Using exponents with two distinct product operations

What would be a good way to distinguish exponents within an
algebra that has two kinds of multiplication?
eg. given two product operations x and *
I'd like to be able to rewrite this
E x E + E * E
as something like this
2 2
E + E
but obviously the use of the exponents needs to distinguish which kind of
multiplication is being applied.
One approach would be to place the appropriate mutliplication symbol after
the exponent, as in
2x 2*
E + E
But are there any pre-existing notational idioms for handling this sort of
thing?
Thanks in advance.
Lee
