The Trip Prizewinner, designee(s), or guest(s) must have a valid credit card or shall be required to post cash deposit for incidentals to check into the hotel.  The Trip Prizewinner is solely responsible for the actions of the guests who accompany the Trip Prizewinner on the Trip Prize.  If any of the Trip Prizewinner’s guests is a minor, the Trip Prizewinner must (a) be the parent or legal guardian of such guest, or (b) must present a notarized, written consent from the minor’s parent or legal guardian for the minor guest to accompany the Trip Prizewinner on the Trip Prize.   at the time that a Trip Prizewinner claims the Trip Prize, such Trip Prizewinner shall be deemed to have taken ownership of the entire Trip Prize, and the full claimed value of the entire Trip Prize (including the value of the travel portion) shall be reported to the IRS.  Accordingly, the Trip Prizewinner may be responsible for any additional state or federal taxes resulting from the claimed Trip Prize, above and beyond those taxes withheld, reported and paid on the Trip Prizewinner’s behalf by MDI to the appropriate agencies.

If the Trip Prizewinner fails to check in to the participating hotel when he or she arrives in Los Angeles, MDI will use reasonable efforts to hold the reservation at the participating hotel.  It is the Trip Prizewinner’s responsibility to communicate with MDI if there is going to be a delay in their hotel registration and/or required Contest event registration.  If a Trip Prizewinner has communicated the delay with MDI, MDI and the participating hotel will hold the hotel room at the participating hotel on behalf of the Trip Prizewinner. If the Trip Prizewinner fails to check in to the participating hotel when he or she arrives in Los Angeles and does not (a) communicate with MDI regarding the delay in hotel registration and/or event registration or (b) register with MDI for the required Contest event registration check in with MDI, and MDI cannot contact the Trip Prizewinner, then the participating hotel room will be cancelled, and the balance of the trip portion of the Trip Prize shall be forfeited, including but not limited to the participating hotel room, airport ground transportation, Contest participation, and any and all other non-contracted portions of the prize provided to the Trip Prizewinner on behalf of MDI, with the exception of the five  thousand dollars ($500) cash portion of the Trip Prize and the return airfare, less any tax withholdings; however, the LOTTERY or MDI will appoint a proxy to participate in the Contest for the Trip Prizewinner, and the Trip Prizewinner shall receive any prizes won by the proxy; (less applicable tax withholdings).

The Trip Prizewinner (or a proxy assigned by the Trip Prizewinner) must be 18 years of age to be eligible to participate in the Contest.  A Trip Prizewinner may pre-designate a proxy to participate in the Contest on his or her behalf.  The Trip Prizewinner shall receive any cash prize(s) won by the proxy in the Contest (less applicable tax withholdings).  In the event that the Trip Prizewinner does not designate a proxy, and a proxy is necessary for Trip Prizewinner to participate in the Contest on his or her behalf, for any reason whatsoever, MDI or Sponsor will appoint a proxy to participate in the Contest on his or her behalf.  The Trip Prizewinner acknowledges that the proxy appointed by MDI or Sponsor will have to make decisions on behalf of the Trip Prizewinner and therefore, the Trip Prizewinner delegates the power, authority or discretion to the proxy appointed by MDI or Sponsor to make any such decisions on the Trip Prizewinner’s behalf.  The Trip Prizewinner shall receive any cash prize(s) won in the Contest by MDI or Sponsor appointed proxy (less applicable tax withholdings).  A Prizewinner may not choose to receive the cash equivalent of the trip portion of the Trip Prize.  Upon a Trip Prizewinner being validated by the Illinois Lottery, title to the Trip Prize shall immediately pass to the Trip Prizewinner upon claim or acceptance.  If a Trip Prize is not claimed or is refused by a Trip Prizewinner, the Sponsor must assign the Trip Prize to an alternate Trip Prizewinner, and MDI shall fulfill that Trip Prize under the same terms and conditions as specified herein, provided that such prize is still available and time requirements have not elapsed.  MDI may substitute a prize of equal or better quality upon the written approval of the Sponsor.  The Sponsor acknowledges and agrees that each Trip Prizewinner and their guests are subject to a background investigation prior to the Trip Prize.
