members of Look To Book, are legal residents of one of the fifty (50) United States, the District
of Columbia, or Canada (excluding Quebec), and are the age of majority or older in their
state/province/territory of residence at the time of entry (“Eligible Entrants”). This is a trade
Sweepstakes and is not open to the general public. Winning a prize is contingent upon
fulfilling all requirements set forth herein. Look To Book Terms and Conditions apply;
http://www.looktobook.com/sectiontemplate.do?sidemenu=termsandconditions.sidemenus&sect
ion=terms.home. Employees, contractors, directors and officers of Carlson Hotels, Inc.
(“Sponsor”) (other than Eligible Entrants) and Gage Marketing LLC (“Administrator”), and each
of their respective parent companies, affiliates, subsidiaries, franchisees, or any of their agents,
advertising, promotional and other agencies (collectively, the “Sweepstakes Parties”), and their
immediate families (spouse, parents, siblings, children and their respective spouses) and
persons living in the same household of such individuals (whether related or not) are not eligible
to enter the Sweepstakes or win a prize. By entering, Eligible Entrants agree to be bound by
these Official Rules and all decisions by the Sponsor, which shall be final and binding in all
matters pertaining to the Sweepstakes.
2. HOW TO ENTER THE SWEEPSTAKES: To receive one (1) Entry (as defined below) into the
Sweepstakes, Eligible Entrants must complete each of the following three steps during the
Sweepstakes Period (in any order):
1. TIC: Book one (1) Eligible Booking (as defined below) for a client at a Carlson Rezidor
hotel, which is Consumed (as defined below) during the Sweepstakes Period; and
2. TAC: Take and pass one (1) Look To Book quiz on Quizbook at LookToBook.com; and
3. TOE: Confirm, update or add a valid email address to your Look To Book profile on your
“Look To Book” account at LookToBook.com.
For purposes of this Sweepstakes “Eligible Booking” means a booking made during the
Sweepstakes Period by an Eligible Entrant for such Eligible Entrant’s client for a hotel room
(discounted rates such as travel agent rates or award night stays are not eligible) at a Carlson
Rezidor property where the Eligible Entrant has entered the Chain Code CW and Eligible
Entrant’s personal booking name in the SI field at the time of the initial reservation. For
purposes of this Sweepstakes “Consumed” means the Eligible Booking is not cancelled and is
completed and paid for by the Eligible Entrant’s client on or before September 30, 2014. A
reservation booked for or consumed by an Eligible Entrant is not an Eligible Booking. For
avoidance of doubt, the Eligible Booking must be booked and Consumed during the
Sweepstakes Period. All required steps specified herein are referred to as the Entry (individually
“Entry” and collectively “Entries”). Limit one (1) Entry per Eligible Entrant during the entire
Sweepstakes Period. Eligible Entrants will only receive one (1) Entry regardless of how many
Eligible Bookings an Eligible Entrant makes and/or how many Look To Book quizzes are
passed.
Those who do not: follow all of these instructions, provide all requested information, complete all
three required steps, and/or abide by these Official Rules, the Look To Book Terms &
Conditions or other instructions of Sponsor will be disqualified in Sponsor’s sole discretion.
3. RANDOM DRAWING: Three (3) potential winners will be selected in a random drawing to be
held on or about October 16, 2014 from among all Entries received during the Sweepstakes
Period. Odds of winning a prize depend upon the number of eligible Entries received. The
drawing will be conducted at the office of Gage Marketing, LLC (“Administrator”) at 10000
Highway 55, Minneapolis, MN, 55441. Potential winners will be notified by email, mail or phone
on or about October 17, 2014 using the information provided by Entrant in his/her Look To Book
account. Sponsor is not responsible for any change of email address, mailing address and/or
telephone number of entrants. Before being declared a winner, a potential Canadian winner
must first correctly answer, without assistance of any kind, whether mechanical or otherwise, a
timed mathematical skill-testing question. The skill-testing question will be administered by mail
or email. Winners are subject to verification, including verification of age.
If a potential winner is found not to be eligible or not in compliance with these Official Rules, or if
prize notification is returned as undeliverable, potential winner will be disqualified, prize will be
forfeited and an alternate may be selected in Sponsor’s sole discretion. In the event that
potential winner is disqualified for any reason, Sponsor reserves the right to award the prize to
an alternate Eligible Entrant who will also be selected randomly, even if the disqualified potential
winner’s name may have been publicly announced.

any device or artifice to register multiple times will be disqualified and forfeits any and all prizes
won, in Sponsor's discretion. In the event a dispute arises regarding the identity of a winner, the
winning Entry will be declared made by the Authorized Look To Book Account Holder of the
Look To Book account used to submit the Entry. An “Authorized Look To Book Account Holder”
is defined as the natural person who is assigned to a specific Look To Book account by
