just info-the otcqb application fee is 2500, the new annual fee to be listed on otcqb is 10,000,(presumably in addition to fees for various filings)which will keep some co's off of otcqb, as many co's dont have that much net income- does not affect CWRN now or in the future though,as CWRN receives millions of profit on each ship
