The Emburse Champion Awards program, as described herein, focuses on recognizing thoughtful summaries of impactful or meaningful business experiences and is, therefore, a contest for skill and not for chance (the “Program”). Chance plays no part in determining which nominations will be selected by Emburse. Each nomination will be reviewed by an appointed committee of Emburse employees, no later than the end of Q2 2024, on its merits based on the content in relation to the specific award category or categories identified within the nomination submission. The decisions made by Emburse regarding all aspects of this contest will be final and binding. Further, the Program, subject to applicable law, is available only to current Emburse business customers as of the time of award selection (“Customers”). Customers may nominate themselves and/or their team for up to three Emburse Champion Awards. The nominations selected by Emburse to receive an award will receive a prize package of items via mail (“Rewards”). In lieu of accepting Rewards, Customers may request that Emburse make a donation equivalent to the value of the Rewards to a charity approved by Emburse. It is the Customer’s sole responsibility to abide by any applicable company policy, applicable law, and/or disclosure requirement(s). Customers are also responsible for all applicable taxes, assessments, levies and/or similar amounts imposed by governmental authorities.

By participating in the Program, Customers agree that Emburse may use any part of the nomination submissions to create market-facing testimonial content in digital and/or print format, and attribute testimonial content to the Customer name, title, company name, and company logo. Emburse may summarize and/or expand upon Customers’ application responses to create helpful and clear content. Before publishing or publicizing any Customer nomination submission, Emburse will first share all drafted content with Customers for written approval.
