SECTION 6. Neither the retailer validation code, the game/pack/ticket number, the validation number, nor any portion thereof are play symbols or prize symbols and are not usable or playable as such.

SECTION 7. In order to determine if a ticket is a prize winner, the scratch-off material must be removed from the game play data area on individual tickets revealing a total of twenty-two (22) play and prize symbols. If any of the "YOUR NUMBERS" play symbols match either of the "WINNING NUMBERS" play symbols, the ticket holder is entitled to win the prize shown below and corresponding with the matching play symbol. If a player reveals a "065090800ERA04.jpg" (5X) multiplier symbol, the ticket holder is entitled to win five (5) times the prize located below and corresponding with that symbol.

SECTION 8. (a) The approximate number of possible prizes and the estimated odds for each prize level are as follows:

Total value of all prizes*: $4,347,000
Prize payout: 64.69%
Overall odds: 1 in 4.54
Approximate print quantity: 3,360,000 (-3%/+1%)

(b) The approximate number of prizes and the estimated odds provided in subsection (a) are calculated based on an approximate print quantity. The actual quantity of tickets will vary from the approximate print quantity of tickets within a range of minus three percent (-3%) to plus one percent (+1%). The actual number of prizes and the odds for each prize amount will vary depending on the actual quantity of tickets.

(c) If the print quantity of tickets is changed during production of this game or due to subsequent reorders of the game, the ratio of prizes and total value of all prizes to the print quantity will be proportionately maintained so that the overall odds and prize payout percentage will approximate the values provided in subsection (a).

SECTION 9. Prizes are subject to prior sales. The availability of tickets for sale in a scratch-off game depends on retailer orders for tickets. Not all tickets may be made available for sale prior to game closing and opened packs of tickets may be returned by a retailer to the lottery under 65 IAC 3-4-1(b).
