                             NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

     THIS NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this "Note Purchase Agreement"),  dated as of
February 2, 2012, is entered into by and between  BARON  ENERGY,  INC., a Nevada
corporation  ("Company")  and the  subscriber  identified on the signature  page
hereto ("Subscriber").

                                    RECITALS:

     WHEREAS, Company desires to offer for sale (the "Offering"), and Subscriber
desires  to  purchase  from  Company,   that  amount  of  Company's  convertible
promissory notes (a "Note") as set forth on Subscriber's  signature page hereto,
convertible  into shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Company
(the "Shares"),  and having the rights and privileges set forth in substantially
the form of the Note  included in that  certain  Confidential  Private  Offering
Booklet dated as of December 8, 2011 (the "Offering Booklet"); and

     WHEREAS,  the Note and the Shares  issuable upon conversion of the Note are
collectively referred to herein as the "Securities."

     NOW, THEREFORE, for the reasons set forth hereinabove, and in consideration
of the mutual  covenants  and promises  contained  herein and for other good and
valuable  consideration,  the  receipt  and  sufficiency  of  which  are  hereby
acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

     1.  Subscription.  In reliance upon the  representations  and warranties of
Company and Subscriber contained herein, and subject to the terms and conditions
set forth herein, Subscriber agrees to purchase from Company, and Company hereby
agrees  to sell and  issue to  Subscriber,  a Note in the  principal  amount  of
$33,333.  Subscriber  agrees  to  purchase  the  Securities  on  the  terms  and
conditions described in this Note Purchase Agreement and the Note, both of which
are  included  in  the  Offering  Booklet   (collectively,   the   "Subscription
Documents").

     2. Note.  The Note being sold to and  purchased by Subscriber is one of the
Notes  being  offered  and sold in the  Offering  and is  identical  in form and
content to all other Notes.  Payment to Company of the  principal  amount of the
Note is due and payable concurrent with delivery of Subscriber's fully completed
and executed Subscription Documents. The Note will be effective on the date that
Company accepts Subscriber's subscription,  payable in accordance with the terms
thereof  and all  amendments  and  modifications  thereto.  If Company  does not
receive  payment  in full of the  principal  amount  of the Note by  Subscriber,
Company  may not  accept  Subscriber's  subscription.  All funds will be paid to
Company  via check or wire  transfer in  accordance  with the terms set forth on
PAGE 9 of this Note Purchase  Agreement.  The Note and all accrued  interest due
thereunder  will be due and  payable  twelve  months  from the date of said Note
("Maturity Date").
<PAGE>
     3. Interest Rate. The outstanding  principal  balance on the Note will bear
interest at a rate of 8% per annum.

     4. Conversion  Rights.  At any time prior after 180 days from the Effective
Date,  Subscriber  shall  have the option to convert  any or all  principal  and
accrued but unpaid  interest due under the Note into Shares,  in lieu of payment
on the Note,  at the  Conversion  Price (as  defined in the Note) per Share,  in
accordance   with  and  subject  to  the  terms  and  conditions  of  the  Note.
Furthermore,  in the event Company  consummates,  prior to the Maturity Date, an
equity financing for the purpose of raising capital,  pursuant to which it sells
Shares  with an  aggregate  gross  sales  price of not less than  $1,000,000  (a
"Qualified  Financing"),  then the  holder of the Note  shall have the option to
either:  (a) redeem all but not less than all of the  outstanding  principal and
accrued  but  unpaid  interest  due under the Note;  (b) hold the Note until the
Maturity  Date;  or (c)  convert  any or all  principal  and  accrued but unpaid
interest due under the Note into Shares as described above. If Subscriber elects
to  convert  or redeem  the Note,  the Note will be deemed  cancelled  and of no
further force or effect.

     5. Deliveries by Company.  Upon  acceptance of  Subscriber's  subscription,
Company  will  issue a Note  in  Subscriber's  name  as  Payee  and  deliver  to
Subscriber an executed Note Purchase Agreement.

offered by Company in the Offering is $300,000,  which maximum amount is subject
to increase in Company's sole discretion. The Offering will terminate on January
31, 2013 unless extended by Company in its sole discretion. Company reserves the
right to terminate the Offering at any time in its sole discretion.

Company's  outstanding  accounts  payable as well as fees and  future  costs for
field operations,  accounting,  auditing,  and reserve  engineering  services as
determined in Company's sole discretion.

     8. Understandings of Subscriber.  Subscriber acknowledges,  understands and

in its  sole  discretion,  only  persons  who (i)  either  alone  or with  their

liability  company,  trust,  corporation or other entity, has the full power and
authority to execute and comply with the terms of the Subscription  Documents on
its behalf and to make the  representations  and  warranties  made herein on its
behalf; and the investment in the Securities has been affirmatively  authorized,
if  required,  by  Subscriber's   governing  board  and  is  not  prohibited  by
Subscriber's governing documents;

contemplated hereunder, such Subscriber has not directly or indirectly,  nor has
any  person  acting on  behalf of or  pursuant  to any  understanding  with such
Subscriber, executed any disposition,  including Short Sales (as defined below),
in the securities of the Company during the period commencing from the time that
such Subscriber first received a term sheet from the Company or any other person
setting  forth the material  terms of the  transactions  contemplated  hereunder
until the date hereof  ("Discussion  Time").  Each Subscriber  severally and not
jointly with the other Subscribers  covenants that neither it nor any affiliates
acting on its behalf or pursuant to any  understanding  with it will execute any
Short Sales during the period after the  Discussion  Time and ending at the time
that such Subscriber no longer owns any Note issued hereunder.  Each Subscriber,
severally and not jointly with the other Subscribers,  covenants that until such
time as the  transactions  contemplated  by this  Note  Purchase  Agreement  are
publicly  disclosed by the Company  pursuant to applicable  law, such Subscriber
will maintain the  confidentiality  of all disclosures  made to it in connection
with this transaction  (including the existence and terms of this  transaction).
Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,   in  the  case  of  a  Subscriber  that  is  a

                                       7
<PAGE>
multi-managed  investment  vehicle whereby  separate  portfolio  managers manage
separate portions of such Subscriber's assets and the portfolio managers have no
direct  knowledge of the  investment  decisions  made by the portfolio  managers
managing  other  portions of such  Subscriber's  assets,  the covenant set forth
above  shall  only apply with  respect to the  portion of assets  managed by the
portfolio  manager that made the investment  decision to purchase the Securities
covered by this Note Purchase Agreement.  "Short Sales" shall include all "short
sales" as defined in Rule 200 of Regulation  SHO under the  Securities  Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (but shall not be deemed to include the location  and/or
reservation of borrowable Shares).

     IN  WITNESS  WHEREOF,  this  Note  Purchase  Agreement  has  been  made and
delivered as of the date first written below.

$33,333                                         Effective Date: February 2, 2012

     FOR  VALUE  RECEIVED,   the  undersigned  BARON  ENERGY,   INC.,  a  Nevada
corporation ("Maker"), does hereby promise, in accordance with the Note Purchase
Agreement, dated as of February 2, 2012 (the "Note Purchase Agreement"),  to pay
to the order of Siesta  Fiesta  Holdings,  LLC ("Payee") at the address of Payee
set forth in the Note Purchase  Agreement,  in  immediately  available  funds of
official currency of the United States, the principal sum of $33,333, or so much
as may be  outstanding  hereunder  from  time to time,  together  with  interest
thereon  from the date of this  Convertible  Promissory  Note (the  "Note"),  as
provided herein.

     This Note is one of a series of convertible  promissory notes of like tenor
and  ranking  (collectively,  the  "Notes")  made by Maker  in favor of  certain
investors (collectively,  the "Investors"), all upon terms set forth in the Note
Purchase Agreement and this Note.

     By acceptance of this Note,  Payee agrees that it will promptly deliver and
surrender  this Note to Maker upon full  payment  thereof,  or upon  election of
conversion or redemption.

     1.  PRINCIPAL  BALANCE.  This  Note  evidences  a loan  up to  the  maximum
principal  sum  specified  above,  less the  aggregate  amount of all  principal
repayments made under this Note by Maker to Payee.

     2. INTEREST RATE. Interest shall be payable on the unpaid principal balance
of this Note, as the same may exist from time to time,  from the Effective  Date
set forth above until paid or converted in full,  in  accordance  with the terms
herein.  If any or all of the unpaid  principal  balance of this Note is paid in
coin and  currency,  interest  shall  be  payable  at the rate of 8% per  annum.
Interest on the principal balance outstanding will be calculated on the basis of
the actual  number of days elapsed over an assumed year  consisting of 360 days,
to the date of receipt by Payee at the place of payment designated herein of any
interest and/or principal.

                                       9
<PAGE>
     3. PAYMENT  TERMS.  Any  outstanding  principal  balance and accrued unpaid
interest shall be paid to Payee, on a pari passu basis with all other Investors,
by Maker in full no later than twelve months from the  Effective  Date set forth
above (the "Maturity Date").

     4. CONVERSION RIGHTS.

          (a) At any time after one hundred eighty days from the Effective Date,
in  Payee's  sole  discretion,  Payee  shall  have  the  right  to  convert  the
outstanding  principal  amount of this Note and  unpaid  interest  thereon  (the
"Convertible  Amount") in whole or in part into shares of Maker's  common stock,
par value of $0.001 per share ("Shares") in lieu of having Maker repay this Note
pursuant to Section 3 above  ("Conversion").  The  Convertible  Amount as of the
date Maker  receives  Payee's  Notice of  Conversion,  Redemption  or  Repayment
("Payee's  Notice")  is  convertible  into that  number  of Shares  equal to the
Convertible  Amount  divided by the  Conversion  Price (as defined in Section 13
below). No fractional Shares will be issued in connection with any conversion of
the  Conversion  Amount,  but instead  will be rounded up to the  nearest  whole
Share.

          (b) In the event Maker  consummates a Qualified  Financing (as defined
below) prior to the Maturity  Date,  Payee shall have the right to: (i) elect to
require  Maker  to  redeem  all but not less  than  all of the then  outstanding
principal  amount of this Note,  plus accrued and unpaid  interest  ("Redemption
Amount");  or (ii)  continue  to hold  this  Note  until  the  Maturity  Date or
Conversion.  For purposes herein,  a "Qualified  Financing" shall mean an equity
financing  for the  purpose of raising  capital,  pursuant  to which Maker sells
Shares for an aggregate  gross sales price of not less than ONE MILLION  DOLLARS
($1,000,000).

          (c) Maker shall notify Payee if and when Maker consummates a Qualified
Financing  ("Maker's  Notice").  Within five days of receipt of Maker's  Notice,
Payee must  provide  written  notice to Maker of Payee's  election to have Maker
redeem this Note in  accordance  with this Section 4 or to have Maker repay this
Note  pursuant  to Section 3 above.  In the event  Payee  fails to respond  with
Payee's  election  within such time frame,  Payee shall  forfeit its  redemption
rights under this Section 4, and Maker shall repay Payee  pursuant to Section 3,
unless Payee elects to convert the Note in accordance  with this Section 4 prior
to the Maturity Date. Maker shall deliver to Payee the Redemption  Amount within
fifteen days of receipt of Payee's election pursuant to this Section 4.

          (d) Upon conversion or redemption of this Note in accordance with this
Section  4, the  outstanding  principal  balance  on this  Note and all  accrued
interest due thereon as of the date of conversion  or redemption  will be deemed
paid in full, and the Note will be deemed cancelled and of no force or effect.

     5. PREPAYMENT.  Notwithstanding  anything contained herein to the contrary,
this Note is subject to prepayment in whole at any time at the sole and absolute
option of Maker,  upon five days prior written notice to Payee.  In the event of
prepayment,  Maker shall pay to Payee 110% of the outstanding  principal balance
of the Note, plus any accrued interest due on such outstanding principal balance
as of the date of such  prepayment.  Any  prepayment  by  Maker  must be made in
connection with the prepayment of all Notes issued by Maker.

     6. LIQUIDITY  EVENT.  If a Liquidity Event (as defined herein) occurs prior
to the  Maturity  Date,  the  Maker  will pay to Payee  110% of the  outstanding
principal balance of the Note, plus any accrued interest due on such outstanding
principal  balance as of the date of the closing of such  Liquidity  Event.  For
purposes  herein,  a "Liquidity  Event" shall mean any of the  following:  (a) a
merger of the Maker with or into any other Person (as defined  herein),  if, and
only  if,  after  such  merger  holders  of a  majority  of the  Maker's  voting
securities  immediately prior to the merger do not hold a majority of the voting

                                       10
<PAGE>
securities  of the  successor  entity;  or (b) a sale  or  conveyance  of all or
substantially  all of Maker's  assets or common stock to any other  Person.  For
purposes herein, "Person" is defined as an individual, partnership, corporation,
business trust, limited liability company, limited liability partnership,  joint
stock company, trust, unincorporated association, joint venture, or governmental
body.

     7. EVENTS OF DEFAULT.  Any of the following  shall  constitute an "Event of
Default"  under  this  Note,  and shall give rise to the  remedies  provided  in
Section 8 herein.

          (a) Maker defaults in the  compliance  with any term contained in this
Note and such default is not remedied or waived  within 30 days after receipt by
Maker of notice from Payee of such default.

decree or order for relief with  respect to Maker in an  involuntary  case under
any applicable  bankruptcy,  insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in
effect,  which  decree  or order is not  stayed or other  similar  relief is not
granted under any applicable  federal or state law; (ii) the  continuance of any
of the following events for 60 days unless dismissed,  bonded or discharged: (A)
an involuntary case is commenced against Maker under any applicable  bankruptcy,
insolvency  or other  similar law now or  hereafter  in effect;  (B) a decree or
order of a court for the  appointment of a receiver,  liquidator,  sequestrator,
trustee, custodian or other officer having similar powers over Maker or over all
or a substantial part of its property,  is entered;  or (C) an interim receiver,
trustee or other custodian is appointed  without the consent of Maker for all or
a substantial  part of the property of Maker;  (iii) Maker consents to the entry
of an  order  for  relief  in an  involuntary  case or to the  conversion  of an
involuntary  case to a  voluntary  case  under any such law or  consents  to the
appointment of or taking  possession by a receiver,  trustee or other  custodian
for all or a substantial  part of its property;  (iv) Maker makes any assignment
for the benefit of creditors;  or (v) the board of directors of Maker adopts any
resolution or otherwise authorizes action to approve any of the actions referred
to in this Section 7(b).

     8. REMEDIES ON EVENT OF DEFAULT.  If any Event of Default will occur, Payee
shall, in addition to any and all other available rights and remedies,  have the
right, at Payee's  option,  to declare the entire unpaid  outstanding  principal
balance of this Note,  together with all interest accrued thereon at the rate of
18% per annum to the date of said  Event of  Default,  and all other sums due by
Maker hereunder,  to be immediately due and payable, and either: (a) convert the
Convertible  Amount into that number of Shares equal to the  Convertible  Amount
divided by the Default Conversion Price (as defined in Section 13 below); or (b)
pursue any and all available  remedies for the  collection of such principal and
interest to enforce its rights as described  herein;  and in such case Payee may
also  recover  all costs of suit and other  expenses  in  connection  therewith,
including  reasonable  attorneys' fees for collection and the right to equitable
relief to enforce Payee's rights as set forth herein.  The remedies  provided in
this Note may be  exercised  by Payee  without  notice  to Maker (to the  extent
permitted by law and except as notice is herein expressly  required) and will be
in addition to and not in  substitution  for the rights and remedies which would
otherwise  be vested in Payee for the  recovery of damages or  otherwise  in the
event of a breach of any of the undertakings of Maker  hereunder.  No failure by
Payee to exercise and no delay in exercising any right, power or privilege under
this Note will  operate  as a waiver  thereof,  nor will any  single or  partial
exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other,  further
or additional exercise thereof.

     9.  GOVERNING  LAW.  This Note will be  construed  in  accordance  with and
governed by the local laws of the State of Nevada,  without  regard to its rules
regarding choice of law.
