Subject: Barge repairing, rebuilding and modernization tender - contract final negotiating

Greetings to you, Mr. Lewis, or to anyone who will negotiate for the Ageira Technologies. As you maybe noticed, Ageira proceeded to the second and final round of our Barge repairing, rebuilding and modernization tender, together with Deep Space Engineering. Our Barge is from Thursday moored at Baltimore shipyard´s site number two waiting for begining of work which depends only on final negotiating about mentioned contract.

Your offer to make on our Barge all electronics and internal systems related work sounds very attractive for us because we consider Ageira as Sirius number one in this hi-tech branches. Due to this fact we want to offer this work to you, and the rest hull and engines related work, and defense and safety systems related work, to DSE. If we know it right, beginings of DSE and Ageira cooperation for example on trade lanes and jump gate building stems back hundreds of years, so we believe that this solution is possible and all work can be done at Baltimore Shipyard.

But there are some issues, propositions and changes that have to be negotiated. Barge purchase was very expensive and we have to save every credit in these days because our budget is not endless. For this reason, we want to ask you to change your price lower than 40 million credits. We belive that there are some possibilities because we got offers from other companies that are noticeably lower. We understand that your top work has its price which is higher, but we have our limits. We believe that if we for example deliver some needed resources instead of you buying them, it is possible. Please inform us what you can do or change about this price issue, we believe that it will not be necessary to entrust said work to other company.

We are looking forward to your answer, have a nice day!
