The decisions of the Sponsor as to the administration and operation of the Sweepstakes, the selection of the Potential Winners, and all other matters pertaining to this Sweepstakes shall be final and binding in Sponsor’s sole discretion. Winning a Prize is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements set forth herein. For the avoidance of doubt, any references in these Official Rules to Entrants shall also include the Entrants who are deemed Winners (as defined below).

5. HOW TO ENTER: No purchase or payment is required to be entered in the Sweepstakes or to win a Prize. The Sweepstakes begins at 12:00:01 a.m. Eastern Time (“ET”) on August 3, 2026 and ends at 11:59:59 p.m. ET on November 10, 2026 (“Sweepstakes Period”). The Sponsor’s database computer is the official time-keeping device for the Sweepstakes.

Eligible Entrants may earn Entries (each an “Entry” or collectively, “Entries”) during each Entry Period (as defined below) by using either Method 1 or Method 2 below. Each completed submission will earn one (1) Entry. For purposes of these Official Rules, “Entry” means a completed submission by an Entrant through either Method 1 or Method 2 that satisfies the requirements set forth herein. Sponsor will assign each Entry to the Entry Period in which the Entry is actually received (based on Sponsor’s official time-keeping device).

The Sweepstakes Period will be divided into ten (10) entry periods (each an “Entry Period”) as follows. Each Entry Period will have a separate drawing as described in Section 6.

Method 1: Review Entry
During the Sweepstakes Period, Entrants can enter the Sweepstakes by submitting a product review through the online registration form linked from https://www.stihlusa.com (the “Review Website”). No purchase is necessary to submit a review or to enter. The registration form on the Review Website will require Entrants to provide their nickname, email address, and a written review of a STIHL product.

To be eligible, the review must: (a) be submitted during the Sweepstakes Period; (b) be the Entrant’s own original work and reflect the Entrant’s honest and genuine opinion based on actual experience with the product or service being reviewed; (c) be written in English; (d) not contain any content that is obscene, offensive, defamatory, threatening, harassing, discriminatory, or otherwise inappropriate as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion; (e) not contain any personally identifiable information of any third party; (f) not infringe upon or violate any third party’s intellectual property rights, rights of privacy or publicity, or any other applicable rights; and (g) comply with any additional content requirements or submission guidelines presented on the Review Website. Reviews that do not meet the foregoing requirements may be rejected and will not be eligible for Entry into the Sweepstakes. Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to reject, edit, or remove any review that Sponsor determines does not comply with these requirements or is otherwise inappropriate. By submitting a review, Entrant grants Sponsor and the Released Parties a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sub-licensable, and transferable license to use, reproduce, display, distribute, publish, modify, adapt, translate, and create derivative works of the submitted review, in whole or in part, in any and all media now known or hereafter devised, for any purpose, including but not limited to advertising, marketing, and promotional purposes, without further compensation, notice to, or approval by Entrant. Entrant acknowledges and agrees that Sponsor is under no obligation to use or publish any review and may remove any review at any time for any reason. Entrant further acknowledges and agrees that, because the submission of a review in connection with this Sweepstakes constitutes a material connection under the Federal Trade Commission’s (“FTC”) Endorsement Guides (16 C.F.R. Part 255), any review that is published by Sponsor or by Entrant in connection with this Sweepstakes must include a clear and conspicuous disclosure of the Entrant’s participation in this Sweepstakes (e.g., “I received an entry in a sweepstakes in exchange for this review”). Entrant is solely responsible for ensuring that any review posted or shared by Entrant includes appropriate disclosures as required by applicable law. Upon Sponsor’s receipt of a fully completed and submitted registration form (including a review that meets the eligibility requirements set forth above), the Entrant will receive one (1) Entry into the Sweepstakes for the applicable Entry Period.

Method 2: Alternative Method of Entry (“AMOE”)
Alternatively, Entrants can also enter the Sweepstakes without providing a product review by visiting the online entry form at https://app.viralsweep.com/sweeps/full/19b4c3-229758?framed=1 (the “Online Form Website” and, together with the Review Website, the “Websites”), and entering their full name, email address, a valid telephone number, and date of birth. Upon Sponsor’s receipt of a fully completed and submitted AMOE entry, the Entrant will receive one (1) Entry into the Sweepstakes for the applicable Entry Period.

Entry Limitations and Conditions
There is no limit on the number of Entries an Entrant may submit per Entry Period, regardless of method of entry. Incomplete Entries are void. Entrants are not permitted to use any third-party organization to assist with the entry process in any way (as determined by the Administrator). Proof of entry information at the Websites is not considered proof of delivery to or receipt by Sponsor of an entry.

Entries made by any other individual or any entity, and/or originating at any other website or email address, including but not limited to commercial Sweepstakes subscription notification and/or entering service sites, will be declared invalid and disqualified for this Sweepstakes. The use of automated entry devices is prohibited, and no mechanically reproduced entries are allowed; all such Entries are void. Entry materials or data that have been tampered, altered, photocopied, or mechanically reproduced or from unauthorized channels are not eligible and will be void.

Entries must be manual key-stroked by the Entrant. The use of any automated, mechanically produced, forged, robotic, repetitive, programmed, software-generated, or similar Entry method or program will result in disqualification.

All Entries become the exclusive property of the Sponsor and will not be acknowledged or returned. All information submitted by Entrants will be treated according to Sponsor’s Privacy Policy, available at https://www.stihlusa.com/about-stihl/corporate/legal/privacy-policy/. By participating in the Sweepstakes and providing any personal contact information, Entrants hereby agree to Sponsor’s collection and usage of their personal information and acknowledge that they have read and accepted Sponsor’s Privacy Policy.

At the time of Entry, Entrants will be given the option to opt in to receive emails from Sponsor about this Sweepstakes and other promotions and information about Sponsor and its products and services. Opting in or opting out of receiving such emails will have no effect on an Entrant’s eligibility to participate in or win the Sweepstakes. All emails from the Sponsor will contain an unsubscribe/opt-out option, and Entrants may unsubscribe at any time without affecting their Sweepstakes Entry or eligibility.

Notwithstanding any opt-in or opt-out election, Sponsor (and or its designees, representatives, or agencies on behalf of Sponsor) may send Entrants transactional or relationship communications related to the administration of the Sweepstakes (e.g., Entry confirmations, Notifications, and requests for Prize Claim Documents). Sponsor will honor opt-out requests in accordance with applicable law.

For purposes of these Official Rules, a calendar “day” is defined as any twenty-four (24) hour period beginning at 12:00 a.m. ET and ending twenty-four (24) hours later at 11:59 p.m. ET, unless specified otherwise. A “business day” is defined as any day other than a Saturday, Sunday, or a U.S. federal legal holiday. All Entries that are received after the end of the applicable Entry Period will not be included in the drawing for that Entry Period.

6. DRAWINGS, NOTIFICATION, AND ODDS:

Selection of Winners
The potential prize Winner(s) (each, a “Potential Winner”) will be selected in ten (10) random drawings (one drawing per Entry Period) conducted by the Sponsor and/or Administrator, whose decisions are final and binding. Each drawing will be conducted from among all eligible Entries received during the applicable Entry Period, and the number of Potential Winners to be selected (and the Prize(s) to be awarded) will be as set forth in Section 7. Each Prize drawing will be conducted on or about the 5th day following the conclusion of each Entry Period. Each Potential Winner is subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with these Official Rules. Upon Sponsor’s verification and receipt of all required Prize Claim Documents (as defined below), a Potential Winner will be deemed a “Winner.” Entries do not carry over into subsequent Entry Periods.

Odds
Odds of winning a Prize will depend on the total number of eligible Entries received during the applicable Entry Period.

Winner Notification
The Potential Winners will each be contacted by the Sponsor and/or its designee or representative via email at the email address provided on their Entry form within 5 business days from the time the Potential Winner is selected (the “Notification”). Notification is deemed to have occurred immediately upon the sending of the email by Sponsor to the Potential Winner. The Potential Winner must respond within 3 business days with his/her contact information needed for verification purposes.

If a Potential Winner does not respond to the Notification within 3 business days, at Sponsor’s sole discretion, an alternate Potential Winner may be selected by Sponsor at random from among all remaining eligible Entries received for the applicable Entry Period.

Sponsor is not responsible for changes to an Entrant’s email address or contact information that may interfere with Notification, including but not limited to suspended or discontinued Internet service, spam or junk-mail filtering, or any other reason which may result in a Potential Winner not receiving the Notification. Sponsor shall have no liability for any Notification that is lost, damaged, delayed, garbled, illegible, incomplete, misdirected, undelivered, intercepted, or otherwise not received by a Potential Winner for any reason.

In the event of a dispute regarding the identity of the person submitting the Entry, the “Authorized Account Holder” of the email address used to enter this Sweepstakes (at the time of Entry) will be deemed to be the Entrant. For purposes of these Official Rules, the “Authorized Account Holder” is defined as the natural person who is assigned to an email address by an Internet access provider, online service provider, or other organization (e.g., business, educational institution, etc.) that is responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted email address. In the event such a dispute regarding the identity of the person who actually completed and submitted the Entry cannot be resolved to Sponsor’s satisfaction, the affected Entry will be deemed ineligible.

After Sponsor receives the fully and accurately completed and properly executed Prize Claim Documents (if required) and Sponsor has verified eligibility, such Potential Winner will be deemed a “Winner,” and Sponsor will arrange to deliver the Prize to the Winner. The Winner should allow 6 to 8 weeks from Notification for delivery of the Prize. The Prize will be delivered by Sponsor at no cost to the Winner. The Prize is awarded subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with these Official Rules.

The Prizes, the number of Winners to be selected for each Prize, and the applicable Entry Period(s) (or drawing(s)) are set forth below (the “Prize Schedule”).

Sponsor reserves the right to substitute a Prize, or a portion thereof, with a prize of comparable or greater value, at its sole discretion. Sponsor is not responsible for lost, misplaced, or stolen Prizes.

8. GENERAL PRIZE CONDITIONS: By submitting an Entry, you warrant that all of the information provided as part of your Entry is accurate, does not violate any third party’s legal rights (including without limitation rights of privacy and publicity), and otherwise does not violate applicable law.

Each Winner shall be solely responsible for all federal, state, and local taxes, and the reporting consequences thereof. All other expenses associated with claiming the Prize, Prize acceptance, and Prize usage not specifically mentioned herein are the responsibility of the Winner.

In the event that: (a) a Potential Winner declines the Prize; (b) a Prize or Notification is returned as rejected, faulty, unclaimed, or undeliverable to such Potential Winner; (c) a Potential Winner cannot be reached, does not reply, or does not comply with the Notification instructions within the time period specified in the Notification; (d) a Potential Winner is not in compliance with these Official Rules; (e) a Potential Winner is found to be ineligible; (f) a Potential Winner refuses to sign or fails to return the fully completed and signed Prize Claim Documents to Sponsor within the time period specified in the Notification; (g) a Potential Winner submits falsified or fraudulent Prize Claim Documents; or (h) Sponsor is otherwise unable to notify a Potential Winner that they have been selected for any reason beyond the Sponsor’s control, then such person shall be disqualified, the Prize will be forfeited, and, at Sponsor’s sole discretion, an alternate Potential Winner will be selected by Sponsor at random from among all remaining eligible Entries received for the applicable Entry Period.

In the event that any error, mistake, failure, or discrepancy causes more than the stated number of Prizes as set forth in these Official Rules to be promoted, noticed, or claimed, Sponsor may award only the stated number of Prizes by having the Administrator conduct a random drawing from among all legitimate, unawarded, eligible Prize claims.

9.

If the Sweepstakes is terminated before the designated end date of the Sweepstakes Period, Sponsor will (if possible and in its sole discretion) select the Potential Winner(s) in a random drawing from all eligible, non-suspect Entries received as of the date of the Force Majeure event giving rise to the termination. Inclusion in such drawing will be each Entrant’s sole and exclusive remedy under such circumstances.

Accordingly, each Winner hereby waives any objection to such use including without limitation, distribution, reproduction, creation of derivative works of, public performance, or display of their Entry, and any claim for compensation whatsoever in connection therewith. Such waiver shall also include any claim for infringement of any so-called “Moral Right” or similar right or interest.

13.

IF ARBITRATION IS CHOSEN BY ANY PARTY WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM, NEITHER PARTY WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE THAT CLAIM IN COURT OR HAVE A JURY TRIAL ON THAT CLAIM.

No arbitration award or decision will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute with anyone who is not a named party to the arbitration.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages; therefore, such exclusions may not apply to you. Notwithstanding any other provision in these Official Rules and without waiving either party’s right to appeal such decision, should any portion of this provision be deemed invalid or unenforceable, then the entire provision (other than this sentence) shall not apply.

15. CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE § 1542 WAIVER: To the extent permissible under applicable law, by participating in this Sweepstakes, each Entrant expressly waives and relinquishes all rights and benefits afforded by California Civil Code § 1542 and any similar law of any state or territory of the USA.

16. SEVERABILITY: The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of these Official Rules will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision. If any provision of the Official Rules is determined to be invalid, prohibited by law, or otherwise unenforceable, the other provisions will remain in effect and will be construed as if the invalid or unenforceable provision were not contained herein.

17. MISCELLANEOUS: These Official Rules contain the full and complete understanding with respect to the Sweepstakes and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations, and understandings, whether oral or written, between Sponsor, the Administrator, and the Released Parties regarding this Sweepstakes. In the event of an inconsistency between these Official Rules and any disclosure or other statement contained in any Sweepstakes-related materials, including without limitation, an entry form or any point-of-sale, radio, television, print, or online advertising, these Official Rules will prevail and govern.

The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of these Official Rules, and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof. No amendment to, or waiver of, any provision of these Official Rules shall be effective unless in writing and signed by Sponsor and the Administrator. The waiver by Sponsor or the Administrator of any provision of these Official Rules shall not constitute a waiver of any other provision herein.

The rights and obligations hereunder may not be assigned by Entrant, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Sponsor, and any attempted assignment in violation of the foregoing shall be null and void. These Official Rules shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the permitted successors and assigns of Sponsor, the Administrator, and Entrant.

When terms such as “may” are used in these Official Rules, the Sponsor has sole and absolute determination and discretion. By participating in the Sweepstakes, Entrant hereby agrees to waive any rights to claim ambiguity of the Official Rules. Sponsor reserves the right to change, alter, or amend these Official Rules as necessary, in its sole determination, to ensure the fair administration of the Sweepstakes or to comply with applicable law; provided, however, that no such amendment shall materially alter the eligibility requirements, Prize value, or odds of winning to the detriment of Entrants who have already submitted entries, unless required by applicable law or regulation.
