(9) $1,000,000 and $4,000,000 Prize Payment Options.
(a) A winner of a $1,000,000 or $4,000,000 prize may choose one of two payment options for receiving his or her prize. Payment options are “Cash Option” or “Annual Payment.” At the time the $1,000,000 or $4,000,000 prize is claimed, the terminal will produce a top prize player claim instructions ticket. The winner has sixty (60) days from the date the player claim instructions ticket is produced to file a claim choosing the Cash Option. If a winner does not choose the Cash Option within such time, the Annual Payment option will be applied. Once the winner files a claim and exercises the winner’s chosen option, the election of that option shall be final.
(b) Cash Option prizes will be paid in a single cash payment equal to the amount of cash required to purchase U.S. Government Securities that would fund the applicable prize amount of $1,000,000 or $4,000,000 payable over a twenty year period, less applicable federal withholding taxes. This figure will be determined during the week following the date on which the $1,000,000 or $4,000,000 prize is claimed by obtaining quotes from at least two investment sources. The quote costing the least to fund the twenty year payment stream, had the annual payment option been selected, will be the amount of the Cash Option prize.
(c) Annual Payment prizes claimed by an individual will be paid in equal annual installments of $50,000 for the $1,000,000 prize and $200,000 for the $4,000,000 prize for the life of the winner, with a minimum of twenty annual payments, less applicable federal withholding taxes. Annual Payment prizes claimed by a trust, corporation or other legal entity shall consist of twenty annual payments of $50,000 or $200,000 each as applicable, less applicable federal withholding taxes.
(d) Any interest or earnings accruing on a $1,000,000 or $4,000,000 a year for life prize prior to the prize payment or purchase of securities, under either the Cash Option or the Annual Payment Option, shall accrue to the State of Florida and not to the winner.
