Renewal of coop-domains

Dear Madam,

dear Sir,

your coop-domains are due for renewal at January 2004. You get with our standard invoice with a renewal of your coop-domains for 2 years at a price of 198 US-Dollars. Or in other words: you pay 99 US-Dollars per year.

But you can renew your domains for longer than two years. You get two advantages:

a. Discount:

We have a simple discount offer:

3 years...... 3 %

4 years...... 4 %

5 years...... 5 %

6 years...... 6 %

7 years...... 7 %

8 years...... 8 %

9 years...... 9 %

10 years...... 10 %

For example: You pay at the standard price 990 US-Dollars for 10 years for your coop-domain. If you accept the offer to renew the domain now for 10 years, you pay only 891 US-Dollars.
