From the BBC:

Costs repaid

It has emerged that 3,500 extra servicemen will be needed to provide security at the Games.

Culture secretary Jeremy Hunt said any serviceman who had been inconvenienced would have their costs repaid through refunds from the G4S contract.
Now, G4S stand to lose £50M and there are 11000 servicemen due to be 'inconvenienced' by this ridiculous overblown indulgence of a few sweaty oafs running, jumping, splashing about and throwing things.

50 000 000 / 11 000 = £4545 per head?
