                              ALLOCATION AGREEMENT
                              --------------------

     AGREEMENT dated this 1/st/ day of November, 2001, by and among Puma Energy,
Inc., a Florida corporation ("Puma"), Caspian Energy International, Inc., a
Nevada corporation ("Caspian") and Tamer Muftizade, as the representative of one
or more contributing shareholders of Puma and Caspian ("Mr. Muftizade").


                                    RECITALS

     1. Mr. Muftizade represents a group of shareholders from countries outside
the United States which have contributed capital for the implementation of their
business plan by Caspian and Puma. Such contributions amounted to $3,200,000
(USD) in the aggregate and were made during 1997 and 1998.

     2. Approximately $4,000,000 was subsequently distributed to the
shareholders in 1998. Following the distribution, approximately $2,008,000 was
placed back into Caspian and Puma through June 30, 2001. All funds placed back
into Caspian and Puma, including additional amounts after June 30, 2001, up to
the original $4,000,000 distributed, are intended as capital contributions.

     3. When the capital contributions were made, it was intended that
Management of Puma and Caspian would have the right to allocate such funds
between the two companies as they elected.

     4. All such contributions were made through the bank accounts of Caspian,
due to questions at the time whether Puma accounts might be subject to levy for
payment of back taxes (all of which have subsequently been paid).

     5. It was intended that a portion of the funds paid through Caspian's bank
account was to be applied and allocated to Puma and to be the sole property of
Puma free of any obligation to Caspian.

                                   AGREEMENTS

     1. Caspian and Puma agree that any allocation by them of capital
contributed by the Muftizade Group between Puma and Caspian or contributed
hereafter shall be binding on the parties and their successors and assigns.

     2. Caspian and Puma acknowledge that there is no debtor/creditor,
shareholder, parent/subsidiary, partnership, joint venture, or any other
relationship between them, other than
