Temporarily adds rules concerning scratch-off game number 125. Statutory authority: IC 4-30-3-9. Effective January 22, 2009.

Scratch-off game number 125 includes fifteen (15) separate and independent game areas labeled "GAME 1", "GAME 2", "GAME 3", "GAME 4", "GAME 5", "GAME 6", "GAME 7", "GAME 8", "GAME 9", "GAME 10", "GAME 11", "GAME 12", "GAME 13", "GAME 14", and "GAME 15". Each game area is played separately and the play symbols and prize symbols in one (1) game area cannot be used as play symbols or prize symbols in another game area.

SECTION 4. Each ticket in scratch-off game number 125 shall contain a total of forty-five (45) play symbols with three (3) play symbols located in each game area. If a question arises as to the identity of a play symbol, the play symbol caption will be used for final clarification.

SECTION 5. Each ticket in scratch-off game number 125 shall contain a total of fifteen (15) prize symbols with one (1) prize symbol located in and corresponding with each game area. If a question arises as to the identity of a prize symbol, the prize symbol caption will be used for final clarification. Prize symbol captions correspond with and verify each of the prize symbols as follows:

SECTION 6. The retailer validation code (for prizes up to five hundred ninety-nine dollars ($599)) verifies instant winners in this game. The retailer validation code that corresponds with and verifies each of these winners is as follows:

SECTION 7. Neither the retailer validation code, the pack-ticket number, the validation number, nor any portion thereof are play symbols or prize symbols and are not usable or playable as such.

SECTION 8. (a) A prize winner in scratch-off game number 125 is determined by removing the scratch-off material from the game areas revealing a total of sixty (60) play and prize symbols.

(b) If one (1) "" (five) symbol is revealed within an individual game area, the ticket holder is entitled to win the corresponding prize shown in that game area.

SECTION 9. The number of possible prizes and the odds for each prize level are as follows:

Total value of all prizes*: $5,853,900

Prize payout: 69.69%

Overall odds: 1 in 3.44

Approximate print quantity: 1,680,000 (-3%/+1%)

*The number and total value of prizes in this game are based on the approximate print quantity with a variance as stated above. Should the print quantity be changed for production of this game or subsequent reorders, the ratio of prizes and total value of all prizes to print quantity will be proportionately maintained and the overall odds and prize payout percentage will remain the same. Overall odds are determined by dividing the approximate total number of tickets by the approximate total number of prizes available.

Scratch-off game number 125 may be closed prior to all prizes being awarded.

SECTION 12. 65 IAC 4-1 through 65 IAC 4-3 apply to scratch-off game number 125, "TAKE 5".
