				in which players can enter their non-winning WHEEL OF FORTUNE® Florida
				Lottery Scratch-Off tickets on the Florida Lottery website for a chance to win
				one (1) of eight (8) trips to Hollywood, California, and a chance to play a
				lottery players-only, non-broadcast game of WHEEL OF FORTUNE® and win up to
				one million dollars ($1, 000, 000).

				FORTUNE® Scratch-Off ticket in one of the Hollywood Trip Grand Prize Second
				Chance Drawings ("Hollywood Trip Drawings") further described in paragraph
				(4)(a) below, players must enter on the Florida Lottery's website at

				page of the Lottery's website, players can click on the WHEEL OF FORTUNE®
				banner(s) and follow the directions. Players will be prompted to log in or
				register. The 24-digit ticket serial number (4-digit game number and 20-digit
				ticket number) is located at the bottom on the front of a WHEEL OF FORTUNE®
				Scratch-Off ticket under the latex covering. Players are to Scratch off the
				latex covering to reveal the number and enter the 20-digit ticket number in the
				designated ticket entry area on the website. At the time of entering a
				non-winning WHEEL OF FORTUNE® ticket, players will be provided an option to
				play the WHEEL OF FORTUNE® interactive game on the website, where the
				number of entries and the Wheel Gold Award assigned to the ticket will be
				revealed. If players choose not to play the game or if they experience
				technical problems while playing the game, the entries that would have been
				revealed in the course of playing the game will be credited to their entry
				account for that draw period. Each non-winning WHEEL OF FORTUNE®
				Scratch-Off ticket is randomly assigned a predetermined number of entries from
				1 to 5, and a predetermined Wheel Gold Award from 25 to 500 that can be used on
				the Game Show Network's Facebook page to play the WHEEL OF FORTUNE®
				Facebook game.

				selected as winners in the Hollywood Trip Drawings, will also be included in
				the Preliminary Multi-State Second Chance One Million Dollar Bonus Drawing

				each win a Nintendo Wii[TM] video game system with a WHEEL OF FORTUNE®
				video game. A total of eight (8) Grand Prizes and sixty (60) Second Prizes will
				be awarded in the Hollywood Trip Drawings.

				attempt to notify each winner by telephone, U.S. mail or email using the
				contact information provided in the winner's registration data no later than
				one (1) week after the winners are drawn. If the Florida Lottery is unable to
				contact a Grand Prize winner within three (3) weeks of the date of the drawing,
				the winner will forfeit his or her right to claim the prize and the Florida
				Lottery will award the prize to an alternate winner. If the Florida Lottery is
				unable to contact the alternate winner within three (3) weeks, the alternate
				winner will forfeit his or her right to claim the prize and the Florida Lottery
				will award the prize to a second alternate winner. This process will continue
				until an alternate is contacted and the prize is claimed in accordance with
				subparagraph (4)(a)3. below, or the Florida Lottery has exhausted the list of
				available alternates, provided that, to meet the schedule for the Hollywood
				Trip, which is anticipated to take place on or about April 17, 2012, the last
				date upon which the Lottery will attempt to contact an alternate winner will be
				March 1, 2012. If the Lottery is unable to contact an alternate by that date,
				the Grand Prize will not be awarded. An alternate winner who has not claimed
				the Second Prize at the time of notification will be awarded only the Grand
				Prize. An alternate winner who has claimed the Second Prize at the time of
				notification may retain the Second Prize. If the Florida Lottery is unable to
				contact a Second Prize winner within three (3) weeks of the date of the
				drawing, the winner will forfeit his or her right to claim the prize and the
				Second Prize will not be awarded.
3. All entries in the Hollywood Trip Drawings
				are subject to validation by the Florida Lottery and may be disqualified if
				eligibility requirements are not met. To claim a prize in a Hollywood Trip
				Drawing, the player must submit to the Florida Lottery the original valid
				non-winning WHEEL OF FORTUNE® ticket bearing the entry number selected in
				the drawing. Without such ticket, the player will forfeit his or her right to
				claim a prize. Winners must submit the valid entry ticket along with a
				completed Winner Claim Form DOL 173-2, revised 02/11 or Spanish Winner Claim
				Form DOL 173-2S, revised 02/11, appropriate identification and a notarized

				are a winner. If a winner does not return the required forms within seven (7)
				days of notification, the winner will forfeit his or her right to claim the
				prize and the Florida Lottery will award the prize to an alternate winner as
				described above. Forms DOL- 173-2, 173-2S, DOL-474, and DOL-474S are hereby
