Dear shareholders;
Recent changes in the SEC’s proxy rules for all public company meetings has resulted in a smaller than normal number of shareholders returning proxy material. The result for Royale is that a quorum may not be established for our upcoming annual meeting.
For beneficial shareholders, your broker or nominee is not permitted to exercise voting discretion with respect to many matters to be acted upon, including election of directors. If you do not give your broker or nominee specific instructions, your shares may not be voted on those matters and will not be considered as present and entitled to vote with respect to those matters.
We value your participation in the governance process, and request your participation. You are welcome to attend the meeting in person or you participate by returning your proxy before 10:00am Friday, June 4, 2010.
Proxy material may be returned by faxing the vote card to 631-254-7622, or emailing it to ir@royl.com.
Thank you for your participation.
Royale Energy Inc.
Board of Directors
