Dear Scirocco Shareholders
Re- The Sale of Ruvuma
I am contacting you as you may still hold shares in Scirocco, previously known as Solo Oil. On Monday, the Board announced that Ruvuma, our Tanzanian Asset, was to be sold to Wentworth for US$16 million. Over the last 10 plus years Solo, now Scirocco have invested approximately $25 million in Tanzania and the asset was due to produce its first revenue in approximately 2 years time, which would have been substantial. The sale to Wentworth is far less than the asset is worth and the monies also will be payable to Scirocco over many years, if at all. In essence, the deal is an awful one and the only beneficiaries are likely to be Wentworth and the Board, who will no doubt siphon the money off in salaries in the coming years.
The only way to stop this, is to vote against the deal and then we can work on removing this shocking Board of Directors and replacing them with a Board that has its shareholders interests at heart.
I would like to keep a record of votes cast and therefore would appreciate it if you could email me back with the amount of shares held and how you voted.
Any questions, please feel free to come back to me.
Regards
Simon ( BigDouble)
