WINNER SELECTION: Fifty (50) potential winners will be selected in a random drawing held on or about December 1, 2024 from among all eligible Entries received. The random drawing will be conducted by Sponsor, whose decisions are final on all matters relating to this Contest.

WINNER NOTIFICATION: Potential prize winners will be notified by Sponsor via email and/or phone using the contact information associated with the potential winner’s MyMike’s account. The notified winner must respond within twenty-four (24) hours of notification or a new winner will be drawn.

PRIZE: Each winner will receive one calendar year’s worth of subs from the Sponsor (paid in the form of one or more gift cards, in Sponsor’s discretion, adding up to a total of $825). The aggregate approximate retail value of the prizes is $41,250 (“ARV”), which is comprised of gift cards totaling $41,250. The amount of each prize was calculated based on one sub, chip, and fountain drink (valued at approximately $15.86) per week for fifty-two (52) calendar weeks. The ARV is subject to market conditions, which can fluctuate, and any difference between actual market value and ARV will not be awarded to the winner.

CLAIMING THE PRIZE: Each winner must provide Sponsor with all information required to claim the prize (including tax identification information). Each winner shall sign and return to Sponsor a liability/publicity release, affidavit of eligibility, and a tax indemnification guarantee (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Required Documentation”) by a date determined by Sponsor in form and substance satisfactory to Sponsor in order to be eligible to receive the prize. If (i) any of the Required Documentation is not completed, signed, and/or returned within the stated time, (ii) the winner is deemed by Sponsor to be ineligible or not to have complied with these Official Rules, or (iii) the winner refuses to accept or fails to claim the prize, then the prize will be forfeited by the winner and an alternate winner may be selected from among all eligible entries timely received, if time permits. If a winner is not reachable at the email address provided to Sponsor or if a notification is returned as undeliverable, then the prize will be forfeited and an alternate winner may be selected. The prize will be delivered within thirty (30) days of the winner delivering the signed Required Documentation to Sponsor.

TAXES: Each winner is responsible for any and all federal, state and local taxes, fees and other government assessments on the awarded prize. Furthermore, the winner acknowledges that federal and/or state law requires that a tax withholding on certain prize values must be collected from the winner upon award or distribution. Federal and/or state withholding laws are subject to change without notice. The withholding laws in effect at the time the prize is claimed will be followed, and the winner of the prize may be issued an Internal Revenue Service Form W-2G by Sponsor (if required), which the winner will be required to sign at a time and place determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion. As a condition to delivery of the prize and within a period to be determined by Sponsor, the winner will be required to submit to Sponsor in full the estimated tax withholding payment for the prize (if any). Failure to make the estimated tax withholding payment in a timely fashion as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion will subject the winner’s Entry Form to invalidation. In such event, a new winner will be randomly selected from the pool of remaining eligible participants. Each winner is also responsible for any travel or delivery charges incurred to accept the prize.

CANCELLATION; TERMINATION OF CONTEST: By choosing to participate in this Contest, each participant acknowledges and agrees that Sponsor has the right, in its sole discretion, to elect not to proceed with this Contest for any reason whatsoever or for no reason, and in such event, a participant will not be entitled to any remedy whatsoever.
