Page 3 Copyright © CeX (Complete Entertainment Exchange) Ltd. All rights reserved. last updated 24/03/2021 Definition of Franchising Franchising – a Strategic Partnership Franchising is fundamentally a business partnership between an established company (the Franchisor), wishing to expand its business, and independent third parties (the Franchisees). The partnership is governed by a legally binding contract, the Franchise Agreement, under which the Franchisor permits Franchisees to use its trade name, trademark and confidential business methods. In return, Franchisees accept certain restrictions on the way that business is conducted and financially reward the Franchisor on the level of success achieved. A Business Format Franchise gives the Franchisees the advantage of setting up in business with the support and advice of an organisation that has successfully carried out ‘First Phase’ pilot operations that serve as a blueprint. This system eliminates many of the risks that are involved in a normal business start-up situation. Definition of Franchising – a Strategic Partnership Franchising is a system of marketing goods and/or services and/or technology, which is based upon a close and on-going collaboration between legally and financially separate and independent undertakings, the Franchisor and its individual Franchisees, whereby the Franchisor grants its individual Franchisees the right, and imposes the obligation, to conduct a business in accordance with the Franchisor’s concept. The right entitles and compels individual Franchisees, in exchange for a direct or indirect financial consideration, to use the Franchisor’s trade name, and/or trade mark and/or service mark, know-how, business and technical methods, procedural system, and other industrial and/or intellectual property rights supported by continuing provision of commercial and technical assistance, within the framework and for the term of a written Franchise Agreement, concluded between parties for this purpose. Source: British Franchise Association The Franchisor develops the operating blueprint, has obligations to market and develop the Franchise as a whole and to help Franchisees improve their performance, at the same time maintaining and improving standards of quality and service. The Franchisor provides the Brand, Experience, Expertise and complete Know-how which all helps to reduce the learning curve, which is expensive in terms of both time and money. The Franchisee has obligations to uphold the good name of the Franchisor, to maintain and improve standards of quality and service, and to operate the business in accordance with the standard format/system. The operation will be to locally promote, sell and provide the product/service of the Franchise. The Franchisees provide the benefit of Entrepreneurial drive, motivation and ambition.

All rights reserved. last updated 24/03/2021 CeX Franchise Opportunity The CeX Concept – Buy/Sell/Exchange Our business model is based on buying and selling from the same source: our customers. To succeed in such a business and overcome stock shortages or surpluses, we aim to achieve two optimal positions on all our products: 1. An optimal selling price which is competitive in comparison to buying the same product new – a price at which the product will sell. 2. An optimal purchase price – a price which customers are willing to supply the product. We constantly look at product supply and demand curves and adjust our prices according to our experience and using the sophisticated tools we have developed over the last 24 years. The Products The CeX (Complete Entertainment Exchange) brand is synonymous with technology led entertainment products. We currently group our product lines into the following six main categories, which we call super categories: Games, DVD, Computing, Electronics and Mobile Phones. Games Video Games are in the 6th Generation technology. From humble beginnings, with the likes of Atari and Sega, the video game business is now BIG business with its estimated value higher than that of any other sector in the entertainments industry. We currently store the buy and sell prices of over 100,000 lines. Movies Despite the rise of digital streaming services, DVD and Blu-ray remain a popular format for people to watch and collect their cinematic favourites. Computing In the fast moving world of computers, upgrading to keep ahead is paramount for technology buffs. You can do it cheaply with CeX. The goods that these technology buffs trade in, we then sell on to the rest of us at a bargain price. “£200 for a laptop anyone?” Page 5 Copyright © CeX (Complete Entertainment Exchange) Ltd. All rights reserved. last updated 24/03/2021 CeX Franchise Opportunity Mobile Phones We all have Mobile phones. But how many do we have stashed in a drawer doing absolutely nothing? Trade it in, upgrade it or get good money for it from CeX. Got a free upgrade you don’t need? Trade it in at CeX because we know everything sells for the right price. That’s the crux of the matter: getting the right price. We’ve got a team working on thousands of prices every day to ensure that you buy the stock in and sell it on quickly with a healthy margin which no new retailer could ever dream of making. Electronics From MP3 players to memory sticks to digital cameras, electronics is our fastest growing 'Supercat'. With ever more exciting inventions entering the market through the decades, a lot of older electronic gadgets can be got for bargain prices at CeX rather than gathering dust in someone’s loft. Bring it to CeX and get cash!. Future Categories New technologies appear all the time and as we genuinely love this stuff we want to trade them and make money. We are constantly monitoring the market for any new products on which money can be made. One of the best aspects of working on the shop floor is not knowing what the next bit of stock through the door will be. If it is not on our systems, instant message or phone our Pricing Team and we can agree a price that the customer is happy with and sell it for a price that makes money. It’s fun and gives us a range that no one else can offer from simply buying wholesale. Branded Accessories and Repairs Alongside one of our trusted service providers and as a compliment to our product range we now offer an extensive range of branded CeX accessories and a full electronics and phone repair service.

Wind connectivity has been identified as a key factor driving many biological processes. 2. Existing software available for managing wind data are often overly complex for studying many ecological processes and cannot be incorporated into a broad framework. 3. Here we present rWind, an R langauge package to download and manage surface wind da ta from the Global Forecasting System and to compute wind connectivity between locations. 4. Data obtained with rWind can be used in a general framework for analysis of biological processes to develop hypotheses about the role of wind in driving ecological and evolutionary patterns. KEYWORDS R, wind connectivity, landscape genetics SOFTWARE AVAILABILITY The stable version of rWind is released regularly on the Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN): https://CRAN.R -project.org/package=rWind and can be installed in R by typing the following command: install.packages("rWind") The development version of rWind is hosted on github: https://github.com/jabiologo/rWind rWind is distributed under GNU Public Licence (GPL) version 3 or greater.

  • A Study of UK Gaming Attitudes and Behaviours
    Game on: a study of UK gaming attitudes and behaviours How smartphones, esports and VR are changing the way we play savanta.com savanta.com Contents 3 Introduction 4 Industry overview: who are gamers? 12 The four gamer personas 18 Gaming purchasing behaviour and spend 22 Addiction and bullying: the dark side of gaming 26 Who watches esports? 29 VR: what does the future hold? 32 Conclusion 33 How Savanta can help you savanta.com 2 Introduction Much has changed in the gaming industry since the days of Pong and Pacman or even Mario and Sonic; now everyone with a smartphone has access to a world of games in their pocket. More than two thirds (67%) of people in the UK have played a game on a smartphone over the past year. The ways in which people buy video games have also evolved with more than a third (36%) of gamers saying they have purchased a gaming subscription and 30% using a game key or token within the last three months. Gaming is no longer a niche pastime. Overall, the majority (86%) of the UK population have played a game of some kind over the past year, and although 17% of Brits agree with the statement that “most gamers are kids or teenagers” the data demonstrates that this is categorically untrue. This report on the gaming industry sets out to debunk some myths as well as looking at the personas of different gamers, their gaming habits and their views on emerging trends such as esports and the future of virtual reality.

  • Composting of Domestic Refuse and Sewage Sludge
    Resources, Conservation and Recycling, 6 ( 1992 ) 243-257 243 Elsevier Science Publishers B.V. Composting of domestic refuse and sewage sludge. II. Evolution of carbon and some "humification" indexes Emeterio Iglesias Jim6nez and Victor P6rez Garcia Instituto de Productos Naturales y Agrobiologia de Canarias, Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain (Received 15 July 1991; accepted in revised form 6 January 1992 ) ABSTRACT Iglesias Jim6nez, E. and P6rez Garcia, V., 1992. Composting of domestic refuse and sewage sludge. II. Evolution of carbon and some "humification" indexes. Resour. Conserv. RecycL, 6: 243-257. The evolution, during composting of city refuse (R-pile) and city refuse + sewage sludge co-com- posting (R + S-pile), of total organic matter (TOM) and some forms of carbon: total organic carbon (Ct), oxidizable carbon (Co), alkaline-extractable carbon (Cox), humic acid-like carbon (Cha), and fulvic acid-like carbon (Cfa), was evaluated. The results were correlated with some maturity param- eters, namely, C/N ratio in the solid phase (C/Ns), C/N ratio in the water-soluble phase (C/Nw), and cation-exchange capacity (CEC), to examine the relationships between the mineralizationof the organic matter, biological stability of compost, and "humification". The regression analysis was carried out consideringjointly all the data points of both the R-pile and the R + S-pile, to extrapolate new maturity criteria irrespective of the initial composition of the urban raw material used for composting. The results show that the CEC/Ct and ChJCfa ratios may also be considered to be good maturity parameters. A value higher than 1.9 for both ratios, in addition to a value lower than 6 for the C/Nw ratio, may be considered as a suitable indicator of a high degree of maturity in composts of urban origin (municipal solid waste and sewage sludge composts).

  • Selecting the Optimal Resins for Removal of DNA Contamination During Process Purification
    Practical Guide: Selecting the Optimal Resins for Removal of DNA Contamination during Process Purification Payal Khandelwal, PhD Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., 6000 James Watson Drive, Hercules, CA 94547 Purification Solutions Bulletin 6881 Effectively Eliminate DNA Contamination with Our Versatile Process Resins Cell culture production of recombinant proteins invariably results in a protein sample contaminated with host cell DNA. The contaminating DNA leads to increased viscosity of the feedstream and can interfere with subsequent purification steps such as anion exchange chromatography. In addition, contamination with cellular DNA creates a therapeutic risk. Regulatory authorities require that DNA levels in all therapeutic protein and antibody samples be reduced to 10–100 pg/dose. Cell culture clarification processes, such as centrifugation or tangential flow filtration (TFF), can provide some initial DNA removal. However, such techniques create high-shear conditions, which could increase cell disruption and, as a result, contamination. In addition, use of Benzonase or other nucleases can lead to contamination with DNA fragments instead of the full-length DNA and requires subsequent nuclease removal. Moreover, this method does not maintain the DNA binding activity of some proteins, which can be a requirement of the purification process. In contrast, chromatography avoids these issues, resulting in improved DNA removal from process streams. Bio-Rad has provided a progressive selection of chromatography resins for the process-scale purification
