While registering, you must accept the Fresh Step® Paw Points® Terms, after which registration is complete. It is your sole responsibility to ensure that information contained in your Loyalty Program Rewards Account profile is up-to-date at all times. At the time of registration and log-in, you may be asked to complete a survey. The survey is optional and will only be presented to you periodically when you visit the Loyalty Program site. If the survey is not completed after five (5) tries, it will no longer be presented. Only the individual named as the primary account holder will accrue points and will be entitled to access Rewards Account information. Members earn rewards points ("Rewards Points") for qualifying purchases of Fresh Step® cat litter products as well as behavioral activities including tell-a-friend, viewing content, photo upload or answering survey questions. The number of "behavior-related" Rewards Points available to members will be capped on a daily and action basis to maintain an 80/20 ratio of points earned via purchase versus behavior. A summary of a member’s Rewards Account may be viewed at www.freshstep.com/pawpoints. Company will attempt to credit members' accounts with Rewards Points on a timely basis. However, each member shall have the responsibility of ensuring that his or her Rewards Points are properly credited. Any claim for Rewards Points not credited accurately must be received by Company within six (6) months of the date of claimed accrual of such Rewards Points or 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time ("ET") on June 30, 2010, whichever is earlier, or otherwise such Rewards Points shall no longer be valid or usable. Members who do not show activity (logging in) to their Rewards Account for one (1) year will have their Rewards Account deactivated and their Rewards Points will expire and be forfeited without compensation. Two (2) email warnings will be issued to the member prior to the deactivation as well as a confirmation email following the deactivation of the Rewards Account.
Company shall have no liability for any printing, production, typographical, mechanical or other errors in the Rewards Points summaries distributed by Company or its agents, for any delay or failure to credit Rewards Points to member accounts or for any failure to provide Rewards Account summaries as outlined herein. Company reserves the right to invalidate Rewards Points from a member's Rewards Account with notice if it determines in its sole discretion that such points were improperly credited to such member's Rewards Account or were obtained fraudulently or otherwise in violation of these Terms. Company reserves the right to require proof of accrual of Rewards Points and Company reserves the right to delay the processing or redemption of any Rewards Points without notice, in order to assure compliance with the Terms outlined herein. Members, by participating in the Loyalty Program, are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of individual member's Rewards Accounts and password and for restricting access to member's computer, and member agrees to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under member's Rewards Account or password. Without limiting any other remedies, Company may suspend or terminate any Rewards Account if Company suspects in its sole discretion that any member or other person has engaged in fraudulent activity in connection with this Loyalty Program. Rewards Points do not constitute property, do not entitle a member to a vested right or interest and have no cash value. As such, Rewards Points are not redeemable for cash, transferable or assignable for any reason. The sale, barter, transfer or assignment of any accumulated Rewards Points, other than by Company, is strictly prohibited. Any Rewards Points which Company deems in its sole discretion to have been transferred, sold, bartered or assigned in violation of the Loyalty Program's Terms may be confiscated and/or canceled. Participation in the Loyalty Program is subject to the Terms, as well as policies and procedures that Company may adopt or modify from time to time. Any failure to abide by the Terms or any policies or procedures implemented by Company, any conduct detrimental to Company, or any misrepresentation or fraudulent activities in connection with this Loyalty Program, or failure to act in a manner consistent with federal, state, or local laws, regulations or ordinances, may result, in addition to any rights or remedies available to Company in law or equity, in the termination of membership in the Loyalty Program, as well as forfeiture of any Rewards Points accrued to date and any other benefits earned in connection therewith, in Company's sole discretion.
4. Rewards Points. All Rewards Points collected during the previous phase of the Loyalty Program will be carried over into the current phase and credited to the member's Reward Account. Beginning 12:00 a.m. ET June 3, 2008 and ending 11:59 p.m. ET on June 30, 2010, members will receive, for qualifying purchases of Fresh Step® cat litter products that are properly credited to the member’s Rewards Account, Rewards Points according to the attached chart ("Rewards Points Per Package Chart"). Members may also receive points for the following behavior activities: (i) using the "Tell-A-Friend" functionality to send "Kitty eCards" to their friends to tell them about the Loyalty Program; (ii) completing the optional survey; and (iii) uploading a photo of their favorite moment with their cat.

Each qualifying product will have a unique Paw Points® code inside or affixed to the outside of the package. To receive your Rewards Points, members must use a computer with internet access to enter the unique Paw Points® code online at http://www.freshstep.com/pawpoints. Each Paw Points® code can only be used once for deposit to one (1) Rewards Account. Only official Paw Points® codes, authorized by Company and collected from packaging purchased at retail, are valid and will be accepted into the Loyalty Program. Rewards Points are subject to verification and no mechanical reproductions will be accepted. We suggest you retain your original unique Paw Points® code numbers for your records. Rewards Points will be issued to the primary account holder of the Loyalty Program Account. The Loyalty Program and all Rewards Points expire no later than 11:59 p.m. ET on June 30, 2010, unless the Loyalty Program is extended by Company pursuant to the Terms. Therefore, all requests for Rewards Points deposits must be communicated to Company no later than 11:59 p.m. ET on June 30, 2010. Fraudulent requests or submissions for Rewards Points deposits will be investigated and voided. In the event of fraud, abuse of privileges, or violation of the Loyalty Program Terms, Company reserves the right to deny participation at any time and to pursue appropriate administrative and/or legal action, including criminal prosecution, as it deems necessary in its sole discretion.
5. Changes to Rewards Points Structure. The Rewards Points structure is subject to modification or limitation at any time, with or without notice, in Company's sole discretion, including, without limitation, the right to establish additional means of accruing Rewards Points, the right to modify and delete any or all of the recognized means of accruing Rewards Points existing at any given time, the right to change the rewards available and their values and types and the rewards redemption terms, and the right to exclude specific types of transactions from Rewards Points eligibility.
6. Redeeming Points for Rewards. Subject to Company’s rights to add, delete, or otherwise make changes to the Rewards Points structure and the rewards as more fully expressed in the preceding Section 5, Rewards Points may be redeemed for merchandise, gift cards, and other items of value (collectively, the “Rewards”) found in the Catalog of Rewards which is posted and, from time to time, updated in the Loyalty Program website at http://www.freshstep.com/pawpoints. See http://www.freshstep.com/pawpoints for details on how to redeem Rewards Points. Rewards Points redeemed for Rewards will be subtracted from a member's account at the time the member requests a Reward. Each redeeming member is solely responsible for ensuring that their shipping address is correct in their Loyalty Program Rewards Account profile prior to Reward redemption. Each redeeming member is responsible for paying all shipping and handling charges for any Reward selected which is an electronic code of value for purchasing items on another website, as disclosed at the time of redemption. Otherwise, shipping and handling charges are included in the Reward Point value required for Reward redemption. Company’s obligation regarding delivery of a Reward is satisfied upon shipment of the selected Reward to the address identified in the member’s Loyalty Program Rewards Account profile as of the date of Reward redemption. Company is not responsible for lost or stolen Reward(s) shipments and will be responsible for non-receipt of Rewards only for instances of shipment to an address different than the one in the member’s Loyalty Program account profile as of the date of Reward redemption. Members must allow eight to ten weeks for shipment of a selected Reward. Unused Rewards Points, and any portions thereof, may not be exchanged or redeemed for cash, or other goods and services. Once Rewards Points have been redeemed for a Reward, they are no longer valid for any subsequent redemption and they may not be returned or refunded to a member's Loyalty Program Rewards Account for any reason. Refunds, exchanges and other issues are governed by the merchandise vendor's terms and conditions applicable to the particular Reward redeemed and are not the responsibility of Company. The availability of any Reward or Catalog of Rewards items offered in the Loyalty Program are subject to availability and may change at any time, without notice, in the sole discretion of Company. Rewards may be available only in limited quantities and will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Members should regularly consult the Loyalty Program website for updates about Reward availability.
7. Expiration of Rewards Points. Except for deactivation of inactive accounts and expiration and forfeiture of Reward Points as described in Section 3 above, Rewards Points shall be maintained in the member's account until they are redeemed for a Reward or until they expire not later than 11:59 p.m. ET on July 30, 2010 ("Redemption Deadline"). No extensions, cash refunds or other exchanges will be allowed for expired Rewards Points. Any Reward Points remaining in a User's Account following the Redemption Deadline will be forfeited without compensation. The Rewards Points have no cash value and are only redeemable for Rewards offered via the Loyalty Program.
8. Modification To, Termination or Extension of Loyalty Program Terms. (a) Modification to Terms: Membership in the Loyalty Program is offered at the discretion of Company and it reserves in its sole discretion the right to modify the Terms, Rewards Points redemption values, benefits, Reward levels, conditions of participation, rules for issuing, redeeming, retaining, using or forfeiting Rewards Points and Rewards and their respective duration or timing, or any other aspect of the Loyalty Program, in whole or in part, at any time, with or without notice, even though such changes may affect the redemption value of the points already accumulated. Company will give reasonable advance notice of any modification of the Terms hereof which may adversely impact your Rewards Account. Members understand that the most recent version of the Terms will be located at the Loyalty Program website. A member's continued use of the Loyalty Program following the posting on the Loyalty Program website of conspicuous notice of any modification will indicate member's acceptance of any modification to the Terms hereof. Any member may object to the modification to the Loyalty Program and/or its Terms by no longer participating. (b) Termination: The Loyalty Program will terminate at 11:59 p.m. ET on June 30, 2010, or earlier at the sole discretion of Company (the “Program Termination Date”). In the event of early termination, Company shall give conspicuous notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the date that such termination becomes effective, during which time you may still accrue and redeem Rewards Points, provided however, that you agree that Company shall not be required to give thirty (30) days notice if such termination is due to the filing of a petition in bankruptcy, an adjudication of bankruptcy, insolvency, an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or any other discontinuance of business. All Rewards Points must be redeemed prior to the Redemption Deadline. You should not rely upon the continued availability of the Loyalty Program or any Rewards Points accumulated in connection therewith after the Program Termination Date. (c) Extension: Company may, at its sole discretion, extend the Loyalty Program beyond the Program Termination Date set forth above. In the event Company does extend the Loyalty Program beyond the Program Termination Date, Company shall give conspicuous notice prior to the date that such extension becomes effective. Members who participate in the Loyalty Program after the extension agree to be bound by the Terms then in effect.
9. Limitation on Liability. COMPANY WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR ANY INJURY, LOSS, CLAIM, DAMAGE, OR ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS OR LOST SAVINGS), WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, THAT ARISES OUT OF OR IS IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH (A) ANY USE OF THE LOYALTY PROGRAM, (B) ANY FAILURE OR DELAY BY COMPANY IN CONNECTION WITH THE LOYALTY PROGRAM (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, ANY COMPONENT OF THIS LOYALTY PROGRAM); OR (C) THE PERFORMANCE OR NON PERFORMANCE OF THE LOYALTY PROGRAM BY COMPANY, EVEN IF COMPANY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGES. This disclaimer of liability applies to any damages or injury caused by any failure of performance, error, omission, interruption, deletion, defect, delay in operation or transmission, computer virus, communication line failure, theft or destruction or unauthorized access to, alteration of, or use of your registration information, whether for breach of contract, tortious behavior, negligence, or under any other cause of action. If, despite the limitation above, Company is found liable for any loss or damage which arises out of, or is in any way connected with, any of the occurrences described in the limitation above, then its liability will in no event exceed, in total, the sum of US $100.00. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, SO THE LIMITATIONS ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
10. Disclaimer of Warranties. COMPANY MAKES NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND REGARDING THE LOYALTY PROGRAM, WHICH IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. COMPANY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY THAT ITS LOYALTY PROGRAM WILL BE ERROR-FREE. COMPANY FURTHER DISCLAIMS ANY WARRANTY AS TO THE ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS AND TIMELINESS OF ANY CONTENT OR INFORMATION DISTRIBUTED WITH RESPECT TO THE LOYALTY PROGRAM. COMPANY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND THOSE ARISING BY STATUTE OR OTHERWISE IN LAW OR FROM A COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE DISCLAIMER OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THIS WARRANTY DISCLAIMER MAY BE LIMITED IN ITS APPLICABILITY TO YOU.
11. Taxes. Determination and payment of tax liability on awards, including income tax, if any, are the sole responsibility of the individual member.
12. Acts Beyond Company Control. The failure of Company to comply with the Terms because of an act of God, war, fire, riot, terrorism, earthquake, actions of federal, state, or local governmental authorities or for any other reason beyond the reasonable control of Company, shall not be deemed a breach of the Terms. If any such contingency shall last for more than sixty (60) days, Company shall have the right to terminate the Loyalty Program immediately by giving notice and shall have no further liability to any member.
13. Governing Law and Consent to Jurisdiction. The laws of the State of Michigan, without regard to its conflict of laws principles, will govern these Terms, as well as your and Company’s observance of them. If you take any legal action relating to your use of this Loyalty Program or these Terms, you agree to file such action only in the state or federal courts located in Oakland County, Michigan.
14. No Waiver. Company's failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision unless acknowledged and agreed to by Company in writing.
15. Captions. The headings in these Terms are for your convenience and reference. These headings do not limit or affect these Terms.
16. Complete Agreement. These Terms, together with those items made a part of these Terms by reference, make up the entire agreement between Company and the Loyalty Program members relating to the Loyalty Program, and replaces any prior understandings or agreements (whether oral or written) regarding the Loyalty Program. If a court of competent jurisdiction holds or declares any part of these Terms to be unenforceable or invalid for any reason, such provision(s) will be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and all other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect. All questions or disputes regarding eligibility for the Loyalty Program, collection or redemption of Rewards Points, or a member's compliance with these Terms will be resolved by Company in its sole discretion.

All mail-in entries must be postmarked and received by the dates specified in Section 3 above. All entries become the exclusive property of Sponsor, and none will be acknowledged or returned.

Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, invalid, unintelligible, illegible, misdirected or postage-due entries, which will be disqualified.
Limit: Each participant may enter up to ten (10) times per day by any method or combination of methods of entry during the Promotion Period. Multiple entrants are not permitted to share the same email address. Any attempt by any entrant to obtain more than the stated number of entries by using multiple/different email addresses, identities, registrations and logins, or any other methods will void that entrant's entries and that entrant may be disqualified. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. In the event of a dispute as to any registration, the authorized account holder of the email address used to register will be deemed to be the registrant or player. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned an email address by an Internet access provider, online service provider or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address. Each potential winner may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holder.
5. Prize Drawings: Administrator is an independent judging organization whose decisions as to the administration and operation of the Sweepstakes and the selection of the potential winners are final and binding in all matters related to the Sweepstakes. Administrator will randomly select the potential Sweepstakes winner for each Monthly Entry Period from all eligible entries received during the applicable Monthly Entry Period, on or around the dates specified in Section 3 above. Non-winning entries will not carry over into drawings for subsequent Monthly Entry Periods. Each potential winner will be notified by email, mail or phone. If a potential winner cannot be contacted, or prize is returned as undeliverable, potential winner forfeits prize. Potential winners must continue to comply with all terms and conditions of these Official Rules, and winning is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements. In the event that a potential winner is disqualified for any reason, Sponsor will award the applicable prize to an alternate winner by random drawing from among all remaining eligible entries. Only three (3) alternate drawings will be held, after which the prize will remain un-awarded. If the August Prize is unclaimed, it will remain un-awarded.

Any attempt by any person to deliberately undermine the legitimate operation of the Sweepstakes may be a violation of criminal and civil law, and, should such an attempt be made, Sponsor reserves the right to seek damages from any such person to the fullest extent permitted by law. Sponsor’s failure to enforce any term of these Official Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that provision.

No more than the stated number of prizes will be awarded. In the event that production, technical, seeding, programming or any other reasons cause more than the stated number of prizes as set forth in these Official Rules to be available and/or claimed, Sponsor reserves the right to award only the stated number of prizes by a random drawing among all legitimate, un-awarded, eligible prize claims.
11. Disputes: Except where prohibited, entrant agrees that: (1) any and all disputes, claims and causes of action arising out of or connected with this Sweepstakes or any prize awarded shall be resolved individually, without resort to any form of class action, and exclusively by the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan (Southern Division) or the appropriate Michigan State Court located in Oakland County, Michigan; (2) any and all claims, judgments and awards shall be limited to actual out-of-pocket costs incurred, including costs associated with entering this Sweepstakes, but in no event attorneys’ fees; and (3) under no circumstances will entrant be permitted to obtain awards for, and entrant hereby waives all rights to claim, indirect, punitive, incidental and consequential damages and any other damages, other than for actual out-of-pocket expenses, and any and all rights to have damages multiplied or otherwise increased.
