emergencies, wide spread illnesses, declarations of war, acts of God, acts of terrorism) interferes with any
aspect of the Sweepstakes, including but not limited to fulfillment of the prize(s), as determined by Sponsor in
its sole discretion. In such event, Sponsor, in its sole discretion, may elect to hold a random drawing from
among all eligible Sweepstakes entries received up to the date of discontinuance and may modify the prizes
offered herein. Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to disqualify any individual it finds to be
tampering with the entry process or the operation of the Sweepstakes or to be acting in violation of the Official

unauthorized human intervention in any part of the entry process or the Sweepstakes; (4) technical or human
error which may occur in the administration of the Sweepstakes or the processing of entries; or (5) any injury
or damage to persons or property which may be caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, from entrant’s
participation in the Sweepstakes or receipt or use or misuse of any prize. If for any reason an entrant’s entry
is confirmed to have been erroneously deleted, lost, or otherwise destroyed or corrupted, entrant’s sole remedy
is another entry in the Sweepstakes, if it is possible. No more than the stated number of prizes will be awarded.
In the event that production, technical, seeding, programming or any other reasons cause more than the stated
number of prizes as set forth in these Official Rules to be available and/or claimed, Sponsor reserves the right
to award only the stated number of prizes by a random drawing among all legitimate, unawarded, eligible prize
claims.
11. Disputes: Except where prohibited, each entrant agrees that: (1) any and all disputes, claims and

of these Official Rules, or the rights and obligations of the entrant and Sponsor in connection with the
Sweepstakes, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Michigan
without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules (whether of the State of Michigan or any

Michigan.
