But if there are two grids, the map projection probably is Mercator and not UTM. If my guess is right both grids are not parallel to the map's borders. But another idea. As the map has been prepared to be used by Ozi it should be more or less read to be used. Thus it's sufficient to be referenced by 3 points. You can take the 3 points at corner's grid crossings. Convert the UTM coords to lon/lat WGS84 by one of those tools in the Web. Add the 3 reference points by hand. Select the target projection (probably mercator) and you should be fine. The grid tool is more for scanned maps. These have to be rectified / scaled / skewed because of the errors introduced by the scan process.
