5. Taxable Prizes and Gifts: All portions of any Prize with a dollar value are subject to income tax. All applicable
taxes to any Winners due to his/her receipt of the Grand Prize or a Category Prize will be paid by DENSO. This is
done by adding the tax dollar amount to the Winners paycheck, which is then taken out as federal and state
taxes. This practice is called gross up and in general, this has no impact on the individual. However, in some
cases, this practice can increase the associates taxable income level for the year. By submitting an Entry, all
Entrants accept that their taxable income may rise due to the gross up process.

obligation; and (3) grants Sponsor and its assignees and designees the non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free,

but not limited to advertising and promotional purposes, without time or territorial limitation, compensation,

permission or notification, unless prohibited by law. If for any reason an Entrant's Photo is confirmed to have been
erroneously deleted, lost, or otherwise destroyed or corrupted, the Entrants sole remedy is another chance to
upload his/her Photo, provided that if this is not possible due to discontinuance of the Contest, or any part of it, for
any reason, Sponsor, in its sole discretion, may elect to award the prize to Entrants whose Photo was received up
to the time of impairment. Released Parties assume no responsibility for undeliverable e-mails resulting from any
form of active or passive e-mail filtering by an Entrants Internet service provider and/or insufficient space in an

domain associated with the submitted e-mail address. An Entrant may be requested to provide Sponsor with proof
that the Entrant is the authorized e-mail account holder of the e-mail address associated with the
account/submission. Proof of submitting Photo/Entry will not be deemed to be proof of receipt by Sponsor.
ALL PHOTOS RECEIVED ARE THE VIEWS/OPINIONS OF THE INDIVIDUAL ENTRANT AND DO NOT
REFLECT THE VIEWS OF SPONSOR or DENSO IN ANY MANNER. Sponsor shall have no obligation (express
or implied) to use any Photo, or to otherwise exploit any Photo or, if commenced, to continue the distribution or
exploitation thereof, and Sponsor may at any time abandon the use of any Photo for any reason, with or without
legal justification or excuse, and Entrants shall not be entitled to any damages or other relief by reason thereof.

associated Photos) if fraud or tampering is suspected, including any means which subvert the entry process, or if
the Entrant fails to comply with any requirement of participation as stated herein or with any provision in these
Official Rules.

attempt be made, Sponsor reserves the right to seek damages and other remedies (including attorneys fees)
from any such person to the fullest extent permitted by law. Sponsors failure to enforce any term of these Official
Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that provision.
