Sender: Nicole Burton Recipient: Steve Veltman, Secretary Hawthorne Subject: SBC Ownership Status
Mr Veltman,
As I said before we are not going to respond to you any longer, and only answer if you provide us with evidence. USI welcomes the fact that you retracted your previous (and outrageous) message.
Now to answer your last message.
You are referring to a partnership but that not mean you have ownership also. As a matter of fact you have never provided this channel with the contract details you signed with SBC LTD. From what I understand you were making use of the station's facilities in exchange for supplies and covering the monthly payments to Liberty's government. My legal team believes that you deliberately did not share the contract details because that will weaken your legal position even further.
Furthermore, this partnership you established with SBC LTD took place last May. Universal Shipping Incorporated arrived 6 months later and our employees found a decaying station. It did not have enough oxygen, it did not have enough food for the crew and even the hull integrity of the station was in a sorry state. It is obvious that whatever partnership you had with SBC LTD had long been terminated unless you want to tell Secretary Hawthorne and Liberty's government that treating your employees like this is a common practice by the Deep Space Engineers.
Finally, why even in the original lease contract to USI -- which you claim that you agreed to -- it does not make any reference to Deep Space Engineers or =DSE-? If you were really co-owners of SBC as you claim, then why it does not mention you?
Univeral Shipping Incorporated wants answers to all of these questions. I think it has become crystal clear to everyone watching this conversation that you have no counter-arguments to offer. Your attempts to deceive the government of Liberty will fail Mr Veltman.
Thank you.
Nicole Burton
Chief of Staff
Universal Shipping Inc.
