 (REVERSE OF SECURITY) 
 14% Senior Subordinated Convertible Secured Note due 2013 
 1. Interest. Baseline
Oil & Gas Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above. Interest on the Note will accrue from the most recent date on which
interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including the Issue Date. The Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, commencing April 1, 2008; provided, however, that the
Company shall be entitled to issue PIK Notes under the Indenture pursuant to Sections 2.02 and 2.13 thereof in lieu of the payment of such interest in cash (provided that the aggregate principal amount thereof shall be equal to the amount of
such interest (rounded to the nearest whole dollar)). Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The Company will pay interest on overdue principal at 1% per annum in excess of the above rate and
will pay interest on overdue installments of interest at such higher rate to the extent lawful. Additional Interest may accrue on this Note in certain circumstances pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement and all references to
“interest” in this Note shall include any Additional Interest due on this Note pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement. 
 2. Method of Payment. The Company shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are the registered Holders at the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding the
Interest Payment Date even if the Notes are cancelled on registration of transfer or registration of exchange after such Record Date, and on or before such Interest Payment Date. Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal
payments. The Company shall pay principal and (to the extent not paid in the form of a PIK Note pursuant to Sections 2.02 and 2.13 of the Indenture) interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of
public and private debts (“U.S. Legal Tender”). However, the Company may pay principal and interest by check payable in such U.S. Legal Tender. The Company may deliver any such interest payment to the Paying Agent or to a Holder at
the Holder’s registered address. 
 3. Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Registrar. Initially, The Bank of New York (the
“Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar without notice to the Holders. 
 4. Indenture. The Notes and the Guarantees were issued under an Indenture, dated as of October 1, 2007 (the “Indenture”),
among the Company, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent. Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture
by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on the date of the Indenture until such time as the Indenture is qualified under the TIA, and thereafter as in effect
on the date on which the Indenture is qualified under the TIA. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such 








 
terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms. The Notes are senior subordinated obligations of the
Company. Each Holder, by accepting a Note, agrees to be bound by all of the terms and provisions of the Indenture, as the same may be amended from time to time. 
 5. Redemption. 
 (a) Optional Redemption. Semi-annually beginning on October 1, 2009, we
may redeem up to 25% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding at a redemption price of 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to the date of redemption, only in the event the closing
price of shares of the Company’s Common Stock equals 150% or more of the Conversion Price then in effect for 20 of any 30 consecutive trading days, provided should we redeem any Notes prior to October 1, 2010 the Holders shall be entitled
to the make-whole premium set forth below under Section 4.10 as if the date of redemption were the date of conversion. 
 (b)
Mandatory Redemption. The Company is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 
 6. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption will be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address
with a copy to the Trustee and Paying Agent. If fewer than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, at any time, selection of Notes for redemption will be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities
exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed, or, if the Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the Trustee deems to be fair and appropriate. Notes in denominations of $1,000 may be redeemed only
in whole. The Trustee may select for redemption portions (equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Notes that have denominations larger than $1,000. 
 Except as set forth in the Indenture, if monies for the redemption of the Notes called for redemption shall have been deposited with the Paying Agent for
redemption on such Redemption Date sufficient to pay such Redemption Price plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, the Notes called for redemption will cease to bear interest from and after such Redemption Date, and the
only remaining right of the Holders of such Notes will be to receive payment of the Redemption Price plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, as of the Redemption Date upon surrender to the Paying Agent of the Notes
redeemed. 
 7. Offers to Purchase. Sections 5.15 and 5.16 of the Indenture provide that upon the occurrence of a Change
of Control and after certain Asset Sales, and subject to further limitations contained therein, the Company will make an offer to purchase certain amounts of the Notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. 
 8. Registration Rights. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement among the Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchaser, the Company
will be obligated to file a Shelf Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement). The 








 
Holders of the Notes shall be entitled to receive certain Additional Interest payments in the event such Shelf Registration Statement is not consummated and
upon certain other conditions, all pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement. 
 9. Conversion.
Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of Article 4 of the Indenture, at the option of the Holder thereof, any portion of the principal amount of this Note that is an integral multiple of $1,000 may be converted into fully paid and
non-assessable shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Rate, determined as provided in the Indenture, in effect at the time of conversion. The Holder may surrender Notes for conversion at the applicable Conversion Rate at any time after ninety
(90) days from the Original Issue Date until the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the final maturity date of the Notes. 
 Upon surrendering any Note for conversion, the Holder of such Note shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes, shares of Common Stock at an initial conversion rate of 1,389.00 shares per $1,000
principal amount of Notes (the “Conversion Rate”), which is based upon an initial Conversion Price of approximately $0.72 per share. The Conversion Rate (and Conversion Price) are subject to adjustment as described in the Indenture.

 The date on which a Holder of a Physical Note or holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note completes the requirements of
Section 4.03(a) of the Indenture shall be deemed to be the date of conversion (the “Conversion Date”) for purposes of Article 4 of the Indenture. On and after the Conversion Date, the conversion by such Holder or holder, as set
forth in the Conversion Notice, shall become irrevocable. 
 In the event a Holder elects to exercise its right to convert its Notes pursuant
to Article 4 of the Indenture, and such election occurs prior to October 10, 2010, such Holder shall be entitled to receive a make-whole premium. This amount will consist of the present value of all required interest payments on the Notes as if
paid in cash from such conversion through October 10, 2010 (including any accrued but unpaid interest), computed using a discount rate equal to the Reinvestment Yield determined on the Conversion Date (the “Conversion Make-Whole
Amount”). The Company shall have thirty (30) days from the Conversion Date to pay the Conversion Make-Whole Amount. 
 10.
Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof. A Holder shall register the transfer of or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Indenture.
The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes, fees or similar governmental charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the Indenture. The
Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange of any Notes or portions thereof selected for redemption. 
 11. Persons Deemed
Owners. The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 
 12. Unclaimed Money. If money for
the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent may pay the money without interest thereon back to the Company. After that, all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to
such money shall cease. 







 13. Discharge Prior to Redemption or Maturity. If the Company at any time deposits with the
Trustee U.S. Legal Tender or U.S. Government Obligations sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes to redemption or stated maturity and complies with the other provisions of the Indenture relating thereto, the Company will be
discharged from certain provisions of the Indenture and the Notes (including certain covenants, but excluding its obligation to pay the principal of and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes). 
 14. Amendment; Supplement; Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees and the Collateral Agreements may be
amended or supplemented with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, and any existing Default or Event of Default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the
written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. Without consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees, or the Collateral
Agreements to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, provide for the assumption of the Company’s or any Guarantor’s obligations
in accordance with Section 6.01 and Section 12.04 of the Indenture, make any other change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders that does not adversely affect the legal rights of any Holder of a
Note, to comply with the TIA, to allow for additional guarantees, if necessary, in connection with any addition or release of Collateral permitted under the Indenture or the Collateral Agreements, to release a Guarantor from its Guarantee as
permitted by the Indenture and to conform the text of the Indenture, the Collateral Agreements, the Notes and the Guarantees to the Offering Circular if necessary. 
 15. Restrictive Covenants. The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional Indebtedness or grant Liens, make
payments in respect of their Capital Stock or certain Indebtedness, enter into transactions with Affiliates, create dividend or other payment restrictions affecting Subsidiaries, merge or consolidate with any other Person, sell, assign, transfer,
lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets or adopt a plan of liquidation. Such limitations are subject to a number of important qualifications and exceptions. The Company must annually report to the Trustee on
compliance with such limitations. 
 16. Successors. When a successor assumes, in accordance with the Indenture, all the obligations
of its predecessor under the Notes, the Guarantees and the Indenture, the predecessor will be released from those obligations. 
 17.
Defaults and Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing (other than certain events of bankruptcy involving the Company), the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes may declare
all the Notes to be due and payable in the manner, at the time and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not 








 
obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it has received indemnity satisfactory to it. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations
therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event
of Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. 
 18.
Subordination. The Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Indenture, to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt (whether outstanding on the date hereof or
hereafter created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed) of the Company. 
 19. Trustee Dealings with Company. Subject to the terms of the
TIA and the Indenture, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates as if it were not the
Trustee. 
 20. No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future affiliate, director, officer, employee, incorporator or holder
of any equity interests in the Company or a Guarantor or any direct or indirect parent corporation of the Company or a Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Company or a Guarantor under the Notes, the Guarantees or
the Indenture, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for
issuance of the Notes. Each of the parties hereto acknowledge that such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws. 
 21. Guarantees. Payment of principal and interest (including interest on overdue principal and overdue interest, if lawful), is unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of the
Guarantors. 
 22. Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee or Authenticating Agent manually signs the
certificate of authentication on this Note. 
 23. Governing Law. THIS NOTE, THE INDENTURE, THE GUARANTEES AND THE COLLATERAL
AGREEMENTS (OTHER THAN THE MORTGAGES) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AS APPLIED TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED WITHIN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS.
EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES TO SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS NOTE, THE INDENTURE, THE GUARANTEES AND THE COLLATERAL AGREEMENTS (OTHER THAN THE
MORTGAGES) OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS NOTE. 
 24. Abbreviations and Defined Terms. Customary abbreviations may be used

 25. Security. The Company’s and Guarantors’ obligations under the Notes are secured by
liens on the Collateral pursuant to the terms of the Collateral Agreements. The actions of the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes secured by such liens and the application of proceeds from the enforcement of any remedies with respect to such
Collateral are limited pursuant to the terms of the Collateral Agreements. 
 26. CUSIP Numbers. Pursuant to a recommendation
promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes as a convenience to the Holders of the Notes. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers as
printed on the Notes and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed thereon.
