4.    PRIZES, CRITERIA, WINNER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION. On or about each winner selection date set forth in Section 3 above, following the end date of each such Contest Entry Period set forth in Section 3 above, Company will select one winner from the applicable pool of Entrants based on the following criteria (the “Prize Criteria”): the Entrant which raised the most funds (as represented by total Program sales in US dollars for a single Program) through a single Program with Promotion Period ending during the month such Contest Entry Period ends. The Entrant meeting the Prize Criteria for such Contest Entry Period (each, a “Monthly Winner”, and collectively, the “Monthly Winners”) will receive a $1,000 cash donation from Company (each, a “Prize”). There will be a maximum of nine Monthly Winners. An Entrant is only eligible to win two Prizes as a Monthly Winner for the duration of the Contest Period.

On or about January 31, 2025, following the end of the Contest Period, Company will select one winner from the applicable pool of Monthly Winners based on the following criteria (the “Grand Prize Criteria”): the Monthly Winner which raised the most funds (as represented by total Program sales in US dollars for a single Program) through a single Program during the Contest Period.  The Monthly Winner meeting the Grand Prize Criteria (the “Grand Prize Winner”) will receive a $10,000 cash donation from the Company (the “Grand Prize”).

For the avoidance of doubt, and subject to the criteria above, if any individual Entrant or Monthly Winner promotes multiple Programs during the Contest Period, Company’s determination of each Monthly Winner and the Grand Prize Winner will be based solely on the funds raised through a single Program, in each instance; funds raised across multiple Programs promoted by any individual Entrant or Monthly Winner shall not be treated cumulatively in Company’s determination of any Monthly Winner or the Grand Prize Winner.

Each Monthly Winner and the Grand Prize Winner (hereinafter, collectively, the “Winners”, and each, a “Winner”) will be notified by one or more of the methods of contact provided to Company by such Winner when such Winner applied to enter an Agreement with Company.
No cash or other prize substitution permitted except at Company’s sole discretion. Any prize is non-transferable. Any Winner is solely responsible for all federal, state and local taxes and other costs pertaining to the awarded Prize and/or Grand Prize, if applicable. Any person winning over $600 in prizes during any one-year period will receive an IRS Form 1099 at the end of the calendar year, and a copy of such form will be filed with the IRS.

Any Winner agrees to allow Company or anyone acting on Company’s behalf, or its respective licensees, successors and assigns will have the right, where permitted by law, without any further notice, review or consent, to use such Winner’s name, portrait, picture, voice, likeness, image or statements about the Contest, and biographical information (whether in print publication, online, or other means of communication), without compensation, for any purpose, including without limitation, as news, publicity or information for trade, advertising, public relations and promotional purposes, and to notify the public of their winnings, and Company reserves the right to use the aforementioned information or materials in perpetuity, unless and to the extent prohibited by law. Company is not obligated to use any of the above-mentioned information or materials, but Company may use and edit such information or materials, at Company’s sole discretion, without further obligation or compensation.

The receipt by any Winner of a Prize and/or the Grand Prize offered in this Contest is conditioned upon compliance with any and all federal and state laws and regulations. ANY VIOLATION OF THESE TERMS BY ANY WINNER (AT COMPANY’S SOLE DISCRETION) WILL RESULT IN SUCH WINNER’S DISQUALIFICATION AS WINNER OF THE CONTEST AND ALL PRIVILEGES AS WINNER WILL BE IMMEDIATELY TERMINATED.
