cumsum till condition is met

I want to compare two matrices, each with a size of [35039 1], when the number in the first matrix M1 is bigger than the number in the second matrix M2, then I want the result as the bigger number. However, when the number in M1 is smaller than the number in M2, then I want the result to be the sum of the previous numbers in M1 till the condition is met. i imagine the code to be like this:
M1=[270;270;270;270;270;270;270;270;270;270;270;270;270;270;270;270;270;270;270;270;270]
M2=[100;100;100;500;500;500;100;100;100;100;100;100;100;600;600;600;600;600;600;100;100]
compare=M1>M2 % the condition
[row11,~,~]=find( compare )
M3(row11)= M1(row11)
[row22,~,~]=find( ~compare )
M3(row22)= 0
between = cumsum(M1(1:3),1,'reverse') %sum previous "non zero" elements in M1 starting from last number
M3(row22(1)) = between(1) % replace the first element that doesnt meet the condition M2(row22(1))
% with between(1) which is the new aggregated number, that is greater than M2(4)
%similarly, i want to repeat these steps to get M3.
between2 = cumsum ( M3(1:4),2,'reverse' )
M3(row22(2)) = between2(2)
between3 = cumsum ( M3(1:5),2,'reverse' )
M3(row22(3)) = between3(5)
between4 = cumsum ( M3(1:13),2,'reverse' )
M3(row22(4)) = between4(11)

The description is not clear yet. What is the wanted output for:
M1 = [1, 1]; M2 = [2, 2];
What does "sum of the previous numbers in M1 till the condition is met" mean in this case?
