entry. Without limiting the generality, the Promoter reserves the right to take legal action against anyone
found to have breached this term. The Promoter reserves the right in its sole discretion to disqualify any
individual who the Promoter has reason to believe has breached any of these conditions, or engaged in
any unlawful or other improper misconduct calculated to jeopardise the fair and proper conduct of the
promotion. The Promoter’s legal rights to recover damages or other compensation are reserved.
40. If the prize is unavailable, for whatever reason, the Promoter reserves the right to substitute the prize for

prize and prize supplier’s requirements. Each prize must be taken as stated and no compensation will be
payable if the finalists, major winner and reader vote winners are unable to use the prize as stated.
41. The Promoter highly recommends a current residential street address be provided when requested for
ease of correspondence and potential prize delivery. The Promoter makes all reasonable efforts to deliver
prizes to the addresses provided by competition entrants. The Promoter cannot guarantee that any prizes
