The following commitments represent a bottom line contribution of *

1.  MARKET DEVELOPMENT FUNDS (DISCOUNTS) - Credit issued on the preceding

    discretion on how to best utilize these credits for the above purpose. Proof
    of performance requested.

    Rate for Existing Accounts: $* credit per month per pager for local numeric

    between 35,000 to 60,000 double data entry efforts performed to synchronize
