Re: Passage Rights

Konichiwa,

Renzu, and myself, thank you for allowing us passage through your system. We will, of course, conform to your stipulations. We will allow no ships other than Renzu| ships to accompany us through your system. Sadly, due to losses such as the theft of our Ki models, we do not currently have 150,000,000 credits at our disposal. Our company is worth far more than that, but it is tied up in solid assets. We will be seeking methods of raising this amount as quickly as possible. In the meantime, would it be possible to work out a temporary allowance based on a down payment and/or promissary note? Renzu, of course, will not cross into your system until such an agreement is made or we are able to raise the payment necessary.

Yours Sincerely,

Kei Marwick, Head of Research and Development.
Renzu Corporation
