2020 TOPPS® MAKE YOUR PRO DEBUT™ GAME AND CONTEST OFFICIAL RULES NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. A PURCHASE WILL NOT IMPROVE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING. INTERNET ACCESS AND VALID E-MAIL ADDRESS ARE REQUIRED. By participating, you agree to these Official Rules and Sponsor’s decisions, which are final and binding in all respects and not subject to appeal. 1. ELIGIBILITY. The 2020 Topps® Make Your Pro Debut™ Game and Contest (collectively, the “Contest”) is open to legal residents of the 48 contiguous United States who are age 18 or older at the time of entry. Contest is void in Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and where prohibited by law. Employees, officers and directors (and their immediate families and same household members, whether related or not) of Sponsor, its parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, agencies and prize suppliers; retailers and distributors of Sponsor’s products; the MLB Entities (as defined below); Coca-Cola Park and/or the City of Allentown, Pennsylvania (as owner of the ballpark in which the Lehigh Valley IronPigs™ play); and The National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues, Inc. d/b/a “Minor League Baseball” are NOT eligible to participate in the Contest. An individual (even if otherwise eligible) will also be ineligible for a chance to win the Pro Debut Prize if any of the following applies: (a) he/she has been convicted of a felony or has felony charges pending against him or her; (b) he/she has been convicted of any crime (felony or misdemeanor) that Sponsor determines in its sole discretion involves drugs, domestic violence, or child endangerment or has charges of such crime pending against him or her; (c) he/she has an outstanding arrest warrant (felony or misdemeanor) against him or her; (d) he/she is subject to a restraining order. 2. TO PLAY. Look for a special “2020 Topps® Make Your Pro Debut™” insert card (“Pro Debut IC”) randomly inserted in packs of 2020 Topps Heritage® Minor League Baseball®, while supplies last. Odds of obtaining a Pro Debut IC are approximately 1:9. NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. For a chance to receive a Pro Debut IC at the same odds without purchase, submit a mail-in entry as follows: print your name, residential address, daytime phone number, age and 2020 MAKE YOUR PRO DEBUT on a 3”x5” card, insert in a business size (#10) envelope and mail to Topps Redemption Cards – 2020 TOPPS MYPD NPN, 2300 Stafford Avenue, Scranton, PA 18505, to be received by January 6, 2021. Sponsor will play for you. If your mail-in entry is selected, you will receive a Pro Debut IC. But, if it is not selected, you will NOT be notified. Limit (1) mail-in entry per household. Person utilizing mail-in entry method is solely responsible for submission of mail-in entry. Sponsor is not responsible for late, lost, misdirected, damaged, illegible, incomplete mail-in entries or for mail-in entries with insufficient postage. Receipt of mail-in entries will not be acknowledged and mail-in entries will not be returned. Pro Debut ICs are valid only for this Contest. For the avoidance of doubt, if you receive a Pro Debut IC, you may answer the survey questions and enter the Contest for a chance to win the Pro Debut Prize (per Rule 4 below) and you may also participate in the Game phase of the Contest for a chance to win at random a Game Prize of a Topps® Pro Debut baseball cap or a Topps® Pro Debut baseball pin (per Rule 3 below). IF YOU RECEIVE A PRO DEBUT IC, YOU HAVE NOT NECESSARILY WON ANY PRIZE IN THE CONTEST; RATHER, A PRO DEBUT IC IS REQUIRED IN ORDER TO PARTICIPATE IN THE GAME AT RANDOM AND/OR ENTER THE CONTEST FOR A CHANCE TO WIN THE PRO DEBUT PRIZE. Pro Debut ICs may only be used in accordance with these Official Rules.

Pro Debut IC (including the code on the back of the Pro Debut IC (the “Code”)) has no cash value and cannot be redeemed or exchanged for cash or credit. Any attempt to purchase/sell, transfer, assign or exchange Pro Debut IC/Code is void and may result in disqualification. Sponsor shall have no liability for a defective Pro Debut IC/Code. 3.

If Game Prizes are returned as undeliverable or otherwise not properly and timely claimed for any reason, such Game Prizes will NOT be awarded.

Each entrant may win a maximum of ten (10) First Prizes and twenty (20) Second Prizes. d) Only (50) First Prizes and (50) Second Prizes are available to be won in the Game phase of the Contest across all valid Game plays. If, due to programming, mechanical, typographical or other error of any kind, more than the indicated number of First Prizes and/or Second Prizes are properly claimed, a random drawing will be conducted by Sponsor to select winners for the indicated number of First Prizes and/or Second Prizes in the affected prize category/categories (excluding those prizes in the affected prize category/categories which were previously awarded) from among all eligible claimants of First Prizes and/or Second Prizes in the affected prize category/categories, as applicable. 4.
