   4. Promotion commences on 27/10/2011 and closes at 5:00pm AEDST on 30/11/2011 (Promotional Period).
   5. To enter, individuals must, during the Promotional Period, download the 'PepsiMax – Top Mates' app (Application) to their web enabled mobile handset. Entrants must then, during the Promotional Period, using the Application, follow the prompts to the promotion entry page, input the requested details and submit the fully completed entry form.
   6. To enter, entrants must then, during the Promotional Period, accrue points by using the Application to 'check-in' with other registered Application users who are also the entrant's Facebook friends (mates). To 'check-in' with a mate, users must open the application on their web enabled mobile handset or visit the .Mobi site www.pepsimaxtopmates.com.au – then, users either literally bump handsets to check-in (for iPhone & Android users) or click the 'check-in' button (.Mobi site users). To do this, users can locate the list of connected mates appearing on the 'My Profile' screen of the Application. The entrant must then, via the Application or .Mobi site, click on the mate's animated 'Bump' icon to 'check-in'.
   7. 'Check-Ins' will be triggered through use of the 'Bump API'. Bump functionality will be automatically activated when the Application is open and suspended when the Application is closed. An animated 'Bump' icon will indicate when an entrant can 'bump' to 'check-in' with a mate. Entrants will only be able to 'check-in' with 'Facebook friends' included within their list of connected mates appearing on the 'My Profile' screen of the Application, and only when a mate's animated 'Bump' icon is present.
   8. The Promoter takes no responsibility should an entrant not have the software, hardware or mobile phone plan that would permit access to and use of the Application. To download the Application, the entrant, must during the Promotional Period, visit the App StoreSM, .mobi website, www.pepsimaxtopmates.com.au or Android market, search for the Application, and download the Application to their mobile phone in accordance with the directions. The Application is free to download. Standard carrier fees will apply to the download and use of the Application but there is no additional charge for the Application itself. Any cost associated with accessing the internet or downloading data on a mobile phone is the entrant's responsibility and is dependent on the internet service provider used
   9. The Promoter reserves the right, at any time, to verify the validity of entries, points and entrants (including an entrant's identity, age and place of residence) and to disqualify any entrant who submits an entry that is not in accordance with these Terms and Conditions or who tampers with the entry or point allocation process. Errors and omissions may be accepted at the Promoter's discretion. Failure by the Promoter to enforce any of its rights at any stage does not constitute a waiver of those rights.
  10. Incomplete, indecipherable or illegible registrations will be deemed invalid.
  11. Only one (1) registration permitted per entrant.
  12. This is a game of skill and chance plays no part in determining the winner. Each entrant will be individually judged based on the number of valid points the entrant has accrued during the Promotional Period. Points accrued are relevant to the major prize only – a $30,000 'Brocation' holiday voucher. The Promoter's decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into.
  13. An entrant cannot check-in on their own, they must check-in with at least one (1) other mate. There is no limit to the number of different mates an entrant can 'check-in' with, at any given time.
  14. Once an entrant has validly 'checked-in' with a mate, they cannot 'check-in' again with that mate and be awarded points with that mate for another two (2) hours. An entrant can 'check-in' with multiple mates in a given instance and will be awarded points for each valid 'check-in', in accordance with these Terms and Conditions.
  15. For each single valid 'check-in' with a mate, the entrant will accrue 25 points. For the avoidance of doubt, if an entrant validly 'checks-in' with a mate, both users will accrue points subject to these Terms and Conditions. Check-ins with non-registered Application users will 'fail' and the entrant will be promoted to connect with another valid mate. An entrant will not accrue any points for a 'failed' check-in.
  16. For the purposes of this promotion, an entrant can 'check-in' with a mate once every two (2) hours, and therefore a maximum of twelve (12) times per promotional day. Maximum points allocated per mate, via 'check-in', for each promotional day is therefore: 25 points x 12 = 300 points. Maximum points allocated per mate, via 'check-in', for each promotional week is therefore: 300 points x 7 = 2,100 points. Maximum points allocated per mate, via 'check-in', for the five (5) weeks of the promotion is therefore: 2,100 points x 5 = 10,500 points.
  17. The use of any automated entry software or any other mechanical or electronic means that allows an entrant to automatically enter or accrue points repeatedly, or manipulate point allocation, is prohibited and will render all entries submitted and/or points accrued by that entrant invalid. Progress is achieved by checking in with mates and thereby accumulating points. Each time an individual checks-in with a mate, they are awarded points. The more times they check in with a mate, the more points they accumulate. Once a user has checked-in with a mate, they will not be awarded points for checking in again until 2 hours has elapsed. Entrants can compare their status in relation to other mates and all registered users on the main leader board both within the mobile Application and on the Facebook Hub Micro site (www.pepsimaxtopmates.com.au/facebook/) . Entrants should not rely on information featured on the leader board to confirm if they are the winner. The leader board may not be a true reflection of the results. All points and entrants featured on a leader board are subject to verification by the Promoter.
  18. The entrant who validly accrues the most points at the end of the Entry Period will, after verification by the Promoter, be the major prize winner and will win a $30,000 'Brocation' holiday voucher. The winner will be notified in writing.
  19. Any ancillary costs associated with redeeming a holiday voucher are not included. Any unused balance of a holiday voucher will not be awarded as cash. Redemption of holiday voucher is subject to any terms and conditions of the issuer including those specified on the holiday voucher.
  20. The prize is subject to the standard terms and conditions of individual prize and service providers. If the winner of the prize is under the age of 18 years, the prize will be awarded to the winner's nominated parent or guardian on the winner's behalf.
  21. In the event of a tie to determine the winner, the tied entrants will be required to participate in a skill-based 'tie-breaker', to be determined by the Promoter in its sole discretion. The entrant judged as the winner, in accordance with the judging criteria of the 'tie-breaker', will, after verification by the Promoter, be the major prize winner. In the event an entrant does not participate in the 'tie-breaker' in the manner required, their entry will be deemed invalid.
  22. Total prize value is $30,000. The prize, or any unused portion of the prize, is not transferable or exchangeable and cannot be taken as cash, unless otherwise specified.
  23. If the prize is unavailable, the Promoter, in its discretion, reserves the right to substitute the prize with a prize to the equal value.
  24. Entrants consent to the Promoter using their name, likeness, image and/or voice in the event they are the winner (including photograph, film and/or recording of the same) in any media for an unlimited period without remuneration for the purpose of promoting this promotion (including any outcome), and promoting any products manufactured, distributed and/or supplied by the Promoter.
  25. If this promotion is interfered with in any way or is not capable of being conducted as reasonably anticipated due to any reason beyond the reasonable control of the Promoter, including but not limited to technical difficulties, unauthorised intervention or fraud, the Promoter reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law: (a) to disqualify any entrant; or (b) to modify, suspend, terminate or cancel the promotion, as appropriate.
  26. Any cost associated with accessing the promotional website is the entrant's responsibility and is dependent on the Internet service provider used.
