BY PARTICIPATING, YOU AGREE TO THESE OFFICIAL RULES, WHICH ARE A CONTRACT. 1. Sponsor. Ronald McDonald House Charities of Kentuckiana (RMHCK) is the sponsor of The “Pappy Flight” Raffle (the “Raffle”). RMHCK is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. The purpose of the Raffle is to raise funds for the operation of the Ronald McDonald House in Louisville, KY and for the related activities of RMHCK. 2. Raffle Overview. The Raffle begins on August 5, 2024, and ends on October 2, 2024, or when tickets are sold-out, whichever occurs first. 3. Eligibility. Any person 21 years of age or older, residing where the Raffle is not prohibited, may purchase a ticket (“Ticket”) to be entered in the Raffle (such person shall be herein known as the “Ticket Holder”). An affidavit of eligibility may be required from Ticket Holders who win a prize. RMHCK staff members and their immediate family members (in this instance known as spouses and children) are prohibited from purchasing Tickets. 4. Rules. By purchasing a Ticket, each Ticket Holder accepts and agrees to be bound by all the rules, limitations, conditions, and restrictions set forth herein (the “Rules”), as well as all applicable local, state, and federal laws and regulations. RMHCK’s decisions in all matters concerning the Raffle and its interpretation and application of the Rules shall be final. Please contact RMHCK if you have questions regarding the Rules or the Raffle. The Raffle is void where prohibited by law. 5. Releases. By purchasing a Ticket, each Ticket Holder releases RMHCK, its directors, officers, employees, and agents, from any and all liability with respect to the raffle, including, but not limited to, the selection process and the interpretation and application of the Rules, and from any and all liability for injuries, losses, or damages of any kind caused by any prize or resulting from acceptance, possession, use, or misuse of any prize, and each Ticket Holder agrees to indemnify and hold RMHCK harmless from any and all losses, damages, rights, claims, and actions of any kind arising in connection with or as a result of the winner’s acceptance or use of any prize. Each Ticket Holder agrees that their name, likeness, and any statements made by them regarding the prize may be disclosed to, and used by, the news media and may otherwise be used by RMHCK for advertising or publicity purposes without compensation, and in lists of prize winners to be published in area newspapers and other media. 6. Tickets. The cost to purchase a Ticket for the Raffle is $100.00 (U.S. Funds only). A maximum of 1,984 Tickets will be sold. Each Ticket has one number. Any eligible person may purchase more than one Ticket. Odds of winning depend on the number of valid Tickets sold. Tickets will not be sold after 10:00 a.m. EDT on October 2, 2024. Any unsold tickets become the property of RMHCK and will not be included in the drawing. The IRS has taken the position that amounts paid for chances in raffles, lotteries, or similar drawings for valuable prizes are not gifts, and consequently do not qualify as deductible charitable contributions. A Ticket is not valid and shall not be entered in the Raffle until full and satisfactory payment for such Ticket is received by RMHCK. Tickets are not transferable once purchased.

7. Failure of Payment. If a Ticket Holder’s payment by credit card is declined or check is dishonored by the bank for any reason, such Ticket Holder’s Ticket shall be invalid and will not be entered in the drawing, unless full and satisfactory payment is made by 10:00 a.m. EDT on October 2, 2024. RMHCK will endeavor to notify the invalidated Ticket Holder by phone at the number provided on the ticket purchasing website; however, any failure to do so shall not cause the Ticket to become valid, cause the Ticket to be entered in the Raffle, or give rise to any claim or cause of action on behalf of the invalidated Ticket Holder. 8. Multiple-Party Tickets. In the event that more than one name is listed on a Ticket, the first name listed shall be deemed to be the Ticket Holder. Delivery or payment of the prize shall be made to the Ticket Holder. It is the responsibility of the Ticket Holder to allocate any such prize among the participants in a multiple-party Ticket and RMHCK, its directors, officers, employees, and agents, shall have no liability for any failure to do so. 9. Raffle Drawing. The Raffle Drawing will take place on October 2, 2024 at 11:00 a.m. EDT. In order to be eligible for the Raffle Drawing, a Ticket Holder must have purchased their Ticket online before 10:00 a.m. EDT on October 2, 2024. Winning number will be randomly chosen, and the winner of the prize will be the Ticket Holder who has purchased a valid Ticket whose number matches the number chosen. If the Raffle is held, all prizes will be given away. If the Raffle is not held, all money will be returned to the Ticket Holders. There is no substitution of prizes. TICKET HOLDERS NEED NOT BE PRESENT TO WIN. 10. Claiming a Prize. Winning Ticket Holders will be notified by phone and/or email at the number or email address provided via website when purchasing the Ticket. RMHCK shall notify the winner within seven days of the drawing. The winner shall claim the prize within thirty days of the drawing. The name of the winner will be available at the Ronald McDonald House and online at rmhck.org/pappyraffle. 11. Obligations of Winning Ticket Holders. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Ticket Holder who wins the prize is responsible for all costs associated with that prize, including, but not limited to, registration, licensing, delivery and other applicable fees, as well as all local, state, and federal taxes that may be applicable. Ticket Holders are advised to consult with a tax advisor to determine any tax liabilities.
