4. SELECTION PROCESS:

Prior to the start of the Challenge, each Film Maker produced one (1) Film (each, a "Film") for the Sponsor. Each Film Maker's Film will be posted on Lexus.ca/FilmMastersChallenge (the "Website") between October 17, 2024 at 8:00 a.m. ET and October 31, 2024 at 11:59 p.m. ET (the "Voting Period"). Eligible Voters will be able to visit the Website and vote (each, a "Vote" and collectively, the "Votes") for their favourite Film.

VOTING LIMIT: There is a strict limit of one (1) Vote per Voter. For the avoidance of any doubt, this means that the same person cannot submit a Vote more than one (1) time during the Voting Period.

If it is discovered by the Sponsor (using any evidence or other information made available to or otherwise discovered by the Sponsor) that attempts were made by anyone to: (i) submit more than one (1) Vote per Voter; (ii) use multiple names, multiple identities, multiple email addresses, any automated, macro, script, robotic or other system(s) or program(s), and/or any other means not in keeping with the Sponsor's interpretation of the letter and/or spirit of these Rules to submit Votes; (iii) engage in any form of systematic voting from the same computer/IP address; and/or (iv) engage in any form of proxy voting scheme; then it may result in the disqualification, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Sponsor, of the Votes, Film and/or Film Maker to which such Votes relate. Any Votes determined by Sponsor, in its sole and absolute discretion, to be in violation of the Sponsor's interpretation of the letter and/or spirit of these Rules (including, without limitation, Votes that cannot be validated in accordance with these Rules to the complete satisfaction of Sponsor) are subject to disqualification in the sole and absolute discretion of the Sponsor.

All Votes are subject to verification at any time and for any reason. The Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to require proof (in a form acceptable to the Sponsor): (i) for the purposes of verifying the eligibility and/or legitimacy of any Vote or other information entered (or purportedly entered) for the purposes of this Challenge; and/or (ii) for any other reason the Sponsor deems necessary, in its sole and absolute discretion, for the purposes of administering this Challenge in accordance with these Rules. Failure to provide such proof to the complete satisfaction of the Sponsor within the timeline specified by the Sponsor may result in disqualification of the applicable Vote(s) that cannot be verified to the complete satisfaction of the Sponsor.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Individuals may encourage others to vote for a Film (e.g. via various social media sites and platforms); however, no form of incentive, inducement (including, without limitation, reciprocal voting sites and/or services), prize or chance of receiving any incentive, inducement, or prize may be offered as part of such encouragement in furtherance of receiving such individual's Vote for any Film. In addition, proxy voting schemes (or anything reasonably resembling a proxy voting scheme, as determined by Sponsor in its sole and absolute discretion) are hereby expressly prohibited. Any individual determined by the Sponsor and/or its representative(s) to be engaging in any such behaviours and/or in violation of the Sponsor's interpretation of the letter and/or spirit of these Rules (all as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Sponsor) will be disqualified, and the corresponding Votes, Film and/or Film Maker is/are subject to disqualification in the sole and absolute discretion of the Sponsor.

IMPORTANT NOTE: JUST BECAUSE A NUMBER OF VOTES APPEARS ON A LEADERBOARD OR OTHERWISE DOES NOT MEAN THAT THE FILM MAKER ASSOCIATED WITH THOSE VOTES IS OR WILL BE THE WINNING FILM MAKER. ANY OR ALL VOTES MAY BE VERIFIED BY THE SPONSOR IN ITS SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION AT ANY TIME AND FOR ANY REASON. ANY SUCH PUBLIC DISPLAY OF VOTES IS FOR ENTERTAINMENT PROPOSES ONLY. ONLY THE SPONSOR CAN DEEM AN ENTRANT TO BE THE WINNING FILM MAKER.

On November 11, 2024, 2024 (the "Selection Date") in Toronto, ON at approximately 5:00 p.m. ET, the Sponsor will tabulate the final number of eligible Votes submitted and received during the Voting Period in accordance with these Rules. The Film Maker that received the highest number of eligible Votes during the Voting Period (as determined by the Sponsor in its sole and absolute discretion) will be selected as the eligible winner of the Financial Grant. Odds depend on the number of eligible Votes submitted and received during the Voting Period in accordance with these Rules.

NO ONE IS THE WINNING FILM MAKER UNLESS AND UNTIL THE SPONSOR OFFICIALLY CONFIRMS THEM AS THE WINNING FILM MAKER IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE RULES. BEFORE BEING DECLARED AS THE CONFIRMED WINNING FILM MAKER, the eligible winning Film Maker will be required to sign and return the Sponsor's declaration and release form, which (among other things): (i) confirms continuing compliance with these Rules; (ii) acknowledges acceptance of the Financial Grant (as awarded); and (iii) releases the Sponsor and all of the other Released Parties from any and all liability in connection with the awarding and use/misuse of the Financial Grant. If the eligible winning Film Maker: (a) fails to return the properly executed Challenge documents within the specified time; (b) cannot accept (or is unwilling to accept) the Financial Grant (as awarded) for any reason; and/or (c) is determined to be in violation of these Rules (all as determined by the Sponsor in its sole and absolute discretion); then they will be disqualified.
