Section 5012.2 - Payment of prizes

(a) Prizes for all games shall be calculated as follows:

(1) The prize money allocated from the winning pool to the first prize category shall be divided equally by the number of game panels qualifying for a first prize. For any Take Five drawing in which there is no game panel qualifying for a first prize, the money allocated to the first prize category shall be added to the money allocated to the second prize category.

(2) The prize money allocated from the winning pool to the second prize category shall be divided equally by the number of game panels qualifying for a second prize. For any Take Five drawing in which there is no game panel qualifying for a second prize, the money allocated to the second prize category shall be added to the money allocated to the third prize category.

(3) The prize money allocated from the winning pool to the third prize category shall be divided equally by the number of game panels qualifying for a third prize.

(4) No prize money will be allocated from the winning pool to the fourth prize category. The fourth prize shall be a free play in a future drawing of the Take Five game to be awarded to each game panel that qualifies for a fourth prize.

(5) For the purpose of calculating any cash prize to be paid, the calculation shall be rounded down so that prize can be paid in multiples of 50 cents.

(6) The holder of a winning ticket may win only one prize per game panel in connection with the winning numbers drawn for a particular Take Five game, but shall be entitled to the highest prize won by those numbers.
