    II.
       AGREEMENT

    

    1.
       Grant
      of Option.
      The
      Company hereby grants to the Optionee named in the Notice of Grant (the
      "Optionee"), an option (the "Option") to purchase the number of Shares set
      forth
      in the Notice of Grant, at the exercise price per Share set forth in the Notice
      of Grant (the "Exercise Price"), and subject to the terms and conditions of
      the
      Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. The Exercise Price is equal
      to
      or greater than the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the Date of Grant. In
      the
      event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Option
      Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail.

     

    If
      designated in the Notice of Grant as an Incentive Stock Option ("ISO"), this
      Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option as defined in
      Section 422 of the Code. Nevertheless, to the extent that it exceeds the
      $100,000 rule of Code Section 422(d), this Option shall be treated as a
      Nonstatutory Stock Option ("NSO").

    

    2. Exercise
      of Option.
      

    

    (a) Right
      to Exercise.
      This
      Option shall be exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting
      Schedule set out in the Notice of Grant and with the applicable provisions
      of
      the Plan and this Option Agreement.\

     

    (b) Method
      of Exercise.
      This
      Option shall be exercisable by delivery of an exercise notice in the form
      attached as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”) which shall state the election to
      exercise the Option, the number of Shares (the “Exercised Shares”) with respect
      to which the Option is being exercised, and such other representations and
      agreements as may be required by the Company. The Exercise Notice shall be
      accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as to all Exercised
      Shares. This Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company
      of such fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by the aggregate Exercise
      Price.

     

    No
      Shares
      shall be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option unless such issuance
      and
      such exercise complies with Applicable Laws. Assuming such compliance, for
      income tax purposes the Shares shall be considered transferred to the Optionee
      on the date on which the Option is exercised with respect to such
      Shares.

    

    3. Optionee's
      Representations.
      In the
      event the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
      as
      amended, at the time this Option is exercised, the Optionee shall, if required
      by the Company, concurrently with the exercise of all or any portion of this
      Option, deliver to the Company his or her Investment Representation Statement
      in
      the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.

    

    4. Lock-Up
      Period.
      Optionee hereby agrees that, if so requested by the Company or any
      representative of the underwriters (the "Managing Underwriter") in connection
      with any registration of the offering of any securities of the Company under
      the
      Securities Act, Optionee shall not sell or otherwise transfer any Shares or
      other securities of the Company during the 180-day period (or such other period
      as may be requested in writing by the Managing Underwriter and agreed to in
      writing by the Company) (the "Market Standoff Period") following the effective
      date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the
      Securities Act. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with
      respect to securities subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of
      such Market Standoff Period. 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    5. Method
      of Payment.
      Payment
      of the aggregate Exercise Price shall be by any of the following, or a
      combination thereof, at the election of the Optionee:

     

    (a) cash
      or
      check (denominated in U.S. Dollars); 

     

    (b)
       consideration
      received by the Company under a formal cashless exercise program adopted by
      the
      Company in connection with the Plan; or 

     

    (c) surrender
      of other Shares which, (i) in the case of Shares acquired from the Company
      (whether upon the exercise of an option or otherwise), have been owned by the
      Optionee for more than six (6) months on the date of surrender (unless this
      condition is waived by the Administrator), and (ii) have a Fair Market Value
      on
      the date of surrender equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the Exercised
      Shares.

    

    6. Restrictions
      on Exercise.
      This
      Option may not be exercised until such time as the Plan has been approved by
      the
      shareholders of the Company, or if the issuance of such Shares upon such
      exercise or the method of payment of consideration for such Shares would
      constitute a violation of any Applicable Law. 

    

    7. Non-Transferability
      of Option.
      This
      Option may not be transferred in any manner otherwise than by will or by the
      laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised during the lifetime of
      Optionee only by Optionee. The terms of the Plan and this Option Agreement
      shall
      be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns
      of
      the Optionee.

    

    8. Term
      of Option.
      This
      Option may be exercised only within the term set out in the Notice of Grant,
      and
      may be exercised during such term only in accordance with the Plan and the
      terms
      of this Option.

    

    9. Entire
      Agreement; Governing Law.
      The
      Plan is incorporated herein by reference. The Plan and this Option Agreement
      constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject
      matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and
      agreements of the Company and Optionee with respect to the subject matter
      hereof, and may not be modified adversely to the Optionee's interest except
      by
      means of a writing signed by the Company and Optionee. This Agreement is
      governed by the internal substantive laws, but not the choice of law rules,
      of
      Florida.

    

    10. No
      Guarantee of Continued Service.
      OPTIONEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF SHARES PURSUANT TO THE
      VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER
      AT
      THE WILL OF THE COMPANY (NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED
      THIS
      OPTION OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER). OPTIONEE FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES
      THAT THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING
      SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF
      CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY
      PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND SHALL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH OPTIONEE'S RIGHT
      OR
      THE COMPANY'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE OPTIONEE'S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER
      AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE.

    Optionee
      acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and represents that he or she is
      familiar with the terms and provisions thereof, and hereby accepts this Option
      subject to all of the terms and provisions thereof. Optionee has reviewed the
      Plan and this Option in their entirety, has had an opportunity to obtain the
      advice of counsel prior to executing this Option and fully understands all
      provisions of the Option. Optionee hereby agrees to accept as binding,
      conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Administrator
      upon
      any questions arising under the Plan or this Option. Optionee further agrees
      to
      notify the Company upon any change in the residence address indicated
      below.

      the
      Common Stock (the "Shares") of Tekoil & Gas Corporation (the "Company")
      under and pursuant to the Tekoil & Gas Corporation Omnibus Equity Plan (the

      and the Option Agreement and agrees to abide by and be bound by their terms
      and
      conditions. 

    

    4. Rights
      as Shareholder.
      Until
      the issuance of the Shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books
      of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right
      to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder shall exist
      with respect to the Optioned Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option.
      The Shares shall be issued to the Optionee as soon as practicable after the
      Option is exercised. No adjustment shall be made for a dividend or other right
      for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance.

    

    5. Company's
      Right of First Refusal.
      Before
      any Shares held by Optionee or any transferee (either being sometimes referred
      to herein as the "Holder") may be sold or otherwise transferred (including
      transfer by gift or operation of law), the Company or its assignee(s) shall
      have
      a right of first refusal to purchase the Shares on the terms and conditions
      set
      forth in this Section (the "Right of First Refusal").

    

    (a) Notice
      of Proposed Transfer.
      The
      Holder of the Shares shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the
      "Notice") stating: (i) the Holder's bona fide intention to sell or
      otherwise transfer such Shares; (ii) the name of each proposed purchaser or
      other transferee ("Proposed Transferee"); (iii) the number of Shares to be
      transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (iv) the bona fide cash price
      or other consideration for which the Holder proposes to transfer the Shares
      (the
      "Offered Price"), and the Holder shall offer the Shares at the Offered Price
      to
      the Company or its assignee(s).

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (b) Exercise
      of Right of First Refusal.
      At any
      time within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or
      its
      assignee(s) may, by giving written notice to the Holder, elect to purchase
      all,
      but not less than all, of the Shares proposed to be transferred to any one
      or
      more of the Proposed Transferees, at the purchase price determined in accordance
      with subsection (c) below.

    

    (c) Purchase
      Price.
      The
      purchase price ("Purchase Price") for the Shares purchased by the Company or
      its
      assignee(s) under this Section shall be the Offered Price. If the Offered Price
      includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the
      non-cash consideration shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the
      Company in good faith.

    

    (d) Payment.
      Payment
      of the Purchase Price shall be made, at the option of the Company or its
      assignee(s), in cash (or by check), by cancellation of all or a portion of
      any
      outstanding indebtedness of the Holder to the Company (or, in the case of
      repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee), or by any combination thereof
      within 30 days after receipt of the Notice or in the manner and at the times
      set
      forth in the Notice.

    

    (e) Holder's
      Right to Transfer.
      If all
      of the Shares proposed in the Notice to be transferred to a given Proposed
      Trans-feree are not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided
      in this Section, then the Holder may sell or otherwise transfer such Shares
      to
      that Proposed Transferee at the Offered Price or at a higher price, provided
      that such sale or other transfer is consummated within 120 days after the date
      of the Notice, that any such sale or other transfer is effected in accordance
      with any applicable securities laws and that the Proposed Transferee agrees
      in
      writing that the provisions of this Section shall continue to apply to the
      Shares in the hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the Shares described in
      the
      Notice are not transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, a
      new
      Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees
      shall
      again be offered the Right of First Refusal before any Shares held by the Holder
      may be sold or otherwise transferred.

    

    (f) Exception
      for Certain Family Transfers.
      Anything to the contrary contained in this Section notwithstanding, the
      trans-fer of any or all of the Shares during the Optionee's lifetime or on
      the
      Optionee's death by will or intestacy to the Optionee's immediate family or
      a
      trust for the benefit of the Optionee's immediate family shall be exempt from
      the provisions of this Section. "Immediate Family" as used herein shall mean
      spouse, lineal descendant or antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister.
      In
      such case, the transferee or other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares
      so transferred subject to the provisions of this Section, and there shall be
      no
      further transfer of such Shares except in accordance with the terms of this
      Section.

    

    (g) Termination
      of Right of First Refusal.
      The
      Right of First Refusal shall terminate as to any Shares upon the first sale
      of
      Common Stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration
      statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
      Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

    

    6. Tax
      Consultation.
      Optionee understands that Optionee may suffer adverse tax consequences as a
      result of Optionee's purchase or disposition of the Shares. Optionee represents
      that Optionee has consulted with any tax consultants Optionee deems advisable
      in
      connection with the purchase or disposition of the Shares and that Optionee
      is
      not relying on the Company for any tax advice.

    7. Restrictive
      Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders.

    

    (a) Legends.
      Optionee understands and agrees that the Company shall cause the legends set
      forth below or legends substantially equivalent thereto, to be placed upon
      any
      certificate(s) evidencing ownership of the Shares together with any other
      legends that may be required by the Company or by state or federal securities
      laws:

    

    THE
      SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES
      ACT
      OF 1933 (THE "ACT") AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED,
      PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND UNTIL REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT OR, IN THE
      OPINION OF COMPANY COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES,
      SUCH
      OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION IS IN COMPLIANCE
      THEREWITH.

    

    THE
      SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS
      ON
      TRANSFER AND A RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL HELD BY THE ISSUER OR ITS ASSIGNEE(S)
      AS
      SET FORTH IN THE EXERCISE NOTICE BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER
      OF
      THESE SHARES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE
      ISSUER. SUCH TRANSFER RESTRIC-TIONS AND RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL ARE BINDING
      ON
      TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES.

    

    (b) Stop-Transfer
      Notices.
      Optionee agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions
      referred to herein, the Company may issue appropriate "stop transfer"
      instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers
      its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in
      its own records.

    

    (c) Refusal
      to Transfer.
      The
      Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that
      have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions
      of
      this Agreement or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the
      right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom
      such
      Shares shall have been so transferred.

    

    8. Successors
      and Assigns.
      The
      Company may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to single or multiple
      assignees, and this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors
      and

    OPTIONEE:    RICHARD
      CREITZMAN

    

    COMPANY:  
TEKOIL
      & GAS CORPORATION

    

    SECURITY:    COMMON
      STOCK

    

    AMOUNT:  

    

    DATE:   

    

    In
      connection with the purchase of the above-listed Securities, the undersigned
      Optionee represents to the Company the following:

    

    (a) Optionee
      is aware of the Company's business affairs and financial condition and has
      acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and
      knowledgeable decision to acquire the Securities. Optionee is acquiring these
      Securities for investment for Optionee's own account only and not with a view
      to, or for resale in connection with, any "distribution" thereof within the
      meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
      Act").

    

    (b) Optionee
      acknowledges and understands that the Securities constitute "restricted
      securities" under the Securities Act and have not been registered under the
      Securities Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption
      depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Optionee's investment
      intent as expressed herein. In this connection, Optionee understands that,
      in
      the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the statutory basis for
      such
      exemption may be unavailable if Optionee's representation was predicated solely
      upon a present intention to hold these Securities for the minimum capital gains
      period specified under tax statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an
      increase or decrease in the market price of the Securities, or for a period
      of
      one year or any other fixed period in the future. Optionee further understands
      that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently
      registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration
      is
      available. Optionee further acknowledges and understands that the Company is
      under no obligation to register the Securities. Optionee understands that the
      certificate evidencing the Securities will be imprinted with a legend which
      prohibits the transfer of the Securities unless they are registered or such
      registration is not required in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the
      Company and any other legend required under applicable state securities
      laws.

    

    (c) Optionee
      is familiar with the provisions of Rule 701 and Rule 144, each
      promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permit limited public
      resale of "restricted securities" acquired, directly or indirectly from the
      issuer thereof, in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain
      conditions. Rule 701 provides that if the issuer qualifies under
      Rule 701 at the time of the grant of the Option to the Optionee, the
      exercise will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act. In the
      event
      the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or
      15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, ninety (90) days thereafter (or
      such longer period as any market stand-off agreement may require) the Securities
      exempt under Rule 701 may be resold, subject to the satisfaction of certain
      of the conditions specified by Rule 144, including: (1) the resale
      being made through a broker in an unsolicited "broker's transaction" or in
      transactions directly with a market maker (as said term is defined under
      the Securities Exchange Act of 1934); and, in the case of an affiliate,
      (2) the availability of certain public information about the Company, (3)
      the amount of Securities being sold during any three-month period not exceeding
      the limitations specified in Rule 144(e), and (4) the timely filing of a
      Form 144, if applicable.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    In
      the
      event that the Company does not qualify under Rule 701 at the time of grant
      of the Option, then the Securities may be resold in certain limited
      circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144, which
      requires the resale to occur not less than two years after the later of the
      date the Securities were sold by the Company or the date the Securities were
      sold by an affiliate of the Company, within the meaning of Rule 144; and,
      in the case of acquisition of the Securities by an affiliate, or by a
      non-affiliate who subsequently holds the Securities less than three years,
      the
      satisfaction of the conditions set forth in sections (1), (2), (3) and (4)
      of
      the paragraph immediately above.

    

    (d) Optionee
      further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of
      Rule 701 or 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act,
      compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be
      required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rules 144 and 701 are not
      exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed
      its
      opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than
      in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rules 144 or 701 will
      have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from
      registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and
      their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their
      own
      risk. Optionee understands that no assurances can be given that any such other
      registration exemption will be available in such event.

     

    Signature
      of Optionee:

      Period:

    

    This
      Option shall be exercisable from the date hereof through the Term/Expiration
      Date as provided above.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    II.
       AGREEMENT

    

    1.
       Grant
      of Option.
      The
      Company hereby grants to the Optionee named in the Notice of Grant (the
      "Optionee"), an option (the "Option") to purchase the number of Shares set
      forth
      in the Notice of Grant, at the exercise price per Share set forth in the Notice
      of Grant (the "Exercise Price"), and subject to the terms and conditions of
      the
      Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. The Exercise Price is equal
      to
      or greater than the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the Date of Grant. In
      the
      event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Option
      Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail.

     

    If
      designated in the Notice of Grant as an Incentive Stock Option ("ISO"), this
      Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option as defined in
      Section 422 of the Code. Nevertheless, to the extent that it exceeds the
      $100,000 rule of Code Section 422(d), this Option shall be treated as a
      Nonstatutory Stock Option ("NSO").

    

    2. Exercise
      of Option.
      

     

    (a) Right
      to Exercise.
      This
      Option shall be exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting
      Schedule set out in the Notice of Grant and with the applicable provisions
      of
      the Plan and this Option Agreement.

     

    (b) Method
      of Exercise.
      This
      Option shall be exercisable by delivery of an exercise notice in the form
      attached as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”) which shall state the election to
      exercise the Option, the number of Shares (the “Exercised Shares”) with respect
      to which the Option is being exercised, and such other representations and
      agreements as may be required by the Company. The Exercise Notice shall be
      accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as to all Exercised
      Shares. This Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company
      of such fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by the aggregate Exercise
      Price.

     

    No
      Shares
      shall be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option unless such issuance
      and
      such exercise complies with Applicable Laws. Assuming such compliance, for
      income tax purposes the Shares shall be considered transferred to the Optionee
      on the date on which the Option is exercised with respect to such
      Shares.

    

    3. Optionee's
      Representations.
      In the
      event the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
      as
      amended, at the time this Option is exercised, the Optionee shall, if required
      by the Company, concurrently with the exercise of all or any portion of this
      Option, deliver to the Company his or her Investment Representation Statement
      in
      the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.

    

    4. Lock-Up
      Period.
      Optionee hereby agrees that, if so requested by the Company or any
      representative of the underwriters (the "Managing Underwriter") in connection
      with any registration of the offering of any securities of the Company under
      the
      Securities Act, Optionee shall not sell or otherwise transfer any Shares or
      other securities of the Company during the 180-day period (or such other period
      as may be requested in writing by the Managing Underwriter and agreed to in
      writing by the Company) (the "Market Standoff Period") following the effective
      date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the
      Securities Act. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with
      respect to securities subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of
      such Market Standoff Period. 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    5. Method
      of Payment.
      Payment
      of the aggregate Exercise Price shall be by any of the following, or a
      combination thereof, at the election of the Optionee:

     

    (a) cash
      or
      check (denominated in U.S. Dollars);

     

    (b)
       consideration
      received by the Company under a formal cashless exercise program adopted by
      the
      Company in connection with the Plan; or 

     

    (c) surrender
      of other Shares which, (i) in the case of Shares acquired from the Company
      (whether upon the exercise of an option or otherwise), have been owned by the
      Optionee for more than six (6) months on the date of surrender (unless this
      condition is waived by the Administrator), and (ii) have a Fair Market Value
      on
      the date of surrender equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the Exercised
      Shares.

    

    6. Restrictions
      on Exercise.
      This
      Option may not be exercised until such time as the Plan has been approved by
      the
      shareholders of the Company, or if the issuance of such Shares upon such
      exercise or the method of payment of consideration for such Shares would
      constitute a violation of any Applicable Law. 

    

    7. Non-Transferability
      of Option.
      This
      Option may not be transferred in any manner otherwise than by will or by the
      laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised during the lifetime of
      Optionee only by Optionee. The terms of the Plan and this Option Agreement
      shall
      be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns
      of
      the Optionee.

    

    8. Term
      of Option.
      This
      Option may be exercised only within the term set out in the Notice of Grant,
      and
      may be exercised during such term only in accordance with the Plan and the terms
      of this Option.

    

    9. Entire
      Agreement; Governing Law.
      The
      Plan is incorporated herein by reference. The Plan and this Option Agreement
      constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject
      matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and
      agreements of the Company and Optionee with respect to the subject matter
      hereof, and may not be modified adversely to the Optionee's interest except
      by
      means of a writing signed by the Company and Optionee. This Agreement is
      governed by the internal substantive laws, but not the choice of law rules,
      of
      Florida.

    

    10. No
      Guarantee of Continued Service.
      OPTIONEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF SHARES PURSUANT TO THE
      VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER
      AT
      THE WILL OF THE COMPANY (NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED
      THIS
      OPTION OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER). OPTIONEE FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES
      THAT THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING
      SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF
      CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY
      PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND SHALL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH OPTIONEE'S RIGHT
      OR
      THE COMPANY'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE OPTIONEE'S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER
      AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE.

    Optionee
      acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and represents that he or she is
      familiar with the terms and provisions thereof, and hereby accepts this Option
      subject to all of the terms and provisions thereof. Optionee has reviewed the
      Plan and this Option in their entirety, has had an opportunity to obtain the
      advice of counsel prior to executing this Option and fully understands all
      provisions of the Option. Optionee hereby agrees to accept as binding,
      conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Administrator
      upon
      any questions arising under the Plan or this Option. Optionee further agrees
      to
      notify the Company upon any change in the residence address indicated
      below.

    3. Representations
      of Optionee.
      Optionee acknowledges that Optionee has received, read and understood the Plan
      and the Option Agreement and agrees to abide by and be bound by their terms
      and
      conditions. 

    

    4. Rights
      as Shareholder.
      Until
      the issuance of the Shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books
      of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right
      to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder shall exist
      with respect to the Optioned Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option.
      The Shares shall be issued to the Optionee as soon as practicable after the
      Option is exercised. No adjustment shall be made for a dividend or other right
      for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance.

    

    5. Company's
      Right of First Refusal.
      Before
      any Shares held by Optionee or any transferee (either being sometimes referred
      to herein as the "Holder") may be sold or otherwise transferred (including
      transfer by gift or operation of law), the Company or its assignee(s) shall
      have
      a right of first refusal to purchase the Shares on the terms and conditions
      set
      forth in this Section (the "Right of First Refusal").

    

    (a) Notice
      of Proposed Transfer.
      The
      Holder of the Shares shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the
      "Notice") stating: (i) the Holder's bona fide intention to sell or
      otherwise transfer such Shares; (ii) the name of each proposed purchaser or
      other transferee ("Proposed Transferee"); (iii) the number of Shares to be
      transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (iv) the bona fide cash price
      or other consideration for which the Holder proposes to transfer the Shares
      (the
      "Offered Price"), and the Holder shall offer the Shares at the Offered Price
      to
      the Company or its assignee(s).

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (b) Exercise
      of Right of First Refusal.
      At any
      time within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or
      its
      assignee(s) may, by giving written notice to the Holder, elect to purchase
      all,
      but not less than all, of the Shares proposed to be transferred to any one
      or
      more of the Proposed Transferees, at the purchase price determined in accordance
      with subsection (c) below.

    

    (c) Purchase
      Price.
      The
      purchase price ("Purchase Price") for the Shares purchased by the Company or
      its
      assignee(s) under this Section shall be the Offered Price. If the Offered Price
      includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the
      non-cash consideration shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the
      Company in good faith.

    

    (d) Payment.
      Payment
      of the Purchase Price shall be made, at the option of the Company or its
      assignee(s), in cash (or by check), by cancellation of all or a portion of
      any
      outstanding indebtedness of the Holder to the Company (or, in the case of
      repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee), or by any combination thereof
      within 30 days after receipt of the Notice or in the manner and at the times
      set
      forth in the Notice.

    

    (e) Holder's
      Right to Transfer.
      If all
      of the Shares proposed in the Notice to be transferred to a given Proposed
      Transferee are not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided
      in this Section, then the Holder may sell or otherwise transfer such Shares
      to
      that Proposed Transferee at the Offered Price or at a higher price, provided
      that such sale or other transfer is consummated within 120 days after the date
      of the Notice, that any such sale or other transfer is effected in accordance
      with any applicable securities laws and that the Proposed Transferee agrees
      in
      writing that the provisions of this Section shall continue to apply to the
      Shares in the hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the Shares described in
      the
      Notice are not transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, a
      new
      Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees
      shall
      again be offered the Right of First Refusal before any Shares held by the Holder
      may be sold or otherwise transferred.

    

    (f) Exception
      for Certain Family Transfers.
      Anything to the contrary contained in this Section notwithstanding, the transfer
      of any or all of the Shares during the Optionee's lifetime or on the Optionee's
      death by will or intestacy to the Optionee's immediate family or a trust for
      the
      benefit of the Optionee's immediate family shall be exempt from the provisions
      of this Section. "Immediate Family" as used herein shall mean spouse, lineal
      descendant or antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister. In such case,
      the
      transferee or other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares so transferred
      subject to the provisions of this Section, and there shall be no further
      transfer of such Shares except in accordance with the terms of this
      Section.

    

    (g) Termination
      of Right of First Refusal.
      The
      Right of First Refusal shall terminate as to any Shares upon the first sale
      of
      Common Stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration
      statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
      Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

    

    6. Tax
      Consultation.
      Optionee understands that Optionee may suffer adverse tax consequences as a
      result of Optionee's purchase or disposition of the Shares. Optionee represents
      that Optionee has consulted with any tax consultants Optionee deems advisable
      in
      connection with the purchase or disposition of the Shares and that Optionee
      is
      not relying on the Company for any tax advice.

    7. Restrictive
      Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders.

    

    (a) Legends.
      Optionee understands and agrees that the Company shall cause the legends set
      forth below or legends substantially equivalent thereto, to be placed upon
      any
      certificate(s) evidencing ownership of the Shares together with any other
      legends that may be required by the Company or by state or federal securities
      laws:

    

    THE
      SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES
      ACT
      OF 1933 (THE "ACT") AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED,
      PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND UNTIL REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT OR, IN THE
      OPINION OF COMPANY COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES,
      SUCH
      OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPO-THECATION IS IN COMPLIANCE
      THEREWITH.

    

    THE
      SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS
      ON
      TRANSFER AND A RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL HELD BY THE ISSUER OR ITS ASSIGNEE(S)
      AS
      SET FORTH IN THE EXERCISE NOTICE BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER
      OF
      THESE SHARES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE
      ISSUER. SUCH TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS AND RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL ARE BINDING ON
      TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES.

    

    (b) Stop-Transfer
      Notices.
      Optionee agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions
      referred to herein, the Company may issue appropriate "stop transfer"
      instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers
      its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in
      its own records.

    

    (c) Refusal
      to Transfer.
      The
      Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that
      have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions
      of
      this Agreement or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the
      right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom
      such
      Shares shall have been so transferred.

    

    8. Successors
      and Assigns.
      The
      Company may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to single or multiple
      assignees, and this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors
      and
      assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer herein set
      forth, this Agreement shall be binding upon Optionee and his or her heirs,
      executors, administrators, successors and assigns.

    

    9. Interpretation.
      Any
      dispute regarding the interpretation of this Agreement shall be submitted by
      Optionee or by the Company forthwith to the Administrator which shall review
      such dispute at its next regular meeting. The resolution of such a dispute
      by
      the Administrator shall be final and binding on all parties.

    10. Governing
      Law; Severability.
      This
      Agreement is governed by the internal substantive laws, but not the choice
      of
      law rules, of Florida.

    

    11. Entire
      Agreement.
      The
      Plan and Option Agreement are incorporated herein by reference. This Agreement,
      the Plan, the Option Agreement and the Investment Representation Statement
      con-sti-tute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject
      matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and
      agreements of the Company and Optionee with respect to the subject matter
      hereof, and may not be modified adversely to the Optionee's interest except
      by
      means of a writing signed by the Company and Optionee.

    INVESTMENT
      REPRESENTATION STATEMENT

    

    OPTIONEE:    FRANCIS
      G. CLEAR

    

    COMPANY:   TEKOIL
      & GAS CORPORATION

    

    SECURITY:    COMMON
      STOCK

    

    AMOUNT:  

    

    DATE:   

    

    In
      connection with the purchase of the above-listed Securities, the undersigned
      Optionee represents to the Company the following:

    

    (a) Optionee
      is aware of the Company's business affairs and financial condition and has
      acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and
      knowledgeable decision to acquire the Securities. Optionee is acquiring these
      Securities for investment for Optionee's own account only and not with a view
      to, or for resale in connection with, any "distribution" thereof within the
      meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
      Act").

    

    (b) Optionee
      acknowledges and understands that the Securities constitute "restricted
      securities" under the Securities Act and have not been registered under the
      Securities Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption
      depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Optionee's investment
      intent as expressed herein. In this connection, Optionee understands that,
      in
      the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the statutory basis for
      such
      exemption may be unavailable if Optionee's representation was predicated solely
      upon a present intention to hold these Securities for the minimum capital gains
      period specified under tax statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an
      increase or decrease in the market price of the Securities, or for a period
      of
      one year or any other fixed period in the future. Optionee further understands
      that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently
      registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such regis-tration
      is
      available. Optionee further acknowledges and understands that the Company is
      under no obligation to register the Securities. Optionee understands that the
      certificate evidencing the Securities will be imprinted with a legend which
      prohibits the transfer of the Securities unless they are registered or such
      registration is not required in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the
      Company and any other legend required under applicable state securities
      laws.

    

    (c) Optionee
      is familiar with the provisions of Rule 701 and Rule 144, each
      promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permit limited public
      resale of "restricted securities" acquired, directly or indirectly from the
      issuer thereof, in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain
      conditions. Rule 701 provides that if the issuer qualifies under
      Rule 701 at the time of the grant of the Option to the Optionee, the
      exercise will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act. In the
      event
      the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or
      15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, ninety (90) days thereafter (or
      such longer period as any market stand-off agreement may require) the Securities
      exempt under Rule 701 may be resold, subject to the satisfaction of certain
      of the conditions specified by Rule 144, including: (1) the resale
      being made through a broker in an unsolicited "broker's transaction" or in
      transactions directly with a market maker (as said term is defined under
      the Securities Exchange Act of 1934); and, in the case of an affiliate,
      (2) the availability of certain public information about the Company, (3)
      the amount of Securities being sold during any three-month period not exceeding
      the limitations specified in Rule 144(e), and (4) the timely filing of a
      Form 144, if applicable.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    In
      the
      event that the Company does not qualify under Rule 701 at the time of grant
      of the Option, then the Securities may be resold in certain limited
      circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144, which
      requires the resale to occur not less than two years after the later of the
      date the Securities were sold by the Company or the date the Securities were
      sold by an affiliate of the Company, within the meaning of Rule 144; and,
      in the case of acquisition of the Securities by an affiliate, or by a
      non-affiliate who subsequently holds the Securities less than three years,
      the
      satisfaction of the conditions set forth in sections (1), (2), (3) and (4)
      of
      the paragraph immediately above.

    

    (d) Optionee
      further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of
      Rule 701 or 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act,
      compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be
      required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rules 144 and 701 are not
      exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed
      its
      opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than
      in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rules 144 or 701 will
      have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from
      registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and
      their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their
      own
      risk. Optionee understands that no assurances can be given that any such other
      registration exemption will be available in such event.

    

    Signature
      of Optionee:
