Abstract: Two new forms of financial instruments that can be offered by an issuing company at an initial public offering via an exchange or investment syndicate or otherwise, and, if used, a computerized exchange for trading. The instruments include Fair Revenue Participation Contracts (FRPC) which provide investors with a right to receive a fixed percentage of the issuing company's revenue for a fixed length of time, in combination with a minimum payment guarantee underwritten by a third party guarantor which guarantees some minimum amount of royalty payments to investor, at least recouping their initial investment or resulting in some higher yield to investors. In addition a Debt+Share Royalty instrument gives investors, in exchange for making a loan, a right to repayment of the loan followed by a fixed percentage of the royalty issuer's revenue pursuant to a fixed payment schedule until a fixed amount of revenue has been paid (e.g., a variable period of time determined by revenues).

Abstract: A system and method for dynamic security price and value comparison in indexed terms of a large number of user selected factors relating to a large number of user selected securities, all with regard to a single “pivot” security. The method is implemented as a Java script computer program that permits a user to view security data on an indexed basis whereby a pivot company is chosen and represented as 100 for each of the factors. Any of a large number of companies listed can be selected by the user as the pivot security. The benefit of using the Comparator & Indexer is that relative valuations to those of the pivot security become immediately apparent either resulting in a value conclusion or determination as to the areas necessary for further focused study.
