January 1, 2008, VAALCO&#8217;s shares have traded as low as $3.99 and have only begun

significantly reduce spending and management&#8217;s efforts in the UK North
Sea.</font></div>

opinion, VAALCO has been unwisely spending cash on acquiring and drilling minor
UK North Sea interests that have been total exploration failures.&#160;&#160;For
example, in January 2008, the Company revealed that it drilled a dry hole on the
9/28b-19A exploration well at a cost of $12 million, which includes $8.1 million
written down in the fourth quarter of 2008.&#160;&#160;The UK North Sea&#8217;s
production and reserves have been rapidly declining in recent years after
decades of exploration and is now widely known for not presenting nearly as much
upside as West Africa.&#160;&#160;The stock price of the only U.S. publicly

that same year (Endeavour International </font><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman">Corp. &#8211;

enthusiasm for this mature petroleum region.&#160;&#160;Yet despite this trend,
management continues exploration in this area and plans to participate in
another well exploration during 2008, according to the Company&#8217;s 2007 annual
report on Form 10-K.&#160;&#160;If elected, our Nominees would seek to convince
