Hi Joe,

This cancellation fee was stated in the contract our institution
originally signed, but with terms like “reasonable annual access fee”,
“may”, “from time to time charge” and the amount of this fee has been
explicitly determined only in this last contract just signed for 2013.

In the same licence it is also stated that "this reasonable access
fee" can rise during the next years.
