Therefore, let it be known throughout the Empire of the United Royal, Sovereign, Imperial Court of the Rising Sun Empire of Southern Colorado. That from this day forward, Saturday, August 26, 1989, that all designated fundraising benefit events and designated benefits show that all entertainers who participate in such benefits shall be required to donate all of their tips towards the benefit.
Furthermore, that the Court shall insure that at least eighty (80%) percent of the net benefit proceeds shall be delivered to the recipient or cause for which they were intended and that the Court may take no more than twenty (20%) per cent of the net proceeds to help cover expenses and costs incurred in the production of the benefit and to help promote the continuing existence of the Court as a Charitable Organization.
Finally, it shall be up to the Reigning Emperor and Empress if they desire to override any portion of the twenty (20%) percent that does to the Court and apply up to one hundred (100%) percent to the benefit cause. As long as the Reigning Monarchs are in agreement in this matter then they must abide by the majority vote cast by the Board of Advisors.
