Prize Restrictions and Requirements.

Limit one (1) prize per person/household. Prizes are non-transferable and no substitution or cash equivalent will be made except in Sponsor’s sole discretion. Sponsor will not replace any lost or stolen prizes. Sponsor reserves the right to substitute a prize for one of equal or greater value if the designated prize should become unavailable for any reason. The value associated with each prize is taxable as income and each winner is solely responsible for any taxes, including, but not limited to all applicable federal, state and local taxes that become due with respect to the value of each prize. The Sponsor must report the value of each prize to the Internal Revenue Service in the year a prize is received by the winner and will be reported to the winner and the Internal Revenue Service in the form of a Form 1099. Each winner is also responsible for any fees associated with their prize receipt and/or use, and any other costs or expenses not expressly listed in these Rules. Prizes must be redeemed within the period of notification of winning as set forth below. Blackout dates may apply.

Winner Selection and Odds

The potential winners will be selected in a random drawing from among all eligible entries received during the Sweepstakes Period. Once an entry is drawn as a winning entry, that entry will no longer be eligible for future drawings, including if the owner of the entry is unable to claim the prize for whatever reason. Entries that are not drawn will be eligible for future drawings. 

Drawings will be conducted by Sponsor or a Sweepstakes Entity (if applicable) or either of their designated representatives, whose decisions are final. Each prize will be drawn for no later than ten (10) business days after the conclusion of each conference for which that prize is drawn for, except for the last prize, which will be drawn on December 31 after the end of the Sweepstakes Period. Potential winners do not need to be present at any respective conference to win. Odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received for the Sweepstakes. Purchases or the use of Rho’s products will not increase the odds of winning for a person. To be eligible to receive a prize, all entrants must provide a valid mailing address and email address when prompted at the time of entry. In the event that an entrant has submitted an incomplete, incorrect, or otherwise invalid mailing address or email address, the entrant will be disqualified, and an alternate prize winner will be selected.

The potential winner must respond within ten (10) business days of the notification date and will be required to complete and return an Affidavit of Eligibility, Release of Liability, Publicity Release (where lawful), and IRS Form W-9. If a potential winner cannot be contacted, fails to sign and return the required documents within the required time period, does not comply with these Rules, or prize is returned as undeliverable, the potential winner forfeits the prize. If a potential winner is disqualified for any reason, the prize may be awarded to a runner-up, if any, at Sponsor's sole discretion.
