   11.  Second Chance Drawing Procedures:

   (a)  Frequency. The two Second Chance Drawings will be held at Lottery Headquarters. The odds of an entry being selected in a Second Chance Drawing depend upon the number of entries received.

   (b)  Eligibility for Second Chance Drawings. To be eligible for a Second Chance Drawing, a player must have complied with the requirements of section 10.

   (1)  By use of a mechanical device, 50 containers of Pennsylvania Pocono Raceway's NASCAR Cash entries will be selected. From each of these 50 containers, ten finalist entries will be drawn. As each finalist entry envelope is opened, its contents will be validated according to the requirements of section 10. If the finalist entry does not meet the requirements of section 10, another entry will be selected from that container; and so on, until a qualified entry has been chosen. The 500 validated finalist entries drawn will each win a racing gear prize pack, and will be eligible for the Grand Prize Finalist Drawing. There is no cash equivalent for the Pennsylvania Pocono Raceway's NASCAR Cash racing gear prize pack.

   (2)  This procedure will be repeated for each of the Second Chance Drawings set forth in subsection (a).

   (ii)  At the Pocono 500 Race, the five Grand Prize finalists, in the order they were drawn, will select one of five car positions on a racing track. By means of a mechanical drawing machine, Lottery Personnel will select one of five balls, determining the advancement of one of the five positions. This process will continue until a player crosses the finish line. The first player to cross the finish line will be the Grand Prize winner and shall win $20,000. The remaining four Grand Prize finalists shall each win $5,000.

   (2)  The Pennsylvania 500 Grand Prize Drawing.

   (i)  The five hundred validated finalist entries selected in the first Second Chance Drawing shall be placed in a mechanical device. Five finalist entries will be selected as Grand Prize finalists.

This process will continue until a player crosses the finish line. The first player to cross the finish line will be the Grand Prize winner and shall win $20,000. The remaining four Grand Prize finalists shall each win $5,000.

   (e)  The payment of the prize awarded in the Second Chance drawing to a person who dies before receiving the prize or to a person 17 years of age or younger shall be paid according to 61 Pa. Code §§ 811.16 and 811.27 (relating to prizes payable after death of a prize winner; and payment of prizes to persons under 18 years if age).
