Re: Mutually Beneficial Relationship

Konichiwa,

I am sure that by now you have heard of Renzu's presence in Oita. It is no big secret that we have just completed, with the help of others, our largest and grandest shipyard to date. What you may not know is that it is more than just a shipyard. It also houses our most extensive research laboratories. These labs are outfitted with the most sophisticated equipment on the market today.

In light of recent galactic events, Renzu extends an invitation. We invite you to set up offices on our shipyard and make use of our advanced research laboratories. At this time I am only empowered to offer offices on the shipyard, though, there will be no fees levied and no need to share the fruits of your research. The only thing we ask in exchange is that you allow us passage through Hiroshima into Kusari space. It is our hope that this offer will facilitate closer relations and result in strengthening both the KNF and Renzu.

Yours Sincerely,

Kei Marwick, Field Research Analyst, Member of the Board of Directors.
Renzu Corporation
