I’ll be honest, I’m an eternal optimist but this was not an inspiring conference call during arduous times!

- “ It’s a tough market “, mentioned twice in the opening 2 and a half mins

- No strategic plan + vague on options outside of China.

- China the only player in town.

- Nobody is going to execute until trade war is over.

- " If we can get that first customer signed, there is enough interest in us that we “ could “ gain some momentum,". How about use of the word “ will “ ... fairly sure we’ve had enough time over the years to progress “ advanced negotiations ” to signing readiness!
- Europe is a little soft right now, it’s a slow market and that has slowed decision making.
- Very soft spot market so decisions are getting deferred.

My view;

- Anadarko Mozambique executing.

- Sempra Energy (Port Arthur) interestingly signs deal with Saudi Amarco for a huge 5mt!

- I reckon we’ll be hearing some serious noise from Tellurian soon, after Meg Gentle interview with Bloomberg back in March 2019 stating, “ We are looking for partners and I would say we are actually to the stage now of concluding documentation with our partners. I think we’ll have a nice portfolio of majors, traders, Asian counterparties and even some from the Middle East. I would say the shortlist right now, although we are working with about 30 companies that have been in the detailed process... so of that, I think the ones that will go forward quickly, probably half a dozen. We are about a couple of months from being able to conclude and start construction. “ Ok, this bold timeline hasn’t eventuated but... I believe they are on the cusp of a breakthrough announcement which in turn will open up their floodgates!

GV’s thoughts on China, “ China really speaks loudly about the importance and the stability of HH. In our marketing efforts we’ve tried to say to them, look at the strength of the resource, look at how HH has been a very stable and a non volatile price. We’ve done such a good job on that, they actually preach that back to us now. The only real issue right now in China is trade. They are great business people “.

“ I would not expect anybody to execute deals with anyone until the presidents have agreed and trade war is over and we move on “ When he says anybody, he’s not only referring to Chinese entities but worldwide customers as he has stated before that other worldwide nations are hesitant to sign contracts during this ongoing conflict. That just confirms the high likelihood of not being able to sign a single contract with alternative customers during this conflict.

The dilemma we face... Reconciling differences in trade negotiations between the US & China has deteriorated fast and the reality is, should this war continue into 2020, the SP is going to be in for a lot more hurt. Concluding contracting is clearly on ice... now is the opportune, perfect time to switch to a US listing & try create/ maximise shareholder value! We have all the critical milestones in place, shovel ready, Next Decade is @ USD $5.47 while Tellurian is @ USD $8.64 as of 22nd of May. Despite being an Aussie shareholder I’ve always been a strong advocate for leaving the ASX because it’s not justified staying on considering LNG LTD has 2 projects in North America, the head office is in Houston & @ 36c and dropping, there will undoubtedly be significant upside if we redomicile to the US. I urge SHs to speak up, voice your support behind the switch if you truly believe in the benefits vs where we are today. Your vote of approval could make a difference, management and the board do listen. We are running the risk of banking on a trade pact on the horizon in which case if that fails to materialise, reiterating, the SP will suffer the consequences!

MCM, you posed a valid question in asking whether IDG might make a take over offer for LNG LTD? Who knows but Magnolia would be primed for a take over (as a fully de-risked project) by an IOC major like Shell or Total, who could take it straight to construction (on balance sheet) and lift a substantial proportion (if need be) of Magnolia’s 8.8mt as an anchor offtake. That would be a last resort scenario IF we were struggling to secure customers. But the beauty of our company is that it’s not a “ one trick pony “. We have a plethora of options up our sleeve to raise capital should times become dire with finances;

A) Could license our OSMR.

B) Could sell our equity.

C) Could sell Bear Head, which was bought on Aug 27 2014 for USD 11 Million from a subsidiary of Anardarko Oetroleum (a 255 acre site). Then on April 8 2016 Bear Head acquired a further 72.45 acres located at PointTupper/ Bear Head Industrial Park in the Strait of Canso from NSBI for $450K.Prior owners had spent more than $100 million to design, complete engineering work and site construction of the BearHead LNG site in the early 2000’s maintaining the facility in hot‐idle status. The land should be worth more than it was when we purchased it, a cracker of a location!An interesting tidbit - the Strait of Canso is one of the world’s deepest, ice-free, dredge free harbours!

I’ve made reference to this in the past, once the first anchor offtake is locked in, the domino effect should ensue. During these challenging times it’s just a reminder that we’re just one SPA away from changing the ball game! Dates of when SPAs were signed by US projects;
