FOR FUNDS. THE TRANSFER SHALL BE MADE AT THE APPROPRIATE MINISTRY IN FAVOUR
OF THE BENEFICIARY (YOU OR YOUR COMPANY).THEREFORE YOUR COMPANY SHALL BE
OFFICIALLY REGARDED AS HAVING EXECUTED THE CONTRACT FOR THE NIGERIAN NATIONAL
PETROLEUM COPERATION (NNPC) FOR WHICH PAYMENT IS BEING MADE, THIS PROCESS
