
waiver of that provision.

9. Limitations of Liability: The Released Parties as set forth above are not
responsible for: (1) any incorrect or inaccurate information, whether caused by
entrants, printing errors or by any of the equipment or programming associated
with or utilized in the Sweepstakes; (2) technical failures of any kind, including,
but not limited to malfunctions, interruptions, or disconnections in phone lines or
network hardware or software; (3) unauthorized human intervention in any part of
the entry process or a sweepstakes or contest; (4) technical or human error
which may occur in the administration of a sweepstakes or contest or the
processing of entries; or (5) any injury or damage to persons or property which
may be caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, from entrant’s
participation in a sweepstakes or contest, or receipt or use or misuse of any
prize. If for any reason an entry is confirmed to have been erroneously deleted,
lost, or otherwise destroyed or corrupted, entrant’s sole remedy is another entry
in a sweepstakes or contest, provided that if it is not possible to award another
entry due to discontinuance of a sweepstakes or contest, or any part of it, for any
reason, Sponsor, at its discretion, may elect to hold a random drawing from
among all eligible entries received up to the date of discontinuance for any or all
of the prizes offered herein. Entrant further agrees and acknowledges that
Sponsor reserves the right to forfeit or award any unclaimed or leftover prize at

enforceability of these Official Rules, or the rights and obligations of the entrant
and Sponsors in connection with a sweepstakes or contest, shall be governed
by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Arizona, without
