Gentlemen, we have a problem.
It seems that the truce between our two fine organizations is being abused, and needlessly so. It has come to the attention of my business associates that the Colonial Fleet is using Java as a base of operations in Tau-23. Now, I don't think I need to explain to you why this is a problem for us. I won't belittle your intelligence in such a way.
So you see, there is no reason for me to believe that you are not in bed with our most frequent adversary. That makes you our enemy as well. However, I'm a reasonable businessman. If you agree to these terms, my boys won't reduce your mining fleet into Junker bait.
- The Colonial Fleet is to be barred from using Java.
- IMG| must pay a one time fee of 100 million credits for all the damage caused by Colonial Fleet attacks on our property.
- IMG| must pay a standard Sirius monthly fee of 50 million credits for the protection of your miners.
These are the terms. I would strongly suggest you comply. The alternative would be quite devastating to your operations, while also being quite profitable for ours. Oh and do decide quickly, I'm not getting any younger.

Well well, we were considering a negotiation but from the reports reaching my desk in the past 24 hours, it appears your triggerhappy pilots and hired goons have made the decision already on our behalf.
May your shields warp and fail, foolish Cartel..
..Oh, and by the way, the Colonial Remnant was able to dock on Java Station for quite some time now. It was only recently when we temporarily barred and re-granted them docking rights - you've never seemed to have had any qualms about it until now. Awell, it's not that it really matters anymore.
