Re:       Farmout Agreement

West Jumpbush Area, Alberta

This Agreement reflects terms and conditions that are acceptable to both Moxie Exploration Ltd. ("Moxie") and Netco Energy Inc. ("Netco").

1.         DEFINITIONS

Each capitalized term used in this Agreement will have the meaning given to it in the 1997 CAPL Farmout and Royalty Procedure, and, in addition:

(a)        "Contract Depth" means:

(i)         for Test Wells:

(a)        15-25-19-20 W4M: a depth of 1425m or 15m into the Mississippian formation, whichever first occurs;

(b)        103/15-36-19-20 W4M: a depth of 1400m or 15m into the Glauconitic formation, whichever first occurs;

(c)         1-1-20-20 W4M: a depth of 1450m or 15m into the Mississippian formation, whichever first occurs.

(ii)        for Option Wells: a depth of 1425m or 15m into the Mississippian formation, whichever first occurs.

(b)           "Farmer" means Moxie

(c)           "Farmee" means Netco

2.         SCHEDULES

The following Schedules are attached hereto and made part of this Agreement:

(a)           Schedule "A" which describes the Title Documents, Farmout Lands and Option Lands.

(b)           Schedule "B" which is the 1997 CAPL Farmout and Royalty Procedure.

---

(c)          Schedule "C" which is the 1990 CAPL Operating Procedure and 1988 PASC Accounting Procedure.

3.          TEST WELLS

On or before April 30, 2003, Farmee shall spud the following three Test Wells:

15-25-19-20 W4M 103/15-36-19-20 W4M 1-1-20-20 W4M

Farmee shall participate (as to a 70% working interest) in the drilling, casing and completion of each of the three Test Wells.

4.         EARNING

Upon participating in the drilling of the three Test Wells to their respective Contracts Depths and casing and completing or abandoning the same, Farmee shall earn a 35% interest in the Farmout Lands (to the base of the deepest formation penetrated and evaluated).

The following exceptions will apply:

i)          CASING POINT ELECTION

At casing point of each Test Well, should Farmer propose to run casing, Farmee may elect to not participate in any further operations on that Test Well and thereby forfeit the right to earn an interest in any zone subsequently evaluated by the Test Well within the section of the Farmout Lands that the Test Well was drilled.

An election by Farmee to not participate in the casing of a Test Well will result in Farmee forfeiting its interest in the Test Well wellbore.

ii)         ZONE IN COMMUNICATION

Prior to September 30, 2003, should an independent evaluator conclusively determine a Glauconitic zone evaluated in any of the three Test Wells that Farmee retains an interest to be in communication ("Zone in Communication") with the Glauconitic zone currently producing gas at 2-36-19-20 W4M, Farmee shall immediately be notified of such determination. Within 14 days of receipt of this notification, Farmee shall elect to pursue one of the following options:

(a)     Abandon/Suspend the Zone in Communication and proceed to further evaluate the Test Well or:

(b)     Sell Farmee's interest in the Test Well to Farmer for a price equivalent to Farmee's total costs associated with the Test Well that have been incurred to date less any revenue received by Farmee for production from the Zone in Communication from the Test Well.

In the case of Option (a), Farmee's P & NG earning is unaffected.

In the case of Option (b), Farmee shall forfeit any interest earned and/or the right to earn an interest in any zone within the section of the Farmout Lands that the Test Well was drilled.

---

For the purpose of Farmee's P & NG earning, the portion of the Farmout Lands in the NW quarter of section 6-20-19 W4M is to be combined with section 1-20-20 W4M and thereby associated with the 1-1-20-20 W4M Test Well.

5.         OPTION WELLS

On or before October 15, 2003, Farmee may spud an Option Well on either or both of the sections comprising the Option Lands to earn an interest in each section drilled.

Earning provisions, exceptions and options that apply to the Option Wells and Option Lands are to be the same as those applied to the Test Wells and the Farmout Lands.

6.         AREA OF MUTUAL INTEREST

The parties hereto do hereby agree to an "Area of Mutual Interest" defined as including the following lands:

Twp 19, Rge 19 W4M: Sections 19, 30, & 31
