Exclusive Offer for BWR Members – Redeem 10,000 points for a free night

The second part of the Fall Promotion is a ‘burn’ period, where BWR members can redeem 10,000 points for an exclusive offer for a Free Night valid for a stay at any Best Western branded hotel in North America. The free night is valid for stays taking place between November 1, 2017 and January 31, 2018 (Promotion is subject to cancellation or change without notice). Does a guest need to make advance reservations for the Free Night under this promotion?
Yes, advanced reservations are required. Advanced reservations can be made on bestwestern.com, through the mobile app, by calling the hotel directly or by calling Best Western Central Reservations at 1(800) 780-7234.

Interestingly, the T&C's don't mention a word about this "second part" of the Fall Promo. And the "Promotion is subject to cancellation or change without notice" statement above doesn't make me feel all that comfortable either.
