At the conclusion of the Entry Period, Lampo will randomly draw one (1) entry from all the remaining entries received during the Entry Period. The Entrant whose name is on the first entry randomly drawn from the eligible entries received will be the “Potential Winner” of the Grand Prize set forth above. Odds of winning will depend upon the number of eligible entries received during each Sub-Entry Period and the Entry Period. If the Potential Winner is disqualified or does not claim the Prize, or if the Prize is forfeited, Lampo may, but is not required, to draw an alternate Potential Winner. The random drawing shall take place as soon as practicable after the close of the Entry Period. Decisions of the judges are final and binding.

7. Necessary Availability:  Availability: Unless otherwise stated herein or prohibited by law, a Lampo team member will contact the Potential Winner by phone.
