Taking over the triple-roller-bending machine and pre-bending press from your factory at Belfort.

We refer to the conference of 16 February with the military commander in France at the Military Economics and Armament Office [Wi-Rue — Amt-Wirtschaftsruestungsamt], in which Mr. Arnold* took part on your behalf.

We have meanwhile been empowered by the High Command of the Navy to carry on negotiations with you on the basis of the evaluation made for the information of the OKW. In conformity with this evaluation we offer you for the confiscated sheet bending machine No. 63250 and the pre-bending press No. 63240 inclusive of accessories, from you, the sum of 108,700 Reichsmarks.

In offering the full amount fixed in the evaluation we have gone as far as possible towards coming to terms with you.

During the above-mentioned conference you were already advised of the channels through which you could put forward possible further claims via the appropriate Prefecture.

We request that you inform us of the acceptance of our offer as soon as possible, so that we can make the necessary arrangement for remittance of the amount due to you.
