activity or participation in this Promotion. Any and all warranties and guarantees are subject to
the respective manufacturer’s terms. If by reason of a printing or other error, more prizes are
claimed than the number set forth in these rules, all persons making purportedly valid claims will

category in question. No more than the advertised number of prizes will be awarded. You
further understand and agree that all rights under Section 1542 of the Civil Code of California
(“Section 1542”) and any similar law of any state or territory of the United States that may be
applicable with respect to the foregoing release are hereby expressly and forever waived. You
acknowledge that Section 1542 provides that: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND
TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR
SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE
RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY
AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.”
The releases hereunder are intended to apply to all claims not known or suspected to exist with
the intent of waiving the effect of laws requiring the intent to release future unknown claims.
6. How Winners will be Determined: One (1) Prize Winner (collectively, the “Prize
Winners”) will be selected in a random drawing from among all eligible Entries received during
each of the eight (8) Entry Periods, as provided in Section 1 of these Official Rules, on or around
each of the Drawing Dates specified in the table above. Prize Winners will be contacted by a
Twitter® direct message on or about three (3) business days following the drawing. Sponsor’s
decisions with respect to Prize Winners, these Official Rules, and all other matters pertaining to
the Promotion shall be final and binding.
A prospective Prize Winner will be required to sign an affidavit of eligibility and release of
liability and publicity (where permitted), and return same, properly executed, within five (5) days
of issuance of prize notification. If Sponsor is unable to contact the prospective Prize Winner
within three (3) days from first notification attempt, if the prospective Prize Winner fails to
complete and return all requested forms by the specified date, if the prospective Prize Winner
does not pass Sponsor’s background check (in its sole discretion), or if the prospective Prize
Winner fails to comply with any of the requirements, his/her prize will be forfeited and an
alternate prospective Prize Winner shall be selected. The odds of winning depend upon the
number of eligible Entries received.
7. Conditions of Entry: Entry materials that have been tampered with or altered are void. If
in the Sponsor’s opinion there is any suspected or actual evidence of electronic or non-electronic
tampering with any portion of the Promotion, or if computer viruses, bugs, unauthorized
intervention, fraud, or technical difficulties or failures compromise or corrupt or affect the
administration, integrity, security, fairness, or proper conduct of the Promotion, the Sponsor
reserves the right at its sole discretion to disqualify any individual who tampers with the entry
process and void any Entries submitted fraudulently, to modify, suspend, or terminate the
Promotion, or to conduct a random drawing to award the prizes using all eligible, non-suspect
Entries received as of the termination date or as otherwise deemed fair and appropriate by
Sponsor. Should the Promotion be terminated prior to the stated expiration date, notice will be
posted on the Website. In the event of a dispute as to the identity of a prospective Prize Winner
based on the Twitter® account, the winning Entry will be declared made by the Authorized
Account Holder of the email address used to register the respective Twitter® account. CAUTION:
ANY ATTEMPT BY YOU TO DELIBERATELY DAMAGE THE WEBSITE OR UNDERMINE THE LEGITIMATE
OPERATION OF THE PROMOTION MAY BE IN VIOLATION OF CRIMINAL AND CIVIL LAWS AND SHOULD SUCH
AN ATTEMPT BE MADE, SPONSOR RESERVES THE RIGHT TO SEEK REMEDIES AND DAMAGES (INCLUDING

ATTORNEYS’ FEES) FROM YOU TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW, INCLUDING CRIMINAL
PROSECUTION.

jurisdiction other than the State of New York. Any action or litigation concerning this
Agreement shall take place exclusively in the federal or state courts sitting in New York County,
New York, and you expressly consent to the jurisdiction of and venue in such courts and waive
