Rogers Broadcasting Limited
 
1. (a)”Contest Period” starts at 8:20 a.m. on March 1st, 2010 and ends at 4:20 p.m. on April 9th, 2010, the “Contest Closing Date.” To enter, listen to 103.1 JACK fm Monday to Friday during the Contest Period for JACK’s $50,000 BIG BAG OF CASH (“JACK’s $50,000 BIG BAG OF CASH”) cue to call.  The designated caller number nine (9) to call the 103.1 JACK fm Contest line (250-384-1031) will be deemed to be the selected contestant to play the JACK’s $50,000 BIG BAG OF CASH Contest.  There will be three (3) Contest plays every weekday during the Contest Period, at approximately 8:20 a.m., 9:20 a.m. and 4:20 p.m.  All times are Pacific Times.
 
(b) Once the on-air personality has confirmed the designated caller, the caller will be deemed a selected contestant and the game commences.  The JACK fm, (“JACK fm”) announcer will access the first CASH AMOUNT (“CASH AMOUNT”) by playing a pre-produced clip which will announce a dollar amount. The contestant will then either have the choice to continue playing, or stop.  In order to win, the caller will need to stop playing before the loser sound effect (a donkey ‘hee haw’) sounds, the time of the loser sound effect will vary during the Contest Period.  When an entrant stops playing they will be eligible to win the amount of money last announced, and if the loser sound effect sounds before the entrant stops playing the entrant loses all money. The number of pre-produced amounts for each CASH AMOUNT and the total amount of money in each CASH AMOUNT will be pre-determined by Station management and will be kept secret from the contestant. If there is a dispute as to whether the contestant stopped playing prior to the loser sound effect sounding, the decision, which will be final, will be made by the Station in its sole discretion.

Callers will have five (5) seconds to respond once the call is answered.  If the telephone line is dead when answered by JACK fm, or no audible response is heard, or no one responds after five (5) seconds, JACK fm will answer the next call in sequence and the next call in sequence will replace that call.  In the event a call is cut off before the contest can be played, JACK fm will make its best efforts to make contact with the cut off caller provided enough personal information was gathered in order to correctly contact the cut off caller. In the event two (2) or more calls come through on the same line, all such callers will be advised to hang up and try again and the next call in sequence will replace that call.

(c) In the event that a selected contestant incorrectly answers the skill testing question, declines the prize, or fails to return a signed release and acknowledgment form, the prize will be forfeited.

(d) Any JACK fm listener may win JACK’s $50,000 BIG BAG OF CASH only once during the Contest Period. In the event that no prize is won, the contestant may attempt to play again.
