Commented [AH1]: While our offices are closed to the

Commented [AH2]: It is recommended, though not
required, to have a free method of entry (i.e. online) with
text contests. Just FYI.
Commented [AH3]: The Contest Period expires before
the last drawing, so that is why we have to provide the date
range. Just FYI as drafting tip.
Commented [AW4]: If there are 10 gift cards, why only
one winner selected?

integrity or proper functioning of the Contest, as determined by Station in its sole discretion. Station
reserves the right in its sole discretion to disqualify any individual it finds to be tampering with the entry
process or the operation of the Contest or to be acting in violation of these Official Rules or acting in an
unsportsmanlike or disruptive manner. Any attempt by any person to deliberately undermine the legitimate
operation of the Contest may be a violation of criminal and civil law, and, should such an attempt be made,
Station reserves the right to seek damages from any such person to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Station’s failure to enforce any term of these Official Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that provision.
11. Limitations of Liability. The Released Parties are not responsible for: (1) any incorrect or inaccurate

part, from entrant’s participation in the Contest or receipt or use, non-use or misuse of any prize. No more

other error causes more than stated number of prizes as set forth in these Official Rules to be claimed,
Station reserves the right to award only the stated number of prizes by a random drawing among all
legitimate, unawarded, eligible prize claims.

and any other damages, other than for actual out-of-pocket expenses, and any and all rights to have

LIMITATIONS OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. All issues and questions concerning the
construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of these Official Rules, or the rights and
obligations of entrant and Station in connection with the Contest, shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the state in which the Station is located, without giving effect to any choice
of law or conflict of law rules (whether of the state in which the Station is located or any other jurisdiction),
which would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the state in which the Station
is located.
