6. QUICKHIT SUBSCRIPTIONS.

To the extent that you have purchased a subscription, membership or like recurring or premium service ("Membership"), you expressly agree that QUICKHIT will automatically bill your Payment Method to start your Membership and then on a monthly, bi-annual or annual basis thereafter as applicable, depending on the type of Membership Plan you select, unless and until you cancel your Membership.� QUICKHIT will automatically bill your Payment Method on the calendar day that corresponds to the date you started your Membership. If the date you start your Membership is on a day that does not occur every month (e.g., the 31st), we will bill your Payment Method on the last day of the first month that does not contain such day (e.g., the 30th) and then from that day thereafter. By way of example, if you start a monthly Membership Plan on August 31st, we would next bill your Payment Method on September 30th and then again on October 30th.

Memberships may be cancelled at any time; however, QUICKHIT does not offer refunds or credits for any fees already paid and you must request cancellation at least 1 day before your next automatic billing. If you cancel your Membership, you will enjoy the benefits of such Membership until the end of your current subscription period. By way of example, if you start a 6 month Membership on August 31st, and cancel your 6 month Membership on January 1st, you would enjoy the benefits of your Membership until February 28th. Memberships may also be upgraded at any time. When you upgrade your Membership, your new Membership Plan will become effective immediately so you can enjoy the benefits of your upgraded Membership Plan without having to wait for your current subscription period to expire.

Membership Plans:

For Membership Plans with Quick Cash or Coaching Points allowances, the specified allowances will be awarded on the start date of the Membership and then monthly on the calendar day that corresponds to such date (or on the last day of the month if such day does not occur every month).

For Membership Plans with a Fantasy Points bonus, the specified bonus will be awarded to users every time they are awarded fantasy points (e.g., for completed games).

For Membership Plans with no banner ads, banner ads will not be displayed to users in the Game (e.g., at top of screen). Video ads will be played to users in connection with the Game (e.g., at halftime). Sponsored content may also appear in the Game (e.g., a branded scoreboard). Banner ads will also be displayed to users on the Sites before or after game play.

No credits or refunds will be made for any reason, including, but not limited to, the suspension or termination of your Account for a violation of the TOS, inclusive of the Rules of Conduct, and/or the EULA or our cessation of the Online Service at any time in our sole and absolute discretion. We reserve the right to amend, modify and/or terminate any Membership Plans at any time and for any reason, including Memberships that have already begun.

8. QUICKHIT PROMOTIONS.

We may offer promotions to users from time to time as part of the Online Services, including, but not limited to contests and other games of skill, including tournaments or challenges, or sweepstakes and other giveaways (each a "Promotion," collectively "Promotions"). In addition to the TOS and the terms and conditions set forth below, you also agree to the Official Rules for each such Promotion ("Official Rules") if you participate.

NO PURCHASE IS NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN ANY QUICKHIT PROMOTION . Unless otherwise specified in a Promotion's Official Rules, Promotions are only open to legal residents of any state in the United States of America or the District of Columbia who are the legal age of consent in the jurisdiction of their domicile as of the starting date for such Promotion and registered users of the Online Service who have a current Account in good standing with QUICKHIT. QUICKHIT's directors, officers, employees, contractors, representatives, agents, licensors, licensees, distributors, suppliers, parents, affiliates, successors or assigns and any other party who has been involved in the creation, development, production, promotion, marketing, hosting or operation of the Promotion and their respective family members are not eligible to participate in and/or win any prizes under any Promotion. Promotions are void where prohibited by applicable law.

The odds of winning a prize in a Promotion depend on the number of eligible users who compete, participate or perform the skills or tasks specified in the Official Rules on the designated date and within the designated time frame and/or the number of eligible users who enter a Promotion, register for the Online Service or log-in as specified in the Official Rules. Any time specified is in Eastern Standard Time as measured by QUICKHIT.

We will notify eligible users who have been selected as prize winners in a Promotion via the e-mail address we have on record for such user's Account. Users and/or selected winners are solely responsible for updating their e-mail address or other pertinent Account Data. We are not responsible for late, lost, misdirected or undeliverable prize notifications. We may verify the eligibility of all selected winners before awarding any prizes. If a selected winner cannot be contacted for any reason, is determined to be ineligible, fails to respond to a prize notification, or where required to do so, fails to complete and return a Waiver and Release within five (5) business days or such other time frame specified by QUICKHIT, such selected winner forfeits his/her prize. If a prize is forfeited, QUICKHIT may choose select an alternate winner or no winner at all. In the event of a tie in a Promotion, QUICKHIT may randomly choose a winner. In the event of a dispute about who submitted an entry to a Promotion, QUICKHIT will deem the user who provided the e-mail address when creating his/her Account to be the winner. All decisions with respect to any Promotions will be made by QUICKHIT in its sole and absolute discretion and are final and binding.

Prizes, if any, are not redeemable for cash. No assignment, transfer or substitution of a prize is permitted; however, QUICKHIT may substitute prize(s) of equal or greater value. Lost or stolen prizes cannot be replaced. Any and all federal, state, and local taxes are the sole responsibility of the winners. Unless otherwise specified in a Promotion's Official Rules, limit one (1) prize per eligible user (per valid e-mail address). Cash prizes will be fulfilled in the form of checks made out to the winner denominated in United States Dollars.

By participating in a Promotion and agreeing to accept a prize, each winner expressly authorizes QUICKHIT to identify the winner by their Coach and/or team name, post such name on a winner's list. By executing a Waiver and Release, if so required, and agreeing to accept a prize, each winner expressly authorizes Quick Hit to identify the winner, post the winner's name on a winner's list and to use the winner's name, including screen name, any other biographical information, including city and state of residence, and any image uploaded and/or created in connection with the Online Service or the Promotion, winning entry, and statements such winner made in connection with the Promotion in and on the Online Service without notification or compensation.

QUICKHIT is not responsible for lost, late, undeliverable, incomplete, illegible, or misdirected entries, or for any computer, online or technical malfunctions that may occur, including, but not limited to, interruptions or delays in operation, failure to receive an entry or properly account for an eligible users' number of games played, points scored or win/loss percentages, computer hardware, software or telecommunications failures, traffic on the internet or the inaccurate transmission of data or any combination thereof or any damage to a user's computer as a result. Automated tools (e.g., machines, computer, and scripts) may not be used to participate in a Promotion and any results will be discarded. Automated entries (e.g., sweepstakes services, macros) will not be accepted.

You agree to release and hold harmless QUICKHIT and its directors, officers, employees, contractors, representatives, agents, licensors, licensees, distributors, suppliers, parents, affiliates, successors or assigns and any other party who has been involved in the creation, development, production, promotion, marketing, hosting or operation of the Promotions from and against any and all losses, damages, rights, claims, and actions of any kind arising in connection with their participation in any Promotion or resulting from acceptance, possession, or use or misuse of any prize, including, but not limited to, personal injury, death, and property damage as well as claims based on publicity rights, defamation, or invasion of privacy.

Unless otherwise specified in a Promotion's Official Rules, the Sponsor of all Promotions is Quick Hit, Inc., 16 Chestnut Street, Foxboro, MA 02035 U.S.A. To request a copy of the Official Rules send a self-addressed stamped envelope to the Sponsor, Attn: Promotions. For the names of the winners, send a self-addressed, stamped envelope to the Sponsor, Attn: Promotions. Vermont residents may omit return postage. Requests for winner's lists must be received within thirty (30) days following the end date of the Promotion as specified in the Official Rules, except where prohibited by law.

All Promotions, inclusive of any and all related methodologies, graphics, designs, content and other materials, are the sole and exclusive property of QUICKHIT and/or its licensors, as applicable. Any commercial re-use of any materials relating to any QUICKHIT Promotion or any reproduction or adaptation thereof without our prior written permission is expressly prohibited. All federal, state, and local laws and regulations apply. The laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts apply to and govern all Promotions and any claims in connection herewith must be raised and resolved in the appropriate court having jurisdiction over Suffolk County, Massachusetts.
