annual commencing salary) will become immediately payable. The

applicant is engaged by the client or its subsidiary/associated company as a
consequence of, and/or resulting from, the original introduction by Earl

incurred by us in instructing an agent or solicitor to act on our behalf in the
recovery of the said account. *
