As he perused miss Hunter's draft, Corvin felt a slight relief, seeing that things could for once be settled easily. Some mistypes were present, but dealing with semantics was really not an issue in this situation, so he nodded silently. Some of her comments were quite valid (such as the redundancy of numeral restrictions), but prior discussion between Corvin and the military staff ended with him having to propose those terms, even if only for the sake of some proper coordination.

As Richard ended his statements, the wording felt out of place. Nevertheless, the Minister had to reply, so he straightened his posture and spoke in a semi-formal tone.
"Admirably tailored words, miss Hunter, although i couldn't expect less from one of your... reputation. In any case, yes, I agree with these terms as well... so my only suggestion would be to amend the title of the document, so as to consider it final."

He paused momentarily, then continued firmly "That being said, I would suggest we 'shake on it', as some would say it, and consider the matter closed. As for the one-time provisions you mentioned..." - he took out a PDA - "I was expecting some credits to come into play, so I'm ready to complete a transfer now, as a gesture of good will, if you'll provide the required account information. The settlers for Pecos - we'll expect the IMG to confirm delivery within the week. I hope that's agreeable."
