participating radio station. When the code word airs, listeners will be directed to
go to the station’s website or station app and enter the code word on the
sweepstakes page. Participants may also enter via one of the many non-code
word multiplier buttons, available on the sweepstakes entry page, that will prompt
you to take a further action in order to enter, which may include, for example,
visiting the station’s Facebook page, joining the station’s mailing list, subscribing
to the station on YouTube, following the station on Twitter, sharing links to the
sweepstakes on social media, and visiting advertiser websites (together, the
“Custom Multipliers”) to win a prize as described in 1B and 2.

sweepstakes page by 7pm each day local time. For each code word that is aired,
Townsquare will, within 10 days after the end of the Sweepstakes dates above,
select ONE winner who will receive (1) Prize package as described in Section 2.

Custom Multiplier before the end of the sweepstakes will be entered in a grand
prize drawing for an additional $5,000 cash prize (the “Grand Prize”).
