+To show budget feasibility, suppose that $L(\xi) < C V(i^*)$. Then the mechanism selects $i^*$. Since the bid of $i^*$ does not affect the above condition, the threshold payment of $i^*$ is $B$ and the mechanism is budget feasible.
 Suppose  that $L(\xi) \geq C V(i^*)$. 
 Denote by $S_G$ the set selected by the greedy algorithm, and for $i\in S_G$,  denote by
 $S_i$ the subset of the solution set that was selected by the greedy algorithm just prior to the addition of $i$---both sets determined for the present cost vector $c$.

 We now present the proof of Theorem~\ref{thm:main}. Truthfulness and individual
 rationality follows from monotonicity and threshold payments.  Monotonicity and
 budget feasibility follow the same steps as the analysis of Chen \emph{et al.} \cite{chen};

  Our proof of the approximation ratio uses a bound on our concave relaxation
 $L$ (Lemma~\ref{lemma:relaxation}). This is our main technical
 contribution; the proof of this lemma can be found in Section~\ref{sec:relaxation}.
