3. FIRST LEVEL

3.1 First Level Conditions
(a). In order to compete in the First Level for the opportunity to be selected for the Main Level, all of the required registration criteria must be satisfied. Participants must fulfil these conditions at the time of registration:

1. Participants must use the official registration form provided on the website. No other form of registration is acceptable,
2. For the duration of the Game, as defined in Annex 1 (Timeline), Participants can not be employees, apprentices, trainees, or interns of Deutsche Post, nor have contractual relations or a contractual relationship with Deutsche Post, nor be a family member of a Deutsche Post employee, trainee apprentice or intern.
3. Participants who are in the process of being recruited for a job, an apprenticeship, traineeship, or internship at Deutsche Post are permitted to play the Game. If subsequently employed as an employee, apprentice, trainee, intern or in another capacity at Deutsche Post, the Participant will be immediately disqualified from the simulation from the date of the Participant's acceptance of the relevant offer of employment,
4. Participants must accept the online Rules and Conditions,
5. Participants under the age of consent, as determined by their law of domicile, must have their parent's or guardian's consent to accept these Rules and Conditions and their parent's or guardian's consent to partake in the Game,
6. Participation in the Game does not provide in any circumstances any right, interest or expectation of contractual relations with Deutsche Post, and participation in particular can not be considered to give rise to a right, interest or expectation of any form of employment agreement.

(b). Deutsche Post reserves the right to disqualify any Participant, without reason, regardless of whether all of the Registration Criteria are fulfilled.

(c). Deutsche Post reserves the exclusive right to amend the timeline, timeframes and duration of all aspects of the Game without warning or agreement from Participants. Should such amendment or modification occur, it will be duly published on the website www.dhl-discoverlogistics.com.

3.2 Playing the First Level
(a). Once a Participant has satisfied the registration criteria and duly registered they are able to compete in the First Level. The First Level can be played from May 01, 2008 to July 12, 2008, a period of ten weeks (refer to Annex 1, Timeline). Entry into the First Level is open; however participation is subject to the restrictions stipulated in 3.1(a). Eligibility for the Main and Final Level is restricted. Refer to section 4.1, Eligibility for the Main Level, for further details.

(b). The First Level comprises seven decision rounds each representing a six month period. During the online phase of the First Level, a Participant can play the First Level as many times as they wish. However, only the score of the most recently completed game is saved for the purpose of Main Level eligibility. Therefore, Participants are warned that should they decide to replay the First Level, the previous score is lost and only their most recent score is saved. The First Level must be completed for a score to be generated.

(c). Participants will require approximately a total of three to four hours to complete the entire First Level. This timeframe is a guideline only, and Participants are advised to investigate how long they will require to complete the First Level. However, Participants can save their progress in the First Level at any time and return later to complete the Level. Deutsche Post will endeavour to ensure that the save mechanism functions reliably. However, Deutsche Post takes no responsibility and bears no liability for any errors or malfunctioning of the save mechanism.

3.3 Bi-weekly Winners
(a). In each other week during the online period of the First Level, a bi-weekly winner will be determined and promoted in the Discover Logistics newsletter, and the winner will receive a prize. Winners will be determined by the achieved score according to the Game scorecard which considers factors such as financial and operational performance and sustainability.

4. MAIN LEVEL

4.1 Eligibility for the Main Level
(a). At the end of the First Level, Deutsche Post will determine the winners of the First Level.

(b). Eligibility to compete in the Main Level is restricted. Only Participants satisfying either of the following criteria are eligible for selection for the Main Level:

1. the Participant is at the time of registration a full time tertiary student in a registered tertiary education provider, or
2. the Participant is a person who has completed their tertiary education within the last five years.

(c). Additional Participant information must be provided in a second registration stage, as specified in 4.2. A Participant who does not fulfil either of the criteria stated above is not eligible for the Main Level Competition. Deutsche Post reserves the right to deny any Participant eligibility for the Main Level.

4.2 Main Level Registration
(a). At the end of the First Level, Participants who are invited to partake in the Main Level will receive an email requesting - if interested in competing in the Main Level - to logon to the website www.dhl-discoverlogistics.com with their login data and provide the following additional information:

1. a contact telephone number
2. the Participant's current residential address, including street, city and country and zip code and state or province where applicable
3. the name of the university enrolled in for the degree specified
4. the Participant's graduation date, actual or planned

This information may be required for travel and visa arrangements and in any event must be accurate and honest. Dishonest, inaccurate or misleading information supplied intentionally or otherwise will result in disqualification. Deutsche Post reserves the right to verify the validity of the information provided by Participants at the time of the Registration and at any time during the Game and to request copies of any documentation necessary to verify the validity of such information. Whether the documentation is deemed to verify such information is at the sole discretion of Deutsche Post.

Participants who fulfil the specified criteria and have successfully completed the Main Level registration may be selected for the Main Level competition or for the Main Level waiting list.

If a Participant is unable to compete in the Main Level for whatever reason, or fails to complete their profile according to the criteria specified in 4.2.(a) within the Main Level registration period, they will be disqualified from the Main Level. The next ranked Participant from their region will be contacted to replace the disqualified Participant.

4.3 Main Level Selection Process
(a). The Participants' First Level performance in each region is evaluated through a Game scorecard which considers factors such as financial and operational performance and sustainability. Out of each region, the highest scoring participants from the First Level will be invited to participate in the Main Level. These participants must fulfil the conditions stipulated in 4.1 to compete in the Main Level. There is no right of legal claim or challenge to the eligibility process or any amendment thereto.

4.4 Main Level Participation
(a). If a Player has been selected to participate in the Main Level, an email will be sent to the Participant informing them of their eligibility. Players who do not directly enter the Main Level may be selected for a position on the waiting list and have the chance to enter the Main Level if another Player drops out.

4.5 Main Level Teams
(a). Once the Main Level selection phase is complete (refer to Annex 1), Participants will be assigned into geographically representative Teams of five Participants each. Deutsche Post is solely responsible for the process of assigning Participants into Teams, and the decision can not be appealed or challenged. Participants have no input whatsoever into the formation of the Teams. Each team will have approximately a comparable total average score, e.g. as a cumulative total from the First Level. Deutsche Post will endeavour to create geographically diverse Teams. Ideally, this means one Participant from each region and no more than two Participants from one region. However, as the number of Participants and their geographical origin is uncertain, Deutsche Post reserves the right to create Teams as they see fit. Each Team will compete against nine other Teams in a defined market.

4.6 Test Round
(a). Once Teams have been assigned (refer to Annex 1), the Teams will play a test round. Teams will be grouped into lots of ten, and the test round will provide the opportunity to become familiar with the simulation, other Team members, and the organization of the Team. The organization, communication, and work of the Team is the Team's sole responsibility. Deutsche Post takes no responsibility for the organization, communication, work, or any other aspect of the Teams. The test round will last for six days, refer to Annex 1, during which the Team may decide that they are unable to work together. In this case, the entire Team will be disqualified and replaced by a new Team from the First Level Participants.

(b). To prevent Teams from drawing conclusions from the test round, especially about their competition, each Team will be reassigned in newly formed lots of ten to a new market before the Main Level begins.

4.7 Inactivity/Quitting
(a). If a Team member fails to login during the test round, or quits, or is inactive between the first and fourth period, the Team can request a replacement member from the same region. Replacing a Team member is not an automatic process, and to do so Teams must contact the simulation support. The decision whether to replace a Team member is at the sole discretion of Deutsche Post, and such a decision can not be challenged.

(b). A Team will be dismissed from the Game if the number of active members is below three. To remain active, a Participant must log into the Game each week. A Participant becomes inactive when they fail to log in for one calendar week. Deutsche Post takes no responsibility for computer or internet problems and it is the Teams' responsibility to ensure that they remain active. Deutsche Post reserves the right not to disqualify teams in which a team member has a legitimate reason to leave their team, as long as there are at least three team members continuing the Game. The reasons considered as legitimate by Deutsche Post are pregnancy, act of God, or hospitalization.

4.8 Playing the Main Level
(a). The Main Level covers a period of seven weeks, from August 06, 2008 to September 23, 2008 (refer to Annex 1). Each week corresponds to one year of business; seven weeks reflect seven years of simulated business. Each week (simulated year), Teams can take six days to make and submit their decisions (refer to Annex 1). On the seventh day of each week, the Teams' decisions will be processed. Once a Team has submitted their decisions, the decisions can not be altered or modified, nor can the week's decisions be resubmitted.

(b). Each Team is responsible for agreeing on the way they want to enter decisions. Each team member can enter any decision or alter decisions that have been entered by other team members up to the weekly deadline.

4.9 Main Level Decisions
(a). Decisions for each week must be submitted by the weekly deadline (refer to Annex 1). To ensure Participants are aware of an upcoming deadline, an automatic email will be sent to all Teams 24 hours before the week's deadline, reminding them to submit their decisions. This email will be sent to the Participants' email addresses provided at registration. Deutsche Post bears no responsibility and no liability for the sending and receipt of this email. Teams bear the sole responsibility for ensuring that their decisions are submitted before the deadline passes. Once decisions have been submitted by all Teams, the results of all Teams and markets are calculated and made available.

(b). Teams are forbidden to communicate with each other at any stage of the Game about any aspect of the Game, in particular but not limited to their strategy or any specific information concerning the Teams' decisions.

4.10 Late Decisions
(a). If a Team fails to submit their decisions before the weekly deadline, an additional period of 12 hours is available for Teams to submit their week's decisions. This late submission deadline will be communicated to Teams via email. Deutsche Post bears no responsibility and no liability for the sending and receipt of this email. Teams bear the sole responsibility for ensuring that their decisions are submitted before the deadline lapses. If a Team submits their decisions within this 12 hour timeframe, a certain amount of ?extraordinary expenditure' will be applied to the Team's company, as a penalty for late submission. The actual amount applied will be determined by the respective company's revenues and profit. This amount will be displayed in the company's Financial Report in the subsequent period.

(b). If a Team fails to submit their decisions within the additional 12 hour period, the Team will no longer be able to submit decisions for that week. In this case, the decisions from the previous week will automatically be used for the current week. Regardless of the circumstances, no decision can be submitted, received or considered once the extended deadline has passed.

5. FINAL LEVEL

5.1 Final Level Description
(a). The Final Level includes an invitation to the finalists to travel to the locations Berlin and Bonn, Germany.

(c). Deutsche Post undertakes to pay for the economy airfare or other reasonable travel expenses of each Participant invited to the Final Level and their accommodation expenses for the duration of the Final Level.

The Teams will be required to demonstrate business acumen, creativity and ability to think strategically by working together and developing solutions to lead their company to sustainable success. Depending on the teams' demonstrated skills to develop those solutions, a multidisciplinary Jury will rate each team's performance. Based on the Jury's observations and judgement, the three best Teams will be selected as winners. Each member of these teams who has been personally present in the Final Level will be awarded with a prize.
In addition, based on their observations, the Jury will decide on the best overall individual player out of all teams. This individual will be awarded with a special prize.

5.3 Intellectual Property
(a). All Participants in the Final Level agree to cede their intellectual property in any of the content, solutions, concepts, or ideas they develop for the Final Level of the competition to Deutsche Post.

On the other, we use "permanent cookies" for retaining information about visitors who repeatedly access one of our internet pages. The purpose of using cookies is to be able to offer you optimal user guidance as well as to "recognize" you. The content of a permanent cookie is limited to an identification number.
