No refunds will be made except as otherwise determined by DRAGONS in its sole discretion.

The Raffle is subject to all applicable Federal, state and local laws.

4. RANDOM DRAWING: Every transaction is electronically tallied. The running total from Raffle Ticket sales will be periodically displayed and updated on video monitors throughout Fifth Third Field and other select locations. The winning Raffle Ticket number will be selected after the conclusion of each Raffle Period by random drawing from among all eligible Raffle Tickets purchased during the Raffle Period. The drawing will be held during approximately the 8th inning for Dayton Dragons baseball game Events. In the event of a weather delay or postponement of an Event, DRAGONS may, in its sole discretion, modify any pre-determined schedule with respect to the Raffle Period and/or the drawing. All drawings will be conducted by DRAGONS whose decision is final and binding.

5. PRIZE: Prior to the conclusion of the Event (approximately the 8th inning of Dayton Dragons baseball games), the selected Raffle Ticket number will be displayed on the video monitors at Fifth Third Field. The selected Raffle Ticket number will also be posted on the Raffle website located at www.daytondragons.com/5050. In the Event the scoreboard and/or website are inoperable, the selected Raffle Ticket number can be found at the designated Guest Services Booth near the main entrance at Fifth Third Field. The Participant that purchased the Raffle Ticket with the corresponding winning Raffle Ticket number (a "Prize Claimant") will receive fifty percent (50%) of the net proceeds (total collected by DRAGONS minus any related expenses from the Raffle Ticket sales) for the applicable Raffle Period (the "Prize"). All remaining proceeds from the Raffle shall be retained by DRAGONS.

6. CLAIMING A PRIZE: To claim the Prize, the Prize Claimant must contact DRAGONS and present the winning Raffle ticket in-person at the Dayton Dragons offices inside the Suite Level entrance of Fifth Third Field within thirty (30) days from the conclusion of the applicable Raffle Period. The winning Raffle Ticket is the only valid receipt for claiming a Prize. Each Prize Claimant must provide DRAGONS with all information required to claim the Prize (including tax identification information). In the event a Prize Claimant: (a) does not notify DRAGONS within thirty (30) days of the conclusion of the applicable Raffle Period; (b) is ruled ineligible for any reason; or (c) refuses the Prize, the Prize will be forfeited and will be retained by DRAGONS.

7. ODDS: Odds of winning are based on the total number of Raffle Tickets purchased in each Raffle Period.

8. TAXES / CHARITABLE DEDUCTION: Each Participant acknowledges that they have been informed that the IRS has taken the position that amounts paid for chances to participate in raffles, lotteries, or similar programs are not gifts and, therefore, the price of a Raffle Ticket does not qualify as a deductible charitable contribution. The Prize winner is responsible for any and all federal, state and local taxes, fees and other government assessments on the awarded Prize. Furthermore, each Prize winner acknowledges that federal law requires that a tax withholding on certain prize values must be collected from winners upon award or distribution. Federal and state withholding laws are subject to change without notice. The withholding laws in effect at the time each Prize is claimed will be followed.
