"We are very pleased to have achieved successful completion of this transaction which gives Zenith monthly oil production revenue of approximately US\$400,000.

Ezzaouia has significant unexploited potential which we intend to develop progressively via a combination of workover and drilling activities to be commenced following consultation with our partners in the very near future.

In addition, we have further reinforced our settlement in Tunisia, enabling a demonstration of our technical and financial capabilities locally.

The Board strongly believes in Zenith's successful establishment in Tunisia and we intend to capitalise on certain additional possible acquisition opportunities that may present themselves in the nearterm."
