Subject: SBC Ownership Status

Secretary Hawthorne, Mr Veltman.

The President of Universal Shipping is very saddened as he has spent too much energy on this matter. Mr Veltman during a time when our House is being invaded you are mounting a legal challenge forcing us to spend time and money which would had been better allocated on improving the working conditions of our employees or ensuring that our great Navy remains well supplied while defending our House.

Where is your patriotism, Mr Veltman? Fortunately for us, this strife has come to an end.

Our legal team has uncovered that you have deceived us. The company you represent has no legal ownership over Sirius Base Construction. For a period of time last year you entered a partnership in which you used the station's facilities and covered some of the expenses but nothing which refers to ownership and so far you have failed to produce any document which confirms your claims. On the contrary, we signed a transfer of ownership at 29th November 825 A.S. which was confirmed in a separate letter by Josef Tomsovsky, CEO of Sirius Base Construction LTD.

This transfer was subsequently confirmed by the Government of Liberty:

We acknowledge the transfer of ownership. (...)

- William Hawthorne, Secretary of State for Trade and Economics

Mr Veltman if you or someone else from your company continues with this charade we will have to defend our interests and those of the Republic and activate FR5 protocols which will bar =DSE- from visiting any Universal station in Liberty, including Sirius Base Construction. On top of that we will file a Cease and Desist order as well as file charges of Deceit. Since Martial Law is in effect that would mean prison time on top of reparations by the Deep Space Engineers (=DSE-) to Universal Shipping Incorporated.

This is not our way but during a time of crisis we will not allow opportunists to take advantage of our weakened state.

Thank you.


Nicole Burton
Chief of Staff
Universal Shipping Inc.
