[Ken Stubbs <kstubbs@digitel.net>]

her is an exerpt from the icann-verisign-doc agreement:

"1. Approval of Variable Accreditation Fee. For so long as Registrar is an 
ICANN-Accredited Registrar in the .com, .net or .org TLD, Registrar will 
approve the variable accreditation fee, as provided in Subsection 3.9.2 of 
the Registrar Accreditation Agreement, for so long as Registrar's portion 
does not exceed $2,000,000 annually."

i do not know whether there is a "cap" on the fees or not ?
