circumstances known at that time. “Essential contractual obligations” as
previously stated are those obligations whose fulfillment is essential to enable

limitations of liability shall not apply in the case of explicit guarantees by
the Sponsor, in case of malice and injuries to life, body or health as well as

technical failures or any other factor impairs the integrity or proper functioning

right to disqualify any individual it finds to be tampering with the entry

undermine the legitimate operation of the Contest may be a violation of
criminal and civil law, and, should such an attempt be made, Sponsor reserves
the right to seek damages and other remedies (including
attorneys’ fees) from any such person to the fullest
extent permitted by law. Sponsor’s
