Reaching an Agreement 계약조건 합의 Lesson16
Dialog

Kim Mr. Brown, I have some information regarding the two contract conditions you
wanted to know about.
Brown So, you've had enough time to discuss them?
Kim Yes, I've gone over the matters with staff here, about whether we could change
some contract terms, as you asked.
Brown I do apologize if we asked for too much. However, I also hope you've brought me
some good news.
Kim Let me begin with the wholesale pricing. Since it's our first time doing official
business together, we've decided to lower it by 3%, as you wanted.
Brown Oh, I'm so glad to hear that. Thank you.
Kim But, that change brings a request of our own. If the U.S. sales exceed the set
goal by 30%, then we'd like to have the profits divided on an 80/20 basis.
Brown So that would be Tycon receiving 80%, and NANO receiving 20%. I believe that
can be agreed to. I'll contact the U.S. headquarters right away.
Kim Now, as for the shipping date, we've come to the conclusion that it won't be
possible to move it up by 15 days.
Brown Well, that's regrettable, but understandable.
Kim However, judging from our current production rate, we can move it up by a week
for sure.
Brown Oh, even a week would be good. Now we'll be certain to meet the scheduled
launch date for the product promotion.
Kim I'm glad that's resolved, then. Please let me know if there is anything else we
can help with regarding the marketing.
Brown Thanks very much for the offer.
Kim Well, I believe we've settled everything of concern. We will rewrite the contract to
include these changes. And I believe we can finally sign it at our next meeting.
Brown Yes, I believe so, too. I'm really looking forward to signing off on the final
agreement. And thank you again for everything.
