  1. What is the prize?

    • The prize relates to winning a sum equal to the cost of the current year of your Eligible Policy only and does not apply in the case of any subsequent renewals.
    • Incidental expenses and all other costs and expenses which are not specifically listed as part of the prize in these Official Rules and which may be associated with the award, acceptance, receipt and use of all or any portion of the awarded prize are solely the responsibility of the respective prize winner.
