Financial Consideration Table             

Compensation for M2X services is based on the level of services rendered, the value of the commodity exchanged and the commitment of the generator to the M2X program via an annual subscription associateship. There is an assumed effort input by M2X as the commodity moves through the various levels of marketing and there is an assumed diminishing financial return relative to the value of the commodity. Both assumptions and the subscription status are reflected in the percent fee schedule levied by M2X for the services rendered. The Associate and/or Patron can remove the commodity from the M2X marketing schedule at any time, if such is the choice. One half of the percentage fee for Pre-Priced Classsification Sale (PPC) is assessed a removed commodity unless otherwise negotiated.
========================================================================================

The Annual Subscription for M2X ASSOCIATE status is:
-- Pay per employee: $2.00 per employee with Minimum of $25.00
                                                                                        / Maximum of $5000 
-- Non-Profits are granted Associateship Status for the minimum of $25.00

Subscription Associateship benefits:
-- Lower percentage rate on commission for sale/handling of commodities
-- Listed on the M2X WebSite as an Associate and supporter of M2X
