SEVERABILITY: In the event that any provision is determined to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable or illegal, these Official Rules shall otherwise remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with their terms as if the invalid or illegal provision were not contained herein. 11. DISPUTES; GOVERNING LAW: YOU AND SPONSOR AGREE THAT, EXCEPT FOR DISPUTES THAT QUALIFY FOR STATE COURTS OF LIMITED JURISDICTION (SUCH AS SMALL CLAIMS, JUSTICE OF THE PEACE, MAGISTRATE COURT, AND SIMILAR COURTS WITH MONETARY LIMITS ON THEIR JURISDICTIONS OVER CIVIL DISPUTES), ANY CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM, WHETHER AT LAW OR EQUITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED THIS SWEEPSTAKES, REGARDLESS OF THE DATE OF ACCRUAL OF SUCH DISPUTE, SHALL BE RESOLVED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY INDIVIDUAL (NOT CLASS-WIDE NOR COLLECTIVE) BINDING ARBITRATION. Arbitration is the submission of a dispute to a neutral arbitrator, instead of a judge or jury, for a final and binding decision, known as an “award.” Arbitration provides for more limited discovery than in court and is subject to limited review by courts. Each party has an opportunity to present evidence to the arbitrator in writing or through witnesses. An arbitrator can only award the same damages and relief that a court can award under the law and must honor these Official Rules. Any arbitration will take place in the county where you reside and will be determined by a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”), and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The Rules, including instructions for how to initiate arbitration, are available at http://www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. The arbitrator shall decide all issues of the case on the basis of the applicable

law, not equity. If you initiate arbitration, you must serve Sponsor (at the address identified in Section 15 of these Official Rules. Any filing fee or administrative fee required of you by the AAA Rules shall be paid by you to the extent such fee does not exceed the amount of the fee required to commence a similar action in a court that otherwise would have jurisdiction. For all non-frivolous complaints, Sponsor will pay the amount of such fee in excess of that amount. The arbitrator will allocate the administrative costs and arbitral fees consistent with the applicable rules of the AAA. Reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses will be allocated or awarded only to the extent such allocation or award is available under applicable law. You and Sponsor agree that this Sweepstakes affects interstate commerce so that the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply and govern the interpretation and enforcement of this provision (despite the choice of law provision). This agreement to arbitrate shall survive termination of the Sweepstakes or these Official Rules. If a court or arbitrator determines in an action between you and us that this Class Action Waiver is unenforceable, the arbitration agreement will be void as to you. These Official Rules and the interpretation of its terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Iowa without regard to its conflicts of laws provisions. For any matters which are not subject to arbitration as set forth in these Official Rules and/or in connection with the entering of any judgment on an arbitration award in connection with these Official Rules and/or the Sweepstakes, the parties irrevocably submit and consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts with jurisdiction nearest the County of Linn in the State of Iowa. The parties agree not to raise the defense of forum non conveniens. 12.

Please review the Sponsor’s Online Privacy Statement at https://www.transamerica.com/individual/privacy-policy/.

Sponsor may engage certain third party companies to perform services in connection with the administration of this Sweepstakes and information provided by entrants may be collected and used by those third parties for purposes of administration of the Sweepstakes and the fulfillment and verification of prize awards. 13. NOTICE TO ENTRANTS: The Sponsor is not responsible for: (i) lost, late, misdirected, damaged, or illegible Entries; or (ii) error, omission, interruption, deletion, defect, delay in operations or transmission, affecting transmission of an Entry, prize notice or acceptance on account of technical problems.

SPONSOR RESERVES THE RIGHT TO SEEK DAMAGES AND PURSUE ALL REMEDIES AGAINST ANY INDIVIDUAL, WHETHER OR NOT AN ENTRANT, WHO INTERFERES OR ATTEMPTS TO INTERFERE WITH THE OPERATION OF THE SWEEPSTAKES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. 14.
