So as Kali pointed out, it would be 138,200, but that isn't what the 7 times the initial money is for. For 2012 they are only requesting 25k. That's only 2.3 times more for 2012 compared to 2006 for a 10 times increase in usage up to this point. When the contract would come into effect, it would be even more. As they probably expect a content increase, and a user increase in the next 3 years, they don't want to be stuck with a constant fee again.
