NWSS, therefore, reserves all rights to any advertising, signage, announcements, etc., made on behalf of sponsors and supporters of the show. Accordingly, NWSS will not permit any sponsor advertising, signage, announcements, etc., other than those rights contracted directly with the NWSS. Breed Associations, members and exhibitors are, therefore, prohibited from providing exposure during their respective events held here at the NWSS for sponsors they have obtained without written permission from the NWSS. B. Signs on stalls cannot advertise commercial ventures or products. Stall signs must advertise farms, ranches, and stable only. Stable name signs with Incorporated commercial products must have prior approval from the Horse Show Manager. The Management reserves the right to remove signs in violation with the above rule. C. The Western Stock Show Association places great value upon the NW logo and all variations of the National Western name. Therefore, as of the 1993 show, the Association implemented a licensing program to control the use of the NW logo and all National Western names and ensure the compliance with specific quality standards for all merchandise. In accordance with this policy, the Association reserves the right to pursue appropriate legal action to stop the distribution and sale of merchandise that is not covered by a license. As part of this annual licensing program, the Association must approve the quality of merchandise that bears its name and trademarks and determine royalties due to the Association upon the granting of such license. We have selected vendors of certain types of merchandise and have exclusive license agreements with those vendors for all on-grounds sales of such National Western logo merchandise. Therefore, all other on-ground vendors are prohibited from selling or distributing any and all National Western logo merchandise. The NWSS looks forward to your cooperation with the Association in helping to protect its valuable trademarks and maintaining the high quality of merchandise that bear them. 23. FOOD & ALCOHOL: In accordance with the Colorado State Liquor Code, and City of Denver Law, the National Western Stock Show, Rodeo & Horse Show prohibits the disbursement, sales, or bringing of any non-permitted alcohol on grounds by a third party. Food and alcoholic beverages can be obtained from our in-house concessionaire, KM Concessions, located at various locations throughout the show grounds. 18 24. VIDEO CAMERAS: Any public display or use of any photos, videos or digital images of any NWSS event(s) for public dissemination without express written consent from NWSS is strictly prohibited.

All visitors (paying or non-paying) grant to the NWSS and their designees the irrevocable permission to use his or her voice or likeness in any media now or hereafter existing in connection with all or any part of the NWSS or related events, for any purpose whatsoever, including the commercial purposes of the NWSS and their sponsors, licensees, advertisers or broadcasters. NWSS reserves the right to use exhibitor and livestock images, portraits and likeness as captured by official NWSS photographers for promotions, advertising and marketing endeavors. 25.

Class Description $10,000 Gambler’s Choice Jumper Stake In this competition, each obstacle is allotted a number of points from 10 to 120 according to difficulty. Obstacles can be jumped in both directions. Each obstacle can be jumped twice to count. Competitors are credited with the number of points carried by each obstacle provided it is jumped clear. No points are awarded for an obstacle knocked down. Each competitor is allowed a fixed time of 60 seconds. During this time, he must cross the starting line in either direction and may jump all the obstacles he wishes in any order and in any direction. Sounding the horn declares the end of the round. The competitor must then cross the finish line in any direction for the time to be recorded. The competitor will then be allotted 20 seconds to jump the optional Joker Jump one (1) time for a plus or minus 200 points. The competitor who obtains the greatest number of points will be declared the winner. In the event of a tie in points, the fastest time taken between the starting line and the finish line will be decided. In the event of a tie in points and time for first place, there will be a jump-off according to the same formula with a fixed time of 40 seconds.
