My name is Matthias D. Falkenrath and I am a House Director of Interspace Commerce. I am sure you are very busy the last seven days but I believe it's in your best interests to pay close attention to this message for it is an offer which you cannot refuse.
It should be noted that this is coming directly by the President and the Board who I will represent in this channel as the top negotiator.
We estimate that the economic state of the Core is rapidly worsening at this difficult hour for reasons which were covered and analyzed even by our own media. While we cannot sympathize with your actions especially those against civilians, we are as always trying to see the bigger picture. What lies beyond a mere conflict. And the truth is that the Core is the only organization which focuses on law, order and development of the Omicron region which we consider as the next Frontier in the upcoming centuries.
----------
We are offering a bailout plan Mr Nodtviet, a way out. Perhaps you consider us as opportunists coming to you at this time but don't forget that a number of organizations and business partners have abandoned you and sided with your enemies or simply remained uninvolved. You even managed to unite old and bitter enemies. So one thing is certain; you need to make new friends.
While a large loan for your bailout plan is the best way to wrap up your organizations' economics, we cannot do this for PR reasons. The public outcry would be too great. Instead we are interested in purchasing 55% of the total shares of AP Manufacturing. While the share's price has been diminished the past five days, the sheer number of purchased shares will be a huge economic boost for the Core.
Interspace Commerce extends a hand of cooperation to The Core and APM. We hope you will see this as the first step in a very fruitful and promising cooperation.
In Nodtviet's absence, as Assistant CEO I will be handling this matter.
Firstly I believe an apology is in order due to the amount of time it has taken to process this and for us to come to a decision.
The board of directors has discussed the idea of Interspace Commerce purchasing shares within AP Manufacturing, and we have decided in favor of the idea. An economic boost from such an esteemed Corporation such as yourselves will prove to be an excellent help to both our and The Core's operations.
Having financial backing will provide a much needed boost to the current economic situation and allow us to continue our operations.
If you wish to make the purchase, we will inform our financial department promptly.
I have informed the President and we are pleased to hear your positive response. In this message I will try to clarify some things which may concern you but also to make a few more propositions.
- Interspace Commerce as the new majority shareholder will request a special convention of the Board. There, among other things, we will support the current management of AP Manufacturing with Erik Nodtviet as the CEO and Jack Marston as the Assistant CEO. We consider both of you as critical components of APM and frankly no one can adequately fill your shoes. Finally, we will propose one of our most senior members, Hiro Nomura for the position of Chief Manager.
- The price of a APM share today is moving around of $145 SC. Which means the purchase of 55% of the total shares is estimated at $797,500,000,000. The price will be locked there and the money will be ready for transfer until Mr Nodtviet returns and formally signs the purchase as the incumbent CEO.
- The purchase contract will be written under Libertonian and Bretonian business law. Which means, in a case of dispute, Liberty and/or Bretonian courts may resolve a matter.
- I would also like to ask all of the APM official documentation to be updated in the coming months and mention IC's participation as the major shareholder. This is not urgent however.
----------
Moving on, this purchase has further repercussions; a strategic alliance and partnership between Interspace Commerce and APM/The Core is born and we believe it should be reflected in a number of ways.
1. Interspace Commerce vessels will receive a permanent visa in Core-controlled space. This is mostly for appearances, as you may well know we have a strong reluctance and opposition in the interaction with jump hole anomalies which we use only for emergencies.
2. The Core will be registered on the Interspace Commerce Megaboard and will receive the same special bonuses with the Bounty Hunters Guild.
3. Due to this close partnership, Interspace Commerce vessels bearing the IC| tag are allowed to purchase APM technology without additional fees and costs from the local ship vendors. Subsequent notification of APM registry for purchased technology however remains mandatory.
4. We will invite the reporters of IC News to improve the public image of the Core which is currently at an all-time low. For example, an exclusive first interview when Erik Nodtviet returns with one of our best reporters will be an excellent opportunity to start changing public opinion.
We will be eagerly expecting your responses on our message. Thank you for your time.

Mr. Falkenrath,
We, Nodtviet included, have come to a decision regarding your propositions and we fully accept them. Our documentation has been updated, and Interspace Commerce will receive permanent vias within Omicron Rho; however that still means you must stick to the allocated flight paths.
Unfortunately we must hold off the interview for now as Nodtviet was only able to come forward and help finalise the decision. He is unable to appear for a public appearance.
We look forward to all future and close cooperation between our organizations.
I would like to express Interspace Commerce's pleasure as the negotiations were extremely successful. A new era begins for the Core and the APM, an era which I wholeheartedly believe to be more bright than ever.
The funds of the purchase are being transferred as we speak, however considering its massive amount, we expect it will take a few hours before the entirety of the sum reaches your bank accounts.
Our reporters are ready for the exclusive interview of Mr Nodtviet, as soon as he is available you can contact the IC News to make the necessary arrangements. As for the publication of this purchase, it will be announced next Monday morning so that the markets have a full week to surge and support this economic development.
