PROMOTION DESCRIPTION: The Buick's Tee-Off With Tiger Promotion ("Promotion") is a game where participants are asked to predict Tiger Woods' score on each hole of each round of each tournament of the 2008 PGA Tour in which he participates during the Promotion Period. For the purpose of this promotion, each tournament will consist of a maximum of seventy-two (72) holes [four (4) rounds each consisting of a maximum of eighteen (18) holes]. Registration for the Promotion begins at 12:00 AM Eastern Time ("ET") on 3/10/08 and the Promotion runs through 11:59 PM ET on 9/27/08 ("Promotion Period").
ELIGIBILITY: The Promotion is open only to legal residents of the 50 United States and District of Columbia ("U.S.") who are 18 years of age or older or of the age of majority in their state of residence, whichever is older, with a valid driver's license as of date of entry ("Entrant"). Employees, directors and officers and their immediate families (spouses and siblings, parents and children and their spouses) and household members of General Motors Corporation ("Sponsor), Tiger Woods entities, IMG, the PGA Tour and their respective parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, dealerships, advertising and promotion agencies, including Digitas LLC., Exposure Marketing, Inc. and companies involved in the implementation and execution of the Promotion (collectively the "Promotion Entities") are not eligible. Promotion is void in Puerto Rico, and other US Territories and jurisdictions (including overseas military installations) and where prohibited.
SPONSOR: General Motors Corporation, 100 Renaissance Center, Detroit, MI 48265.
ADMINISTRATOR: Exposure Marketing, Inc., 1000 North Opdyke Rd, Auburn Hills, MI 48326.
AGREEMENT TO THE OFFICIAL RULES: By participating in the Promotion, each Entrant fully and unconditionally agrees to and accepts these Official Rules and the decisions of the Sponsor and the Administrator, which are final and binding in all matters related to the Promotion. Winning a prize is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements set forth herein.
HOW TO REGISTER: To register for the Promotion, visit www.teeoffwithtiger.com (the "Website") during the Promotion Period, complete the online entry form with the required contact information, including selection of a "email address" and "password" ("Entry") and follow the instructions to submit as directed. Entrants must complete the registration process before participating in the Promotion or being eligible to win a prize. LIMIT: ONE (1) REGISTRATION PER PERSON OR EMAIL ADDRESS. In the event of a dispute, registrations will be deemed made by the authorized account holder of the email address submitted at the time of registration. The authorized account holder is the natural person who is assigned to the email address by an internet access provider, online service provider, or other organization that is responsible for assigning email addresses or the domain associated with the submitted email address. Any potential winner may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holder. Administrator will not accept submissions from wireless domains, blacklist domains, or any email address Administrator deems to be potentially harmful to the Website. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. In the event of a dispute, entry will be deemed made by the authorized account holder of the email address submitted at the time of entry.
HOW IT WORKS: Once a registered user has logged into the site, they will need to click on "Tee Off" in order to make their predictions. Predictions for each round of a tournament must be submitted by 11:59PM ET on the day prior to the start of that round (e.g. the deadline for submitting predictions for a Sunday final round would be 11:59PM ET on Saturday). Scorecards will only be available for the next/current tournament, and only for those rounds of that tournament for which the entry deadline has not passed. The user must enter score predictions for each of eighteen (18) holes for any round in order for that round to be valid. Incomplete rounds will not be accepted. Auto-Fill Option: If the user chooses not to "predict" the scores for a specific round, an "auto-fill" option will be available on the scorecard. By clicking on this feature, random, computer-generated scores (each ranging from 1-under par to 1-over par) will be assigned to each hole for that round.
* Tournaments: The Promotion will be open for each 2008 PGA Tour tournament in which Tiger Woods plays during the Promotion Period and which is posted on the Website ("Posted Tournament"). Tournaments will be added to the website no later than five (5) days prior to the start of that tournament. The period from 12:00AM ET on the day that a tournament is posted on the website through 11:59PM ET on the final day of that tournament is referred to as a "Tournament Period". The maximum number of holes for any round throughout the Promotion is eighteen (18). The maximum number of rounds for any tournament throughout the Promotion is four (4). If Tiger Woods misses the cut for any round of any tournament or is forced to withdraw (for any reason, including but not limited to injury, illness or other personal conflict) from any tournament, the remaining rounds of that tournament will not be included in the Promotion scoring.
* Scoring: For each hole that Tiger Woods plays in a tournament during the Promotion, his actual score will be compared to each participant's predicted score for that hole. Each correct prediction will earn a participant one additional (1) point for that round. Incorrect predictions will result in zero (0) additional points for that round. The participant's score from each round of a tournament will be added together to determine that participant's cumulative score for that tournament. The maximum number of points any participant can earn for one (1) round is eighteen (18). The maximum number of points any participant can earn for one (1) tournament is seventy-two (72). Within two (2) hours of the conclusion of each round of each tournament, scores of each registered participant will be tabulated and posted on the website. The official PGA scores will be used for point determinations.
PRIZE WINNER DETERMINATION: Grand Prize – At the conclusion of each tournament, the registered participants with the top ten (10) cumulative scores (as defined in "Scoring" above) for that tournament will be considered "Finalists" and will each receive one (1) entry into the Grand Prize Drawing. In the event of a tie between any cumulative tournament scores resulting in more than ten (10) Finalists, the actual overall score posted by Tiger Woods for that tournament will be compared to the predicted score by those participants involved in the tie, placing the more accurate predictions as Finalists. If a tie still exists after comparing tournament scores (predictions vs. actual), individual round scores will be similarly compared starting with the final round of that tournament and working backwards. If a tie still exists, the winner from among all participants involved in the tie will be determined by which participant saved his/her final round predictions first. The one (1) Grand Prize winner will be selected in a random drawing conducted on or about 9/30/08 from among all Finalists. The odds of a Finalist being selected as the Grand Prize winner is determined by the final number of Finalists – based on ten (10) being selected from each 2008 tournament in which Tiger Woods participated. First Prizes - At the conclusion of each tournament, the participant who achieves the top cumulative score for that tournament (as defined in "Scoring" above) will be determined to be the potential First Prize winner for that tournament. In the event of a tie between any cumulative tournament scores resulting in more than one (1) winner, the actual overall score posted by Tiger Woods for that tournament will be compared to the predicted score by those participants involved in the tie, with the participant with the closest predicted score being determined as the potential First Prize winner. If a tie still exists after comparing tournament scores (predictions vs. actual), individual round scores will be similarly compared starting with the final round of that tournament and working backwards. If a tie still exists, the First Prize Winner from among all participants involved in the tie will be determined by which participant saved his/her final round predictions for that tournament first. LIMIT: ONE (1) FIRST PRIZE PER PERSON OR HOUSEHOLD. Random drawings and winner determination conducted by Exposure marketing & Promotion, an independent judging organization.
GRAND AND FIRST PRIZE WINNER NOTIFICATION AND VERIFICATION: Potential winners will be contacted by the Administrator by telephone and email and will be required to complete and return an Affidavit of Eligibility and Liability Release and except where prohibited by law, a Publicity Release Form ("Affidavit/Release") within seven days of receipt. Failure to timely return any required executed documents may cause prize to be forfeited and awarded to an alternate as solely determined by Administrator. If prize is refused, a prize notification is returned or deemed undeliverable, or potential winner is disqualified for any reason, an alternate winner will be selected. Except where prohibited by law, acceptance of a prize constitutes permission for Sponsor to use winner's name, hometown, likeness, statements and other personally identifiable information for promotional, advertising and marketing purposes in any media throughout the world without additional prize, incentive, consideration, consent or review; and upon request, winner will provide written consent to such use.
HOW TO PLAY THE INSTANT WIN GAME: Entrants who successfully complete the online registration process as defined above will automatically be eligible to play the Instant Win Game. Entrants must follow the online instructions to participate in the Instant Win Game and determine if they are an Instant Winner. During the Promotion Period, the number of random, computer-generated winning times equaling the total number of Instant Win Game prizes listed below will be created and distributed. Entrants who are the first to interact with various areas within the Website at or after one of the randomly generated times will be notified on-screen that they are a potential winner of an Instant Win Prize subject to verification and will automatically receive a notification message at the email address used to register. Each time a registered participant enters the website, he/she will be eligible to play the Instant Win game. There is no limit to the number of Instant Win Game plays per participant per tournament, however only one (1) Instant Win prize per registered participant per tournament will be allowed. Potential Instant Winners will receive a notification message at the email address used to register. POTENTIAL INSTANT WIN GAME WINNERS ARE SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION BY THE SPONSOR. AN ENTRANT IS NOT A WINNER OF ANY PRIZE, EVEN IF THE INSTANT WIN GAME SHOULD SO INDICATE, UNLESS AND UNTIL ENTRANT'S ELIGIBILITY HAS BEEN VERIFIED AND ENTRANT HAS BEEN NOTIFIED THAT VERIFICATION IS COMPLETE. PRINTOUTS, SCREEN SHOTS OR OTHER EVIDENCE OF WINNING WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED BY SPONSOR IN LIEU OF ITS VALIDATION PROCESS. Odds of winning an instant win prize depend upon number of eligible Instant Win plays divided by the number of prizes then available. If through programming or production errors, more prizes are awarded than those prize quantities offered in these rules, no more than the actual number of prizes per these rules will be awarded. Should such a situation occur, winners will be determined in a random drawing from among all eligible and verified winning prize claims that were submitted for the Promotion Period. Any attempt by any participant to obtain more than the stated number of plays/entries by using multiple/different email addresses, identities, registrations and logins, or any other methods will void that participant's plays/entries and that participant may be disqualified.
PRIZES: The following prizes will be awarded, listed with the approximate retail value (ARV):
