The Sweepstakes is void where prohibited by law and is subject to all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations. By participating in the Sweepstakes, you agree to accept the decision of the judge(s) as final in all matters relating to the Sweepstakes.

TIMING: The Sweepstakes Promotion Period begins at 7:30 a.m. EDT on 10/1/12 and ends at 2:00 p.m. EST on 11/30/12 (the “Promotion Period”).

OFFICIAL RULES:  For a copy of official Sweepstakes rules, mail your request before 11/30/12 with a self-addressed, stamped envelope with the correct amount of postage to: Saint Agnes Employees Federal Credit Union, “Family Contest,” Attn: Marketing Department, 720-E Maiden Choice Lane, Baltimore, MD 21228. Questions concerning any aspect of this Sweepstakes will be resolved by SAEFCU’s Board of Directors, and any such resolution will be final.

AGREEMENT TO OFFICIAL RULES: By participating in the Sweepstakes, each entrant fully and unconditionally agrees to and accepts these Official Rules.

METHOD OF ENTRY: All new members in good standing who join Saint Agnes Employees Federal Credit Union (SAEFCU) from 10/1/12 through 11/30/12 will be entered for a chance to win the Grand Prize; one entry per person total. SAEFCU members who joined previous to the Promotion Period are not eligible to enter except by using the alternate entry method. The drawing will be made by the SAEFCU Marketing department on 12/7/12 from available eligible entries, including entries generated by SAEFCU for new SAEFCU memberships opened within the Promotional Period. The winner will be selected by a random drawing from all fully-completed and timely-submitted entries. The drawing will be conducted by a judge or judges designated by SAEFCU.

ALTERNATE ENTRY METHOD: To win the Prize, you are not required to purchase goods or services or pay any money to SAEFCU. You may enter the Sweepstakes at any time during the Promotion Period. Limit: one entry per person. You may only enter one time; duplicate entries will be destroyed. To submit an alternate entry, mail one (1) original hand-written 3” by 5” index card with your contact information (first and last name; suffix, if any; address; city; state; ZIP code; phone number; and e-mail address, if any) and the words “SAEFCU Family Contest”; mail the card in an envelope to: Saint Agnes Employees Federal Credit Union, “Membership Sweepstakes,” Attn: Marketing Department, 720-E Maiden Choice Lane, Baltimore, MD 21228. All entries must be original entries; no mechanical reproductions of entries are permitted. Only one (1) alternate entry per person will be accepted. Alternate entries must be postmarked during the Promotion Period and received by SAEFCU’s Marketing Department before 12/7/12. SAEFCU assumes no responsibility for lost, late, incomplete, stolen, misdirected, illegible, or postage-due mail entries. Entrants may be considered ineligible to win the Sweepstakes Prize if, in its sole discretion, SAEFCU determines that said entrant is attempting to undermine the legitimate operation of the Sweepstakes by deception or other unfair playing practices.

DRAWING: One (1) Grand Prize Winner will be selected in a random drawing on or about 3:00 p.m. EDT on 12/7/12 from among all eligible entries received. Decision of SAEFCU is final. Potential Winner will be notified by e-mail and/or telephone by using the information provided on his or her submitted entry form, including entries generated by SAEFCU for new members in good standing who join SAEFCU during the Promotion Period. The Grand Prize will be awarded. Odds of winning will depend upon the number of eligible entries received. All entries become the property of SAEFCU and will not be returned.

PRIZE: The Grand Prize is one (1) KindleŽ e-book reader; valued at $80.00 USD. One (1) Grand Prize will be awarded. No substitutes or transfer of the Grand Prize are permitted. Amazon, Kindle, and the Amazon Kindle logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates. The Kindle reader is given away on behalf of SAEFCU. Amazon is not a sponsor of this Sweepstakes. The Winner is responsible for the payment of all applicable federal, state, and local taxes imposed on the Prize and may be required, as a condition of receiving a Prize, to provide SAEFCU with his or her Social Security Number so that an appropriate report may be filed with the appropriate taxing authorities. The Winner is not permitted to transfer or change his or her Prize, and is not permitted to receive cash in substitution of his or her Prize. Entrant needs not be present to win. Prize winner will be contacted by e-mail and/or telephone and will have seven (7) business days to respond via e-mail, by telephone, or in person. If SAEFCU is unable to contact a Winner within seven (7) business days from the first notification attempt, that Winner may be disqualified and an alternate Winner may be selected. Any notification of Prize returned as "undeliverable" will result in the disqualification of the Winner and the awarding of that Prize to an alternate Winner.

SAEFCU is not responsible for late, lost, damaged, misdirected, incomplete, illegible or destroyed Sweepstakes entries. SAEFCU may prohibit an entrant from participating in the Sweepstakes.
