Dear DI associates,

I represent Private Holdings, SCAC (PH), an independent partnership financing traders and investors. We operate by sharing information on profit opportunities; organizing group-purchases of stock holdings and assets; and granting and recieving funding to and from our members.

One of our trusted members, arris, shared with us insider knowledge on your current plans of re-organizing your corporate base and going public on the Sirius Stock Market Exchange. Naturally, we are very interested in funding and investing on any and all newborn markets around all of Sirius. Arris has assured us your corporate ethics and methods are commendable, and conduct highly respectable. We have come to agree, that no such industry should go unsponsored.

We understand your planned initial worth before public stock exchange is 1 billion credits. PH is prepared to fund your corporate re-organization by securing 30% of your stock, namely with the amount of 300 million credits, payable immediately and before public share announcement. We wish to express our respect and good faith in you by not requesting discount prices normally associated with such pre-public stock exchange.

Your new share holders are:

arris (Junkers), holdings of 5% stock
arwyn (Junkers), holdings of 3% stock
Belicia Gerhardt (independent), holdings of 2% stock
Flea (Zoners), holdings of 5% stock
Mike Monroe (independent), holdings of 5% stock
Lilya (Zoners), holdings of 4% stock
Scavenger (Junkers), holdings of 2% stock
Silent.Day (mercenary), holdings of 2% stock

The reference IDs are attached to this message.

If securing our sponsorship is to your interest, we will organize the credit transaction as soon as you are ready. Please print out the necessary amount of stock certificates signed for the use of Private Holdings, SCAC, and have them delivered to New York, Rochester, D3, from where our representatives will pick them up for later distribution among stock holders. As we are a Societas Cooperativa Alpha Canis with unlimited liability, we are legally allowed to handle assets on behalf of our members.

Kind Regards,
