Contest Period

The Contest begins at 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time (“ET”) on September 2, 2026 and ends at 11:59 a.m. ET on September 2, 2027 or when the winning answer has been successfully received by Sponsor as determined by it, and as described herein, whichever occurs first (the “Contest Period”).

How It Works

The goal of the Contest is to be the first person to solve a puzzle at the Contest Website (the “Puzzle”). During the Contest Period, watch the Contest video published on @MrBeast2 on YouTube.com on September 2, 2026 (the “Video”). Clues to solving the Puzzle will be available in the Video. Once you have the answer, go to https://puzzle-video-sweepstakes.mrbeast.app (the “Website”) and follow the on-screen instructions to provide your answer to the Puzzle along with your email address.

The first correct answer submitted to Sponsor during the Contest Period via the Website, if any, as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion, will win the Grand Prize, subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with these Official Rules.

TO WIN YOU MUST BE THE FIRST PERSON TO SUBMIT THE ANSWER TO SPONSOR 100% CORRECTLY AS DETERMINED BY SPONSOR IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION. POSTING OF THE ANSWER ON PUBLIC OR PRIVATE CHANNELS WITHOUT SUBMITTING THE ANSWER ALONG WITH YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS TO SPONSOR SHALL NOT ENTITLE YOU TO ANY PRIZE.

YOU ARE NOT A WINNER OF THE GRAND PRIZE EVEN IF YOU HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED THAT YOU SUBMITTED THE CORRECT ANSWER UNTIL VERIFICATION IS COMPLETE AND YOU HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED THAT YOU ARE THE CONFIRMED WINNER. If participating via a smartphone device, standard data rates may apply.

Any potential winner will be contacted by Sponsor and will be required to respond to the notification (as stated within the notification) to verify their eligibility and claim the prize. Any potential winner must execute a declaration of eligibility and liability/publicity release (collectively, the “Winner Documents”) and must provide, sign and return applicable tax documents as directed by Sponsor. If a potential winner cannot be reached, or in the event of noncompliance with these Official Rules, or if prize notification is returned as undeliverable, such potential winner will be disqualified and, at Sponsor’s sole discretion, an alternate potential winner will be contacted based on the second person to submit the Answer in accordance with these Official Rules. In the event the correct answer is not provided to Sponsor as outlined herein, in its sole discretion, the Grand Prize will not be awarded.

Waiver, Release, and Limitation of Liability

EACH ENTRANT ACCEPTS THE CONDITIONS STATED IN THESE OFFICIAL RULES, AGREES TO BE BOUND BY THE DECISIONS OF THE SPONSOR, WARRANTS THAT THEY ARE ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS CONTEST, AND AGREE TO RELEASE, INDEMNIFY, AND HOLD HARMLESS CONTEST ENTITIES, AND THEIR PERSONNEL FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, LOSSES, LIABILITY, AND DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND EXPENSES) ASSERTED AGAINST ANY OF THEM, INCURRED OR SUSTAINED IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF ENTRANT’S PARTICIPATION IN THIS CONTEST, BREACH OF ANY AGREEMENT OR WARRANTY ASSOCIATED WITH THE CONTEST, INCLUDING THESE OFFICIAL RULES. ANY ATTEMPT TO DELIBERATELY DAMAGE ANY WEBSITE OR UNDERMINE THE LEGITIMATE OPERATION OF THE CONTEST IS A VIOLATION OF CRIMINAL AND CIVIL LAWS AND, SHOULD SUCH AN ATTEMPT BE MADE, THE CONTEST ENTITIES AND EACH OF THEIR LICENSEES RESERVE THE RIGHT TO SEEK ANY AND ALL REMEDIES AVAILABLE FROM ANY SUCH PERSON(S) RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY SUCH ATTEMPT TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

Entrants further agree that the Contest Entities are not responsible for the following: (a) electronic transmissions, or notifications that are lost, late, stolen, incomplete, damaged, garbled, destroyed, misdirected or not received by Sponsor or its agents for any reason; (b) any problems or technical malfunctions, errors, omissions, interruptions, deletions, defects, delays in operation or transmission, communication failures and/or human error that may occur in the transmission, receipt or processing of potential winner or related materials; or for destruction of or unauthorized access to, or alteration of, participation, or related material; (c) failed or unavailable hardware, network, software or telephone transmissions, damage to Entrants’ or any person’s property, including but not limited to Entrant’s computer, phone, hardware, or software, which injury or damage may be caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, from Entrant's participation in the Contest; (d) causes that jeopardize the administration, security, fairness, integrity, or proper conduct of this Contest; (e) any printing errors in these Official Rules or in any advertisements or correspondence in connection with this Contest; and (f) any injury or damage.

Should any portion of the Contest be, in Sponsor’s sole opinion, compromised by non-authorized human intervention or other causes including but not limited to war, strikes, health crisis, epidemic, pandemic, civil disturbances, work stoppage, and/or acts of God, which, in the sole opinion of the Sponsor, corrupt or impair the administration, security, fairness or proper play, or posting of submissions, Sponsor reserves the right at its sole discretion to suspend, modify or terminate the Contest.

General Conditions

By participating, each Entrant fully and unconditionally agrees to and accepts these Official Rules and the decisions of Sponsor, which are final and binding in all matters related to the Contest. Contest Entities reserve the right, in their sole discretion, to disqualify any individual it found to be tampering with the operation of the Contest or to be acting in violation of these Official Rules, or in an unsportsmanlike or disruptive manner. For the avoidance of doubt, Sponsor and Winning Streamer have no obligation to monitor behavior. Entrants agree to release and hold harmless Contest Entities from any claims, actions, injury, liability, loss or damage of any kind resulting from participating in this Contest or from the acceptance or use of any prize awarded.

Governing Law

To the fullest extent permitted by law, all issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of these Official Rules or the rights and obligations of Entrants or Sponsor and/or Contest Entities in connection with the Contest shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, USA without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions that would cause the application of any other state’s laws.

Mandatory Informal Dispute Resolution Process

If an Entrant has a “Dispute” (as defined below) with Sponsor relating to this Contest, they shall first provide Sponsor with written notice (“Notice”) sent to the following address MrBeastYouTube, LLC, 740 Greenville Blvd., Greenville, NC 27858 ATTN: Legal Department. A Notice must include all of the following: (1) a detailed description of the Dispute; (2) the nature and basis of the claim(s); (3) the nature and basis of the specific relief sought and a detailed calculation for that relief; and (4) information sufficient for Sponsor to evaluate your claim. Any Notice you submit must be signed by you. You and we agree to negotiate in good faith in an effort to resolve any Dispute. This should lead to resolution, but if for some reason the Dispute is not resolved satisfactorily within sixty (60) days after receipt of a compliant Notice, you and we agree to the further dispute resolution provisions below. Both you and we agree that this informal dispute resolution process is mandatory and a condition precedent that must be satisfied before initiating any formal dispute resolution proceeding. Any applicable statute of limitations will be tolled for sixty (60) days from the time a fully compliant Notice is served on the other party unless the parties mutually agree to extend that period.

Binding Individual Arbitration

You agree that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for any and all disputes, actions, claims, or other controversies between you and Sponsor that cannot be resolved informally and that relate in any way to or arise out of the Contest (“Dispute”) shall be final and binding arbitration. Dispute shall have the broadest possible meaning permitted by law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court. You and we acknowledge that these Official Rules affect interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to arbitrations under these Official Rules (despite any other choice of law provision). YOU AND SPONSOR BOTH AGREE THAT, WHETHER ANY CLAIM IS IN ARBITRATION OR IN COURT, YOU AND SPONSOR BOTH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL INVOLVING ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN US TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

Arbitration under this Contest shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”). The applicable AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules and AAA Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules shall apply, as modified by these Official Rules. If you initiate arbitration, the applicable AAA rules will govern the payment of fees unless applicable law requires a different allocation of fees in order for this arbitration provision to be enforceable. If you are unable to pay your share of the AAA fees, we will consider a request to pay them on your behalf so long as you have fully complied with the informal dispute resolution process as set forth above.

The arbitration will be conducted before a sole neutral arbitrator who shall be located at or near the location where the arbitration will take place. The arbitration will be conducted at a location that is reasonably convenient for you.

All issues are for the arbitrator to decide including, but not limited to, (i) all issues regarding arbitrability, (ii) the scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision as well as the Official Rules’ other terms and conditions, (iii) whether you or Sponsor, through litigation conduct or otherwise, waived the right to arbitrate, (iv) whether all or any part of this arbitration provision or these Official Rules are unenforceable, void or voidable including, but not limited to, on grounds of unconscionability, (v) any dispute regarding the payment of arbitration-related fees, (vi) any dispute related to the Mandatory Informal Dispute Resolution Process section (above), and (vii) any dispute related to Mass Arbitration (defined below). Pursuant to these Official Rules, the arbitrator has been delegated with, and possesses, exclusive authority to resolve all of the above-enumerated types of disputes.

The award of the arbitrator may require payment of the costs, fees, and/or expenses incurred by the prevailing party consistent with applicable law and the applicable AAA rules. The provisions of Fed. R. Civ. P. 68 may be applied by the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall be bound by these Official Rules as a court would, shall follow applicable law, and shall issue a reasoned, detailed decision explaining the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.

Individual Relief and Class Action Waiver

The parties agree that the arbitrator may award the same relief available in court provided that such relief (including declaratory or injunctive relief) shall only be in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide the relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. YOU AGREE THAT YOU BRING CLAIMS AGAINST SPONSOR ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, COLLECTIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL PROCEEDING. FURTHER, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE ANY PERSON’S OR ENTITY’S CLAIMS WITH THOSE OF ANOTHER PERSON OR ENTITY AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, COLLECTIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL PROCEEDING. IF AFTER EXHAUSTION OF ALL APPEALS ANY OF THESE PROHIBITIONS ON NON-INDIVIDUALIZED RELIEF; CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, COLLECTIVE, AND PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CLAIMS; AND CONSOLIDATION IS FOUND TO BE UNENFORCEABLE AS TO A PARTICULAR CLAIM OR WITH RESPECT TO A PARTICULAR REQUEST FOR RELIEF (SUCH AS A REQUEST FOR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF), THEN YOU AGREE THAT SUCH A CLAIM OR REQUEST FOR RELIEF SHALL BE DECIDED BY A COURT AFTER ALL OTHER CLAIMS AND REQUESTS FOR RELIEF ARE ARBITRATED.

Additional Procedures for Mass Arbitration Filings

YOU AND SPONSOR AGREE THAT IN THE EVENT MASS ARBITRATION IS ATTEMPTED OR SOUGHT, SUCH ARBITRATION SHALL BE RESOLVED USING THE AAA MASS ARBITRATION SUPPLEMENTARY RULES IN STAGES USING STAGED BELLWETHER PROCEEDINGS IF THEY ARE NOT RESOLVED PRIOR TO ARBITRATION AS SET FORTH ABOVE EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THEY ARE MODIFIED BY THE FOLLOWING RULES:

For purposes of these Official Rules, “Mass Arbitration” means 25 or more arbitration demands that: (i) are filed within 180 days of each other, (ii) allege similar or identical claims or causes of action, and (iii) either (a) the parties to those arbitration demands seek to simultaneously or collectively administer and/or arbitrate together, or (b) are filed by the same counsel or in coordination with each other.

In the event that Mass Arbitration is attempted or sought involving 25 arbitration demands or more, you and Sponsor agree that the arbitrator shall group the arbitration demands into batches of no less than 25 arbitration demands per group and provide for resolution of each group or batch as a single arbitration with one set of filing and administrative fees and a single arbitrator assigned per group or batch. All Mass Arbitration shall be subject to all other substantive and procedural terms contained within this Agreement and the AAA Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules.

You and Sponsor agree to cooperate in good faith with AAA to implement the aforementioned protocol for Mass Arbitration with regard to resolution, fees, and administration.

If any part of this section on Mass Arbitration is found to be unenforceable, the unenforceable portion shall be stricken, and the remainder of this section on Mass Arbitration and these Official Rules shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law.

In the event AAA is unwilling or unable to follow the procedures set forth herein with regard to Mass Arbitration, the parties may attempt to retain a different, mutually agreeable and widely recognized arbitration organization that will agree to follow the procedures set forth herein. In the event that the parties are unable to retain or agree to such an alternative arbitration provider, the alternative dispute resolution provisions set forth in these Official Rules shall not apply to those demands within the Mass Arbitration.

A court shall have the authority to enforce this provision and, if necessary, to enjoin the filing or prosecution of arbitrations.

Opting Out of Arbitration

IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU MUST NOTIFY SPONSOR IN WRITING WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS OF THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST HAD NOTICE OF THESE OFFICIAL RULES CONTAINING AN ARBITRATION PROVISION. THIS IS NOT A NEW OPT OUT RIGHT IF YOU WERE PREVIOUSLY BOUND BY AN ARBITRATION PROVISION. YOUR WRITTEN NOTIFICATION TO SPONSOR MUST BE SENT VIA MAIL TO 740 GREENVILLE BLVD., GREENVILLE, NC 27858 ATTN: LEGAL DEPARTMENT. IT MUST INCLUDE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS AS WELL AS A CLEAR STATEMENT THAT YOU DO NOT WISH TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH SPONSOR THROUGH ARBITRATION. YOUR DECISION TO OPT OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION WILL HAVE NO ADVERSE EFFECT ON YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THIS CONTEST. IF YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY NOTIFIED SPONSOR OF YOUR DECISION TO OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION, YOU DO NOT NEED TO DO SO AGAIN. ANY OPT OUT RECEIVED AFTER THE THIRTY (30) DAY TIME PERIOD WILL NOT BE VALID.

Notwithstanding any provision in these Official Rules to the contrary, the parties agree that if we make future changes to this arbitration provision, except for changes to the Notice address, you may reject such changes by sending us written notice within thirty (30) days of the change to 740 Greenville Blvd., Greenville, NC 27858 ATTN: Legal Department. This is not an opt-out of arbitration altogether. By rejecting any future changes, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute in accordance with the language of this provision.

In no event shall any claim, action or proceeding by you related in any way to these Official Rules be instituted more than two (2) years after the cause of action arose to the fullest extent permitted by law.
