the Sweepstakes.
Sponsor and its agents are not responsible for printing, distribution,
or production errors and may, in their sole discretion, rescind, cancel,
suspend, modify, or revoke this Sweepstakes based upon any such error without

the event there is a discrepancy or inconsistency between disclosures or other
statements contained in any Sweepstakes materials and the terms and conditions
of the Official Rules, the Official Rules shall prevail, govern and control.

enforce any term of these Official Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that
provision. Headings are solely for convenience and will not be deemed to affect
in any manner the meaning or intent of the documents or any provision hereof.
