VIDEO SUBMISSION CONTEST

How to Enter: During each ANTM Polling Period, Participants who upload a Video Submission automatically nominate themselves for the opportunity to win the finalist prize for that ANTM Polling Period and to become eligible to win the grand prize.

Judging Criteria: Eligible Video Submission received for the relevant ANTM Polling Period will be viewed by Anisa producers who will evaluate and judge (the “Judges”) the Video Submissions based on the following equally-weighted criteria: insightfulness, presentation and wording of Participant’s comment, and entertainment value. For the purpose of clarity there will be nine (9) or less judges. For each ANTM Polling Period, the Judges will then determine the Video Submission that in their opinion best satisfied the criteria above (each a "Finalist Video" and collective the “Finalist Videos”). The Finalist Video selected for each ANTM Polling Period will be revealed after the initial broadcast of the corresponding episode (if the episode is broadcast at all) on the Website. Only one of each Participant’s Video Submissions may be a Finalist Video; therefore, once a Participant’s Submission Video has been determined to be a Finalist Video, that Participant’s other Video Submissions will not be eligible to be Finalist Videos. Participants who submitted Finalist Videos will be eligible to win the grand prize. After the Finalist Video from the last ANTM Polling Period has been selected, all Finalist Videos will be posted on a webpage on the Website and identified as the Finalist Videos. The Judges will evaluate the Finalist Videos based of the criteria above. The Finalist Video that is determined to best satisfy the criteria above will be considered the winner of the grand prize ("Grand Prize Winner"). The Grand Prize Winner will be revealed during the broadcast of the finale episode of cycle 20 of the Series or on the Website after such broadcast has occurred.

Use of Videos: There is no guarantee that the Video Submissions selected as a Finalist Video will be used in any episode of the Series. Further, there is no guarantee that any Video Submissions included in an episode of the Series is a Finalist Video or the Grand Prize Winner.

Finalist Prizes: One (1) prize will be awarded to each of the Participants whose Video Submission is chosen as a Finalist Video (each, a “Finalist Prize” and collectively, the “Finalist Prizes”). The Finalist Prizes consist of a variety of products provided by Series’ sponsors, prize suppliers or others related to the Series. Approximate retail value of each of the Finalist Prizes is equal to or less than One Hundred Dollars (US$100.00).
Grand Prize: One (1) grand prize (the “Grand Prize”) will be awarded to the Participant whose Finalist Video is selected as the Grand Prize Winner. The Grand Prize consists of a gift card for Guess? products worth a retail value of approximately Two Thousand Dollars (US$2,000.00).

Prize Restrictions. If for any reason, Producers are unable to provide the items identified as Finalist Prizes and/or the Grand Prize (individually, a “Prize” and collectively, “Prizes”), Producers will provide an alternate Prize, as needed, that Producers will determine in their sole discretion to be of comparable value to the original Prize(s). In the event that a Participant who submitted a Finalist Video or the Grand Prize Winner (each, a “Winner”) is unable to receive a Prize, Producers shall have no further obligation to that Participant and Producers reserve the right to select an alternate Winner or none at all. All other expenses relating to acceptance of the Prizes not explicitly stated herein, including but not limited to taxes, are the responsibility of the Winners. Prizes are nontransferable.

GENERAL:
Each Participant agrees that the Administrative Parties are not responsible for any errors, typographical errors or misprints in these T&Cs or any materials, including, but not limited to, the advertising, promotion or offer of the ANTM Vote. If the ANTM Vote or, as applicable, the determination and assignment of the Experience element becomes compromised, hampered, interrupted, not capable of running or being fulfilled as planned, rendered impossible of performance in any way or prevented, including, without limitation, because of any kind of human error, computer viruses, bugs, electronic, hardware, software, Internet, network, technical or telephone or mobile telephone/wireless failures, tampering, unauthorized intervention, fraud, an event of force majeure or any other cause created by the Administrative Parties, the user or by any of the equipment or programming associated with or utilized in the ANTM Vote, the Administrative Parties reserve the right, at their sole discretion, to change the terms and conditions of these T&Cs, to cancel, modify, suspend or withdraw the ANTM Vote or any ANTM Vote offer and/or cancel, modify, suspend or withdraw any method of participation, without notice, and assign the Experience from among all eligible Voting Submissions received for the ANTM Vote prior to or after the cancellation, modification, suspension or withdrawal. As used herein, an event of force majeure shall be deemed to include, without limitation, an act of God; an act of terrorism, war, riot or civil commotion; fire; casualties; boycott; labor dispute, strike or stoppage (including a strike by the members of any union); an act of any federal, state or local authority; or any other similar or dissimilar act beyond the Administrative Parties’ control.

The Administrative Parties are not responsible and/or liable for any of the following, whether caused by the Administrative Parties, the Participant or by human or other error: any lost, late, incomplete, illegible, mutilated or misdirected Voting Submissions, e-mail or mail or postage-due mail; any error, omission, interruption, defect or delay in transmission or communication, including, but not limited to, lost or unavailable mobile telephone/wireless connection or failure; viruses or technical or mechanical malfunctions; interrupted or unavailable cable or satellite systems; failures of electronic equipment, computer hardware or software including, but not limited to, inability of a Participant’s computer to interface with the provided Voting Submission mechanism; lost or unavailable network connections, or failed, incorrect, incomplete, inaccurate, garbled or delayed electronic communications.

Each Participant agrees not to knowingly damage or cause interruption of the ANTM Vote and/or prevent others from participating in the ANTM Vote. Any person who supplies false information, submits Voting Submissions by fraudulent means or is otherwise determined to be in violation of these T&Cs may forfeit the Experience and may be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. CAUTION: ANY ATTEMPT TO DAMAGE ANY SERVICE OR WEBSITE OR UNDERMINE THE LEGITIMATE OPERATION OF THE ANTM VOTE VIOLATES CRIMINAL OR CIVIL LAWS. IF SUCH AN ATTEMPT IS MADE, NETWORK AND/OR THE PRODUCERS MAY, AT THEIR SOLE AND REASONABLE DISCRETION, DISQUALIFY ANY PARTICIPANT MAKING SUCH ATTEMPT AND NETWORK MAY SEEK DAMAGES (INCLUDING ATTORNEYS’ FEES) TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, INCLUDING CRIMINAL PROSECUTION.

An Administrative Party’s failure to enforce any provision in these T&Cs will not constitute a waiver of that or any other provision.

Except where prohibited, as a condition of participating in this ANTM Vote, each Participant agrees that any and all disputes that cannot be resolved between the Participant and any Administrative Party, claims and causes of action arising out of or connected with this ANTM Vote or any Experience-related consideration awarded shall be resolved individually, without resort to any form of class action. Further, in any such dispute, under no circumstances will a Participant be permitted to obtain awards for and hereby waives all rights to claim punitive, incidental or consequential damages, or any other damages, including attorneys’ fees, other than Participant’s actual out-of-pocket expenses (if any), not to exceed two hundred fifty dollars ($250), and Participant further waives all rights to have damages multiplied or increased.

All claims brought by a Participant must be brought in the courts of the state of California, and the ANTM Vote and any dispute arising under or related thereto (whether for breach of contract, tortious conduct or otherwise) shall be governed by the laws of the state of California applicable to agreements executed and fully performed within the state of California and without reference to its conflicts of law principles.
