6. EMAIL NOTIFICATION TO THE POTENTIAL WINNER OF THE PRIZE, THE DECLARATION AND RELEASE FORM, THE SKILL-TESTING QUESTION, PRIZE FORFEITURE AND OTHER MATTERS:

The Sponsor will send an email (a "notification email") to the eligible person who, as a result of the Sweepstakes draw, is the potential winner of the Prize in the Contest. The notification email will be sent to the email address which the potential winner furnished at the time he/she submitted the applicable Entry Form which led to him/her becoming a potential winner.

The Sponsor is not responsible if, for any reason, a potential winner does not receive the notification email to which the declaration and release is attached (see below).

The notification email will inform a potential winner that he/she is the potential winner of the Prize in the Contest, will identify the applicable Prize, will either provide a link to, or provide as an attachment, a declaration and release (the "declaration and release"), and will specify the date by which the Sponsor must receive back from the potential winner his/her properly completed and signed declaration and release. The declaration and release will contain the skill-testing question, will contain a declaration by the potential winner that he/she is an eligible person, has complied in full with and will continue to comply in full with the provisions of these Official Rules and accepts the Prize as awarded to him/her, and will contain an indemnity, a liability release and a publicity release.

A potential winner must print out the declaration and release. Note: If a potential winner cannot print out the declaration and release, he/she should call the Sponsor at 1-844-463-6760 and request that the Sponsor mail a copy of the declaration and release to the potential winner. Once the potential winner has a printed copy of the declaration and release, he/she must fill his/her correct answer to the skill-testing question in the space provided for that purpose in the declaration and release, and must complete in full the declaration and release in the manner which will be specified in the notification email and on the declaration and release. The potential winner then must return, by mail to the Sponsor at the address set out in the notification email, the duly completed and signed original declaration and release, containing the potential winner's correct answer to the skill-testing question, for receipt by the Sponsor no later than the date specified in the notification email.

The Sponsor strongly recommends that, when sending the completed, original Declaration and Release as directed by the Sponsor, a potential winner use Canadian registered mail and obtain postal insurance. The Sponsor further recommends that before a potential winner mails a completed Declaration and Release to the Sponsor, he/she first make a copy of the completed Declaration and Release to keep for his/her records.

Provided a potential winner submits his/her duly completed and signed declaration and release, and provided that declaration and release is received by the Sponsor in accordance with these Official Rules, and provided the potential winner answers correctly the skill-testing question, subject to the provisions of these Official Rules, the Sponsor then will proceed to review the declaration and release to confirm that it accords with the requirements of the Official Rules.

Prize Forfeiture: If a potential winner fails to submit an answer to the skill-testing question, or submits an incorrect answer to that question, or fails to comply in full and in any way or manner with any provision or provisions of or limitation contained in these Official Rules including, without limitation, the eligibility requirements or the Entry limits prescribed in Rules 4 and 6 of these Official Rules, or fails to meet the requirements related to completion, execution and submission of his/her declaration and release (see above), that potential winner forfeits any right to receive the Prize to which he/she may otherwise be or have become entitled, is deemed to have waived any claim to the Prize without further notice, and the Prize is forfeited. If the Sponsor attempts to deliver, or to effect delivery of, the Prize to a winner and the Prize is returned to the Sponsor as undeliverable or the Prize winner declines or fails to take delivery of the Prize, then the winner of the Prize forfeits the Prize, the winner will have no further claim against the Sponsor in respect to the Prize or the Contest, and the Prize will not be awarded in the Contest.

If, for any of the reasons specified in the preceding paragraph of this Rule 6, the potential winner of the Prize forfeits the Prize, the Sponsor will select a backup Entry and will send a notification email to the eligible person who submitted the backup Entry, who will follow the same process specified in this Rule 6, which is applicable to notification of the potential winner of the Prize. The eligible person who submitted that backup Entry will have the same obligations as apply to the potential winner of the Prize. If and as necessary, the Sponsor will continue the process of attempting to verify an eligible person as the winner of the Prize by dealing, in order, with each eligible person who submitted a backup Entry until the Prize winner is verified, or until there are no more backup Entries remaining. In the latter case, the Prize will not be awarded in the Contest and no eligible person who was a potential winner of the Prize, and no other person, will have any claim against the Sponsor in respect to the Prize or the Contest.


ENTRY AND PRIZE LIMITS: There is a limit of one (1) Entry recorded after an Entry Form is submitted per eligible person in any seven (7) day period during the Contest Period and a limit of four (4) Entries recorded after an Entry Form is submitted per eligible person during the Contest Period. In addition, no eligible person is permitted in any way or manner to use more than one (1) email account to enter the Contest. If the Sponsor finds that any person has failed to observe and comply in full with these limits, irrespective of the reason for or cause of such non-observance or non-compliance, then a) all Entries which that person has submitted into the Contest will be null and void, b) that person will be disqualified from submitting any further Entries into the Contest and will be disqualified from receiving the Prize to which he/she might otherwise have been entitled, c) that person will be disqualified from the Contest, and d) if that person has been declared a winner, that person will be obliged to return the Prize he/she has received, or its cash equivalent, to the Sponsor forthwith.

7. PRIZE:

There are twelve (12) Prizes available to be won in the Contest. One (1) Prize will be awarded each month during the Contest Period. Each Prize consists of a $250 CDN in Première Moisson gift cards, in denominations to be determined by the Sponsor (a "Gift Card") ARV $250 CDN. Gift Cards will be activated before being delivered to a winner.

13. If the Sponsor in its sole discretion so elects, a potential winner may be required to submit to, and by entering the Contest agrees to fully cooperate in, a background check to confirm eligibility and to help ensure that the use of any such person in advertising or publicity for the Contest will not bring the Sponsor into public disrepute, contempt, scandal or ridicule, or reflect unfavourably on the Contest or the Sponsor as determined by the Sponsor in its sole discretion.

14. If a winner makes any false statement in any document related to the Contest, the winner will be required to promptly return the Prize (or, at the Sponsor's option, the cash equivalent of the Prize based on the ARV as stated in these Official Rules) to the Sponsor upon demand and at the winner's sole expense.

15. A potential winner or a winner may not transfer the applicable Prize to any other person prior to the actual delivery to him/her of the Prize unless authorized in writing by the Sponsor before the transfer is made.
