If the executive director and a claimant dispute as to whether a ticket is a winning ticket and if the executive director determines that the ticket is not valid and does not pay the prize, the executive director may replace the disputed ticket with a ticket of equivalent sales price for a future drawing of the current game or refund the cost of the ticket. These are the sole remedies of the claimant. If a defective on-line ticket is purchased, the only responsibility or liability of the lottery, the on-line vendor, or the on-line retailer is the replacement of the defective on-line ticket with another on-line ticket for a future drawing of the same game.
