Page No. Page 106 of 110 REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR GAMING VENUE OPERATIONS Rev. No. 0 Electronic Gaming Licensing Department Effectivity O6 NOV 2025 venue in full view of the players before the start of a game in order to inform and bind the players to abide by the said rules. General Traditional Bingo Rules (a) Before the start of the game, the production and serial number, type, color and design of cards to be used for a given game must be announced as the only valid cards for the game to win a prize. All players must check that their cards are of the correct specifications for the particular game. In case of discrepancy, player must surrender the same to the Command Station for exchange of new cards. The following must also be announced: 1. Pattern (including number of ways), ball bracket, prize payout and cost of cards or package cards/cost of extra card. 2. Splitting of multifaceted sheets (e.g. 2ons, 3ons, 4ons, etc.) is prohibited. Split cards are not entitled to win a prize. (b) A bingo ball is not officially drawn until the letter and number are completely called. The bingo ball with its corresponding letter and number as actually shown on the video screen is used for reference only. (c) In the event of incorrect call or incorrect ball number displayed on the flashboard, the actual ball drawn and placed on the rack (of the bingo machine) shall be deemed the official ball. (d) Should there arise, in any game played, a discrepancy in the number of the bingo balls called or announced between those displayed on the flashboard/video screen, and the number of the balls drawn and called, and placed on the rack, the last shall be deemed the official number of balls drawn and called.

Page No. Page 107 of 110 REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR GAMING VENUE OPERATIONS Rev. No. 0 Electronic Gaming Licensing Department Effectivity 0 6 NOV 2025 (e) Balls called must be daubed or marked with a ball pen, highlighter, or bingo dauber to form the winning pattern. Daubed or marked numbers must remain clearly visible and readable. However, unmarked cards or cards without mark of the required winning patterns are not valid and disqualified to win a prize. This rule does not apply to carbonized duplicated cards. (f) To declare a "BINGO", the player must shout "Bingo" loud enough for the Caller to hear. It is the responsibility of the player to shout "Bingo" to prevent the Caller from calling the next ball. (g) A possible winning card must be presented to the verifier for validation prior to declaration of "Good Bingo"/winner. (h) To declare a winning card, the winning pattern must be formed on the last ball called. Otherwise, it must be declared "sleeper" under the "Sleeper' Rule. l Sleeper Rule: "Possible winning card without the last number i l called in the required winning pattern is invalid and disqualified ." : ~------------------------------------------- 1. Moving Pattern. A moving pattern is one pattern but displayed in more ways than one. A particular card or face of a multifaceted card with a winning pattern shall be declared valid even if same winning pattern has been formed in one or other way(s) before the last ball was called. 2. Multiple Patterns. Different patterns are formed in a single game. Most often, these patterns are continuous, starting from the simplest one and ending with a cover all (Blackout). Each pattern has its own corresponding prize payout. For games with multiple patterns, the consolation prize for each pattern formed must be awarded to the winner, whether won separately or simultaneously with another

Page No. Page 108 of 110 REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR GAMING VENUE OPERATIONS Rev. No. 0 Electronic Gaming Licensing Department Effectivity NOV 2025 pattern. Thus, a bingo card earlier awarded with a consolation prize in a particular game is still eligible to win another consolation or jackpot prize in that same game. The total guaranteed prize payout declared for a game with multiple patterns must be awarded to the winner/s in full, as in any other regular game. However, in the case of a jackpot, the full amount of the jackpot prize must be awarded to the winner, thereby nullifying his right to the consolation prize for that particular pattern/game. Once a particular card or face is declared or deemed "Sleeper" in a particular pattern, the same card or face is still eligible to win other pattern/s played in the game with multiple patterns. 3. Multifaceted Sheet. Bingo cards may be in sets of one or more faces depending on the cut in a thirty-six (36)-face flat sheet of pre-printed bingo cards. Each face has an individual serial number and production number, which are the basic elements of a bingo card. Once a particular face of a multifaceted card is declared or deemed "sleeper", under the "Sleeper Rule", remaining faces of the same sheet can still qualify to form or win that same moving pattern or the other pattern/s playe d in the game w ith multiple patterns. Once a card or a face of a multifaceted card is declared or deemed as "sleeper", under the "Sleeper Rule", the same shall be marked "cancelled" to invalidate it. (i) During verification, a possible winning card must be shown on the TV monitors with the use of a document camera. Once it is declared a "Good Bingo", the winner must be paid the corresponding prize. The Operator commits to award the approved prize as announced. U) In case of two or more winners, the prize/s shall be divided as follows:

Page No. Page 109 of 110 REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR GAMING VENUE OPERATIONS Rev. No. 0 Electronic Gaming Licensing Department Effectivity 0 6 NOV 2025 1. Cash prize/s shall be divided equally among the winners. 2. Value of the non-cash prize shall be declared and properly disseminated to inform all concerned in case of multiple winners, in which case, the following options shall be available: a) Winners may agree on how the prize should be divided either by throwing of dice, drawing of lots, or purchase of the prize by one of the multiple winners and will be awarded the said prize. b) Winners shall be awarded the cash equivalent of the non-cash prize or receive their equal share of prize based on the declared value of the item. For this purpose, the Operator must submit to PAGCOR the cash receipt or sales invoice and official receipt as proofs of purchase of the prize showing its true value/amount. In the event that the Operator fails to present proof of purchase for said non-cash prizes, the prize must be paid in cash and awarded to the winners equally based on the supplier's price quotation. (k ) Once the game is officially clos ed , n o othe rwinne r/s sh a ll be considered. The players are then advised to discard their cards. (I) On Carbonized Duplicated Card, 1. A carbonized duplicated card is a two-part carbonized type of card and serially printed, containing numbers 1 to 15 under letter B, 16 to 30 under letter I, 31 to 45 under N, 46 to 60 under G and 61 to 75 under 0. 2.

Players must encircle their chosen numbers on the carbonized duplicated card with the original copy on top of the duplicate copy. The original copy must be dropped into the designated dropbox for the particular game. In case the original copy is dropped into the wrong dropbox, it shall be cancelled and replaced with a new one; its serial number shall be indicated in the replacement card. 4. To declare a winning card, a player's encircled chosen numbers must have all been drawn and declared on the last ball called. Otherwise, the "Sleeper Rule" shall apply. A winning card is where the entries in the duplicate copy must exactly match with those of the original copy in its entirety. Cards with alteration, erasure or correction shall be declared invalid and disqualified to win. However, unnecessary markings shall not void the winning card provided such markings do not obscure the identification of the chosen numbers. (m) No person shall be allowed to participate in a bingo game unless personally present at the bingo hall at the time the bingo games are being conducted. (n) No refunds on unused cards shall be allowed except when the game is cancelled due to unavoidable/justifiable circumstances as determined by the gaming venue management upon proper consultation with PAGCOR Representative( s ).
