- 4. Our Purpose Today • Ask our existing shareholders to contribute to ERHC’s growth and therefore realizable shareholder value • Need to raise up to $45MM • Money will enable exploration in Kenya and Chad • Exploration will increase value of our assets and enhance shareholder value
- 5. Brief History • Through 2009 – Primary focus on deepwater JDZ assets – Unexpected results from drilling in the JDZ • 2010 – Awarded two Blocks in Sao Tome & Principe EEZ • 2011 – Awarded three Blocks in Republic of Chad • 2012 – Awarded Kenya Block 11A
- 6. Diversification Strategy • Transition from single-asset model to multi-asset model – Onshore assets complement more complex and demanding deepwater assets – More assets means more opportunities to win • Continuing to leverage home field advantage in Africa

- 10. Kenya Exploration Acreage Block 11A licensing history: Block 11A First demarcated as the larger block 10 and licensed to AMOCO in 1985. Block covered the whole of northwestern Kenya Amoco relinquished parts of the block after ground gravity and reconnaissance seismic (~250km) Block re-gazetted and licensed to CAMEC (Central Africa Mineral Exploration company) CAMEC’s term expired after acquiring aero gravity and magnetic data

Notes de l'éditeur
- During this presentation, management will provide an overview of its business strategy, discuss the technical aspects of its work programs in Kenya and Chad, highlight its plans for raising funds and explain how those funds will be used to enhance the value of the Company’s assets and enhance shareholder value. We also will set aside ample time for questions.I now turn the floor over to President and CEO Peter Ntephe…
- Our purpose today is to request you – our existing shareholders – to give us the means to increase the value of your shareholding by contributing to the growth of your Company. We intend to raise up to $45MM that will be used over the next two years to fund exploration work programs in Kenya and Chad. These programs are intended to boost shareholder value far in excess of amounts contributed and enable shareholders cash in on the enhanced valuation. We will provide details in a moment regarding our assets and why we are so excited about this opportunity to increase their worth and enhance shareholder value.
- In the past 3 years, we’ve gone from having only 3 JDZ blocks under definitive contract to having 3 blocks under contract in Chad and 1 further block contracted in Kenya. The size of acreage under ERHC’s control has more than tripled in that time. There are still more contracts on the horizon with negotiations proceeding apace in the EEZ and applications in progress in several African countries.
- We’re transitioning rapidly from owning only offshore assets operated for us by others to a focus on onshore assets, some of which this company expects to operate in its own right. It is a fundamental shift but one we expect if diligently pursued will better position the Company and its shareholders to reap significant and sustainable gains.
- The ultimate goal of course is to see that the benefit accruing to shareholders, in terms of realizable value of their investment in ERHC, is maximized
- I will now call on ERHC’s exploration manager, Mr. Gertjan Van Mechelen, to talk about the onshore assets in Kenya and Chad. Shareholders realize of course that the impending work programs and advance pecuniary obligations on these assets are the immediate reason why ERHC needs to raise money and to raise it fairly quickly. Gertjan?
- Location is on the intersection of Central African Rift System and the East African Rift System
- Recent success by Tullow south of our acreage in the Ngamia-1 well, oil with similar characteristics as found in Uganda.
- Global Gravity derived from Satellite measurements.
- The Global gravity does not show what locally acquired gravity shows as the presence of additional basins.
- Seismic imaging of the subsurface structure is poor on this 1986 vintage data. Improved seismic acquisition and processing techniques we hope will provide a better subsurface structure.
- Excellent reservoir rocks are present in outcrop. We hope to find these same reservoir rocks in the subsurface.
- Three block, but all under one PSC., which means these three block do not have separate obligations.
- Self explanatory slide
- Infra-structure put in place for both domestic consumption as well as export.
- Particularly the Chari Ouest III and BDS2008 are located along the Central African Shear Zone (CASZ)
- Focus on areas close to proven oil.
- Regional stratigraphy mapping indicate presence of alluvial fan deltas and lacustrine deltas in our areas of interest providing both reservoir and seal rocks.
- During peak oil generation oil (70-100 mya) would have moved already towards the edges of the basin prior to later structuring.
- Similar structural style as seen in the OPIC’s Benoy-1 discovery is expected to the east in our Focus Area 2
- Griffith, who hold the acreage south of BDS2008 shows proposed infra-structure in which future discoveries could be tied in.
- Thank you, Gertjan. I will now call on Mr. Sylvan Odobulu, ERHC’s Vice President and Controller, to present on our fund raising plans and objectives.
- SYLVAN:Thank you, Peter. Our assumption is that we will not accept a farm-in partner through year two of our exploration work programs. This is a conservative assumption that we believe is in the best interests of shareholders. We will therefore need to raise up to $45 million over the next 18 months for our exploration programs in Kenya and Chad. The most feasible option open to us is equity finance. We plan to proceed by a rights offering to existing shareholders and registered direct offerings to new ones.
- The shareholder approval to increase the authorized share capital gives us the number of shares needed to undertake meaningful rights offering to our existing shareholders. We shall be announcing the terms of a rights offering shortly, approval having now been given to the increase in authorized share capital. The rights offering will give our existing shareholders the right to purchase shares in proportion to their existing holding
- Subject to final consultations with our advisers, we expect that oversubscription privileges will be provided as part of the rights offering to enable willing shareholders take up any shares offered under the rights offering that are unsubscribed at the end of the exercise.
- A rights offering gives shareholders the opportunity to participate fully in the Company’s growth while avoiding dilution. Of course, no shareholder is under any compulsion to participate in the rights. I will now hand back to Peter to explain the ERHC value proposition.
- PETER: The E&P value proposition is a unique one. The excisable value proposition of the ‘E’ in E&P – that is, exploration – is even more unique. It is a high-risk, high reward proposition that is not necessarily predicated on cash flow and might not even involve the discovery of hydrocarbons.
- To increase the value of your Company, to increase the money you can make from this Company, we need to spend money to enhance the assets – up to $45mm assuming we don’t take a farm in partner before then. This is the value proposition of E&P. The more money you can spend on developing the asset, the more you can potentially reap from the investment
- In summary, ERHC is positioned to get started with exploration work programs in Kenya and Chad. As we’ve described, we have every reason to be excited about the prospectivity of our target areas. What needs to happen next is raising funds. We understand that existing shareholders are concerned about dilution, which is why we plan a Rights Offering, which will allow existing shareholders to participate and avoid dilution. Our overriding objective is to grow and diversify the Company while adding value to our assets and to shareholders’ value.This completes our management presentation. Thank you for your interest and attention. Dan Keeney is in the audience with a microphone if anyone has questions.
- Thanks, Peter. If anyone has questions, please raise your hands. We ask that you keep any comments to no more than a minute. If you have more than one question, we can come back to you, but we want to be sensitive to everyone’s time and give everyone an opportunity to ask a question.
