From: Sir William Burke - Director of Operations, Borderworld Exports Source: Glasgow Outpost, Leeds System, Bretonia To: Gateway Interstellar Board of Directors Re: Buyout Offer
It has come to our attention that your corporation is experiencing a transition. In these uncertain times, there is the potential for both great gain, and great loss. I am certain that you are considering all possibilities to prevent such loss, in both hard credits and investor confidence. As an insurance against any loss you might suffer, and the harm it would do to Bretonia as a whole, we offer this proposal.
We ask that you allow Gateway Interstellar to become a subsidiary of Borderworld Exports. In exchange for this, we are willing to offer a generous sum of 100 billion SSC (Sirius Standard Credits), which will certainly be enough to compensate your investors for any losses they might suffer. In addition, we will allow the current board to continue to oversee all Gateway operations, under the authority of the Bowex Board of Directors.
I will have my legal staff draw up the proper paperwork for your review. I trust that you will find our offer most satisfactory. We look forward to your response
UPDATE - CEO SEARCH Gateway Interstellar HQ, Kensington
From the Office of CEO and Chair, Alisdair Buchanan:
We are pleased to announce that talks are underway with a certain individual to fill the role of CEO for Gateway. We will keep the public apprised as to the progress of this discussion.
We have received the offer from Mr. Burke of Borderworlds Exports, and we can only conclude that Bowex is far too richly subsidized by the People of Bretonia if they have that kind of money to throw around. Suffice it to say, Gateway will not sacrifice its unique character for wealth, and certainly not to become part of Bowex. Mr. Burke will just have to get used to being second best in the markets in which we compete.
As to the offer by Mr. Phelps of AP Manufacturing, we will take it under consideration once a new CEO has been appointed.
Thank you for your attention to these matters.
Alisdair Buchanan,
CEO and Chair
Gateway Interstellar
