 Prizes, including top prizes, are subject to availability at the time of purchase.

 9. Retailer incentive awards: The Lottery may conduct a separate Retailer Incentive Program for retailers who sell Double Your Dollars instant lottery game tickets.

 10. Retailer bonus: The Lottery may offer a retailer bonus in connection with the sale of Pennsylvania instant lottery game tickets. If a retailer bonus is offered, a Lottery retailer shall be eligible for a bonus as described in this section. Lottery retailers who sell a winning ticket that entitles the ticket holder to a prize, either payable in a single installment or having a guaranteed minimum payout, of at least $100,000 and not exceeding $500,000 shall be paid a bonus of $500.

A bonus will not be awarded to a Lottery retailer that sells a non-winning Pennsylvania Lottery instant ticket used to enter a Pennsylvania Lottery second-chance drawing or promotion that is subsequently selected to win a prize.

 11. Unclaimed prize money: For a period of 1 year from the announced close of the Double Your Dollars, prize money from winning Double Your Dollars instant lottery game tickets will be retained by the Secretary for payment to the persons entitled thereto.
