ARTICLE 2

PURCHASE AND SALE

2.1	Initial Transaction

Seller shall:

(a)	sell and assign the Initial Working Interest to Purchaser; and

(b)	grant the Option to Purchaser,

(together, the “Initial Transaction”) in exchange for the delivery of the Initial Completion Capital, on and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

2.2	Completion Capital Consideration

As consideration for the Initial Transaction, Purchaser shall deliver to Escrow Agent, for release from time to time to Seller in its capacity as Operator under the JOA and in accordance with the terms of the Initial Escrow Agreement, an amount equal to US$7,000,000 less the Adjustment Amount, if any (the “Completion Capital”), which shall be used to pay 100% of the first US$7,000,000 (less the Adjustment Amount, if any) incurred in performing the Initial Completion Program.

2.3	Nature of the Option

The Option shall:

(a)	be exercisable by the Purchaser at any time without payment of any additional consideration, other than the Subsequent Purchase Price at the Subsequent Closing;

(b)	be non-transferable; and

(c)	expire on the Option Expiry Date.

2.4	Exercise of the Option

The Option may be exercised in whole at any time prior to the Option Expiry Date by Purchaser, in its sole discretion, by completing the Option Exercise Form and made a part hereof and delivering same to Seller at its head office currently located at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ of America. Upon compliance with the conditions

-10-

relating to the Option as aforesaid, Purchaser shall proceed with the Subsequent Transaction in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

2.5	Failure to Exercise the Option

If the Option is not exercised prior to the Option Expiry Date, then the Option shall be null and void and of no further force or effect whatsoever, there shall be no further liability or obligation on the part of any Party under this Article 2, and this Agreement shall terminate in accordance with Section 8.2(c)(i).

2.6	Subsequent Transaction

Upon the exercise of the Option in accordance with Section 2.4, Seller shall sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase from Seller, the Assets on and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (the “Subsequent Transaction”).

2.7	Computing Price and Assets to Be Assigned

(a)

The Parties intend that Purchaser shall receive Clean Title to approximately 9,955 Net Leasehold Acres in the Subsequent Transaction. If Seller assigns to Purchaser at the Subsequent Closing Clean Title to 9,500 or more Net Leasehold Acres, there will be no change in the contemplated Subsequent Transaction. If, however, Seller assigns to Purchaser Clean Title to less than 9,500 Net Leasehold Acres, then the Subsequent Purchase Price will be reduced in proportion to the shortfall in acreage between the intended 9,955 Net Leasehold Acres and the actual Net Leasehold Acres that are assigned. Finally, if Seller is unable to assign to Purchaser Clean Title to at least 8,000 Net Leasehold Acres, then Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement before the Subsequent Closing.

(b)

Seller is conclusively deemed to have Clean Title to the Federal Leases at the date of this agreement, if the Colorado State Office of the Bureau of Land Management shows record title and all operating rights in a particular Federal Lease held as to all depths solely by Seller and if the lease is not burdened by any liens or encumbrances, except Permitted Encumbrances. If Seller does not have sole ownership of record title and operating rights (as, for example, with Federal Leases that are now owned of record by Gunsmoke Production Company), then Seller must obtain such record title and operating rights before the Subsequent Closing. If a Federal Lease is burdened by a lien or encumbrance that is not a Permitted Encumbrance (for example, the Global Project Finance AG mortgage), then each such lien or encumbrance must, as to the undivided interest proposed to be assigned to Purchaser, be removed at or before the Subsequent Closing. Finally, despite the presumption set forth above, Seller may lose Clean Title as a result of an act, event or omission occurring between the date of this Agreement and the Subsequent Closing Date, such as the failure timely to pay a necessary rental or minimum royalty.

(c)	Seller is conclusively deemed to have Clean Title to the New Leases at the date of this Agreement, if (i) they are held by a shut-in gas well and all necessary shut-in

-11-

gas payments have been timely made and accepted; (ii) they are still in their original or renewed primary terms and such primary terms will not expire earlier than 12 months after the Subsequent Closing Date; and (iii) they are not burdened by any liens or encumbrances, except for Permitted Encumbrances. If necessary shut-in gas payments have not been made or if less than 12 months after the Subsequent Closing Date remains on their original or renewed primary terms, then Seller must either obtain new leases or obtain new lease extensions affording, in either case, a valid primary term continuing on a paid-up basis for a period of at least 12 months after the Subsequent Closing Date. Finally, despite the conclusive presumption set forth above, Seller may lose Clean Title as a result of an act, event or omission occurring between the date of this Agreement and the Subsequent Closing Date, such as a failure timely to pay a necessary shut-in royalty payment.

(d)

For the purposes of this Agreement, Seller is conclusively deemed not to have Clean Title to the Old Leases at the date of this Agreement. First, Seller must either (i) obtain new leases on a paid-up basis for a primary term of at least 12 months after the Subsequent Closing Date or (ii) obtain ratifications, revivals and amendments of existing leases which include provisions deeming the existing well to be a shut-in well for purposes of the lease, stating that all necessary shut-in payments have been made to keep the lease in effect, and agreeing that the lease is now in full force and effect. Each new lease or new ratification, revival and amendment shall be obtained from the appropriate mineral owner identified in a title report prepared by a petroleum ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ experienced in Rio ▇▇▇▇▇▇ County, Colorado, who has examined the county records for the period from and after the certification of the most recent title report contained in Seller’s files at the date of this Agreement. Second, each Old Lease must not be burdened by any liens or encumbrances, other than Permitted Encumbrances. Finally, nothing must have occurred or failed to occur depriving the Seller of Clean Title between the date of the new lease or ratification, revival and amendment and the Subsequent Closing Date.

(e)

If Purchaser exercises the Option, representatives of the Purchaser and Seller will meet at mutually convenient times during the four Business Days immediately following the Option Exercise Date to agree upon the Leases as to which Seller has Clean Title and the Net Leasehold Acres covered by each. If Purchaser and Seller agree on all such matters, then, within eight Business Days after the Option Exercise Date, (i) the Purchaser and Seller will agree upon the adjustment to the Subsequent Purchase Price and (ii) the Purchaser will specify, in its sole discretion, how much of that adjustment will be made in the Subsequent Cash Payment and how much in the Subsequent Securities Payment. All computations of Net Leasehold Acres performed in accordance with this Section 2.7 are performed solely for the purpose of determining the Subsequent Purchase Price and preparing the necessary assignments at the Subsequent Closing. There will no further payments or refunds between the Seller and Purchaser if, as will surely happen, later surveys or better knowledge prove that the number of Net Leasehold Acres was incorrect.

-12-

(f)

If the parties fail timely to agree upon the Leases as to which Seller has Clean Title and the Net Leasehold Acres covered by each, then all such unagreed matters will be finally and conclusively resolved by expert determination by the law firm of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, LLC, Denver, Colorado, or, if they do not agree to serve, by an independent and disinterested lawyer or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ appointed by the President of the Denver Association of Petroleum Landmen. The expert shall have absolute power to determine the timing and procedures to be used in resolving the unagreed points, and such resolution by the expert, when completed, shall be final and conclusive upon the parties. All costs and fees of the expert shall be borne in equal shares by the Seller and Purchaser.

ARTICLE 10

RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES

10.1	Arbitration – If Not Principally Related to Convertible Securities Issues

Any dispute between the Parties arising during the period of this Agreement or at any time thereafter which touches upon the validity, construction, meaning, performance or effect of this Agreement or the rights and liabilities of the Parties or any matter arising out of or connected with this Agreement, except a dispute principally related to the Convertible Securities, shall be subject to arbitration pursuant to the Uniform Arbitration Act, Colorado Revised Statutes § ▇▇-▇▇-▇▇▇ (2007) and as provided in this Article and the decision of the arbitrational tribunal shall be final and binding as between the Parties and shall not be subject to appeal.

10.2	Arbitration – If Principally Related to Convertible Securities Issues

Any dispute between the Parties arising during the period of this Agreement or at any time thereafter which principally relates to the Convertible Securities shall be subject to arbitration pursuant to Arbitration Act, 1991 (Ontario) and as provided in this Article and the decision of the arbitrational tribunal shall be final and binding as between the Parties and shall not be subject to appeal.

-34-

10.3	Procedures Common to Both Arbitration Fora

Any arbitration to be carried out under either Section 10.1 or 10.2 shall be subject to the following provisions, namely:

(a)

The party desiring arbitration shall nominate one arbitrator and shall notify the other party hereto of such nomination. Such notice shall set forth a brief description of the matter submitted for arbitration and, if appropriate, the paragraph hereof pursuant to which such matter is so submitted. Such other party shall, within 30 days after receiving such notice, nominate an arbitrator and the two arbitrators shall select a third person as an arbitrator and as chairman of the arbitral tribunal to act jointly with them. If said arbitrators shall be unable to agree on the selection of such chairman, the chairman shall be appointed by the President of the Colorado Oil and Gas Association (if the arbitration is under Section 10.1) or a Judge of the Ontario Superior Court (if under Section 10.2) upon the application of any of the parties hereto.

(b)

The arbitration shall take place in Denver, Colorado (if the arbitration is under Section 10.1) or Toronto, Ontario (if under Section 10.2) and the chairman shall fix the time and location in such city for the purpose of hearing such evidence and representations as either of the parties may present and, subject to the provisions hereof, the decisions of the arbitrators or of any two of them in writing shall be binding upon the parties both in respect of procedure and the conduct of the parties during the proceedings and the final determination of the issues therein. Said arbitrators shall, after hearing any evidence and representations that the parties may submit, make their decision and reduce the same to writing and deliver one copy thereof to each of the parties hereto. The majority of the arbitrators may determine any matters of procedure for the arbitration not specified herein.

(c)

If the party hereto receiving the notice of the nomination of an arbitrator by the party desiring arbitration fails within the said 30 days to nominate an arbitrator, then the arbitrator nominated by the party desiring arbitration may proceed alone to determine the dispute in such manner and at such time as he shall think fit and his decision shall, subject to the provisions hereof, be binding upon the parties.

(d)	Notwithstanding the foregoing, the arbitration may be carried out by a single arbitrator if the parties hereto so agree, in which event the provisions of this paragraph shall apply, mutatis mutandis.

(e)	The cost of the arbitration shall be borne equally by the Parties, unless the chairman and arbitrators decide otherwise in their final written decision.

(f)	Insofar as they do not conflict with the provisions of this Article, the Colorado Uniform Arbitration Act (as to arbitration in Denver) or the Ontario Arbitration Act (as to proceedings in Toronto) shall be applicable to arbitration held under

-35-

this Article and the chairman and arbitrators shall have jurisdiction to do all acts and make such orders as provided therein.

(g)	Submission to arbitration pursuant to the provisions of this Article and the obtaining of the decision of the arbitration tribunal on the matters and claims in dispute shall be a condition precedent to the bringing of any action at law or suit in equity with respect to this Agreement.

10.4	Arbitration – Mixed Issues

The Parties recognize that disputes may involve more than one issue, and consequently have provided that the correct arbitration venue and procedure will turn upon whether the disputed issues principally relate to Convertible Securities or to other matters. An arbitrator or arbitral panel constituted under this Agreement shall always have power to determine whether the disputed issues principally relate to Convertible Securities or other matters, with the understanding that principal relationship will be determined based on the numerosity and complexity of the issues that need to be resolved and the applicable governing law, rather than monetary value of the issues. Under no circumstances will the Parties ever be involved in cotemporaneous arbitration proceedings in two different venues, unless all parties to each putative proceeding agree.

ARTICLE 11

GENERAL

11.1	Taxes and Fees

Seller shall be responsible for any sales and use taxes applicable to the Transactions. Each Party shall pay its own legal and other professional fees in respect of the Transactions.

All matters of payment, execution and delivery of documents by each Party to the others at the Initial Closing and at the Subsequent Closing shall be deemed to be concurrent requirements and nothing will be complete at a concerned Closing until everything required at that Closing has been paid, executed and delivered. Upon the written request of any Party, all documents and monies shall be deemed delivered in escrow at a Closing until the Parties’ Counsel can agree that all requirements of that Closing have been satisfied.

Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not constitute a binding agreement between the Parties until the Acceptance Date.

11.4

Tender

Any tender of documents or money or delivery of Notice pursuant to this Agreement may be given by or made upon the Parties’ Counsel on behalf of the Parties.

-36-

11.5	Specific Performance and other Remedies

Each of the Parties hereto hereby recognizes and acknowledges that a breach by the other Party (the “Breaching Party”) of any covenants or other commitments contained in this Agreement will cause the non-Breaching Party to sustain injury for which it would not have an adequate remedy at law for money damages. Therefore, each of the Parties hereto hereby agree that, in the event of any such breach, the non-Breaching Party shall be entitled to the remedy of specific performance of such covenants or commitments and provisional, interlocutory and permanent injunctive and other equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity, and each of the Parties hereto further hereby agrees to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief.

11.6	Obligations as Covenants

Each agreement and obligation of the Parties contained in this Agreement, even though not expressed as a covenant, shall be considered for all purposes to be a covenant.

11.7	Amendment of Agreement

Subject to Section 11.9, no modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the Parties in the same manner as the execution of this Agreement.

11.8	Further Assurances

Each of the Parties shall from time to time hereafter and upon any reasonable request of any other party, make or cause to be made all such further acts, deeds, assurances and things as may be required or necessary to more effectually implement and carry out the true intent and meaning of this Agreement.

11.9

Waiver

Subject to Section 11.7, no waiver of any default, breach or non-compliance under this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the Party to be bound by the waiver or by its counsel. Subject to Section 11.7, no waiver shall be inferred from or implied by any failure to act or delay in acting by a Party in respect of any default, breach or non-observance or by anything done or omitted to be done by the other Party. The waiver by a Party of any default, breach or non-compliance under this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of that Party’s rights under this Agreement in respect of any continuing or subsequent default, breach or non-observance (whether of the same or any other nature).

11.10

Time

Time shall in all respects be of the essence hereof provided that the time for doing or completing any matter may be extended or abridged by an agreement in writing between the Parties or their respective Counsel. Except as expressly set out in this Agreement, the computation of any period of time referred to in this Agreement shall exclude the first day and include the last day of such period.

-37-

11.11

Entire Agreement

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and, except as stated in the instruments and documents to be executed and delivered pursuant hereto, contains all of the representations, conditions, warranties and agreements of the respective Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. There are no verbal representations, undertakings or agreements of any kind between the Parties. This Agreement supersedes all prior negotiations or agreements between the Parties, whether written or verbal, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

11.12

Severability

If any covenant, obligation or provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement or the application of such covenant, obligation or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby.
