Ladies and Gentlemen:
The undersigned, having received and read your prospectus supplement dated December 27, 2012 (the “Prospectus Supplement”), understand that as shareholders of ERHC ENERGY INC. (the “Company”) as of December 17, 2012 (the “Record Date”), they are being given basic subscription rights entitling them to subscribe for up to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock shown above, at a subscription price of $0.075 per share.
The undersigned further understand that if and only if they fully exercise their basic subscription rights, they are also being given an over-subscription privilege allowing them to subscribe for an unlimited number of additional shares (up to the total number of shares offered) of the same, subject to availability. The precise number of shares subject to the over-subscription privilege cannot be determined until it is known how many shares remain available after the exercise of all shareholders’ basic subscription rights. If sufficient shares of common stock are available, over-subscription requests will be honored in full. If over-subscription requests exceed the number of shares available, the available shares of common stock among rights holders who exercise their over-subscription privileges will be allocated pro ratably among them, based on the respective number of shares such shareholder held as of the Record Date over the outstanding shares of the common stock at the Record Date (in each case, without giving effect to the number of shares subscribed for under the basic subscription privilege), as described in the Prospectus Supplement. The basic subscription right and the over-subscription privilege are referred to collectively as the “subscription rights.” For more information concerning the subscription rights, please refer to the Prospectus Supplement.
Subscription rights are irrevocable once delivered as provided herein and may not be withdrawn without the consent of the Company.
Subscription rights must be exercised prior to 5:00pm, central time, on January 31, 2013 (the “Expiration Date”), and unexercised rights at the Expiration Date will expire without value.
Neither the Company nor its board of directors or management makes any recommendation to any shareholder as to whether to exercise the subscription rights. Each shareholder must make his or her own decision whether to exercise subscription rights and purchase shares and, if so, how many shares to purchase. Each shareholder is urged to carefully review the information contained or referred to in the Prospectus Supplement when deciding whether to exercise his or her subscription rights to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock.
The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that, if the Company’s determines in its sole discretion that the distribution of the subscription rights to the undersigned would require that the undersigned obtain prior clearance or approval from any state, federal or non-U.S. regulatory authority for the ownership or exercise of such subscription rights (or the ownership of additional shares pursuant to the exercise thereof), then such subscription rights are null and void and may not be held or exercised by the undersigned.
By properly completing, executing and timely delivering this Subscription Rights Agreement, accompanied by payment in full for the shares subscribed for hereby, the undersigned indicates his or her intention to subscribe to that number of shares of the Company’s common stock as set forth herein, upon the terms and subject to the conditions specified in the Prospectus Supplement.
PLEASE PRINT ALL INFORMATION CLEARLY AND LEGIBLY
