Chairman Ejo,
The Reigonal Transit Corporation accepts the application of the City of Kanjin and the greater metropolitan area, and we look forward to establishing operations in North Quandana.
Our contract will be valued at an annual payment of $25 million NSDs per year from the City of Kanjin to the Regional Transit Corporation for us to operate a public transit system in your country. This assumes that we will operate on normal roads, but busier streets will have certain lanes become bus only lanes during rush hour, in order to maximize the number of busses on the roads when traffic is busiest. We are looking forward to what is a fantastic opportunity, as in a metro area with over 11 million people, the potential for success is sky high- and we look forward to being able to meet the high bar you are setting for us.
And, of course, all local employees will be made full voting members of the International Division of the Transport Workers Union.
We hope this deal is acceptable.

Rəşad Huseynov,
The Reigonal Transit Corporation accepts the application of the Aşgabat Regional Transportation District for us to use public transporation in your country. WE look forward to establishing a working school district bussing system in your city.
For a region of that size, the ability for us to operate that transportation system is absolutely unprecedented. Over 87 million people in that metropolitan area- that is a big challenge and a large task, but one that we are capable of fulfilling. Of course, with that system, we are going to offer a contract of $120 million NSDs per year, payable annually from the relevant authority to the RTC. Of course, the cost is higher, but we expect the rest to be covered by fees, and we are taking note of the very generous foreign corporate tax rate of less than 1%. That is less than $2 NSDs per person, and, of course, we will ensure that your systems run efficiently, on time, and able to fulfill the massive capacity required for a system to be strong in a region this size.
We take note of local laws about union membership. We generally operate under a Collective Bargaining structure, however, we will work with local governmental authorities to ensure that even non-union employees are offered a fair compensation package.
We hope this deal is acceptable.

Biru AbateExecutive Vice President of International Expansion
