no

#5 will happily vote yes for only 1k so if it's #2's turn he offers #5 1k and then gives the rest to himself, same for #3

depending on wether #2,3,4,5 are sure that the others are gonna offer the right thing the 1k could also be enough to get #4's vote. then again if they actually know what the others are gonna do what's in it for #5 to vote yes when #1 offers him 1k since he knows #2 and #3 are gonna do the same.

there are a few plausible options:

1) 99k for #2 or #3 and 1k for #5
2) 1k for #4 and 1k for #5 and the rest for #1
3) same as above but 1k to two out of #3,4,5 and rest to #1

it all depends one wether #2-5 assume that the others are gonna make the right offer before they have actually done so and wether #5 votes yes for 1k despite knowing that he will be offered 1k by some1 else later.
