obligations of SEG to BP under the terms of a guarantee from SEG to BP dated 28
April 2005 (the "GUARANTEE") and under an option agreement between BP and SEG
dated 28 April 2005 (the "OPTION AGREEMENT").
BP has pursuant to a deed of release (the "DEED") dated today's date released
and discharged SEG of all obligations under the Guarantee. Further, the Option
Agreement (the "OPTION") has terminated in accordance with its terms as of
today's date and SEG has no further obligations to BP thereunder.
BP hereby acknowledges that the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Pledge)
have been released, discharged, cancelled and/or terminated and therefore, in

the Pledge has with effect from today's date terminated and all rights to the
Collateral (as defined in the Pledge) have reverted to SEG.
Yours faithfully
