¹⁾ These fees only apply if the specified services are expressly requested by the customer in writing

²⁾ AUD$

³⁾ If no listing is provided then the directory listing found on the deposited media is used.

⁴⁾ The provision of a md5 hash gives the customer confidence of knowing that we have received and extracted from the correct file.

⁵⁾ Please note that the cost for many compilers and tools is $Nil as we have licences for a wide range of commonly used compilers and tools.
Some Developers, however, are using specialised processors which require specialised compilers which we will need to acquire on behalf of the customer to compile the source code.
This is often a good risk mitigation strategy in any event as the Customer may at some stage require such tools.

⁶⁾ A rebate of the level 1 verification fees applies if a level 1 verification has already been done

⁷⁾ A rebate of the level 1 and 2 verification fees applies if a level 1 or a level 2 verification has already been done
