Inconsistent with these Sports Betting Rules and Regulations, the Sports Betting Rules and Regulations must be followed. The application of relevant Gaming Rules and Regulations shall not be construed as to conflict with any other provision of these Sports Betting Rules, article 30, title 44 or any other applicable statute. The Illinois Gaming Board (IGB) solicited and received input from the public, the sports wagering industry, and other stakeholders regarding proposed rules and any other comments relevant to the Illinois Sports Wagering Act contained in P.A 101-0031. The 30 day public comment period closed on September 27, 2019. Sports Betting Rules Applicable to All Sports 1. All sporting events and non-sporting events must take place on the date and at the site scheduled - unless otherwise specified. Time changes within a day do not affect wagers. B Betting result B1 Common betting rules B1.1 Specific Sport Rules (B2): There are exceptions or variations to these rules for certain sports and bets. The bettor should therefore always consult the sport-specific rules of each sport - found under “Special rules” - as the sport-specific rules will take precedence over the general betting rules.

General Rules

1. The posted dates and times of fixtures are purely informational. Pinnacle cannot guarantee accuracy. An incorrectly posted date and/or time is not grounds for voiding bets.
2. If a fixture isn’t completed within 30 hours of its officially planned starting time, then all bets on that fixture will be void. The exceptions to this rule are:
   1. Fixtures which in their normal course can take longer than 30 hours, such as golf tournaments.
   2. Sport-specific exceptions laid out in the rules section for each individual sport.
   3. Bets on the “First Team to Score” have action as soon as there is a score, regardless of whether the fixture is completed.
3. The result of a fixture will be the final determination by the fixture’s governing body on the date of the fixture’s completion. Pinnacle does not recognise protested or overturned decisions. The result of bets on a fixture suspended after the start of competition will be decided according to the betting rules specified for that sport. If nothing is specified in the sport’s rules, then General Rule #2 applies.
4. Unless otherwise specified in a particular sport’s rules, all bets on a fixture will be void if the venue is changed.
5. Bets on a specific period count only the scoring in that period, and are unaffected by what happens in prior or subsequent periods. If for any reason a fixture is not completed within the time specified in our rules, bets on the full fixture will be void. Any periods that have been completed will have action.
6. If a “Draw” price is offered in a Money Line market, and the draw happens, then bets on each team lose. If a draw is not offered and a draw happens, then bets on both teams are void.
7. In any fixture involving a forfeit, walkover, or any other event where the fixture is considered complete without having been played, all bets will be void, regardless of how the governing body of its league scores it.
8. If a market includes exactly one or two names of competitors, then all listed competitors must participate in the fixture for the bet to have action.
9. Misspellings, typographical errors, and teams changing names are not grounds for bets to be void, as long as it is clear based on the context what the intended fixture was.
10. If a fixture is offered with an incorrect number of rounds or periods or with a non-standard duration for the sport without it being indicated, all bets on that fixture will be void.
11. For aggregate Home/Away score markets of a league on a Day (or Week in the case of American football), if all fixtures on that Day/Week are not played to completion all bets on the market are void.
12. Multi-way betting is 'ALL-IN': bets always have action unless a stipulation is added to the market that a certain competitor must start for action. If such a stipulation is included, then all bets on all competitors will be void if the stipulated competitor does not start in that specific event.
13. All winning bets on Multi-Way markets are paid out at full odds, regardless of the number of winners.
14. If a market is offered with “The Field” as a betting option, named teams or competitors must beat every other competitor for a bet on that competitor to win. If a listed competitor ties for a win, bets on the tied competitors will be void, and all other bets will be lost.
15. All settled markets are final after 72 hours and no queries will be entertained after that period of time. Within 72 hours after markets are settled, Pinnacle will only reset or correct the results due to human error, system error or mistakes made by the referring results source.
16. Pinnacle reserves the right to void any bet at any time if it deems the bet to have been made in a fraudulent manner.
17. All bets will be accepted or rejected purely at Pinnacle's discretion. In-Play bets may be subject to a short delay before they are accepted and/or they will be kept pending during dangerous situations at Pinnacle’s discretion.
18. If there is an obvious error in the odds or limit of a market, bets on that market may be void.
19. In case of any contradictions: Market Rules take precedence over Sport Rules; which take precedence over General Rules.

American Football

1. If a game is suspended with fewer than 55 minutes completed, all bets on the Game-period will be void and bets on completed periods will have action.

2. If a game is not started within 12 hours of its originally scheduled time all bets will be void.
3. Bets on the Game and 2nd Half-periods include points scored in overtime.

A fake Field Goal or fake Punt which results in a Touchdown by the team that snapped the ball is considered an offensive Touchdown.

12. Pass Interference Penalties: Both offensive and defensive Interference counts, however the penalty must be accepted and enforced on the play to be considered valid. If the penalty is declined or if there are offsetting penalties negating enforcement of Interference, then the winner will be determined on the next Interference penalty.

Introduction to Rules

We pride ourselves on our customer service and our commitment to operating our business fairly and in a responsible way. All transactions and bets placed with Coral are covered by our rules. Changes to our rules will be communicated to you on our website.

You must exercise your own judgement in choosing to place a bet. You acknowledge that, in placing your bet, you are not relying on any statement of any employee of Coral relating to the subject matter of the bet. The terms of your bet may only be varied by oral or written notice given by an authorised representative of Coral. Coral reserves the right to refuse part or all of a bet.

General Rules cover all sports, but are superseded by any rules specific to individual sports.

'All In' or 'All in Play or Not'

'All in' or 'All in play or not' markets are markets that have been priced up to reflect the fact that the selection may not take any part in the event. Therefore if your selection does not play, or take part in the event, your bet will stand as a loser.

Acceptance and Validation of Bets

Late bets

Bets can only be placed on the outcome of a future event or race, unless we are offering special ‘betting in-running prices’ for that event or race. If Coral mistakenly accepts a bet for an event that has already started then the bet will be void and your stake returned, except in the following circumstances:

• Where bets are taken after the start of an event, bets will stand if nothing has happened which would significantly alter the chances of the selection winning or losing.
• In the case of football matches, bets will be valid if they are placed within five minutes of kick-off, providing there has been no score in the match or no player has been sent off. If a player has been sent off or there has been a goal, or a penalty has been awarded but not yet taken, then the bet will be void and the stake returned.

All bets placed after the result of an event is known will be void win or lose.

Late Bets via Internet and Telephone Betting

Internet bets include bets placed on any of our remote channels such as Digital TV and WAP. In the case of such bets, the bet is struck when a bet id or receipt exists in our back end systems or database.

• In the case of Horse Racing, we would allow a horse bet to stand (win or lose) if only a small part of the race had elapsed and if no significant event had occurred, such as a horse falling or refusing to race.

Late Bets in our Coral Shops

• In the case of horse races, where our EPOS systems record an automatic “no more bets time”, if a bet is taken after the start of an event it will still be valid if it is placed before the automatic “no more bets time”. For horse races of less than one mile, the automatic “no more bets time” is set at 10 seconds after the actual start of the race. For horse races of a mile or greater, the automatic “no more bets time” is set at 20 seconds after the actual start of the race. Please note, for customers betting in shops in Ireland on races of 2 miles or greater the automatic 'no more bets' time is set at 30 seconds after the actual start of the race.
• In the case of dog and virtual races, where our EPOS systems record an automatic “no more bets time”, if a bet is taken after the start of an event it will still be valid if it is placed before the automatic “no more bets time”. For dog and virtual races, the automatic “no more bets time” is set at 2 seconds after the actual start of the race.

Account Corrections

Coral has the right to recover from you any amount overpaid and has your authority to adjust your account to reflect the true outcome and rectify the mistake. An example of such a mistake might be where a price is incorrect Acceptance and Validation of Bets) or where we enter a result of an event incorrectly.

Ante Post Bets

Ante Post bets are accepted on the basis of ‘all in’, whether the horse or selection participates or not. This means that if the horse or selection does not run or participate in the race/event named, the bet is a loser. This applies even if the selection was not entered in the race, as long as there was the possibility that it could have been entered at a later stage.

Ante-Post Horse Racing

Unless advertised differently ante-post bets will be declared void in the following circumstances:

the race is abandoned and does not take place at a later date at the same venue;

• the race is declared void;
• the race is moved to a different venue;
• the selection is balloted out;
• the selection was ineligible for the race at the time the bet was struck. For example, if after all entry stages have been closed, a bet has been struck on a runner who is not in the list of entries then the bet will be considered void;
• it is not possible for the selection to win at the time the bet was struck, for example the horse is dead;
• the ante-post bet is offered 'with a run' which is a specific ante-post bet where stakes are not lost on the non-running horse.

Postponed Race(s)/Meetings - Race(S) Run Another Day

All Ante-Post Bets Placed Before Final Declaration Stage

Bets will stand if the race is run on a later date at the same venue.

All Bets Placed After Final Declaration Stage.

If a bet is placed after the final declarations, but the race is postponed to another day, all bets will be void.

Each-Way Ante Post bets are settled according to the Each-Way terms advertised at the time the bet was placed. Ante Post selections can be included in most types of bets, including our range of speciality bets. However, any built-in bonuses and consolations specific to certain speciality bets (such as double the odds one winner on a Lucky 15/31/63 bet will not apply.

Betting In Play

Bet in Play is available on a number of live events. Whilst every effort is made to ensure that the prices quoted are correct, the nature of live betting (i.e. constantly changing prices), means that on occasion, the price may have changed by the time the bet is placed. The correct price at the time the bet is accepted will be used to settle the bet.

Customers should be aware that certain 'live' feeds, be they on TV, radio or the internet are subject to delays and might be watching an event slightly behind or slightly ahead of other users. This includes live streaming provided by Coral.

A 'delay' is placed on all betting in play bets, the length of which varies depending on the sport.

As indicated in the Errors section, any live scores or clocks displayed on the site during a bet in play event are for guidance purposes only, and although we make every effort to ensure that this information is accurate, Coral accepts no liability should the displayed information be listed incorrectly.

Dead Heats

A dead heat in horse racing is when two or more runners finish tied for the same place in any race.

An example of this may be when two selections cannot be split by a photo finish and the course would determine both selections as the winner.

In order to calculate your returns in the event of a dead heat, you would need to divide your total stake by the number of selections which finished 'tied', and then multiply by the odds at which the bet was placed.

Disputes

If you wish to make a query or complaint, as a first step you should as soon as reasonably practicable contact the shop’s Duty Manager if it is regarding a shop, or our Customer Support Team for any non-shop related points, for assistance. If you are unable to resolve your query satisfactorily with our shop manager you should then contact our Customer Support Team. If, having spoken to a member of the team, your query or complaint is not resolved, you can ask for the matter to be escalated to a manager or supervisor. Our manager/supervisor will look into your query/complaint in more detail and contact you back with a resolution within 24 hours. You will be given the name and status of the person to whom your query/complaint has been referred.

Any dispute or difference that arises out of or in connection with the Contract shall be determined by the Independent Betting Adjudication Service (IBAS) whose ruling shall be binding. If, notwithstanding the above, the customer issues Court proceedings, Coral reserve the right to apply to stay those proceedings pending determination by the IBAS. If the customer fails or refuses to follow the ruling of the IBAS, the customer will reimburse all resulting expenses (including court fees) incurred by Coral.

Each-Way Betting

An Each Way bet is made up of 2 parts: the ‘Win' and the ‘Place'.

Each part is an equal stake, e.g. a £1 Each Way bet will have £1 on the ‘Win' and £1 on the ‘Place' (a total stake of £2).

The ‘Win' part of your bet is on your selection to win the event, and the ‘Place' part is on your selection to finish either first or in one of the pre-determined places.

If your selection wins, both the ‘Win' and ‘Place' parts of your bet will pay out. But if your selection only places, you will lose the ‘Win' part of your bet (and lose that part of the stake) but get paid out on the ‘Place'.

The odds for the ‘Place' are given as a fraction of the odds for the ‘Win' and will be displayed to you when you place your bet.

General Sport Betting Rules

Each-Way betting is most common in horse and greyhound racing, and is also usually available in other sports e.g. Football or Golf tournaments.

For Horse and Greyhound Racing, unless otherwise stated the ‘Place' part of Each Way bets will be given the following Place terms:

Non-Handicap Races

• 2 - 4 Runners Win Only
• 5 - 7 Runners 1/4 the Odds 1, 2
• 8 or more Runners 1/5 the Odds 1, 2, 3

Handicap Races

• 2 - 4 Runners Win Only
• 5 - 7 Runners 1/4 the Odds 1, 2
• 8 - 11 Runners 1/5 the Odds 1, 2, 3
• 12 - 15 Runners 1/4 the Odds 1, 2, 3
• 16 or more Runners 1/4 the Odds 1, 2, 3, 4

In other cases, including Horse Racing Ante Post, selected ‘feature’ Horse and Greyhound races, Football and Sports betting events, the Each Way ‘Place’ terms will be as advertised at the time the bet was placed.

Things to Consider

Please Note: Non-runners in a race can affect the Each-Way terms of your bet.

For example, if your bet is placed in an 8 runner race, and a horse later withdraws reducing the field to 7, the each-way terms will change from 1/5 odds first 3 places to 1/4 odds on the first 2 places only. Similarly, if a race is reduced from 5 runners to 4, the place terms will change from 1/4 odds for the first 2 places, to 'Win only'.

Enhanced Prices for Multiple Bets

Unless otherwise stated (onsite and/or within specific marketing) where special multiples are available (ie: Doubles, Trebles and upwards) the following rules will apply:

• Win bets only are accepted. Any Each Way bets taken in error will be settled to win.
• If any of the featured horses and greyhounds are non-runners all bets will be settled on the remaining selections at Starting Price (SP) unless it was an Ante Post bet on an all-in run or not basis then the bet will be a loser.
• For greyhounds If any non-runners or reserves are involved in the selected races, all bets placed prior to non runner will be settled at SP.

Football and All Other Sports

• Unless otherwise stated (onsite and/or within specific marketing), in the instance where one selection of an enhanced/price boosted multiple does not take place/participate or start (e.g. match abandoned) the bet will be voided and stakes returned to your account.

Errors

Coral make every effort to ensure that we do not make errors in accepting bets. However, if as a result of human error or system problems a bet is accepted at a price (which includes the odds, handicap provisions, and other terms and conditions or details of the bet) that is:

1. materially different from those available in the general market at the time the bet was made; or
2. clearly incorrect given the chance of the event occurring at the time the bet was made

After this, Coral will pay winnings at the correct price.

Where an incorrect handicap is displayed as a result of a technical or manual inputting error, we reserve the right to settle any affected bets at corrected odds to reflect those odds that would have been available had the incorrect handicap line been offered knowingly.

To establish the correct price Coral will consider prices available in the general market at the time the bet was made, including the prices offered by William Hill, Betfred, Bet Victor, Paddy Power and Bet365.

Examples of circumstances where this would apply are:

1. the price is recorded as 100-1 when the price on offer in the general market is 10-1
2. the margins for handicap betting have been reversed

If a bet is accepted in error by Coral on an event or outcome for which no Coral prices are available the bet will be void and your stake returned.

Any results, clocks or scores displayed on the site - for example during betting in play - are for guidance purposes only, and although we make every effort to ensure that this information is accurate, Coral accepts no liability should the displayed information be listed incorrectly.

Fraud

Coral will seek criminal and contractual sanctions against any customer involved in fraud, dishonesty or criminal acts. Coral will withhold payment to any customer where any of these are suspected.

The customer shall indemnify and shall be liable to pay to Coral, on demand, all costs, charges or losses sustained or incurred by Coral (including any direct, indirect or consequential losses, loss of profit and loss of reputation) arising directly or indirectly from the customer’s fraud, dishonesty or criminal act.

Maximum Payouts

The maximum daily payouts on any bet, or bets, including Ante Post, are as detailed below. The maximum payout limits apply to individual events. The limits below refer to the total return on the bet, excluding the original stake. If a multiple bet has been placed which involves events with different maximum payout limits, the lowest limit will apply.

All maximum payout limits apply to any one customer, or group of customers acting together, who have backed the same combination of selections, including where placed in a series of bets, at a range of prices, over a number of days using different betting accounts and/or across different betting channels. Should we have reason to believe that a number of bets have been placed this way, the total payment of all those bets combined will be limited to one single maximum payout.

Coral shall not be liable for any loss of profits, loss of anticipated savings, loss of goods, or any special, indirect, consequential or pure economic loss, costs, damages, charges or expenses.

Throughout these rules, ‘Full Service’ refers to horse and greyhound races for which full details (shows of betting, official off times and results) are broadcast to Coral and viewable in our shops by satellite and terrestrial media..

• First Past the Post: The immediate result after the race has been completed (see Exceptions below)
• Official Result: Announced at the 'weigh-in' on the day, after any Steward's Enquiries and/or objections have been considered. If a winner is disqualified after the official result is announced, the disqualification will not affect the settlement of bets.

Exceptions

The exceptions where First Past the Post does not apply and bets are only settled according to the official result are:

• A selection taking the wrong course
• A selection carrying the wrong weight or the jockey failing to weigh-in
• Any Ante Post bet
• A Forecast or Tricast bet
• A void race
• Any Tote/Pari-Mutuel bet
• A selection given as the winner in error by the judge
• A bet placed on a two-runner race or a special match bet
• A bet placed in a “without the favourite” or any other special market
• Aintree Grand National
• Any bet placed at the rails on a racecourse
• We pay FPP on UK & Irish racing ONLY - Horse racing bets placed on non-UK/Irish meetings are settled on the official result declared by the racecourse judge and confirmed by the ‘Weighed-In’ announcement. If a winner is disqualified after the official result is announced, the disqualification will not affect the settlement of bets.

Things to Consider

• This offer applies to winning single and multiple bets and the win part of Each-Way bets. There is no restriction on staking, and payouts are subject to our advertised Maximum Payout Limits.
• In the event of a double result, payout on the horse that was first past the post may be subject to a small delay while we process your winnings. The funds will be credited to your account as a manual adjustment.

In the case of Greyhound racing, bets are settled on the official result announced at the conclusion of the event. If a winner is disqualified after the official result is announced, the disqualification will not affect the settlement of bets.

In the case of Football and other Sports, bets are settled on the first result published by the official source/governing body or alternatively the official website of the relevant event, immediately after the match/event is finished. Any subsequent corrections or amendments to this result will not apply for settlement purposes.

If the result is not immediately available from the official source/governing body or the official website of the relevant event, or there is significant evidence that the official source/governing body or official website is incorrect, we will use independent sources such as Press Association to decide settlement.

In the absence of any consistent, independent evidence or in the presence of significant conflicting evidence, bets will be settled based on our own statistics.

Special Bets

We will sometimes offer special betting opportunities, for which the rules are not covered specifically in these Rules. In these instances, we will display the additional terms/rules in the text description that relates to the opportunity on the website, and bets will be settled accordingly.

Fixed Price Enhanced Multiple Bets

• An enhanced multiple bet is a win single only selection at a fixed price.
• In the event of a Dead Heat, selections will be settled as an SP (starting price)/ Standard Price accumulative bet with Dead Heat rules applied.
• All bets are struck at selection level e.g. Enhanced Jockey Multiples: in the instance a different jockey is declared to ride, the bet will stand on the horses selected not the Jockey.
• Horse Racing enhanced multiple bets - If a different jockey is declared to ride, the bet will stand on the horses selected.
• Where an enhanced multiple has selections affected by the withdrawal of another selection/s in a Racing market, selections may be settled as an SP (starting price) accumulative bet and a rule 4 deduction may be applied. (standard rule 4 deductions apply)
• Football enhanced multiple bets apply to 90 minutes only i.e. never include extra time.
• US Sports enhanced multiple bets Overtime and extra innings count.
• Standard trading rules will be applied to all variants/markets within the enhanced multiple.

Voids

If a selection in a single bet is made void the stake will be returned.

Void selections in multiple/accumulator bets will be treated as non-runners and the stake will run onto the remaining selections in the bet.

Withholding payment and our right to set off liability

We reserve the right to withhold payment and to declare bets on an event void if we have evidence that the following has occurred:

1. the integrity of the event has been called into question
2. the price(s) or pool has been manipulated
3. match rigging has taken place

Evidence of the above may be based on the size, volume or pattern of bets placed with us across any or all of our betting channels. A decision given by the relevant governing body of the sport in question (if any) will be conclusive. If any customer owes any money to Coral for any reason, we have the right to take that into account before making any payments to that customer.
