6. HOW TO CLAIM A PRIZE: Potential winner will be notified by postal mail, telephone, email or other method, as solely determined by Sponsor.

Each potential winner may be required to furnish proof of identification and other proof of eligibility under these Official Rules and may also be required to execute and return (or potential winner’s parent or legal guardian if potential winner is a minor in his/her state of residence) an Affidavit of Eligibility/Publicity Release within a time period specified by Administrator. Prize will be forfeited if prize claim is not timely received according to the instructions and by the prize claim deadline provided in the notification. The submission of prize claims is the sole responsibility of the Entrant, who assumes all risk of loss, damage, destruction, delay and misdirection of any communications and/or materials. Sponsor reserves the right to conduct a background check on the potential winner to determine whether it is appropriate and safe for winner to consult with Barbara Corcoran, and potential winner agrees to submit to such background check. Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion to disqualify a potential winner based on the results of the background check. If a potential winner is found to be ineligible or not in compliance with these Official Rules, fails the background check, declines to accept the prize, cannot be contacted or fails to timely respond after two separate attempts, or in the event the prize confirmation or prize is returned, undeliverable, or not (timely) responded to the prize will be forfeited, and may, in Sponsor’s sole discretion, be awarded to an alternate potential winner selected at random from the pool of eligible Entrants, if time permits. The Grand Prize must be completed in its entirety no later than November 30, 2018.
