Esteemed Director,
We wish to remind that the fine intended is only mentioned as a token fine to cover superficial damage suffered by several vessels and the incident itself. The Admiralty Board holds great interest in securing Johnny's Office as a close collaborator of Her Majesty's Armed Forces and as such we believe it to be of utmost importance to receive permission to view contracts offered to several groups of interest to the Kingdom of Bretonia, amongst which are the following: The Corsair Empire; The Empire of Rheinland, The Republic of Liberty, The Empire of Kusari, The Technocracy of Auxo, the Mollys, the Gaians and, finally, any Gallic-affiliated contacts (with the notable exceptions of the Maquis, Brigands and Unione Corse).
As we trust that there are no such issues at present, we are willing to lower the fine to only a symbolic 25 million Sirius Credits instead of the original 50 million or the proposal 100 million. In addition, we remain open to discussing other terms to better fit in with our requirements for accessing contracts operated by Johnny's Office with the entities priorly-mentioned, such as offering a standard payment to view the channels, amongst others.
We hope that Johnny's Office stands firmly alongside the Admiralty Board in addressing these concerns. The terms have been amended as mentioned.
The Armed Forces (further: BAF) hereby retract the bounty issued on personnel of Johnny's Office (further: the Office);
The Kingdom of Bretonia shall welcome the Office to operate within the borders;
BAF offers the Office access to the Contracts Board;
The Kingdom of Bretonia will cover the total medical expenses of injured Office personnel;
The Office will receive quarterly tasks for the Crown of Bretonia.
The Office agrees to pay a total of 25 million Sirius Credits as a fine;
The Office solemnly engages by the present agreement to permit BAF access to all communications done by the Office with the following entities: The Corsair Empire; The Empire of Rheinland, The Republic of Liberty, The Empire of Kusari, The Technocracy of Auxo, the Mollys, the Gaians and any Gallic-affiliated contacts (with the notable exceptions of the Maquis, Brigands and Unione Corse).
As per article 4 of the initial section, the Office agrees to accept contracts from the Crown of Bretonia. In return, 50% of contract value will be paid upon initialization.
