Winner Determination:
Between March 10, 2016 and April 11, 2016 (the “Judging Period”), a panel of judges, as selected by the Challenge Sponsor and/or Public Outreach, will evaluate all eligible Submissions against the weighted criteria below to determine the winners of the First Place Prize, Second Place Prize, and Third Place Prize.
Criteria
(Please note: each field will be weighted equally)
Each Submission will be given a score (the “Score”) out of 100 by the panel of judges. In the event there is a tie between two or more Submissions, the Submission (from amongst all such tied Submissions) with the highest score under Criteria 1 will be given priority. In the event there is still a tie between two or more Submissions based on the score for Criteria 1, the Submission (from amongst all such tied Submissions) with the highest score under Criteria 2 will be given priority. In the event there is still a tie between two or more Submissions based on the score for Criteria 2, the Submission (from amongst all such tied Submissions) with the highest score under Criteria 3 will be given priority.
The participant with the highest Score will be eligible to win the First Place Prize; the participant with the second highest Score will be eligible to win the Second Place Prize; the participant with the third highest Score will be eligible to win the Third Place Prize.
The odds of being selected as a winner depend on the number and calibre of eligible Submissions received during the Challenge Period and the ability of a Submission to satisfy the judging criteria outlined above. Additionally, the odds of being selected for the Internship Prize are 1 in 3 and depend on the quality of the participant’s interview with Purolator.
Prize Substitution: Any prize is non-exchangeable, non-transferable, non-refundable, has no cash-surrender value, and must be accepted as awarded with no substitutions. The Challenge Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to substitute and/or modify any prize with (a) prize(s) of equal or greater value for any reason.
Winner Conditions: To be declared a winner, a selected participant must first: (i) have complied with, be in compliance with, and continue to comply with the Rules; (ii) sign and return a publicity release; and (iii) sign and return a Declaration and Release form within a specified period of time.
