Hi Jason

There's no mention about the fee at all on the website, so after
completing their detailed submission format, I've got a call from them
wanting to schedule a deal screening time. He then mentioned about the
fee, USD6,000, all this while I thought it was free.

Dear TKTKTKTK,

Thank you for submitting your application to present at the Keiretsu
Forum chapter meetings in the San Francisco Bay Area on September 23,
24 & 25. We will begin the prescreening process for the August
Keiretsu Forum meetings the week of Sept 7-11 and should be contacting
you within the next few days to coordinate a one-hour prescreening
conference call.

In the meantime, please review, sign, and either fax or send as a pdf
the attached screening agreement. Please note that we cannot set up
the prescreening call until we receive the agreement. Our fax number
is (415) 543-2007. I have also attached an article written by Ed
Harley, one of our most active members, on how to deliver an effective
presentation. It will provide a good reference for your future
preparations.

Finally, please let us know your availability for a prescreening call
the week of September 7-11. It helps if you can provide us with
numerous available blocks of time.
