Dear Mr Donovan,

I duly received your faxes of 4 and 5 April. I can assure you that Shell does
not accept that it has repudiated the SMART settlement. On the contrary, we have
on behalf of Shell expressly reserved their rights under the settlement
agreement and continue to do so. Your version of the events leading up to the
settlement is a parody of the truth and no doubt you do not need to be reminded
of what the judge himself had to say about the matter.

So far as concerns your wider conspiracy theories, they are nonsensical and I do
not propose to waste time responding to them in detail.

Yours sincerely,
Colin Joseph.
