                                                           OF THE THIRD PART

                     WHEREAS, pursuant to an Agreement of Purchase and Sale
dated as of December 17, 2003 by and among the West Lorne, DynaMotive and
Magellan, as amended by a letter agreement dated December 22, 2003 (the

"Equipment");

                     AND WHEREAS, the purchase price of the Equipment remains
outstanding;

                     AND WHEREAS Magellan and West Lorne have entered into a
security agreement (the "Security Agreement") dated December 10, 2004
providing for security (the "Security") in respect of the Equipment listed in
Schedule "A" to the Security Agreement and the assets listed in Schedule "B"

                                   ARTICLE 1
                                   The Lease

1.1     West Lorne will use best efforts to enter into a lease with Equisol
Capital Corporation ("Equisol") in respect of the Equipment and Balance of
Plant (together, the "Power Island") for a principal amount of  $3,644,000
Cdn. (the "Lease").

1.2     The Lease will include the following provisions:

<PAGE>
                                       2

(a)     West Lorne will make a payment of $500,000 Cdn. to Equisol (the
"Payment") concurrently with the receipt by DynaMotive of equity financing
(the "Financing") proposed to be in the amount of $12,000,000 Cdn. as part of
DynaMotive's intended offering of shares and concurrent listing of its shares
on the Toronto Stock Exchange in 2005.  Upon completion of the Financing,
DynaMotive agrees to advance $500,000 Cdn to West Lorne to enable West Lorne
to make the Payment.

(b)     Upon receipt of the Payment, Magellan's Security on the Balance of
Plant only under the Security Agreement shall be reduced by the amount of the
Payment and DynaMotive will have a first priority security interest on the
Balance of Plant only in the amount of the Payment.

                                   ARTICLE 2
                              MARKETING AGREEMENTS

2.1     Magellan and DynaMotive will enter into a marketing cooperation
agreement which will set out the terms and conditions pursuant to which, they
will market each other's services and products (the "Marketing Cooperation
Agreement").

2.2     Magellan will use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate and
sign a Remarketing Agreement with Equisol which Remarketing Agreement will
provide that Magellan will find a "home" for the Power Island in the event
there is a default under the Lease (a "Lease Default").  This "home" could be
another biofuel unit or a conversion to a cogeneration unit.  The third party
acquiring the Power Island must be acceptable to Equisol, acting reasonably.

2.3     In the event of Lease Default, Magellan will maintain its interest in
the Power Island and be able to remove and sell, in addition to the
Equipment, up to $1.4 million Cdn. value in respect of Balance of Plant,
subject to any first priority interest of Dynamotive on the Balance of Plant
under section 1.2(b) of this Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE 3
                        WARRANTS/CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

3.1     On execution of this Agreement, DynaMotive, will issue 500,000
warrants to Magellan exercisable into fully-paid and non-assessable shares of
DynaMotive ("Shares") at the option of Magellan at a price of $0.49 USD per
share at any time after the date of execution of the Marketing Cooperation
Agreement and expiring December 31, 2006.

3.2     On execution of this Agreement, Magellan, (the "Debenture Holder")
will enter into an agreement with DynaMotive whereby DynaMotive shall issue a
five year convertible debenture (the "Debenture") to the Debenture Holder.
The principal amount of this Debenture is $1,000,000 Cdn. (the "Principal
Amount") for a 5-year term. DynaMotive shall be required to pay the unpaid
balance of the Principal Amount of the Debenture on the fifth anniversary of
its issue (the "Maturity Date").  The Debenture Holder shall have the option
to convert all or a portion of the Debenture into fully-paid and non-
assessable Shares of DynaMotive for the Conversion Price, as hereinafter
defined, at any time or times prior to the Maturity Date with an associated
reduction in the outstanding Principal Amount equal  to the number of Shares
issued on each conversion (the "Conversion Date") times their conversion
price as calculated in the following paragraph.. e.

          The conversion parameters are:  20 day average TSX or NASD.Otcbb
closing price prior to the Conversion Date at a price not less than $0.40 USD
and a price not more than $0.60 USD ("Conversion Price").  Conversion shall
be at the Debenture Holder's option.  In addition, DynaMotive will issue
warrants to the Debenture Holder at a rate of 0.5 warrant per Share issued on
the Conversion Date at an exercise price of 5% above market on the Conversion
Date.  The warrants shall be exercisable into Shares at such time as
determined by the holder of the warrant prior to the Maturity Date.  The form
of warrant will be substantially the same as the warrant issued under
section 3.1 hereof except for the term and exercise price.

<PAGE>
                                       3


             DynaMotive at its option may prepay the Principal Amount in
whole or in part at any time or from time to time

             For example:

             Total conversion share calculation:
             Conversion if at 40 cents USD:  Underlying shares = 2,083,333
             shares plus 0.5 warrant per common share.

             The consideration for the issue of the Debenture shall be
cancellation of the $1,000,000 Cdn receivables owing by West Lorne to
Magellan to December 31, 2004 (as set out on Exhibit 1 to this Agreement).
The receivables shall include, without limitation, Magellan's carrying costs
and management costs.
