EXHIBIT 10.1


CAPITAL CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT 


 


 


THIS CAPITAL CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of this 29th day of June, 2007, by and among China North East Petroleum Holdings Limited, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), Mr. Hong Jun Wang, Chairman of the Board and President of the Company (“Mr Wang”) and Ms. Guizhi Ju (“Ms Ju”). 


 


RECITALS  


 


WHEREAS, during fiscal years 2005, 2006 and 2007, Mr. Wang and Ms. Ju collectively, made cash advances to the Company or its subsidiaries in an aggregate amount of $7,197,813 (the “Advances”), which funds have been used to develop the Company’s oil field assets in Jilin Province. 


 


WHEREAS, on January 26, 2007, the Company, through its 90% owned subsidiary Song Yuan North East Petroleum Technical Service Co., Ltd., a PRC limited liability company, acquired all of the interests in Song Yuan City Yu Qiao Oil and Gas Development Limited Corporation, a PRC limited liability company from Ms. Ju. In consideration for the acquisition, the Company issued to Ms. Ju an aggregate of 10 million shares of its common stock (the “Acquisition Shares”), having a market value of approximately U.S.$3.1 million based on the preceding 30-day average of the high bid and the low ask price for the Company’s common stock as quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board as of the Closing.  


 


WHEREAS, the Company continues to require significant additional capital to develop the Company’s oil field assets. 


 


WHEREAS, in part as a result of the Advances and the issuance of the Acquisition Shares, the Company’s debt to equity ratio and its earnings per share (EPS) has had a material adverse affect on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital either through debt or equity facilities. 


 


WHEREAS, in order to improve the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, Mr. Wang and Ms. Ju desire to contribute all of the Advances and Ms. Ju desires to contribute all of the Acquisition Shares to the Company.
