Contest Rules

The following rules are an addendum to the BRIGHT-FM Official Rules for the “Mother Lode Match Game” promotion. These rules govern the “Mother Lode Match Game” promotion (the “Promotion”) being conducted by BRIGHT-FM/WRBS (the “Sponsor”) from Monday, April 26th, 2021, at 7:15AM, DST, to Friday, May 7th, 2021, at 5:15PM, DST or as soon as all prizes have been matched.

NO PURCHASE OR PAYMENT OF ANY KIND IS NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. A PURCHASE OR PAYMENT WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCE OF WINNING.

1.WHO CAN ENTER

Entrants within the immediate Sponsor on-air listening area.

Contests are open only to legal U.S. residents age eighteen (18) years or older at the
time of entry.

Only one (1) prize per household within any thirty (30) day period.

Employees of the Sponsor, any parent company, affiliates, related entities and
subsidiaries, promotional sponsors, prize providers, advertising agencies, and
the immediate family members and household members of all such employees are
not eligible to participate. The term “immediate family members” includes
spouses, parents and step-parents, siblings and step-siblings, and children and
stepchildren. The term “household members” refers to people who share the same
residence at least three (3) months out of the year.

Entrants may not use an assumed name or alias. Contests are subject to all applicable
federal, state and local laws and regulations. Participation constitutes
entrant’s full and unconditional agreement to these Official Rules and
Sponsor’s decisions, which are final and binding in all matters related to the
Promotion. Winning a prize is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements set
forth herein.

2. CONTEST PERIOD

The Promotion will begin and end at the times specified by Sponsor. Sponsor’s
office computer is the official time keeping device for all Promotions.

3. HOW TO ENTER

Eligible contestants can enter by listening to BRIGHT-FM for the cue to call to be part of The Match Game. The cue to call will be played three times a day, Monday through Friday, during the appointed time period and ending as soon as the final match is made. The cue to call will be given between 7:00AM and 7:15AM, 12:00PM and 12:15PM, and 5:00PM and 5:15PM. When the cue to call is played, the 5th caller to call 866-304-9727 will be accepted to play The Mother Lode Match Game.

The caller must pick two numbers between 1 and 24 from the BRIGHT-FM Mother Lode Match Game Board. There will be a prize behind each number on the board. When the numbers are revealed and the prizes behind the number matches, the caller will win the prize specified on the matching pieces. If the prize behind the numbers does not match, their turn at playing the game ends. Caller may try and play again during contest period.

The times for the cue to call are approximate and may be changed. The station
reserves the right to increase or decrease the amount of times that the cue to
call is given.

4. TEXT MESSAGE AND TELEPHONE DISCLAIMER

Participants are restricted to the use of ordinary telephone equipment. Participants that
enable the “Caller ID” block function will not be allowed to participate unless
they enter their correct area code and telephone number. Sponsor disclaims all
liability for the inability of a participant to complete or continue a
telephone call due to equipment malfunction, busy lines, inadvertent disconnections,
acts beyond the Company’s control, or otherwise. Sponsor disclaims all
liability for any delays, misdelivery, loss, or failure in the delivery of any
item sent by mail, courier, express, electronic transmission, or other delivery
method. Sponsor is not responsible for mechanical, technical, electronic,
communications, telephone, computer, hardware or software malfunctions or
failures of any kind, including: failed, incomplete, garbled or delayed
transmission of online entries, traffic congestion on telephone lines, the
Internet or at any website or lost or unavailable network connections which may
limit an online entrant’s ability to participate in the contest, and any injury
or damage to entrant’s or any other person’s computer related to or resulting
from participating in or downloading any information necessary to participate
in this contest.

Due to the time delay that exists between the Sponsor’s over-the-air signal and any
online webcast, listeners who listen to the Sponsor online may hear Promotion
information later than listeners listening to the Sponsor’s over-the-air
signal. As a result, the odds of an online listener winning Promotion may be
diminished.

Sponsor shall not be responsible for lost, late, incomplete, invalid, unintelligible,
inappropriate or misdirected entries, all of which will be disqualified. In the
event of a dispute as to any entry, the authorized account holder of telephone
number used to enter will be deemed to be the participant. The “authorized
account holder” is the natural person assigned the telephone number by the
wireless carrier.

Potential winner may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holder.
All entries become the sole and exclusive property of Sponsor and will not be
returned. Sponsor reserves the right to contact entrants and all other
individuals whose telephone number is submitted as part of a Promotion.

substitute any listed prize for one of equal or greater value for any reason.
For prizes that involve travel, winner agrees to accept all blackout dates,
space availability limitations, etc., established by Sponsor’s prize
provider(s).

All prizes are non-transferable and no substitution will be made except as provided
at the Sponsor’s or prize provider’s sole discretion. If concerts or other
ticketed events have been awarded as a prize and the concert or event is
postponed, rained out, canceled, or does not occur for other reasons beyond Sponsor’s
control, Sponsor will not be responsible for replacing the prize. Winner agrees
that Sponsor is not responsible for lost, stolen, or misdirected mail, and that
the prize will not be replaced if it is not received by winner.

6. WINNER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION

POTENTIAL CONTEST WINNERS ARE SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION BY SPONSOR, WHOSE DECISIONS ARE FINAL AND BINDING IN ALL MATTERS RELATED TO THE CONTEST.

The potential winner must continue to comply with all terms and conditions of these Official Rules, and winning is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements. Odds of winning
depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the number of
eligible entries received by Sponsor during the Promotion and the number of
listeners participating at any given time.

The potential winner will be contacted using the email address provided with the
entry in approximately 3 business days and will be awarded the prize subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with the terms of these rules. If Sponsor cannot reach potential winner by email address provided due to an incorrect address provided, message failure, or any other reason that would prevent Sponsor from reaching potential
winner, a second attempt will be made using other contact methods provided. If
second attempt fails, Sponsor may, but is not required to, award the applicable
prize to an alternate winner by random drawing from among all remaining
eligible entries. Failure to respond to the initial verification contact within
3 days will result in disqualification.

Sponsor reserves the right to select and notify an alternate potential winner.

In the event that the potential winner of the Prize is disqualified for any
reason, Sponsor may, but is not required to, award the applicable prize to an
alternate winner by random drawing from among all remaining eligible entries,
or other means chosen by the Sponsor.

Sponsor’s decisions as to the administration and operation of the Promotion and the
selection of a potential winner are final and binding in all matters related to
the Promotion. Any protest in the conducting of the Promotion, the selection of
the winner, or the awarding of the Prize must be made within three days of the
conclusion of the contest; the resolution of any protest shall be in the sole
discretion of Sponsor, whose decision shall be considered final.

All prizes are non-transferable and void where prohibited by law. There will be no
substitution of prize.

worldwide, without further payment or consideration, unless otherwise

the Sponsor, and also may be recorded for use on-air at a later time. Winners
may be required to sign a separate publicity waiver and/or release upon
collecting a prize.

9. GENERAL CONDITIONS

Sponsor may cancel any Contest or any part of a Contest, if any fraud, technical
failures or any other factor beyond Sponsor’s reasonable control impairs the
integrity or proper functioning of the Contest, as determined by Sponsor in its
sole discretion. Sponsor reserves the right in its sole discretion to
disqualify any individual it finds to be tampering with the entry process or
the operation of the Contest or to be acting in violation of these Official
Rules or any other promotion or in an unsportsmanlike or disruptive manner, or
to be acting in violation of any federal, state or local law. Any attempt by
any person to deliberately undermine the legitimate operation of a Contest may
be a violation of criminal and civil law, and, should such an attempt be made,
Sponsor reserves the right to seek legal remedies including damages from any
such person to the fullest extent permitted by law. Sponsor may, in its sole
discretion, waive or change any of these Official Rules in a particular case,
but will advise the public of such waiver or changes as soon as practicably
possible after they are made.

10. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

The Released Parties are not responsible for: (1) any incorrect or inaccurate
information, whether caused by entrants, printing errors or by any of the
equipment or programming associated with or utilized in the Contest; (2)
technical failures of any kind, including but not limited to malfunctions,
interruptions, or disconnections in phone lines or network hardware or
software; (3) unauthorized human intervention in any part of the entry process
or the Contest; (4) technical or human error which may occur in the
administration of the Contest or the processing of entries; or (5) any injury
or damage to persons or property which may be caused, directly or indirectly,
in whole or in part, from entrant’s participation in the Contest or receipt or
use, non-use or misuse of any prize. If for any reason an entrant’s entry is
confirmed to have been erroneously deleted, lost, or otherwise destroyed or
corrupted, entrant’s sole remedy is another entry in the Contest, provided that
if it is not possible to award another entry due to discontinuance or
completion of the Contest, or any part of it, for any reason, Sponsor, at its
discretion, may elect to hold a random drawing from among all eligible entries
received up to the date of discontinuance for any or all of the prizes offered
herein. No more than the stated number of prizes will be awarded. In the event
that production, technical, programming, or any other reason causes more than
stated number of prizes as set forth in these Official Rules to be available or
claimed, Sponsor reserves the right to award only the stated number of prizes
by a random drawing among all legitimate, unawarded, eligible prize claims.

11. DISPUTES

Entrant agrees that: (i) any and all disputes, claims and causes of action arising out

rights to claim punitive, incidental and consequential damages and any other
damages, other than for actual out-of-pocket expenses, and any and all rights
to have damages multiplied or otherwise increased. All issues and questions
concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of
these Official Rules, or the rights and obligations of entrant and Sponsor in
connection with the Contest, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance
with, the laws of the state of Maryland, without giving effect to any choice of
law or conflict of law rules which would cause the application of the laws of
any jurisdiction other than Maryland.
