CONDITIONS OF PARTICIPATION IN AUSTRALIAN IDOL AUDITION

In participating in the auditions for Australian Idol (the "Programme"), you will be deemed to have agreed to the following terms and conditions:

1. You must be 16 or over and less than 31 years of age on June 30, 2007. Failure to supply proof of your age (ie. current driver’s licence, birth certificate or passport) will result in your disqualification from the auditioning process. If you are less than 18 years old and you are called back for a second audition, you must be accompanied to the second audition by your parent/ legal guardian who will need to consent to your participation.

2. You must abide by the rules, regulations, terms and conditions of the Programme as devised from time to time by Grundy Television Pty Limited (the "Producer") and you will accept the Producer's decisions as final, recognising that the interests of the Programme shall override those of any auditionee.

3. The Producer has no obligation to record and Network Ten Pty Limited has no obligation to broadcast your appearance or any part of your contribution to the auditioning process.

4. Generally, it is a condition of participation that you have not previously entered into any commercial, contractual, sponsorship or other agreement or arrangement with any person, firm or company in respect of your musical and/or performing abilities or the products thereof or in respect of you name likeness, image or biography. However, should you have entered into such an arrangement, you must immediately notify the Producer at the audition and the Producer may take such action as it considers in its absolute discretion to be appropriate including without limitation disqualifying you from the auditioning process.

5. You acknowledge that in reliance on consents given by you, the Producer may incur significant outlays and as an incentive for the Producer to photograph, video, film or record you (there being no obligation on the Producer to do so), you irrevocably agree and consent that the Producer may (and may authorise others to) photograph, video, film and/or record you and edit, adapt, alter, omit and otherwise use the resulting materials (the “Materials”), your name, likeness, image, actions, voice and/or biographical material (which includes, without limitation, any “personal information” as defined in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth)), in any and all media now known or hereafter devised, world-wide, in or in connection with the production, broadcast, marketing, promotion, publicity and exploitation of the Programme, in perpetuity without restriction. The Producer will own all rights, title and interest in any Materials and the results and proceeds of the Materials in perpetuity.



|| The next round

The top 100 contestants went through to the next major competition round which was held over a week in June 2006. Their performances were recorded in Sydney at the Seymour Centre.

Of these 100 participants, just the top 25 [down from last year's top 30] will progress to the next performance round. Once the top 25 have been selected, they will be split into smaller groups. Each week a different group will be featured on the show.

Viewers then have the chance to cast their vote for who progresses through to the finals. Through this voting process, the top 25 will be trimmed down to just ten finalists.

From mid September, these ten finalists will perform in front of a massive studio audience and the show will be broadcast live. At the end of each live show, the studio audience and the home viewers will be able to vote for their favourite performer. Each week, the number of performers will be reduced until there are only two contestants left standing.

In a major live event, the final episode will feature these two aspiring stars competing for the ultimate title of Australian Idol, chosen by the national TV audience. The next Australian Idol will then be announced.
