The twenty five tickets provided for each one of the previous ticket purchasers have a market value of $1,250. Full disclosure is provided herewith to all ticket holders to openly disclose that a maximum of 25 new tickets were issued to all three Previous Ticket Holders on or about December 1st, 2013. The 25 replacement Tickets as issued to each previous AMG ticket purchaser are valid for this Amended Raffle Drawing for the 2014 Mercedes 550 SL or cash to be held on December 23, 2014 or sooner if all 6500 tickets are sold.

h. The December 23 2014 Raffle Drawing was rescheduled on December 15, 2014. The number of tickets sold was insufficient to hold the drawing. The Board agreed to reduce the number of tickets to 4500. We will open ticket sales under a 2015 Fulton County License. This drawing will offer tickets at buy three get one free. Each ticket will be $50 each. Approximately 1000 people will be offered the four ticket pack resulting in 4000 tickets in the drawing barrel, thereby increasing their odds of winning. All previously purchased tickets are presently in the drawing barrel. Our Board understands that profit from this drawing will be greatly reduced; however we are committed to successfully holding the raffle drawing for our ticket purchasers.
