The eighteen retailer drawings, determined by district and retailer category (corporate or independent), will be conducted by the Florida Lottery using a certified random number generation process. The number of entries drawn and prizes awarded will be in accordance with the following table:

Lottery Sales District	Prize Per Retailer	Number of Corporate Retailer Prizes	Number of Independent Retailer Prizes
District 1 ‒ Tallahassee	$4,000	2	2
District 3 ‒ Pensacola	$4,000	2	2

A total of 52 $4,000 prizes will be awarded in the Promotion.

An individual retailer location may only win one prize per drawing. Alternate entries will be drawn in each drawing. The number of alternate entries drawn will be twice the number of prizes to be awarded in that drawing. Alternate entries will be used as needed in the order in which they are drawn to award a prize in the event a retailer’s entry is disqualified. Retailers will be subject to disqualification if the Florida Lottery determines that the return of one or more of the qualifying books of tickets invalidates the entry or if the retailer is not in good financial standing with the Florida Lottery or is not in an “active” retailer status at the time of prize payment.

(4) Winning retailers will receive their Promotion prize check within approximately thirty days of the drawing.

(5) If a retailer is unable to timely activate the required book(s) due to untimely delivery of inventory, the Florida Lottery, in its sole discretion, may allow a retailer to be entered into the applicable retailer drawing provided;

(a) The retailer submits a written request for inclusion in the drawing for receipt by the Florida Lottery by 5:00 p.m. (ET) on July 12, 2016; and,

(b) The retailer’s request demonstrates to the Florida Lottery’s satisfaction that failure of the retailer to timely activate the required book(s) was due to untimely delivery of inventory, through no fault of the retailer.

The Florida Lottery’s determination regarding the retailer’s request shall be final.

(6) A promotional prize will be considered compensation to the retailer for Internal Revenue Service purposes.
