Galaz update

Roxi Petroleum (AIM: RXP), the Central Asian oil and gas company with a focus on Kazakhstan, is pleased to announce that it has received the Article 71 pre-emption waiver from the Kazakh authorities in connection with the previously announced partial disposal of its interest in Galaz to LG International.

Article 71 of the Sub-Soil User law gives the Kazakh Government pre-emptive rights over the sale of any interests in oil and gas assets in Kazakhstan. Receipt of the Article 71 pre-emption waiver means that, for regulatory purposes, final completion of the transaction is now subject only to receipt of the approval from the Kazakh Monopolies and Mergers authority. A further announcement will be made in due course.
