[ale] sudoers help

I'm trying to test sudo configuration, and I've edited the sudoers file with the following line:

webmaster  ALL= NOPASSWD: (wwwrun) ALL

which gives me a syntax error.

The file seems to meet the sample sudoer file format, but I get an error when I try to save it when I edit it with visudo.

If I remove the NOPASSWD directive to make it read:

webmaster ALL= (wwwrun) ALL

It saves with no error.

What am I doing wrong?
