Marcus,
Terrific catching up at the hotel terrace during the visit. Glad the hospitality suite met
expectations. Regarding our discussion on the 10PB flash array: my VP of operations has reserved
the units in our Frankfurt warehouse as agreed. We just need the formal PO signed by end of
week so we can hit our Q4 targets. Let me know once the sole-source paperwork clears.
Best,
Derek

Derek,
Understood. I will expedite the sole-source exemption through internal procurement on October 11.
Ensure your delivery team holds the hardware allocation.
