2015 Q4 iPad Skills Contest Terms and Conditions

This document sets forth the general terms and conditions (the “Terms and Conditions”) which apply to participation in the Sunrun Inc. (“Sunrun”) 2015 Q4 iPad Skills Contest Guidelines (the “Q4 iPad Contest”).  Participation in the Q4 iPad Contest is considered acceptance of these Terms and Conditions. The Q4 iPad Contest shall only be valid during the Promotional Period, which runs from October 1, 2015, to December 31, 2015.

Sunrun reserves the right to both change these Terms and Conditions from time to time and/or to terminate the Q4 iPad Contest at any time and without prior notice. As such, Participants (as defined below) should check these Terms and Conditions from time to time for changes. The failure by Sunrun to enforce any provision of these Terms and Conditions shall not constitute a waiver of that provision.

PROMOTIONAL PERIOD: The contest shall run from October 1, 2015, to December 31, 2015, and shall expire at 11:59 p.m. on December 31, 2015.

PARTICIPANT ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS: The Q4 iPad Contest is open to all employees of Sunrun or its subsidiaries who (i) are not compensated through an incentive-based compensation plan, (ii) who submit the First Name, Last Name and Phone Number (“Required Information”) of an individual (the “Referee”) directly to https://sunrun.getambassador.com/login/ during the Promotional Period prior to either the date the Referee first contacts Sunrun to discuss a quotation for service, or the date the Referee is first contacted by a Sunrun representative, and (iii) who submit the highest number of Qualified Referees (defined below) (a “Participant”) during the Promotional Period. Required Information submitted through alternate channels will not be counted in determining who has met the criteria for being awarded a Prize (as defined below). No fee is required for entry into the Q4 iPad Contest.

To be counted in determining which Participant has submitted the most Referees, a Referee may not have been referred to Sunrun previously, as reflected in Sunrun’s records. If a Referee is referred by multiple Participants, the first Participant to submit the Required Information, based on the date and time of the submission (as determined by Sunrun in its sole discretion) shall be the only Participant to have such Referee count toward determining whether the Participant has won a Prize.

All Required Information must be accurate and sufficient such that Sunrun may prepare a quotation for installation of a Solar Facility on the Referee’s home within 30 (thirty) days after expiration of the Promotional Period. By submitting a Referee’s name, each Participant agrees to the Terms and Conditions set forth herein.  The Terms of Use applicable to Participants’ use of Sunrun’s website can be found at http://www.sunrun.com/terms-of-service.

A Participant’s time of entry into the Q4 iPad Contest will be determined by Sunrun in its sole discretion.

BREAKING A TIE: In the event of a tie, the Participants who have tied will be asked to submit  additional Qualified Referees in a ten (10) day period to be determined by Sunrun in its sole discretion. The first Participant to submit the requested number of Qualified Referees shall receive a Prize.

REFEREE ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS: To be considered a Qualified Referee, an individual must (i) live within a state that Sunrun services; (ii) own his or her residence; and (iii) schedule and complete an initial consultation within the Promotional Period; and otherwise meet Sunrun’s eligibility requirements for becoming a Sunrun customer (the “Eligibility Requirements”).

A  Participant may not refer someone who lives in the same household as the Participant, provided, however, that a Participant may refer himself or herself or someone in his or her household if the Participant has multiple homes and has not previously submitted information for home(s) not subject to a Customer Agreement with Sunrun (“Second Home Referee”). Participants who submit Second Home Referees will be eligible to receive a Prize only with respect to the Second Home Referee’s residence as of the date of the referral.

Participants shall be judged by members of the Sunrun Marketing team based on the foregoing Eligibility Requirements for Qualified Referees.

PRIZES: The 25 Participants who refer the most Qualified Referees during the Promotional Period shall receive a 16GB iPad® Mini with Wi-Fi in Space Gray valued at approximately $200.00 (the “Prize”). Participant winners shall receive Prizes within ninety (90) days from the end of the Promotional Period.
