Dear fellow Tap Oil Shareholder,
Attached please find a market update that we would like to share following the close of Risco's on-market takeover offer on 31 August 2018. Briefly:
Risco now holds 44.1% of Tap shares and is the largest shareholder
Mr Chris Newton, Risco's nominee director, has been re-appointed to Tap's Board
Risco will be seeking to increase its Board representation in line with its shareholding
Risco anticipates that the Tap Board will commit to executing the Harvest Strategy and put appropriate personnel in place to ensure its successful implementation
Risco expects Tap's cash position to grow from the Harvest Strategy roll-out that will leverage Manora's cash generation ability and from the monetisation of the Australian assets portfolio
Risco is committed to a Board that is focused on running Tap's business successfully
Please refer to our attached market update for further information.
Yours sincerely,
Tom Soulsby
Chief Executive Officer Risco Energy Investments (SEA) Limited
