EXHIBIT 10.1

LEASE PURCHASE AGREEMENT
The parties to this Lease Purchase Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of the
18th day of March, 2014 (the “Execution Date”), are ALBERTA OIL AND GAS LP
(hereinafter referred to as “Seller”), and AXIOM OIL AND GAS CORP (hereinafter
referred to as “Buyer”). Seller and Buyer are sometimes referred to herein
individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”.
FOR VALUABLE CONSIDERATION, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, and in consideration of the mutual covenants and benefits herein
set forth, Seller and Buyer agree as follows:
 
ARTICLE I
PURCHASE AND SALE OF LEASES
 
1.1 Purchase and Sale of Leases.
(a) Seller is the owner of certain oil and gas leases and the leasehold estates
created thereby, as to all lands and depths covered thereby located in Toole
County, Montana, all as more particularly described on Exhibit A hereto
(collectively, the “Leases”), Subject to the terms hereof, Seller agrees to sell
and convey to Buyer, and Buyer agrees to purchase and pay for, all of the
Seller’s interests in the Leases.
(b) The purchase price payable by Buyer for the Leases is three million six
hundred thousand dollars ($3,600,000)(the “Purchase Price” which price shall be
satisfied by the issuance of common shares of the Purchaser as described
herein), the assumption of a $1,500,000 debenture secured against the Seller’s
assets and the payment of $50,000 to the Seller. Should, however, it be
determined that Seller holds Defensible Title to less than one hundred percent
(100%) but greater than or equal to ninety percent (90%) of the acreage shown on
Exhibit A, then at the Conveyance Date Seller is obligated to sell the
Title-Approved Leases and Buyer is obligated to purchase the Title-Approved
Leases for the Purchase Price. Should, however, it be determined that Seller
holds Defensible Title to less than ninety percent (90%) but greater than or
equal to eighty percent (80%) of the acreage shown on Exhibit A, then at the
Conveyance Date Seller is obligated to sell the Title-Approved Leases and Buyer
is obligated to purchase the Title-Approved Leases for an amount equal to
the actual percentage of Title-Approved Leases multipliedby the Purchase
Price.  No later than the Conveyance Date, should, however, it be determined
that Seller holds Defensible Title to less than eighty percent (80%) of the
acreage shown on Exhibit A, Seller and Buyer each has the option, but not the
obligation, to terminate this Agreement. The Purchase Price will be fully paid
and satisfied by way of the delivery to the Buyer’s transfer agent at Closing of
a fully executed treasury order for the issuance of 7,200,000 common shares (the
“Shares”) of the Buyer to the Seller. The Buyer will use its best efforts to
ensure that its transfer agent deliver certificates representing the Purchase
Price to the Seller within ten (10) days of Closing and by Buyer delivering to
the Seller an executed assumption agreement of the debenture obligation secured
against the Leases.
(c) At Conveyance Date, Seller shall execute and deliver to Buyer an assignment
of 100% of the Title-Approved Leases to be conveyed at such Conveyance Date. The
assignment of the Leases (the “Assignment”) shall be in the form of that
attached hereto as Exhibit B, shall be effective as of the applicable Conveyance
Date, and shall contain no warranty of title.

1.2 Closing.
(a) The purchase and conveyance of the Leases contemplated hereby shall be
consummated at a “Closing” covering Title-Approved Leases identified by Buyer
pursuant to Article II. Closing shall take place at 11:00 AM MDT on May 30,
2014, or on such other date as may be fixed by mutual agreement of Seller and
Buyer at the offices of Seller in Billings, Montana. Closing shall be
conditional and delayed if necessary until Seller receives confirmation that
Buyer has raised some $1,000,000 by way of a financing.
1.3 Transfer of Files. Seller will deliver to Buyer, at Seller’s offices and at
Seller’s expense at Closing, all of Seller’s lease files, assignment files,
abstracts and title opinions, (in each case, to the extent transferable), and
other similar files and records in its possession which directly relate to the
Leases. Seller may, at its election, make and retain copies of any and all such
files.

ARTICLE II
TITLE REVIEW
 
2.1 Title Review. Buyer shall have until five (5) business days preceding the
Final Closing Date to examine title to the Leases (the “Review Period”). During
the Review Period, Seller will make available to Buyer, for examination at
Seller’s office in Billings, Montana, all lease, title, and other information in
any manner related to the Leases and the ownership thereof, and will cooperate
with Buyer in Buyer’s efforts to obtain, at Buyer’s expense, such additional
information relating to the Leases as Buyer may reasonably desire, to the extent
in each case that Seller may do so without violating any obligation of
confidence or other contractual commitment of Seller to a third Person. Seller
shall permit Buyer, at Buyer’s expense, to inspect and photocopy such
information and records at any reasonable time during the Review Period. Seller
shall not be obligated to furnish any updated abstracts of title or title
opinions or any additional title information not in the possession or control of
Seller, but shall cooperate with Buyer in Buyer’s efforts to obtain, at Buyer’s
expense, such additional updated title information as Buyer may reasonably deem
prudent.
2.2 Title Defects.
(a) If, during the Review Period, Buyer determines (after all curative work that
can reasonably be obtained has been obtained) that Seller does not hold
Defensible Title to any Lease (each such deficiency in Defensible Title is
herein called a “Title Defect”), Buyer shall provide Seller as hereinafter
provided written notice of the Title Defect and the circumstances underlying
such Title Defect (including copies of any title opinions or title reports that
reflect such Title Defect). Buyer shall provide Seller before 5:00 PM CDT on
March 31, 2014, a written Lease Status Report specifying the Leases that have
Defensible Title and the Leases which have been identified as having a Title
Defect. For each Lease with a Title Defect, the Title Defect will be specified
along with appropriate references and supporting documentation establishing the
Title Defect. Title Defects not asserted by Buyer in a timely manner under
this Section 2.2(a) shall be deemed to have been waived by Buyer.

 
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
(b) “Defensible Title” means such title of Seller that: (i) entitles Seller to
ownership of up to 50% of the oil and gas leasehold estate created by, and the
working interest in, each Lease; (ii) entitles Seller to not less than the
number of Net Acres set forth for any Lease on Exhibit A; however, Seller shall
have or shall be deemed to have Defensible Title with respect to the actual
number of net mineral acres whether greater than or less than the number of
acres set forth on Exhibit A; (iii) entitles Seller to receive a Net Revenue
Interest in each Lease that is not less than the applicable Minimum Net Revenue
Interest for the life of each Lease; and (iv) is free and clear specifically of
any mortgages, deeds of trust, federal, state, local, county, municipal,
material and mechanics liens and quiet title litigation save as specified
herein. The existence of one or more of the following objections to title with
respect to a Lease shall not constitute the basis for a claim by Buyer that
Seller’s title to such Lease is not Defensible Title: (u) objections to title
typically cured by reliance on applicable statutes of limitation; (v) lack of
evidence of the persons in possession of land; (w) absence of a release or other
evidence of termination of any time-expired oil and gas lease as to which more
than 10 years has passed since the expiration of its primary term; (x) absence
of ratifications of pooling or unit declarations by owners of non-participating
royalty interests or un-leased mineral interests in non-drill site tracts of a
pooled unit; (y) incomplete estate proceedings of record; and (z) defective
acknowledgements.
(c) Seller at its option but not obligation, at its sole cost, shall have until
the business day preceding the Closing within which to cure such Title Defect by
acquiring oil and gas leases or other title curative that will cause Seller to
hold Defensible Title to the affected Lease(s). Buyer will use its best efforts
to assist Seller with respect to curing Title Defects.
(d) All Leases affected by Title Defects that are not conveyed by Seller to
Buyer at the expiration of the additional 180-day curative period shall
thereupon cease to be subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Special Warranty of Title. Seller has not and will not convey or encumber
any interest in the Leases between the Execution Date and Conveyance Date.
(e) Neither the execution nor delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation or
performance of the transactions contemplated hereby will result in any default
under any agreement or instrument to which Seller is a party or by which any of
the Leases is bound.
(f) To Seller’s knowledge, none of the Leases (i) are subject to the terms of
any preferential right for a third Person to purchase such Lease, a right of

consent of any third Person to the valid assignment of such Lease to Buyer, or
(iii) have been pooled or unitized.

(n) Neither Seller, nor any affiliate of Seller, has received, reserved or
otherwise obtained any royalty, overriding royalty, net profits interest,
production payment, or other burden or encumbrance on any of the Leases that
would survive the Closing or otherwise burden any interest in the Leases being
conveyed to Buyer at the Closing, insofar as the result thereof would cause the
actual Net Revenue Interest in any Lease to be conveyed to Buyer hereunder
(calculated based on a 100% of 8/8ths of the oil, gas and casing head gas
produced and marketed under the provisions of the Leases) to fall below 75%.

under the US Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) or any other
applicable Securities Law. The Buyer is acquiring the Shares as principal for
its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such
Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any other
applicable securities law, has no present intention of distributing any of the
Shares in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state or other
securities law and has no direct or indirect arrangement or understandings with
any other persons to distribute or regarding the distribution of such Shares in
violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state or other securities law;

 
        (ii)
The Seller either alone or together with its representatives, has such
knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as
to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment
in the Shares, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. 
The Buyer has made available members of its management to answer, and Seller has
had the opportunity to ask, questions that the Buyer may have about the Buyer,
its operations and its public filings with the US Securities and Exchange
Commission.  The Seller is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in
the Shares and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such
investment;

 
        (iii)
Upon acquisition of the Shares, the Buyer will be deemed an “affiliate” of the
Purchaser (as such term is defined in the Securities Act) and as such will be
subject to additional reporting requirements under the Securities Act and the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and additional restrictions and obligations
under US, state and other securities laws (including a limited ability to rely
on Rule 144 for the public resale of the Shares); and

 
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

 

 
        (e)
Any certificate representing all or a portion of the Shares shall bear a legend
substantially in the following form:
