Incorrect. 5% of REVENUE, not 5% of PROFIT. If they bring in $1 million and have operating costs of $2 million they would still owe the government 5% of that $1 million even though they actually made no money.

So, the only way that the government would see no money from this deal would be if M2Z had absolutely zero income. If that were the case I can guarantee that the company wouldn't be around for long and then the government would get their spectrum back.
Did you read the filing? This only applies to their "Premium Offering" subscription service. And they "may" offer it. It doesn't say they HAVE to. They can plaster the free service ads or any number of creative schemes to make money that is exempt and never offer a premium service.
