Answer

Players are only entitled to their portion of the winnings.

After the one-year expiry date is up, any unclaimed portion of the split jackpot goes into the unclaimed prize fund and is used to create new prizing.

Good morning David, thank you for sharing your comments. The LOTTO MAX jackpot starts at $10 million and grows until it is won. Any MAXMILLIONS not awarded are added to the following week's jackpot. If the jackpot is already topped out at $60 Million, they will be awarded by creating more MAXMILLIONS in addition to new MAXMILLIONS generated from sales that week. Once the top prize is won, any MAXMILLIONS that did not produce winners are rolled in the base jackpot starting amount of $10 Million.
