6. Winner Selection and Notification

The Administrator will select all potential winners in a random drawing conducted at the Administrator’s offices. The Sponsor’s and Administrator’s decisions are final.

One (1) potential Sweepstakes Grand Prize winner will be selected from among all eligible Sweepstakes entries received during the Sweepstakes Period in a random drawing to be held on or about September 17, 2024 (the “Sweepstakes Drawing Date”).

If an eligible potential winner cannot be contacted or does not reply, if the prize is declined, or if there is a return of any notification as undeliverable, then the eligible potential Sweepstakes Grand Prize winner may, in the Sponsor’s sole and absolute discretion, be disqualified (and, if disqualified, the Sweepstakes Grand Prize winner will forfeit any and all rights to the Sweepstakes Grand Prize) and the Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to randomly select an alternate eligible Sweepstakes Grand Prize winner in a separate random drawing from the remaining eligible entries submitted and received in accordance with these Official Rules.
