			 Ohio lottery commission game rule number six hundred forty-three, "Money for
			 Life," shall be conducted at such times and for such periods as the commission
			 may determine. For the purpose of this rule, "sales cycle" shall mean any such
			 period, including reprints, beginning on the date when ticket sales are

									 Game rule number
			 six hundred forty-three is a key number match game and is generally known as an
			 "instant lottery."
(2)
									 Holders of valid tickets will remove the covering off
			 the entire play area to reveal one "Winning Number," five "Your Numbers" and
			 five corresponding prize values. If any one or more of "Your Numbers" matches
			 the "Winning Number," the player wins the corresponding prize value(s) shown
			 below the matching "Your Numbers." If the player matches the "Winning Number"
			 to one of "Your Numbers" and reveals a "Life" symbol in the corresponding prize
			 value, the player wins the "Life Prize Award" (which is five thousand dollars
			 per year for life (before taxes) until a minimum of one hundred fifty thousand
			 dollars (before taxes) is reached, or for the life span of the original prize
			 winner, whichever is greater) or the "Elected Cash-Option Prize Award" of
			 approximately seventy-five thousand dollars (before taxes) in lieu of the "Life
			 Prize Award." The duration of the "Life Prize Award" shall be determined by the
			 original prize winner's life span. If there is more than one prize winner of
			 the "Life Prize Award," then all claimants shall only be entitled to the share
			 cash-option prize award. Should the life span of the originally designated
			 winner be less than thirty years, then the prize winner's beneficiary(ies)
			 shall be entitled to continue receiving annual payments of five thousand
			 dollars a year (before taxes) until one hundred fifty thousand dollars is
			 reached. Should the "Life Prize Award" be claimed by any "person" other than an
			 individual (specifically; a corporation, limited liability company, business
			 trust, estate, trust, partnership or association, etc.) such claimant(s) shall
			 only be entitled to the cash-option prize award. Any claimant under eighteen
			 years of age shall only be entitled to the cash-option award. There are five
			 chances to win on each ticket.
