Mr. Doe, I congratulate both of our companies on massive success of the Cold Lake Project so far. Our coordinated effort yielded a technological miracle of a sort, another milestone in great history of cooperation between DSE and Ageira Technologies.
However, I see an opportunity to take our joint effort in this project to a new level. As we are going to face even bigger challenges moving this project forward, it would be much better to face them being strong in unity.
Therefore, I propose to convert the Cold Lake Project into something new and different, backed by our companies acting as a whole, the Cold Lake Consortium. This entity will focus solely on establishing Hypergate connections between Houses of Sirius.
Please, see the attachment for detailed proposal for the Consortium. Let me know if you agree with the listed conditions or if you want to make adjustments of any kind.
Preamble
The Cold Lake Consortium (referred as The Consortium throughout this document) is a joint venture by DSE and Ageira to develop innovative interstellar transportation technology. This technology advances the existing Jump Gates by employing recent discoveries in the field of spatial manipulations and FTL travel.
Participating entities and governance model
The Consortium is founded by Deep Space Engineering and Ageira Technologies. Each corporation invests 50% of the authorized capital of The Consortium in form of cash investment and/or material assets. The Governance Board of The Consortium will include 6 (six) Directors. All decisions are made by voting of the Board. Each Director has one voice. Each founding corporation of The Consortium appoints 3 Directors. The Board appoints CEO of The Consortium by unilateral vote. The CRO becomes 7th member of The Board with one voice.
Authorized capital
The authorized capital of The Consortium is 10 billion credits. The Appendix A to this document contains the exact list of assets provided by each participating corporation to the authorized capital, and the amount of monetary investment.
Goals and objectives
Now with building of Experimental Hyper Gate in Alberta finished, The Consortium will focus on the following objectives:
- Build the second Hyper Gate at carefully selected site and establish connection between the two Gates.
- Raise 4 billion credits in charges for transportation through the Hyper Gate by providing limited access to military and selected corporate vessels.
Upon successful closure on these objectives, The Board will discuss and set new objectives for The Consortium, or agree to activate Exit Conditions clause (see below).
Exit conditions
When all goals set before The Consortium are met, the Board initiates the liquidation process. All material assets included in the Authorized Capital are returned to their respective owners. All financial assets in The Consortium’s disposal and all possible debt is taken in equal shares by the participating corporations.
Appendix A Ageira Technologies Assets
- Leduc Station (Alberta system, sector G4) (est. value 4 billion credits)
- 1 billion credits in cash Deep Space Engineering Assets
- Experimental Jump Gate (Alberta system, sector G3) (est. value 4 billion credits)
- 1 billion credits in cash
Total
10 billion credits in cash and assets estimated value.
I hope all has been well for you and your family. I too am quite proud of our achievements in the Cold Lake nebula, the leap in technology we have developed has affirmed our belief that anything is possible with the right minds for the task. And for that I commend your scientists for the shear determination they have displayed in pushing through the barriers we faced at every corner.
We're pleased with the outline displayed below, however allow me a week to view it over and assess what further assets maybe available should we need it. We have other assets in the area should we need to raise capital to further the project along.
Have you decided where you wish The Consortium to base it's head office? May I suggest Toronto as it has more then ample facilities to accommodate all of The Consortium's needs. It is also local to the area and the Gate is in close proximity.
I appreciate your openness to closer cooperation between our corporations. I don't see any obstacles for establishing headquarters of the Consortium on Toronto station. Its locations and amenities seem to perfectly fit for this.
Regarding additional assets to spare to the project, I believe that a few research and transport ships might be useful at initial stage. I will dispatch Grizzly-class shuttle, callsign Ageira~Tango-11, for the needs of the Consortium.
Let me know about your decision. We are clear to proceed with necessary paperwork if we have principal agreement on this matter.
Mr. Anderson, there's been a change in leadership in the DSE, My name is Dan Gunsmith and i am very happy to meet you. Putting this to the side, i have revised all that's been said and written so far, We in the DSE HC have decided to continue on this great scientific journey with your people. The men are strong of heart and are eagerly awaiting the starting date. Now that willingness is here dear Mr. Anderson, all that is left is proper paperwork and we can start making history for the people of Sirius
It is disheartening to hear about Mr. Doe's demise. On the other hand, I appreciate your willingness to pick up the business from him, Mr. Gunsmith, and I am looking forward for great cooperation with you.
Now that we are in general agreement about the terms and conditions of this undertaking, we can just sign the memo and move to other important matters. I'm sending you a signed copy of the document so you could sign it from your side and send it back.

Thank you for prompt response, Mr. Gunsmith. The final task that we as heads of the respective corporations have to complete before the Consortium can start working on its goals is to appoint 6 Directors for the Board.
As a leader of Ageira Innovations, I suggest that 3 seats in the Board are taken by:
- Dr. Clarissa Fairchild, deputy director of Science Division and leader of the Dark Matter Lab at Ageira Innovations.
- Archer Dallas, deputy director of Engineering Division within Ageira Innovations.
- Edison Lawrence, managing director of Legal Department at Ageira Innovations.
I'm looking forward to hear from you regarding DSE appointees for the Board of Directors, Mr. Gunsmith.
