Salutations.
Recently, our company launched its Exploration Division, devoted to seeking out and finding new and exciting tourist destinations across the galaxy. In our research, we determined that one of, possibly the best-quality exploration vessels available is your "Spatial" class explorer. We would like access to this fine vessel for use in scouting out potential tourist hotspots.
In exchange for access to the Spatial, we can offer you access to one of the pinnacles of Spa and Cruise engineering: the "Democritus" class luxury yacht. Each and every Democritus is kitted out with twin countermeasures, a hefty power core, opulent interiors and, defensively, the capacity to fire a Gunboat turret. It has, as the advertisement goes, enough firepower to knock a small moon out of orbit. It would make a perfect ship for diplomatic meetings, recreation and getting your executives where they need to go in style.
Please advise if you are interested as soon as possible, so we can formalise the deal.

RE: Procurement of E78-12 "Spatial" Deep Space Explorers
Greetings Mr. Hargrave,
The IMG is very interested in allowing Pangalactic Travel Company the access to these fine craft of ours. However, I doubt that we would be able to find a use for one of your fine yachts. Perhaps for our Guildfunds administration but.. It's just not our style, I suppose.
Is there any chance that you would be willing to pay a royalty of sorts for access? If so, please state what you beleive would be a reasonable offer and we shall consider it.

Ah, I'm afraid we've had a misunderstanding. We're not offering you one yacht, we're offering unlimited yachts, to be put to whatever use you please.
If not, then perhaps a flat royalty of, say... three million credits per ship, on top of the cost of the ships themselves? To be paid directly to the IMG.

RE: Procurement of E78-12 "Spatial" Deep Space Explorers
Apologies for the late reply.. A particuarly large amount of paperwork has invaded my desk recently and it is taking a while to clear it all.
While unlimited yachts are tempting, my original thoughts remain the same - I just do not see use having any use for them in our current industry and areas of operation. If you don't mind paying a royalty though, your suggested 3 million credits per ship does sound acceptable.
For direct payment, please send via echeque to IMG|Guildfunds. If you have any other enquiries or offers, please voice them over this frequency.
Thankyou for considering the E78-12 "Spatial" in being an integral art of your company's fleet.
