The Director of Finance, William Seaton, has invited you into his office.
"This will come as a bit of a shock, but the Board has decided that it would be in our best interests to relocate our Head Office from Kayland to the Middle East. We have interests there, including a regional office, already. We know that the oil industry is welcome and there are several governments which are very open to such foreign direct investment from the West.
Nothing has been decided for certain, but there are compelling tax advantages to us relocating. We would also be subject to slightly less restrictive legal requirements. We can retain our listing on the Kayland stock exchange, albeit as a foreign company.
Things are very much under consideration at the moment, so please don't tell anybody about this conversation.
I want to check that I have thought of everything at the strategic level before we make an irreversible decision to move. I need you to write me a report on the following:
* What are the strategic implications of moving our Head Office from Europe to the Middle East?
* What are the strategic risks that might arise and how might we deal with them?
I need to have your thoughts soon because the Board is holding a special meeting this afternoon."

Memorandum of Understanding between Fouce Oil and Slide
It is proposed that Fouce Oil and Slide will temporarily combine their exploration activities, with Slide taking overall control in recognition of the greater expertise of its professional exploration staff.
This collaboration will work as follows:
1. Slide will take responsibility for the management and operation of all future exploration activities for the two companies, with effect from 1 October 2015.
2. Fouce Oil will second all of its professional oil exploration staff to Slide. Fouce will continue to employ these staff and will pay their salaries.
3. Slide will brief Fouce Oil's professional oil exploration staff on all operational matters relating to exploration activities for the duration of this arrangement.
4. The provisions of paragraph 3 will apply to any projects in which Slide participates with third parties on a farm-in or other joint venture basis.
5. In recognition of Slide's greater expertise, Fouce Oil will offer its entire portfolio of existing exploration rights to this venture, without any charge to Slide. Fouce Oil will also pay for 55% of any and all exploration costs, leaving Slide responsible for the remaining 45%.
6. The revenues from all successful discoveries will be shared equally by Slide and Fouce Oil. In the event that either party wishes to sell an oil well, the other will have the option of purchasing the other's rights for 50% of the well's agreed valuation.
7. This arrangement will be subject to review at the end of five years and annually thereafter. In the event that either party wishes to discontinue the arrangement, all ongoing exploration projects will be drawn to an orderly conclusion.
Signed
Thomas Yip, Chief Executive Officer, Fouce Oil
Andrew Jones, Chief Executive Officer, Slide

Topic 3, Norland Telegraph (NEW)
Arrfield targeted by environmentalists

Environmental campaigners have criticized fuel suppliers at Norland's airports for selling aviation fuel more cheaply than in other countries The N$ is strong, making it possible to import fuel more cheaply Most suppliers are passing some of the savings on to airlines in order to boost revenues.
Airlines are responding by buying more when they refuel aircraft in Norland This means they need to buy less fuel for the return flight from their destination Environmentalists are concerned because this means that aircraft are carrying tonnes more fuel on their outward journeys and so consume more fuel and cause more pollution in the process.
Airlines refer to this as "tankerage" because aircraft are effectively acting as fuel tankers on their outbound journeys An airline spokesperson defended the practice, stating that it is a cheaper way to fly even though fuel consumption is increased.

Subject: Yesterday's Board meeting
Hi,
One of my fellow Board members made a brief presentation to the Board. I am attaching the slides that were used in this presentation.
I have to say that I thought that some of the advice being offered to the Board was incorrect, but I would rather make a positive contribution to the discussion and so I said very little.
I need you to email me your thoughts on the following:
* Your views on the presentation relating to tax matters
* Your views on the briefing relating to the decision making process
* Your views on the briefing's recommendations on driving performance
* Finally, an alternative briefing note on driving performance. Ideally, that should be two or three headings, with a clear explanation for each.
As usual, this is urgent. Many thanks for your help so far with this project.

Subject: News article
Hi,
My Secretary has drawn my attention to the attached newspaper clipping. I have been reading comments like this since Fouce Oil acquired its interest in 2010. We briefed the press at the time and made it clear that we would not be commenting further on our relationship with it unless it changed materially. Nothing has happened since then to make us change our mind on that.
The Board has asked me to compile a report on the following:
* How might the presence of Fouce Oil, as a 25% shareholder, affect our decision making as a Board of Directors? Perhaps, surprisingly, we have never had a formal discussion of this matter.
* How will Fouce Oil's stake in Slide affect our share price?
I would like you to email me your thoughts on these points so that I can have as long as possible to think about what I will say to the Board.
Thanks
William

Hi
This email arrived last night. I need you to help me to think through the various implications of doing what it suggests before I present it to the Board. I need you to focus on the following issues:
* Would this proposal make sense from a strategic point of view?
* If we did decide to go ahead, what would be the issues that we would have to consider with respect to informing the stock market?
Could you please email me your thoughts within the next hour? I have to brief the Board later today.
Thanks
William
