PM RODA & ASSOCIATES SOLICITORS AND ADVOCATE/NOTARY PUBLIC THE FORUM BUILDING, 14TH FLOOR, MAUDE & FIFTH STREETS, SANDTON, JOHANNESBURG 2196, SOUTH AFRICA. LIASON: LIBERIA; LAGOS; NIGERIA. OUR REF: PMR/87953/562/04 DATE: 11-08-2004. From: Peter Mutumba (SAN) Attorney to Mr. Charles Taylor On behalf of my client Mr. Charles Taylor, and the entire staff at the chambers, I am Barr. Peter Mutumba, personal legal representative and counsel to Mr. Charles Taylor, former president of Liberia who even at the present is our principal client at the chambers. In contacting you, i have every endorsement, acting on the instruction of the afore-mentioned Charles Taylor and Family, to present this letter to you under caution of same in my capacity to provide legal services to the same. Mr. Charles Taylor, through his Property manager, has instructed me to contact you for participation in the investment of part of his life savings, having stepped down from his former position. Owing to his Asylum status in Nigeria, it has been difficult for my client to invest his life savings while taking asylum in Nigeria, with the restrictions and poor economic situation of the Nigerian nation. Also with the intention to hand over all financial concerns to his son, Mr. Taylor intends to have such money invested in his sons interest/supervision, with a view to giving the rest of the family something to hope on in future, as his condition deteriorates. In the records from him, Mr. Taylor has earmarked the sum of US$9 million for a preliminary investment. He intends to see the investment begin before he can put in more. He has his money deposited in a security company in Holland and another in London. The reason why he delayed his exit from Liberia was to ensure that all savings were transferred. It was not really for what people misinterpreted. The sum he is making available will be released to you from his offshore account with the Security Company abroad. My client does not intend to share such money with you. All that can be done immediately is to give you a compensation of 20% of the total amount being released to you for representing him. The actual amount will be invested into Real Estate and Landed property, or one more suggestion from you. You will handle the investment procedure, do the insurance and engage your own legal representatives for each of the procedures. You will have 30% stake of every profit accruing in such investment. Other necessities will be discussed later. This will favor you better as my client commits more money into this venture.So, do not get scared that this is one of such stories. If my client achieves your trust, every step will be taken care of. The Security Company will advise more on the procedures and this will be communicated to you. We are contacting you because we believe that you have a registered facility under-which we can invest these funds. It will also be required that my clients son will travel to your country when the actual investment commences. I do not know if Mr. Taylor can trust anyone in this transaction, based on what he is going through now. If this letter is acceptable by you, please indicate your interest by contacting my chambers on: 1. Email:petermutumba@lawyer.com 2. My head chambers in Nigeria on Tel/Fax: 234-1-7591673 If we do not read from you in a short time, we would consider it that you do not have interest. But, I hope that we can count on your interest. Thus, respond soon. Thanks, Peter Mutumba.
