NAMA ANNOUNCES OPERATOR MEMBERSHIP RENEWAL INCENTIVE:
Early Birds Eligible for Prizes Including Fully Stocked Snapple Vending Machine

CHICAGO, IL - National Automatic Merchandising Association operator members who send back renewal packages early are eligible to win a variety of prizes including a fully stocked Snapple vending machine worth $2,300, NAMA Vice President of Membership and Coffee Service Dean Gilland announced today. Drawings for a variety of other valuable prizes will be held in November and December, and all members who renew their dues by December 31, 2005, will be eligible for the Grand Prize Snapple vending machine.

In announcing the contest Gilland said, “Operator members who renew early save NAMA and its membership time and money - everything from administrative costs to extra postage -- which is why we want to reward them with these incentives. Drawings for prizes will be held in November, December and January, so an operator member who renews right away will be eligible for all three drawings. And on behalf of everyone we certainly want to thank our very generous supplier members who have made this contest possible.”

According to Gilland, two drawings will be held where five operators will be selected each time to receive the following prizes:

• A Sugar Foods Coffee Service Package worth $495
• A Sugar Foods Vending Package worth $508
• A Grindmaster PourOver Coffee Brewer worth $452-$499
• An Everpure Home Filtering System worth $250
• Camlock Systems Padlocks worth $220

Said Gilland, “The Grand Prize drawing will be held January 16, 2006, and it's a great prize: A new and fully stocked Snapple Vending machine worth $2,300.”

Operator members should visit www.vending.org for incentive program details and drawing dates.

ConcludedGilland, “Don't wait - send in your renewal package today! The earlier you renew the more chances you have to win.”
