To whom it may concern,

With lengthy and intense salvaging operation finally completed and debris safely removed from immediate area of Fulda Border Station we turn our attention to the Jump Gate itself. We understand that ongoing conflict with Gas Miners Guild might be an obstacle to a smooth operation of the Gate andr traffic between Rheinland and Kusari. However with experience gathered from Hudson Crisis we wish to tackle this problem before it grows over time and puts your citizens in harm's way of such possible calamity. We are contacting your government to inquire about your plans regarding Frankfurt->Sigma 13 connection so that we could assess options and provide the best solution to the problem.

Sincerely,

John White,
Chief Executive Officer,

Dear Ms. Laura,

Due to nature of damage caused by extrapolated amount of NEMP ordnance and the fact we already had to deal with this once back in Liberty, we estimate the the price for repairing this Jump Gate would be 420 000 000 SC without including logistical costs that are usually paid as our parts are delivered. We cannot anticipate the length of operation due to possible hostile interventions but at optimal delivery rate and assembly, we would be satisfied with completing it in 42 days from first shipments made.

Due to certain incidents and rumours surrounding the whole situation, we believe it is time to approach your government in order to continue securing our technology in legislated way. We would be willing to waive the bill if your government is open to adding law clause, giving us legal and written permission to confiscate Black Market Light Arms, Docking Ring Parts, Jump Gate and Trade Lane Parts from unauthorized entities. While our conditions have always been there from the dawning days of delivering or assembling our products in foreign houses, it was written in agreements that not all civilians and corporate shippers were aware off. Having it established in accessible portion of the laws would allow us to concentrate our budget towards increasing efficiency of our manufacture plants and facilities thus decreasing overall costs for our clients.

Sincerely,

John White,
Chief Executive Officer,

Dear Ms. Laura,

It is a shame to hear that your government is unwilling to assist Ageira to uphold our strict protocol regarding illegal shipping of our highly-protected product. We were hoping for more progressive approach to this situation, however we will be expecting for your Government to at least put Ageira's Docking Rings Parts and Jump Gate and Trade Lane Parts as restricted commodity with exclusive rights of shipping granted for Ageira Technologies, Deep Space Engineering and Universal Shipping. Once this addition is within your laws, we will proceed with deliveries to repair the Jump Gate.

Sincerely,

John White,
President, Ageira Innovations

Ms. Laura,

This exclusive "favour" has been stipulation of all agreements to sell Docking Rings since year 120, Jump Gates since 185 and Trade Lanes since 280. Even with your government nationalizing the network nothing has been changed for only Ageira Technologies, Deep Space Engineering and Universal Shipping is authorized to transports these highly-exclusive and patent-protected Whiteboxes™ containing those Parts and thus these three corporations has been calibrating, supplying and maintaining for centuries with that stipulation in place although never written on the laws due to various confidentiality clauses at the time. However we are at such a time where laws requires to be precise to be upheld in civilized houses and thus Ageira Innovations is asking your government to finally put this matter to rest by adding it to laws so that all unauthorized cases of various less-than-lawful entities would not be get a free pass by your law enforcement.

Your government and in the past military, has been unkind to our corporation that brought speed of light to day-to-day travels in the following forms:
• Sabotaging Hudson and Bering Jump Gates leading to what later could have caused of Hudson Crisis that could have ended in bigger catastrophe than ever seen before should Ageira Innovations missed the anomalies in readings from.
• Denying continued docking permissions for Ageira Technologies on Rheinland Planets and Police Border Stations during wartime thus putting us Ageira transports in higher danger from various terrorist and pirate movements.
• Threatening us due to Ageira Innovations accidentally breaking your convoluted laws that had different meaning per your side in comparison to our lawyers only to effectively lengthen the transport of industrial-grade Diamonds from Solarius Station to our facilities.

Are we asking too much, to protect our exclusive products that we share with the rest of Sirius already? If you refuse our long-lasting right to confiscate Whiteboxes™ to be added in laws then the least you can do is to uphold it via your law enforcment agencies.

Sincerely,

John White,
President, Ageira Innovations

Ms. Laura,

Ageira Technologies, Deep Space Engineering and Universal Shipping have worked closely through centuries with strict parts to play in providing services to Sirius. While recent decades allowed corporations to expand their operations beyond very specific and narrow roles in this, our companies are loyal to a fault and while we might have a different approach to how we perceive our place in Sirius, we still work hand in hand and we cannot imagine Sirius as it is without this close cooperation throughout centuries. And because of their outstanding performance in the past, all Sirius houses have the same level and density of Jump Gate and Trade Lane network as house where this technology originated from.

While we are aware of your animosity with Universal Shipping during wartime, we have hoped that it is in the past considering your current laws have not a single restriction upon their corporation. Therefore we are questioning the honesty of your claims that it is problematic or concerning to have them on same level as Ageira Technologies and Deep Space Engineering. We would also like to make it absolutely clear that this is not a special right as you assume. This is inherit right for only Ageira Technologies, Deep Space Engineering and Universal Shipping are authorized to transport Docking Ring, Jump Gate and Trade Lane Parts.

We are not asking for additional cargo permission which we currently could not transport. We are asking, for your government to acknowledge our long-lasting proprietary technology rights in a written form. If you claim that everyone should be allowed to transport our Whiteboxes™ then you are approving illegal shipments and criminals who have illegally obtained them in the first place through nefarious ways such as pirating our vessels while on the way to your facilities.

Our Whiteboxes™ are equipped with cutting-edge technology that prevents them from being tampered with in any way possible. Result of such transgression is explosion that leaves nothing but emptiness out of our products. Imagine the scandal if somehow your civilians would be exposed to such security measure due to them believing it is absolutely fine to attempt what civilized and progressive legislative bodies call corporate espionage simply because there is no written law in Rheinland. We are well aware of countless attempts to steal and reverse-engineer our proprietary technology.

And while our corporations use it to provide interstellar travel to Sirius, we know of many organizations that would attempt to weaponize this technology. Imagine the consequences of your enemies gaining such a devastating weapon. We can strongly claim that we have not yet failed to repossess our Whiteboxes™ because Liberty allows us to protect it. We wish that Rheinland does not enable someone to weaponize the technology.

You are forcing us to answer question by putting pressure in implying that it is vital to the outcome of your decision. We would like to remind that while your house have nationalized the network at no point has your house been able to maintain it without involvement of our corporations. Even during wartime, we have upheld our obligation to provide services despite constantly being harassed and discriminated by your officers and looked down by your corporations. If that is not proof of our dedication to provide Sirius with continued faster-than-light travel, then we do not know what is.

Our corporations have many clients and many contracts that we are working on. We have to prioritize it all based on many factors. We do not refuse to repair the Jump Gate that has been collateral damage in assault on your border station but you have to understand that it is in your power to convince us that it should become number one priority for Ageira. Perhaps we should have waited to be approached by your government to judge how fast do you want our solution to your problem.

Sincerely,

John White,
President, Ageira Innovations
