Total number of Activity Points (not including the Bonus Activity Points) that can be earned throughout the Rewards Program Period is 7,610.

5. All references to “Rewards Points” include Purchase Points, Activity Points and Bonus Activity Points. Rewards Points do not constitute property of the participant and can be revoked at any time as provided in these Terms and Conditions. Sponsor reserves the right to rescind Rewards Points credited to an account which were obtained as a result of fraudulent activity or technical failure or malfunction of any kind. Sponsor will also have the right to discontinue the participation privileges of any participant who engages in fraudulent activities or uses the Rewards Program in any manner inconsistent with these Terms and Conditions as determined solely by Sponsor. Discontinued participation may result in the loss of all accumulated Rewards Points.

7. Once Rewards Points are registered to a participant’s account, the points are not transferable or assignable and may only be used by that participant, except as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion.

8. The sale, barter, transfer or assignment of any accumulated Rewards Points is strictly prohibited. Participants may not combine Rewards Points obtained by others for deposit into a single participant account, nor transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of Rewards Points in a manner in violation of these Terms and Conditions. Any attempted use or accumulation of Rewards Points in any manner not authorized herein may result in the forfeiture of all Rewards Points, disqualification from the Rewards Program and termination of the participant’s Rewards Program Account. Sponsor reserves the right to take any other additional action it deems appropriate, in its sole discretion, in the event that Sponsor believes that a participant has violated any of these Terms and Conditions.

Further, no redemption request can exceed the total number of Rewards Points a participant could have legitimately earned up to that point in the Rewards Program Period.

3. Sponsor reserves the right to modify the reward items and their corresponding Reward Points values at any time and for any reason during the Reward Program Period. Sponsor provides no guarantee that any Reward items will remain available for the entire term of the Rewards Program Period.
