WINNING PLAY HAVE BEEN VERIFIED AND SAID PARTICIPANT HAS BEEN NOTIFIED THAT
VERIFICATION IS COMPLETE. SPONSOR WILL NOT ACCEPT SCREEN SHOTS OR OTHER
EVIDENCE OF WINNING IN LIEU OF ITS VALIDATION PROCESS. ANY PLAY THAT OCCURS
AFTER THE SYSTEM HAS FAILED FOR ANY REASON IS DEEMED A DEFECTIVE PLAY AND IS
VOID AND WILL NOT BE HONORED. The submission of a prize claim is solely the
responsibility of the participant.

manner. Any attempt by any person to deliberately damage Sponsor's Website
(including the Game Website) or undermine the legitimate operation of this Game
may be a violation of criminal and civil laws 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. Sponsor's failure to
enforce any term of these Official Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that
provision.
10. Release. By

related companies, any company involved with the Game, and each of their
respective officers, directors, employees and agents from and against any claim
or cause of action arising out of participation in the Game or receipt or use

construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of these Rules, or
the rights and obligations of the entrant or Sponsor in connection with the
Game, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the
Commonwealth of Virginia, without giving effect to any choice of law or
conflict of law rules (whether of the Commonwealth of Virginia or any other

jurisdiction other than the Commonwealth of Virginia. Should any part of these
Rules be held invalid or unenforceable, that portion shall be construed in
