If Amtrak needs to buy the UA miles ... what do they get from CO as that part of the deal?

Say we are talking 25,000 CO miles that get moved to Amtrak. If Amtrak pay UA a penny or 2 a mile ..... what does CO give Amtrak as their part of the deal?

Presumably the same thing. CO certainly has to buy Amtrak points since essentially what OnePass members are doing is claiming a frequent flier reward (on Amtrak).
