NOTE.] (2) No Winners: If there are no valid winning Megabucks tickets for a specific prize category in any given drawing, all monies allocated for that prize category shall be carried forward and accumulated with the monies allocated for that prize category for the next drawing. This process shall continue until such time as there is one or more valid winning ticket(s) for the Grand prize category. (3) Termination of Game: If the Oregon Megabucks game is terminated for any reason whatsoever, any prizes which were not won shall be reallocated by the Director. Any prizes which were won but not claimed within the specified claim period shall be forfeited and allocated to the benefit of the public purpose. The transfer shall take place at the same time the Lottery’s next scheduled transfer of proceeds is made. [ED. NOTE: Tables referenced are available from the agency.] [ED.
