Exhibit 10.2




Stock Subscription Agreement



This Stock Subscription Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into by and between Terence P.
Coyne (“Investor”) and John D. Oil and Gas Company, a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), as of
February 28, 2006.




     1. Sale and Purchase of Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement, the Company hereby sells to Investor, and Investor hereby purchases from the Company for
investment, 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Common
Stock”). As consideration for the purchase of Common Stock, Investor hereby pays to the Company
the sum of $100,000 (the “Purchase Price”). The shares of Common Stock being purchased by Investor
are referred to as the “Subscription Shares.”



     2. Representation and Warranty of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to
Investor that the Subscription Shares, when issued, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable by the Company.



     3. Representations and Warranties of Investor. Investor understands that the sale of
Subscription Shares is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”), by virtue of Sections 3(b) and 4(2) of the Securities Act, and
Investor represents and warrants that:



          (a) Investor has been advised that the Subscription Shares have not been registered under the
Securities Act and, therefore, cannot be resold unless they are registered under the Securities Act
or unless an exemption from registration is available and the certificates representing the
subscription shares will be legended accordingly. Investor is aware that there is a limited market
for the resale of the Subscription Shares, and that he may be required to hold the Subscription
Shares indefinitely. Investor is purchasing the Subscription Shares for his own account for
investment and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, the distribution thereof, and
Investor has no present intention of distributing or reselling the Subscription Shares. Investor
represents and warrants that he has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters
that he is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such investment and is able to bear the
economic risk of such investment.




          (b) In addition to any other legends required by any agreement or otherwise, the certificates
representing Subscription Shares shall be conspicuously endorsed in substantially the following
form:





THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ISSUED IN A PRIVATE
PLACEMENT, WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
(THE “ACT”). NO TRANSFER OF SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE MADE ON THE BOOKS OF THE
ISSUER, UNLESS ACCOMPANIED BY AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE
ISSUER, THAT SUCH TRANSFER MAY PROPERLY BE MADE WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER
THE ACT OR THAT SUCH SECURITIES HAVE BEEN
SO REGISTERED UNDER A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WHICH IS IN EFFECT AT THE DATE
OF SUCH TRANSFER.



 









 





          (c) Investor is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of
Regulation D of the Securities Act.




          (d) This Stock Subscription Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Investor and
constitutes Investor’s legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its
terms.




          (e) Investor has made a complete and thorough investigation of the affairs and prospects of
the Company and has had a reasonable opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from a
person or persons acting on behalf of the Company concerning this investment, and all such
questions have been answered to the full satisfaction of Investor.




          (f) Investor acknowledges that the Company is entering into this Agreement in reliance upon
Investor’s representations and warranties in this Agreement.




     4. Covenants and Representations to Survive Delivery; Assignment. All covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties made in this Agreement will survive the delivery to Investor of the
Subscription Shares and payment therefor and, notwithstanding any investigation previously of in
the future made by Investor or on Investor’s behalf, shall continue in full force and effect.
Investor may not assign any of his rights hereunder. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties
hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the heirs, successors and
permitted assigns of such party, and all covenants, promises and agreements in this Agreement by or
on behalf of the Company, or by or on behalf of Investor, shall bind and inure to the benefit of
the heirs, successors and permitted assigns of such party hereto.



     5. Governing Law; Amendments. This Stock Subscription Agreement shall be construed and
enforced in accordance with the domestic substantive laws of the State of Ohio without
giving effect to any choice or conflict of laws provision or rule that would cause the application
of the domestic substantive laws of any other state. This Agreement cannot be changed orally, and
can be changed only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of
such change is sought.


In Witness Whereof, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the
