Subject: Purchasing Shares in MAN SE

Security Level: Private and Encrypted

Greetings Mr. Jackson Fitzgerald,

I am contacting you today with two financial proposals. The first concerning MAN SE. Our state owned GDE is looking to acquire shares in MAN SE to fill out our Logistics Capability Catalog. We would like the opportunity to buy all available shares if they are for sale. If you didn't want to sell the entirety of the stock, we would be also open to buying a small portion of the shares. We wanted to gauge your interest in this proposed idea before putting any concrete numbers together.

The second concerns pricing for variants of the Panavia Tornado. We are looking for specifically pricing on the following variants:

Panavia Tornado ECR
Panavia Tornado ADV F3
Panavia Tornado IDS

We are looking roughly 400 total of the Panavia Tornados of vaious model variants. We are hoping that we could negotiate for a discount due to the large amount of aircraft being purchased.

Thank you in advance.

Regards,
Volker Rühe
Minister of Defense
Federal Republic of Germany
