4. DESCRIPTION OF PRIZE
There will be one (1) Grand Prize awarded as a COLD-FX Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games Gold Medal Hockey vacation package for two (2) adult persons to the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games in British Columbia, Canada (the “Games”). The approximate retail value of the Grand Prize is seven thousand five hundred Canadian dollars ($7,500).
1) The Grand Prize consists of a four (4) day/three (3) night stay at a Vancouver area hotel and two tickets to the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games Gold Medal Hockey. Details on the hotel, tickets and other Grand Prize package facts will be emailed to the winner as they become available.
2) The Grand Prize also includes: a. A sum of three thousand Canadian dollars ($3,000) that can be used by the Grand Prize winner to pay for transportation into and out of Vancouver for the scheduled COLD-FX Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games Gold Medal Hockey package dates and times. The Grand Prize winner is responsible for arranging his/her own transportation and that of his/her guest (sometimes collectively, the “Grand Prize Participants”) into and out of Vancouver. It is strongly recommended that the Grand Prize Participants book their in-bound and out-bound transportation as soon as scheduled dates and times for the COLD-FX Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games Gold Medal Hockey package are known, due to expected high travel demand throughout the duration of the Games. If travel expenses are less than three thousand dollars ($3,000) for the Grand Prize Participants, the Grand Prize winner may keep any remainder. If travel expenses exceed three thousand dollars ($3,000) for the Prize Participants, the excess costs will have to be covered by the Grand Prize winner. In no event will the Contest Sponsor be responsible for these excess costs;
3) The Grand Prize must be accepted as awarded by the Contest Sponsor. Except for the cash component of the Grand Prize, no cash alternatives, substitutions, divisions, or transfers of the Grand Prize will be allowed, and the Grand Prize winner shall not be entitled to convert the Grand Prize into cash. The Contest Sponsor reserves the right to substitute the Grand Prize with a prize of equal value or greater value.
4) Once a registration has been completed, no changes are permitted.
