If a person does not provide satisfactory evidence within the reasonable time requested, the Promoter may treat the entry as invalid or the Prize as unclaimed, subject to clause 10. 3. Promotion period 3.1 The Promotion commences and ends at the dates and times in Schedule 1. All times are New South Wales local time. 3.2 Entries received outside the Promotion Period are invalid. 4. How to enter 4.1 To enter the Promotion, an eligible entrant must complete a Qualifying Transaction during the Promotion Period. 4.2 A “Qualifying Transaction” is a purchase by an eligible entrant of an Eligible Product from the Promoter where: (a) the entrant signs the relevant MNC Solar Power contract during the Promotion Period; (b) the entrant pays the deposit required under that contract; and (c) the Promoter receives and clears the deposit before the close of the Promotion Period. 4.3 “Eligible Product” means: (a) a new residential solar-only system supplied by the Promoter; (b) a new residential battery-storage system supplied by the Promoter; (c) a new residential solar-and-battery package supplied by the Promoter under one contract; or (d) an eligible battery-storage expansion supplied by the Promoter to an existing MNC Solar Power residential customer, in each case as confirmed by the Promoter’s contract and product records. Before publication, MNC Solar Power must confirm whether any product, battery model, system size, capacity, contract value, repair, replacement, commercial installation or other transaction type is excluded. 4.4 The Eligible Product must be purchased at the Promoter’s normal retail price. There is no separate entry fee. The purchase price of the Eligible Product is not a fee for entering the Promotion. 4.5 After a Qualifying Transaction is verified, the Promoter will allocate the entrant the number of entries stated in Schedule 1 and will record those entries in the Promoter’s competition-entry register. The Promoter may send the entrant an entry confirmation by email, SMS or another electronic method. 4.6 The entry categories in Schedule 1 are the only entry method. An entrant cannot receive an entry for leaving a review, providing a rating or testimonial, referring a customer, sharing or liking content, following an account, attending an event, or completing any other activity that is not a Qualifying Transaction. 4.7 Entries do not stack. If an entrant completes more than one Qualifying Transaction, only the entry allocation with the highest number of entries applies, up to the maximum five (5) entries per entrant. For example, a qualifying solar-and-battery package receives five (5) entries, not the combined total of solar-only and battery-only entries. 4.8 An entry may be removed or cancelled before the Draw if the Promoter reasonably determines that: (a) the Qualifying Transaction has been cancelled, rescinded, terminated or refunded in full; (b) the required deposit has been reversed, dishonoured or has not cleared; (c) the transaction is not genuine or has been entered into primarily to manipulate the Promotion; (d) the entrant is ineligible; or (e) the entrant has provided false, misleading or incomplete information or otherwise breached these rules. 4.9 The Promoter is not responsible for an entry that is lost, late, corrupted, incomplete, incorrectly submitted, misdirected, not recorded as a result of a technical or administrative error, or otherwise not received by the Promoter, except to the extent that liability cannot lawfully be excluded. 5.

The Promoter may exclude invalid entries before the Draw in accordance with these rules. 5.3 For each final valid entry identifier, the Promoter will generate one securely numbered physical draw ticket. The tickets will be placed in a secure draw barrel before the Draw. 5.4 The Promoter will keep reasonable records of entry validation, ticket generation and the Draw for the fair conduct of the Promotion and for the handling of any complaint. 6. The Draw 6.1 The Draw will take place at the time, date and location in Schedule 1. 6.2 An independent radio representative nominated by the Promoter will randomly draw one (1) ticket from the secure draw barrel. The person associated with the first valid entry identifier drawn is the provisional winner. 6.3 The Promoter will film the Draw. The filmed record is intended to promote transparency. A delay, interruption or technical failure in filming, live-streaming or transmission does not invalidate a Draw that is otherwise conducted in accordance with these rules. 6.4 The Promoter will keep a record of the Draw, including the winning entry identifier, time and date of Draw, and the identity of the person who drew the ticket. 7. Prize 7.1 There is one (1) prize: the Prize Vehicle and the inclusions stated in Schedule 1. 7.2 The Prize Vehicle is a new 2026 BYD ATTO 1 in Arctic Blue with Black + Grey interior.

It will not be used as a Promoter company vehicle or a dealer demonstrator. 7.4 The Prize value is $27,609, including GST.

It must be registered in the winner’s name, unless otherwise required by law. 7.8 If the exact Prize Vehicle is unavailable due to circumstances outside the Promoter’s reasonable control, the Promoter may substitute a new vehicle of equal or greater retail value, subject to applicable law and any notification or approval required by NSW Fair Trading. The Promoter will take reasonable steps to notify entrants of any substitution. 7.9 The Prize Vehicle is subject to the manufacturer’s and dealer’s standard warranty and supply terms.
