Two (2) business days immediately following the closing date of the final Entry Period, a Rogers representative will conduct a random draw from among all secondary prize winners. One secondary prize winner will be randomly selected and deemed the potential winner of the grand prize. The potential grand prize winner will be notified of his/her selection using the information provided at the time of entry.
