Check the last paragraph of the following conditions from:
http://www.rebel.nl/gm02.htm
Conditions

The game is scheduled on Saturday July 3 10:00 New York / 16:00 Amsterdam time.

The time control is 40 moves in 2 hours and then one hour for the rest of the
game so a game can not take longer than 6 hours.

Move transmission via the Internet Chess Club

It should be guaranteed that both players can not lose on time due to problems
(time loss) with the move transmission over the net. These games are meant to
give some light on the current state of art of the on-going Man versus Machine
event and should reflect a normal face-to-face event. For that purpose an
arbiter is appointed and his decisions will be final.

The arbiter is Enrique Irazoqui former chief editor of the "Computer Chess
Reports" magazine.

To ensure fair play the arbiter is send the Rebel version before the game is
started and the arbiter will check all moves played by Rebel. Another (second)
arbiter is installed at the place of the grandmaster, the normal rules apply.
