Arranging further contacts with a company
| Mr Calder | Thank you very much for your help this morning, Mr Wallace, I think we've made a lot of progress on the matter of financing the deal. |
| Mr Wallace | Yes, I agree. It's been useful to clear the air in view of the initial difficulties we experienced. Presumably, this will not be our last meeting as we must await the final decision and then act quickly. |
| Mr Calder | Indeed. Do you know when that will be? |
| Mr Wallace | I've been promised an answer by the end of June, so if we say early July there will still be a couple of weeks before we close for the summer vacation. |
| Mr Calder | Fine. How about Monday the 3rd? |
| Mr Wallace | I can't make the morning, but I shall be free all afternoon. More importantly, the main people involved will be able to work on the final proposals that week. If we need to develop our plans further, bringing in other companies or arranging further contacts, there should be time enough to do that. |
| Mr Calder | So, shall we say 2 p.m. here? In the meantime we can still explore the possibilities or value of involving other parties both within and outside our companies. |
| Mr Wallace | Very well. I'll get that organized. I'll give you a ring by the 14th to confirm everything we might know by then. |
| Mr Calder | Right. Thanks again… Can I get to the carpark by going straight down in the elevator? |
| Mr Wallace | Yes. First floor, first door on the left. See you in July if not before. |

| Sr Velasco | Sí, estoy de acuerdo. Ha sido útil aclarar la situación en vista de las dificultades que se nos planteaban2 al principio. Probablemente ésta no sea la última reunion, ya que tenemos que esperar a que se tome la decision definitiva para luego actuar con rapidez. |
| Sr Caldas | Por supuesto. |
| Sr Velasco | Han prometido darme respuesta para finales de junio, así que si decimos que será a primeros de julio nos quedarán dos semanas antes de que cerremos por vacaciones. |
| Sr Caldas | Bueno. |
| Sr Velasco | Por la mañana no puedo, pero estaré libre toda la tarde. Aun más importante es que los principales participantes podrán trabajar en las propuestas finales esa semana. Sí tenemos que desarrollar más nuestros pla... |
