INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT
This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed by Atlanticus Holdings Corporation, a Georgia corporation (the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 23, 2014 (as amended or supplemented, the “Schedule TO”). The Schedule TO relates to the Company’s offer to purchase for cash up to $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.875% Convertible Senior Notes due 2035 (the “Securities”), validly tendered and accepted. The Company’s offer is made upon the terms and conditions contained in the Offer to Purchase, dated June 23, 2014 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Offer to Purchase”), a copy of which previously has been filed as Exhibit (a)(1) to the Schedule TO.
The information contained in the Offer to Purchase also is amended and supplemented by the Supplement No. 1 to the Offer to Purchase dated July 15, 2014, attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(1)(A) (the “Supplement”).
This Amendment and the Supplement are intended to satisfy the disclosure requirements of Rule 13e-4(c)(3), Rule 13e-4(d)(2) and Rule 13e-4(e)(3) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Only those items amended are reported in this Amendment. All other terms and conditions set forth in the Schedule TO and the Offer to Purchase shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect. This Amendment and the Supplement should be read in conjunction with the Schedule TO and the Offer to Purchase. All capitalized terms used but not specifically defined in this Amendment or the Supplement have the meanings given to such terms in the Offer to Purchase.
Items 1 through 9.
The information set forth in the Supplement is incorporated herein by reference.
The Offer to Purchase is hereby amended to replace the word “certain” in the first sentence of the section entitled “Important Information Concerning the Offer — Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” with the word “material” to make clear that the disclosure in that section addresses all material U.S. federal income tax considerations rather than only certain U.S. federal income tax considerations.
Item 10. Financial Statements.
The Company does not believe it is required to include financial information due to the fact that this information is not material to Holders of the Securities because, among other reasons, the consideration offered consists solely of cash, the Offer is not subject to any financing condition, and the Company is a public reporting company that files reports electronically through EDGAR.
Item 11. Additional Information.
The information set forth in the Supplement is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 12. Exhibits.

(a)(1) Offer to Purchase, dated June 23, 2014 (filed as Exhibit (a)(1) to the Company’s Schedule TO filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 23, 2014, and incorporated herein by reference).
