According to the agreement, the Project agreed to donate ten percent (10%)
of its gross revenue (including, but not necessarily
limited to, all income and donations) to Conservancy for its general
operations.

Still, there must be a mistake or some additional terms or additions made
to this agreement, because there is a large difference (US$20.494,29)
between what the Project should have donated to SFC and what has been
actually donated for the past 3 years (according to the numbers published
early this year);



Total Income 10% of Total Income Donated To SFC Difference





2015 $9.028,56 $902,86 $12.683,40 ($11.780,54)
2014 $49.622,18 $4.962,22 $11.780,54 ($6.818,32)
2013 $49.229,19 $4.922,92 $6.818,34 ($1.895,42)





*Total* *$107.879,93* *$10.787,99* *$31.282,28* *($20.494,29)*

Adam,

I would recommend to dig deeper into this point with the Conservancy so we
can clarify the numbers.

Thanks in advance,
