Konnichiwa
Dear Madam or Sir of the honoured Gas Miners’ Guild.
First of all, I am the speaker of the new owners of Valkyrie Production Facility, located in Sigma-13 system.
We are free and independant men, who wish to work in peace with their neighbours and, of course, with the GMG as the highest authority and the legislative power in Sigma 13.
While we’re not sure about the actual status of our base, we hereby ask the GMG fort he permission to declare our base as a legal one.
To make your decision easier for you, let me give you some explanatios:
Like I said above we are some independant business men, not organized in faction or groups.
Our first goal after we’ve bought the base is the production of 1 hyperspace Survey modul and a Jump Drive, which we plan to mount on one of our ships and then to test it. If these tests are successful ,we will use the factory moduls to produce these equipments and sell in on the legal markets oft he Sirian houses. Of course, if the GMG is interested to buy from us, we’ll give you a very special discount.
After reorganizing the base we’ll try to establish Valkyrie as a place of transshipment, so that we can make our profit with a small margin between buying and selling price.
What we won’t do, is: Using Valkyrie as a base for miners. We don’t deploy any of our own minig ships, because these ships are needed in other systems, we have no experienxe in He-3 mining and first of all, we respect the property of GMG as the only He-3 miners in Sigma-13.
And, of course, this base is no safe heaven for pirates: No Corsairs, no Blood Dragons, no Golden Chrysanthemum, no Hogosha, no Outcast, noone else, who pirates any where in the Sirian systems. There will be no docking rights for all oft hem.
We don’t need to mention that the GMG will get full docking rights at Valkyrie Production Facility.
We assure the GMG that we will follow you as the legal authority in Sigma-13.
As a summary I can say that Valkyrie Production Facility is planned in the first line as a place of production, and furthermore as a place of trade, not as a mining base and in no case as a pirate base.
I hope this information will help you to find a decision and you will declare Valkyrie Production Facility as a legal one in Sigma-13.
If you need more information, please ask and we will answer.
Looking forward to hear from you
Faithfully yours
Plan-B

Konnichiwa Plan-B (Valkyrie PF Administrator),
After several weeks of Martial Law established in Sigma-13 our reports reveal all to be quiet.
The trade lanes are operating at peak efficiency and piracy at a low.
We are only left to resolve this inconvenient illegal status of your station (Valkyrie Production Facility).
The Guild Masters and I have a proposal to resolve this unfortunate situation.
Your station located in Sigma-13 (known name: Valkyrie Production Facility) referenced here as “VPF”.
First and foremost, one must pay for their past infractions.
VPF must pay a fine of 350,000,000 to GMG. Payable to GMG|Rokkasho
VPF, employees, sub vendors, and visitors must comply with GMG Territory Laws while in GMG space. GMG Territory Laws
VPF must maintain active docking rights for all GMG vessels.
Active transponder “GMG|” loaded into your docking protocol at all times.
VPF must not allow docking rights to individuals and ships classified as criminals to GMG.
VPF must not maintain storage of Helium-3 or sell Helium-3.
If all of the above are completed and maintained, VPF will hold a legal status to reside in Sigma-13.
Limited to current location [grid C2].
Rest assured, GMG is watching our space. Any future transgressions will be resolved appropriately.
On a positive note, I look forward to conducting business with your Facility if you are willing.
I do believe your resources might suffice a need.
We are considering a lift of Martial Law on Sigma-13 depending several matters, one being your reply.

Of course we agree to your demands.

The docking rights for all ships of the Gas Miners‘ Guild are confirmed. No docking rights for ships of criminals or enemies oft he Gas Miners‘ Guildwill be allowed.
I assure you that all people working at or for Valkyrie Production Facility will comply with the GMG territory laws.
