The Resort Accommodations Certificate has an approximate value of up to US$4,100.00 (the “Prize”).

No cash equivalent and the Prize is nontransferable and no substitution will be made except as provided in these Rules at the Sponsor’s sole discretion. Actual Prize value may vary from the approximate value. If the actual value of the Prize is less than the stated approximate value, the difference will not be awarded in cash, and no such claim will be honored. Prize is not transferable and cannot be substituted or redeemed for cash; however, Sponsor, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to substitute the Prize for one of equal or greater value if the designated prize should become unavailable for any reason. Winners are responsible for all taxes and fees associated with prize receipt and/or use.
The value of the Prize will be included as income to each winner and reported on the winner’s W-2 form.
If the winner is not a resident of the United States, Sponsor will gross up the Prize value for any prize with a fair market value of US$600 or more in an amount to satisfy the 30% withholding requirement and the withholding amount will be submitted to the U.S. taxing authority IRS (the United States tax agency) as required by law and winner will receive a U.S. tax form 1042 from the Administrator reflecting the total value of the prize, including the gross up amount and the withholding amount submitted to the IRS will be noted separately. This gross up amount will not otherwise be included as part of the Prize.
Each winner is solely responsible for all applicable national, federal, state, or other tax obligations related to receipt and use of the prize won and should seek guidance from the winner’s tax advisor.
