SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT 

          This
Securities Purchase Agreement (this “Agreement”) is dated as of February
19, 2013, between Lithium Exploration Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the
“Company”) and JDF Capital Inc., (the “Purchaser”) (referred to
collectively herein as the “Parties”). 

          WHEREAS,
the Company desires to sell and Purchaser desires to purchase a Secured
Convertible Promissory Note due, subject to the terms therein, eighteen months
from its effective date of issuance, issued by the Company to the Purchaser, in
the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Note”) and a Warrant to
purchase 3,632,433 shares of the Company’s common stock for a period of five (5)
years from the date hereof, issued by the Company to the Purchaser, in the form
of Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Warrant,” and together with the Note,
the “Securities”) as set forth below; 

          NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement,
the Company and the Purchaser agree as follows: 

ARTICLE I PURCHASE AND SALE 

          1.1      
 Purchase and Sale. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth herein, the Company agrees to sell, and the Purchaser agrees to purchase
the Note, in an aggregate principal amount of $672,000, and a Warrant to
purchase 3,632,433 shares of Company common stock with an aggregate exercise
price of $672,000. On the Effective Date, the Purchaser shall deliver to the
Company, via wire transfer, immediately available funds in the amount of
US$150,000 (the “Purchase Price”) and the Company shall deliver to the
Purchaser the Note and the Warrant, and the Company and the Purchaser shall
deliver any other documents or agreements related to this transaction,
including, but not limited to, Representations and Warranties Agreement and
Security Agreement. 

          1.2      
 Effective Date. This Agreement will become effective on March 1,
2013, and only upon occurrence of the two following events: execution of this
Agreement, the Note, and the Warrant by both the Company and the Purchaser, and
delivery of the first payment of the Purchase Price by the Purchaser to the
Company. 

          1.3      
 Additional Payments. The Note requires the Purchaser to pay
$450,000 of additional consideration to the Company by providing $150,000 on
April 1, 2013 and thereafter $100,000 the 1st day of each month
beginning on May 1st and ending on July 1st, 2013 (the
“Additional Payments”). 

ARTICLE II MISCELLANEOUS 

          2.1      
 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement may not be assigned by the
Company. The Purchaser may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement
and agreements related to this transaction. The terms and conditions of this
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the respective
successors and permitted assigns of the parties. Nothing in this Agreement,
express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party, other than the parties
hereto or their respective successors, any rights, remedies, obligations or
liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided
in this Agreement. 

          2.2      
 Reservation of Authorized Shares. As of the effective date of this
Agreement and for the remaining period during which the Note is outstanding and
the Warrant is exercisable for shares of the Company, the Company will reserve
from its authorized and unissued common stock a sufficient number of shares (at
least 10,000,000 common shares) to provide for the issuance of common stock upon
the full conversion of the Note and the full exercise of the Warrant. The
Company represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Company agrees that its issuance of
the Note and the Warrant constitutes full authority to its officers, agents and
transfer agents who are charged with the duty of executing and issuing shares to
execute and issue the necessary shares of common stock upon the conversion of
the Note and the exercise of the Warrant. No further approval or authority of
the stockholders or the Board of Directors of the Company will be required for
the issuance and sale of the Securities to be sold by the Company as
contemplated by the Agreement or for the issuance of the shares contemplated by
the Note or the shares contemplated by the Warrant. 

1

          2.3      
 Rule 144 Tacking Back and Registration Rights. Whenever the Note or
Warrant or any other document related to this transaction provides that a
conversion amount, make-whole amount, penalty, fee, liquidated damage, or any
other amount or shares (a “Tack Back Amount”) tacks back to the original date of
the Note, Warrant, or document for purposes of Rule 144 or otherwise, in the
event that such Tack Back Amount was registered or carried registration rights,
then that Tack Back Amount shall have the same registration status or
registration rights as were in effect immediately prior to the event that gave
rise to such Tack Back Amount tacking back. For example, if the Purchaser
converts a portion of the Note and receives registered shares and the Purchaser
later rescinds that conversion, the conversion amount would be returned to the
principal balance of the Note and upon any future conversion of the Note the
amount converted would be convertible into shares registered on that
registration statement. 

          2.4      
 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed
and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Arizona, without
regard to the principles of conflict of laws thereof. Any action brought by
either party against the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement shall be brought only in the state courts of Arizona or in the federal
courts located in the State of Arizona. Both parties and the individuals signing
this Agreement agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts. 

          2.5      
 Delivery of Process by Purchaser to Company. In the event of any
action or proceeding by the Purchaser against the Company, and only by Purchaser
against the Company, service of copies of summons and/or complaint and/or any
other process which may be served in any such action or proceeding may be made
by Purchaser via U.S. Mail, overnight delivery service such as FedEx or UPS,
email, fax, or process server, or by mailing or otherwise delivering a copy of
such process to the Company at its last known address or to its last known
attorney as set forth in its most recent SEC filing. 

          2.6      
 Notices. Any notice required or permitted hereunder must be in
writing and either be personally served, sent by facsimile or email
transmission, or sent by overnight courier. Notices will be deemed effectively
delivered at the time of transmission if by facsimile or email, and if by
overnight courier the business day after such notice is deposited with the
courier service for delivery. 

          2.7      
 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of this
Agreement may be effected by email. 

          2.8      
 Expenses. The Company and the Purchaser shall pay all of their own
costs and expenses incurred with respect to the negotiation, execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement. In the event any attorney is employed by
either party to this Agreement with respect to legal or equitable action,
arbitration or other proceeding brought by such party for the enforcement of
this Agreement or because of an alleged dispute, breach, default or
misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this Agreement,
the prevailing party in such proceeding will be entitled to recover from the
other party reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred, in
addition to any other relief to which the prevailing party may be entitled.

          2.9      
 No Public Announcement. Except as required by securities law, no
public announcement may be made regarding this Agreement, the Note, the Warrant,
or the Purchase Price without written permission by both the Company and the
Purchaser. 

          2.10      Severability.
If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable,
the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth
herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected,
impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially
reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same
or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision,
covenant or restriction. 

          2.11      Additional
Investment. For a period of 18 months from the Effective Date, the Purchaser
shall have a right to make an additional $1,500,000 investment on the same terms
and conditions as this initial investment.

      Consideration is provided by the Lender to the Borrower.

ARTICLE 1 PAYMENT-RELATED PROVISIONS 

          1.1
Principal Sum. The Principal Sum is $672,000 (six hundred seventy two thousand)
plus any other fees. The Consideration is $600,000 (six hundred thousand)
payable by wire (there exists a $72,000 original issue discount (the “OID”)).
The Lender shall pay $150,000 of Consideration upon closing of this Note as the
Purchase Price under the Securities Purchase Agreement Document of even date
herewith between the Borrower and the Lender. As set forth in the attached
Funding Schedule, the Lender shall pay an additional $450,000 of Consideration
to the Borrower in such amounts and times as specified in the Funding
Schedule.

          1.2
Default. In the event of any Event of Default, as defined in the Default
Document between the Borrower and the Holder, the outstanding principal amount
of this Note, plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages, fees and
other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall
become, at the Holder’s election, immediately due and payable in cash at the
Mandatory Default Amount. Commencing five (5) days after the occurrence of any
Event of Default that results in the eventual acceleration of this Note, the
interest rate on this Note shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser
of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. In
connection with such acceleration described herein, the Holder need not provide,
and the Borrower hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice
of any kind, and the Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace
period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other
remedies available to it under applicable law. Such acceleration may be
rescinded and annulled by Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder and the
Holder shall have all rights as a holder of the note until such time, if any, as
the Holder receives full payment pursuant to this Section 1.2. No such
rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair
any right consequent thereon. The Mandatory Default Amount means the greater of
(i) the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus all accrued and unpaid
interest, liquidated damages, fees and other amounts hereon, divided by the
Conversion Price on the date the Mandatory Default Amount is either demanded or
paid in full, whichever has a lower Conversion Price, multiplied by the VWAP on
the date the Mandatory Default Amount is either demanded or paid in full,
whichever has a higher VWAP, or (ii) 130% of the outstanding principal amount of
this Note, plus 100% of accrued and unpaid interest, liquidated damages, fees
and other amounts hereon. 

ARTICLE 2 CONVERSION RIGHTS 

          The
Holder will have the right to convert the Principal Sum (including OID,
interest, and other fees) under this Note into Shares of the Borrower's Common
Stock as set forth below. 

          2.1
Conversion Rights and Cashless Exercise. The Holder will have the right at its
election from and after the Effective Date, and then at any time, to convert all
or part of the outstanding and unpaid Principal Sum and accrued interest into
shares of fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock of Lithium
Exploration Group, Inc. (as such stock exists on the date of issuance of this
Note, or any shares of capital stock of Lithium Exploration Group, Inc. into
which such stock is hereafter changed or reclassified, the "Common Stock") as
per the Conversion Formula set forth in Section 2.2. Any such conversion shall
be cashless, and shall not require further payment from Holder. Unless otherwise
agreed in writing by both the Borrower and the Holder, at no time will the
Holder convert any amount of the Note into common stock that would result in the Holder owning more than
4.99% of the common stock outstanding of Lithium Exploration Group, Inc., as
calculated in accordance with sections 13(d) and 13(g) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act’) Shares from any such
conversion will be delivered to Holder (in any name directed by Holder) by
2:30pm EST within 3 (three) business days of conversion notice delivery (see
3.1) by “DWAC/FAST” electronic transfer. 

          2.2.
Conversion Formula. The number of shares issued through conversion is the
conversion amount divided by the conversion price, as illustrated below. The
Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount(s)
converted and the date of such conversion(s). If no objection is delivered from
Borrower to Holder regarding any variable or calculation of the conversion
notice within 24 (twenty-four) hours of delivery of the conversion notice, the
Borrower shall have been thereafter deemed to have irrevocably confirmed and
irrevocably ratified such Notice of Conversion and waive any objection thereto.
The Company acknowledges and agrees that, absent a duly delivered objection
notice as required above, the Holder shall materially rely on the confirmation
and ratification of the conversion price and, notwithstanding subsequent
information to the contrary that such computation was made in error, such deemed
conversion price shall thereafter be the conversion price for purposes of such
conversion. 

# Shares = Conversion
Amount 

                       
  Conversion Price 

          2.5
Reservation of Shares. As of the issuance date of this Note and for the
remaining period during which the conversion right exists, the Borrower will
reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of
shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of
this Note. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly
and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Borrower agrees that its
issuance of this Note constitutes full authority to its officers, agents and
transfer agents who are charged with the duty of executing and issuing shares to
execute and issue the necessary shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of
this Note.

          2.6.
Delivery of Conversion Shares. Shares from any such conversion will be delivered
to Holder by 2:30pm EST within 3 (three) business days of conversion notice
delivery (see 3.1) by “DWAC/FAST” electronic transfer (such date, the “Share
Delivery Date”). For example, if Holder delivers a conversion notice to Borrower
at 5:15 pm eastern time on Monday January 1st, Borrower’s transfer
agent must deliver shares to Holder’s broker via “DWAC/FAST” electronic transfer
by no later than 2:30 pm eastern time on Thursday January 4th. If those shares
are not delivered in accordance with this timeframe stated in this Section 2.6,
Holder, at any time prior to selling those shares (in whole or in part), may
rescind that particular conversion (in whole or in part) and have the conversion
amount (in whole or in part) returned to the note balance with the conversion
shares (in whole or in part) returned to the Borrower (under Holder and
Borrower’s expectation that any returned conversion amounts will tack back to
the original date of the note). The Company will make its best efforts to
deliver shares to Holder same day / next day. 

2.6.1 Nothing herein shall limit a
Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder (including
election to pursue its rights under this Section 2.6 and subsections), at law or
in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief
with respect to the Borrower’s failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock
upon conversion of the Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof. 

2.6.2 Conversion Delay Penalties.
Holder may assess, at its election, penalties or liquidated damages (both
referred to herein as “penalties”) as follows. 

2.6.2. A. For each conversion,
Borrower agrees to deliver share issuance instructions to its transfer agent
same day or next day. In the event that the share issuance instructions are not
delivered to the Borrower’s transfer agent by the next day, a penalty of $2,000
per day will be assessed for each day until share issuance instructions are
delivered to the transfer agent ($2,000 per day inclusive of the day of
conversion); and such penalty will be added to the principal balance of the Note
(under Holder and Borrower’s expectation that any penalty amounts will tack back
to the original date of the note). 

2.6.2. B. For each conversion, in the
event that shares are not delivered by the third business day (inclusive of the
day of conversion), a penalty of $2,000 per day will be assessed for each day
after the third business day (inclusive of the day of the conversion) until
share delivery is made; and such penalty will be added to the principal balance
of the Note (under Holder and Borrower’s expectation that any penalty amounts
will tack back to the original date of the note). Borrower will not be
subjected to any penalties once its transfer agent processes the shares to the
DWAC system. 

2.6.3 If failure to deliver Conversion
Shares occurs as follows, Holder may elect to enforce one or more of these
remedies at its sole election. 

2.6.3. A. In addition to any other
rights available to the Holder, if the Borrower fails to cause its transfer
agent to transmit to the Holder the shares on or before the Share Delivery Date,
and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an
open market transaction or otherwise) or if the Holder’s brokerage firm
otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale
by the Holder of the shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such
conversion (a “Buy-In”), then the Borrower shall (A) pay in cash to the
Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price
(including brokerage commissions and other fees, if any) for the shares of
Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the
number of Shares that the Borrower was required to deliver to the Holder in
connection with the conversion at issue times (2) the price at which the sell
order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the
option of the Holder, either (x) reinstate the portion of the Note and
equivalent number of shares for which such conversion was not honored (in which
case such conversion shall be deemed rescinded), (y) deliver to the Holder the
number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Borrower
timely complied with its conversion and delivery obligations hereunder, or (z)
pay in cash to the Holder the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of
Shares that the Borrower was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the
conversion at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to
such purchase obligation was executed. The Holder shall provide the Borrower
written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the
Buy-In and, upon request of the Borrower, evidence of the amount of such loss.

2.6.3. B. If the Borrower fails for
any reason to deliver to the Holder the Shares by DWAC/FAST electronic transfer
(such as by delivering a physical stock certificate) and if the Holder incurs a
Market Price Loss, then at any time subsequent to incurring the loss the Holder
may provide the Borrower written notice indicating the amounts payable to the
Holder in respect of the Market Price Loss and the Borrower must make the Holder
whole by either of the following options at Holder’s election: 

Market Price Loss = [(VWAP on the day
of conversion) x (Number of shares receivable from the conversion)] – [(Sales
price realized by Holder) x (Number of shares receivable from the conversion)].

Option A – Pay Market Price Loss in
Cash. The Borrower must pay the Market Price Loss by cash payment, and any such
cash payment must be made by the third business day from the time of the
Holder’s written notice to the Borrower. 

Option B – Add Market Price Loss to
Principal Sum. The Borrower must pay the Market Price Loss by adding the Market
Price Loss to the balance of the Principal Sum (under Holder’s and the
Borrower’s expectation that any Market Price Loss amounts will tack back to the
original date of issue of this Note). 

2.6.3. C. If the Borrower fails for
any reason to deliver to the Holder the Shares within 2 (two) business days of
the Share Delivery Date and if the Holder incurs a Failure to Deliver Loss, then
at any time subsequent to incurring the loss the Holder may provide the Borrower
written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the
Failure to Deliver Loss and the Borrower must make the Holder whole as follows:

Failure to Deliver Loss = [(High trade
price at any time on or after the day of conversion) x (Number of shares
receivable from the conversion)]. 

The Borrower must pay the Failure to
Deliver Loss by cash payment, and any such cash payment must be made by the
third business day from the time of the Holder’s written notice to the Borrower.

          2.7.
This section 2.7 intentionally left blank. 

ARTICLE 3 MISCELLANEOUS

          3.1.
Notices. Any notice required or permitted hereunder must be in writing and
either personally served, sent by facsimile or email transmission, or sent by
overnight courier. Notices will be deemed effectively delivered at the time of
transmission if by facsimile or email, and if by overnight courier the business day after such notice is
deposited with the courier service for delivery. 

          3.2
Subsequent Equity Sales or Agreements. The Borrower shall provide the Holder,
whenever the Holder requests at any time while this Note is outstanding, a
schedule of all issuances of Common Stock or any debt, preferred stock, right,
option, warrant or other instrument that is convertible into or exercisable or
exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common
Stock (a “Common Stock Equivalent”) since the date of issuance of this Note,
including the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange
price, conversion price, exercise price and other pricing terms. The term
issuances shall also include all agreements to issue, or prospectively issue
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, regardless of whether the issuance
contemplated by such agreement is consummated. The Borrower shall notify the
Holder in writing of any issuances within twenty-four (24) hours of such
issuance. 

          3.3.
Amendment Provision. The term "Note" and all reference thereto, as used
throughout this instrument, means this instrument as originally executed, or if
later amended or supplemented, then as so amended or supplemented.

          3.4.
Assignability. The Borrower may not assign this Note. This Note will be binding
upon the Borrower and its successors, and will inure to the benefit of the
Holder and its successors and assigns, and may be assigned by the Holder to
anyone of its choosing without Borrower’s approval. 

          3.5.
Governing Law. This Note will be governed by, and construed and enforced in
accordance with, the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to the
conflict of laws principles thereof. Any action brought by either party against
the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be
brought only in the state courts of Florida or in the federal courts located in
Miami-Dade County, in the State of Florida. Both parties and the individuals
signing this Agreement agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts. 

          3.6.
Delivery of Process by Holder To Borrower. In the event of any action or
proceeding by Holder against Borrower, and only by Holder against Borrower,
service of copies of summons and/or complaint and/or any other process which may
be served in any such action or proceeding may be made by Holder via U.S. Mail,
overnight delivery service such as FedEx or UPS, email, fax, or process server,
or by mailing or otherwise delivering a copy of such process to the Borrower at
its last known address or to its last known attorney set forth in its most
recent SEC filing. 

          3.7.
No Rights as Stockholder Until Conversion. This Note does not entitle the Holder
to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company
prior to the conversion hereof as set forth in Section 2.1. So long as this Note
is unconverted, this Note carries no voting rights and does not convey to the
Holder any “control” over the Company, as such term may be interpreted by the
SEC under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, regardless of whether this
Note is currently convertible. 

          3.8.
Maximum Payments. Nothing contained herein may be deemed to establish or require
the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum
permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest required
to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum permitted by such law,
any payments in excess of such maximum will be credited against amounts owed by
the Borrower to the Holder and thus refunded to the Borrower.

          3.9.
Attorney Fees. In the event any attorney is employed by either party to this
Note with regard to any legal or equitable action, arbitration or other
proceeding brought by such party for the enforcement of this Note or because of
an alleged dispute, breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with any
of the provisions of this Note, the prevailing party in such proceeding will be
entitled to recover from the other party reasonable attorneys' fees and other
costs and expenses incurred, in addition to any other relief to which the
prevailing party may be entitled. 

          3.10.
Nonwaiver. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right
hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or
otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies. 

          3.11.
No Public Announcement. Except as required by securities law, no public
announcement may be made regarding this Note, payments, or conversions without
written permission by both Borrower and Holder. 

          3.12.
Opinion of Counsel. In the event that an opinion of counsel is needed for any
matter related to this Note, Holder has the right to have any such opinion
provided by its counsel. Holder also has the right to have any such opinion
provided by Borrower’s counsel. 

          3.13.
Director’s Resolution. Once effective, Borrower will execute and deliver to
Holder a copy of a Board of Director’s resolution resolving that this note is
validly issued, paid, and effective. 

          3.14.
No Shorting. Holder agrees that so long as any Note from Borrower to Holder
remains outstanding, Holder will not enter into or effect any “short sales” of
the common stock or hedging transaction which establishes a net short position
with respect to the common stock of Lithium Exploration Group, Inc. Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that upon submission of conversion notice as set forth
in Section 3.1 (up to the amount of cash paid in under the Note), Holder
immediately owns the common shares described in the conversion notice and any
sale of those shares issuable under such conversion notice would not be
considered short sales.

COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT 

LITHIUM EXPLORATION GROUP, INC. 

	Warrant Shares: 3,632,433 	Initial Issue Date: February 19, 2013 
	Aggregate Exercise Amount: $672,000 	  

                
     THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (the
“Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, JDF Capital Inc., or its
assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the
limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on
or after the date hereof (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and on or prior to
the close of business on the five (5) year anniversary of the Initial Exercise
Date (as subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Termination Date”), to
subscribe for and purchase from Lithium Exploration Group, Inc., a Nevada
corporation (the “Company”), up to 3,632,433 shares (as subject to
adjustment herein, the “Warrant Shares”) of common stock of the
Company (the “Common Stock”). The purchase price of one share of Common
Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in
Section 1.2.

ARTICLE 1 EXERCISE RIGHTS 

          The
Holder will have the right to exercise this Warrant to purchase shares of Common
Stock as set forth below. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities Purchase
Agreement Document dated February ____, 2013 between the Company and the Holder
(the “Agreement”). 

          1.1      
 Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by
this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, from and after the Initial
Exercise Date, and then at any time, by delivery to the Company (or such other
office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the
registered Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the
Company) of a duly executed facsimile or emailed copy of the Notice of Exercise
form annexed hereto. Within three (3) business days following the date of
exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for
the shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or
check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure
specified in Section 1.3 below is specified in the applicable Notice of
Exercise. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion
of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect
of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an
amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder
and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares
purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any
objection to any Notice of Exercise form within 24 hours of receipt of such
notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge
and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the
purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant
Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the
amount stated on the face hereof. 

          1.2      
 Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock under
this Warrant shall be $0.185 per share, subject to adjustment hereunder (the
“Exercise Price”). The aggregate exercise price is $672,000. 

1 

          1.3        Cashless Exercise. If at any time after the earlier of (i) the six (6)
month anniversary of the date of the Agreement and (ii) the completion of the
then-applicable holding period required by Rule 144, or any successor provision
then in effect, there is no effective Registration Statement registering, or no
current prospectus available for, the resale of the Warrant Shares by the
Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder
shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient
obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where: 

	 	(A) = 	
      the VWAP on the trading day immediately preceding the
      date on which Holder elects to exercise this Warrant by means of a
      “cashless exercise,” as set forth in the applicable Notice of Exercise;
      

	 	 	
       

	 	(B) =	
      the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted
      hereunder; and 

	 	 	
       

	 	(X) = 	
      the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon
      exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if
      such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless
      exercise. 

          1.4      
 Delivery of Warrant Shares. Warrant Shares purchased hereunder will
be delivered to Holder by 2:30 pm EST within two (2) business days of Notice of
Exercise by “DWAC/FAST” electronic transfer (such date, the “Warrant Share
Delivery Date”). For example, if Holder delivers a Notice of Exercise to the
Company at 5:15 pm eastern time on Monday January 1st, the Company’s
transfer agent must deliver shares to Holder’s broker via “DWAC/FAST” electronic
transfer by no later than 2:30 pm eastern time on Wednesday January
3rd. The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and
Holder or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to
have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date
of delivery of the Notice of Exercise. Holder may assess penalties or liquidated
damages (both referred to herein as “penalties”) as follows. For each exercise,
in the event that shares are not delivered by the third business day (inclusive
of the day of exercise), the Company shall pay the Holder in cash a penalty of
$2,000 per day for each day after the third business day (inclusive of the day
of exercise) until share delivery is made. The Company will not be subject to
any penalties once its transfer agent correctly processes the shares to the DWAC
system. The Company will make its best efforts to deliver the Warrant Shares
to the Holder the same day or next day. 

          1.5      
 Delivery of Warrant. The Holder shall not be required to physically
surrender this Warrant to the Company. If the Holder has purchased all of the
Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full,
this Warrant shall automatically be cancelled without the need to surrender the
Warrant to the Company for cancellation. If this Warrant shall have been
exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of Holder and upon
surrender of this Warrant, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares,
deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to
purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new
Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant and, for
purposes of Rule 144, shall tack back to the original date of this Warrant. 

          1.6       
Warrant Exercise Rescission Rights. For any reason in Holder’s sole
discretion, including if the Warrant Shares are not delivered by DWAC/FAST
electronic transfer or in accordance with the timeframe stated in Section 1.4,
or for any other reason, Holder may, at any time prior to selling those Warrant
Shares rescind such exercise, in whole or in part, in which case the Company
must, within three (3) days of receipt of notice from the Holder, repay to the
Holder the portion of the exercise price so rescinded and reinstate the portion
of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which the exercise
was rescinded and, for purposes of Rule 144, such reinstated portion of the
Warrant and the Warrant Shares shall tack back to the original date of this
Warrant. If Warrant Shares were issued to Holder prior to Holder’s rescission
notice, upon return of payment from the Company, Holder will, within three (3)
days of receipt of payment, commence procedures to return the Warrant Shares to
the Company. 

          1.7      
 Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon
Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the
Company fails to cause its transfer agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant
Shares on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the
Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or
otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common
Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares
which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”),
then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by
which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and
other fees, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the
amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company
was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue
times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such
purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either
(x) reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares
for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be
deemed rescinded), (y) deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common
Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its
exercise and delivery obligations hereunder, or (z) pay in cash to the Holder
the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the
Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at
issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase
obligation was executed. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice
indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon
request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. 

2 

          1.8      
 Make-Whole for Market Loss after Exercise. At the Holder’s
election, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the
Warrant Shares by DWAC/FAST electronic transfer (such as by delivering a
physical certificate) and if the Holder incurs a Market Price Loss, then at any
time subsequent to incurring the loss the Holder may provide the Company written
notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Market
Price Loss and the Company must make the Holder whole as follows: 

Market Price Loss = [(High trade price
on the day of exercise) x (Number of Warrant Shares)] – [(Sales price realized
by Holder) x (Number of Warrant Shares)] 

The Company must pay the Market Price
Loss by cash payment, and any such cash payment must be made by the third
business day from the time of the Holder’s written notice to the Company. 

          1.9      
 Make-Whole for Failure to Deliver Loss. At the Holder’s election,
if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares
by the Warrant Share Delivery Date and if the Holder incurs a Failure to Deliver
Loss, then at any time the Holder may provide the Company written notice
indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Failure to
Deliver Loss and the Company must make the Holder whole as follows: 

Failure to Deliver Loss = [(High trade
price at any time on or after the day of exercise) x (Number of Warrant Shares)]

The Company must pay the Failure to
Deliver Loss by cash payment, and any such cash payment must be made by the
third business day from the time of the Holder’s written notice to the Company.

          1.10     
Choice of Remedies. Nothing herein, including, but not limited to,
Holder’s electing to pursue its rights under Sections 1.8 or 1.9 of this
Warrant, shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to
it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of
specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s
failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as
required pursuant to the terms hereof. 

          1.11     
Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made
without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental
expense in respect of the issuance of such shares, all of which taxes and
expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued
in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the
Holder. The Company shall pay all transfer agent fees required for same-day
processing of any Notice of Exercise. 

          1.12      Holder’s
Exercise Limitations. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by both the Company
and the Holder, at no time will the Holder exercise any amount of this Warrant
to purchase Common Stock that would result in the Holder owning more than 4.99%
of the Common Stock outstanding of the Company (the “Beneficial
Ownership Limitation”). Upon the written or oral request of Holder, the
Company shall within twenty-four (24) hours confirm orally and in writing to the
Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. 

3 

ARTICLE 2 ADJUSTMENTS 

          2.1      
 Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this
Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a
distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity
or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for
avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the
Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of
reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of
shares or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any
shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price
shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding
immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the
number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately
adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain
unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall become
effective immediately after the record date for the determination of
stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become
effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision,
combination or re-classification. 

          2.2      
 Subsequent Equity Sales. If the Company or any Subsidiary thereof,
as applicable, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall sell or
grant any option to purchase, or sell or grant any right to reprice, or
otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option
to purchase or other disposition) any Common Stock or any security entitling the
holder thereof (including sales or grants to the Holder) to acquire Common
Stock, including, without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, right, option,
warrant or other instrument that is convertible into or exercisable or
exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common
Stock (a “Common Stock Equivalent”), at an effective price per share less
than the Exercise Price then in effect (such lower price, the “Base Share
Price” and such issuances collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (it
being understood and agreed that if the holder of the Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase
price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange
prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are
issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common
Stock at an effective price per share that is less than the Exercise Price, such
issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Exercise Price on
such date of the Dilutive Issuance at such effective price regardless of whether
such holder has received or ever receives shares at such effective price), then
simultaneously with the consummation of each Dilutive Issuance the Exercise
Price shall be reduced and only reduced to equal the Base Share Price and
consequently the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be increased
such that the Aggregate Exercise Amount hereunder, after taking into account the
decrease in the Exercise Price, shall be equal to the Aggregate Exercise Amount
prior to such adjustment. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common
Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued. The Company shall notify the
Holder, in writing, no later than the business day following the issuance or
deemed issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this
Section 2.2, indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable
reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such
notice, the “Dilutive Issuance Notice”). In addition, the Company
shall provide the Holder, whenever the Holder requests at any time while this
Warrant is outstanding, a schedule of all issuances of Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalents since the date of the Agreement, including the applicable
issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price,
exercise price and other pricing terms. The term issuances shall also include
all agreements to issue, or prospectively issue Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents, regardless of whether the issuance contemplated by such agreement
is consummated. The Company shall notify the Holder in writing of any issuances
within twenty-four (24) hours of such issuance. For purposes of clarification,
whether or not the Company provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this
Section 2.2, upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, the Holder is
entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares based upon the Base Share Price
regardless of whether the Holder accurately refers to the Base Share Price in
the Notice of Exercise. If the Company enters into a Variable Rate Transaction,
the Company shall be deemed to have issued Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents at the lowest possible conversion or exercise price at which such
securities may be converted or exercised. “Variable Rate
Transaction” means a transaction in which the Company (i) issues or sells
any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or
exercisable for, or include the right to receive, additional shares of Common
Stock either (A) at a conversion price, exercise price or exchange rate or other
price that is based upon, and/or varies with, the trading prices of or
quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance
of such debt or equity securities or (B) with a conversion, exercise or
exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the
initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of
specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of
the Company or the market for the Common Stock or (ii) enters into any
agreement, including, but not limited to, an equity line of credit, whereby the
Company may sell securities at a future determined price. 

4 

          2.3       
Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is
outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to the
Holder) evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash
dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security other
than the Common Stock, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be
adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the
record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such
distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP determined
as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such
VWAP on such record date less the then per share fair market value at such
record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness or rights
or warrants so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the Common
Stock as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In either case the
adjustments shall be described in a statement provided to the Holder of the
portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such
subscription rights applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment
shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective
immediately after the record date mentioned above. 

          2.4     
  Notice to Holder. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant
to any provision of this Article 2, the Company shall promptly notify the Holder
(by written notice) setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and
any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a
brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. 

ARTICLE 3 COMPANY COVENANTS 

          3.1      
 Reservation of Shares. As of the issuance date of this Warrant and
for the remaining period during which the Warrant is exercisable, the Company
will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number
of shares to provide for the issuance of Warrant Shares upon the full exercise
of this Warrant. The Company represents that upon issuance, such Warrant Shares
will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Company
agrees that its issuance of this Warrant constitutes full authority to its
officers, agents and transfer agents who are charged with the duty of executing
and issuing shares to execute and issue the necessary Warrant Shares upon the
exercise of this Warrant. No further approval or authority of the stockholders
of the Board of Directors of the Company is required for the issuance of the
Warrant Shares. 

          3.2      
 No Adverse Actions. Except and to the extent as waived or consented
to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without
limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any
reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or
sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the
observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all
times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the
taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the
rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the
par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such
exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such
action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly
and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise
of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such
authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having
jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its
obligations under this Warrant. 

ARTICLE 4 MISCELLANEOUS 

          4.1      
 Representation by the Holder. The Holder, by the acceptance hereof,
represents and warrants that it is acquiring this Warrant and, upon any exercise
hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for its own
account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Warrant
Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable
state securities law, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the
Securities Act. 

5 

          4.2       
Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities
laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any
registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, by a written
assignment of this Warrant duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney.
If necessary to obtain a new warrant for any assignee, the Company, upon
surrender of this Warrant, shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants
in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination
or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to
the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so
assigned, and such new Warrants, for purposes of Rule 144, shall tack back to
the original date of this Warrant. The Warrant, if properly assigned in
accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of
Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued. 

          4.3      
 Assignability. The Company may not assign this Warrant. This
Warrant will be binding upon the Company and its successors, and will inure to
the benefit of the Holder and its successors and assigns, and may be assigned by
the Holder to anyone of its choosing without the Company’s approval. 

          4.4      
 Notices. Any notice required or permitted hereunder must be in
writing and either personally served, sent by facsimile or email transmission,
or sent by overnight courier. Notices will be deemed effectively delivered at
the time of transmission if by facsimile or email, and if by overnight courier
the business day after such notice is deposited with the courier service for
delivery. 

          4.5      
 Governing Law. This Warrant will be governed by, and construed and
enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to
the conflict of laws principles thereof. Any action brought by either party
against the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this Warrant shall
be brought only in the state courts of Arizona or in the federal courts located
in the State of Arizona. Both parties and the individuals signing this Agreement
agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts. 

          4.6      
 Delivery of Process by Holder to the Company. In the event of any
action or proceeding by Holder against the Company, and only by Holder against
the Company, service of copies of summons and/or complaint and/or any other
process which may be served in any such action or proceeding may be made by
Holder via U.S. Mail, overnight delivery service such as FedEx or UPS, email,
fax, or process server, or by mailing or otherwise delivering a copy of such
process to the Company at its last known address or to its last known attorney
set forth in its most recent SEC filing. 

          4.7       
No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle
the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of
the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 1.1. So long as
this Warrant is unexercised, this Warrant carries no voting rights and does not
convey to the Holder any “control” over the Company, as such term may be
interpreted by the SEC under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, regardless
of whether the price of the Company’s Common Stock exceeds the Exercise Price.

          4.8       
Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any
affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant
Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder,
shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any
Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is
asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. 

          4.9      
 Attorney Fees. In the event any attorney is employed by either
party to this Warrant with regard to any legal or equitable action, arbitration
or other proceeding brought by such party for the enforcement of this Warrant or
because of an alleged dispute, breach, default or misrepresentation in
connection with any of the provisions of this Warrant, the prevailing party in
such proceeding will be entitled to recover from the other party reasonable
attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred, in addition to any other
relief to which the prevailing party may be entitled. 

          4.10      Opinion
of Counsel. In the event that an opinion of counsel is needed for any matter
related to this Warrant, Holder has the right to have any such opinion provided
by its counsel. Holder also has the right to have any such opinion provided by
the Company’s counsel. 

          4.11     
Nonwaiver. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any
right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or
otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies. 

6 

          4.12      Amendment
Provision. The term “Warrant” and all references thereto, as used throughout
this instrument, means this instrument as originally executed, or if later
amended or supplemented, then as so amended or supplemented. 

          4.13     
No Shorting. Holder agrees that so long as this Warrant remains
unexercised in whole or in part, Holder will not enter into or effect any “short
sale” of the common stock or hedging transaction which establishes a net short
position with respect to the common stock of the Company. The Company
acknowledges and agrees that as of the date of delivery to the Company of a
fully and accurately completed Notice of Exercise, Holder immediately owns the
common shares described in the Notice of Exercise and any sale of those shares
issuable under such Notice of Exercise would not be considered short sales.

          IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant to be executed by its
officer thereunto duly authorized as of the date first above indicated.

/s/ John

John Fierro, President 
JDF Capital Inc. 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES AGREEMENT 

          These
Representations and Warranties apply to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the
“Agreement”) dated as of February 19, 2013, between Lithium Exploration
Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) and JDF Capital Inc.,
(the “Purchaser”). All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein
shall have the meanings given such terms in the Agreement. 

The Company represents and warrants to the Purchaser, as of the
date of the Agreement (unless otherwise stated), as follows: 

          1)      
 Authorized Capital Stock. The Company has 500,000,000 authorized
shares of common stock and 100,000,000 authorized preferred shares. There are
42,398,213 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and no preferred shares
outstanding. The Company has options to purchase 2,000,000 common shares
outstanding. The Company has reserved for other parties from its authorized
shares of common stock 2,000,000 shares in respect of options and 15,000,000 for
its convertible debentures. As set forth above, the total number of authorized
shares reserved for other parties is 17,000,000, there are 40,398,213 shares
issued and outstanding, and there are therefore 442,601,787 authorized shares
that are available for issuance or reservation, and the Company will reserve a
sufficient number of shares for Purchaser as set forth in Section 2.2 of the
Agreement. Except for customary adjustments as a result of stock dividends,
stock splits, combinations of shares, reorganizations, recapitalizations,
reclassifications or other similar events, there are no anti-dilution or price
adjustment provisions contained in any security (other than the Note and the
Warrant) issued by the Company (or in any agreement providing rights to security
holders). The issuance and sale of the Note and the Warrant pursuant to the
Agreement will not give rise to any preemptive rights or rights of first
refusal, co-sale rights or any other similar rights on behalf of any person or
result in the triggering of any anti-dilution or other similar rights. 

          2)      
 No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by the
Company of the Agreement, the Note, and the Warrant, the issuance and sale of
the Securities, and the consummation by the Company of the transactions
contemplated thereby do not and will not: (i) conflict with or violate any
provision of the Company’s or any of its subsidiaries’ certificate or articles
of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational or charter documents, (ii)
conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of
time or both would become a default) under, result in the creation of any lien
upon any of the properties or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries,
or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or
cancellation (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) of, any agreement,
credit facility, debt or other instrument (evidencing a Company or subsidiary
debt or otherwise) or other understanding to which the Company or any of its
subsidiaries is a party or by which any property or asset of the Company or any
of its subsidiaries is bound or affected, except where the Company has obtained
a waiver specifically permitting the Company to enter into the Agreement and
such waiver is attached hereto as Exhibit A, or (iii) conflict with or result in
a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction, decree or
other restriction of any court or governmental authority to which the Company or
any subsidiary is subject (including federal and state securities laws and
regulations), or by which any property or asset of the Company or a subsidiary
is bound or affected. 

          3)      
 No Inconsistent Agreements. Neither the Company nor any of its
subsidiaries has entered into, as of the date hereof, nor shall the Company or
any of its subsidiaries, on or after the date of the Agreement, enter into any
agreement with respect to its securities that would have the effect of impairing
the rights granted to the Purchaser in the Agreement, the Note, or the Warrant
or that otherwise conflicts with the provisions of the Agreement, the Note, or
the Warrant. 

          4)       
DWAC/DTC. The Company is currently able to electronically transfer shares
via DWAC/FAST electronic transfer system. The shares of common stock of the
Company are DTC eligible. 

          5)     
 Transfer Agent. The name and address of the Company’s transfer
agent is VStock Transfer, LLC, 77 Spruce Street, Suite 201, Cedarhurst, NY
11516, email: info@vstocktransfer.com, phone: 212-828-8436. The Company will not
issue stop transfer instructions to the transfer agent regarding any shares of
common stock of the Company issued to the Purchaser. 

1 

          6)   
    Other Registration Rights. No person has any right to
cause the Company to effect the registration under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, of any securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. 

          7)   
    This Section 7 intentionally left blank. 

          8)  
     SEC Documents. The Company has timely filed all
reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed
by it with the SEC for the last two years pursuant to the reporting requirements
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)
(the “SEC Documents”). As of their respective filing dates, the SEC
Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder
applicable to the SEC Documents. As of their respective filing dates, the SEC
Documents, taken as a whole, did not contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading. 

          9)   
    No Material Change. Since the date of the last Form
10-Q filed by the Company with the SEC on February 19, 2013, (i) neither the
Company nor any of its subsidiaries has incurred any material liabilities or
obligations, indirect, or contingent, or entered into any material verbal or
written agreement or other transaction which is not in the ordinary course of
business or which could reasonably be expected to result in a material reduction
in the future earnings of the Company; (ii) neither the Company nor any of its
subsidiaries has altered its method of accounting; (iii) neither the Company nor
any of its subsidiaries has sustained any material loss or interference with its
respective businesses or properties from fire, flood, windstorm, accident or
other calamity not covered by insurance; (iv) the Company has not paid or
declared any dividends or other distributions with respect to its capital stock;
(v) there has not been any change in the capital stock of the Company, other
than the sale of the Securities under the Agreement and shares or options issued
pursuant to employee equity incentive plans or purchase plans approved by the
Company’s Board of Directors, or indebtedness material to the Company (other
than in the ordinary course of business); and (vi) there has not been any
material adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise), assets,
properties, business, prospects or results of operations of the Company. The
Company does not have pending before the SEC any request for confidential
treatment of information.

          10)      Transfer
Taxes. All stock transfer fees or other taxes (other than income taxes)
which are required to be paid in connection with the sale and transfer of the
Securities or the conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants will be,
or, when the liability arises, will have been, fully paid or provided for by the
Company and all laws imposing such fees and/or taxes will be or will have been
fully complied with. 

          11)      Other
Financings. Except as disclosed in the SEC documents, the Company has not
engaged in any financing transaction in which the Company has issued securities,
and does not currently have outstanding any securities, with either (i) a
conversion price more favorable to the holder than the conversion price set
forth in the Note, or (ii) an exercise price more favorable to the holder than
the exercise price set forth in the Warrant. 

          12)      Use
of proceeds. The Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the
Securities hereunder for working capital, capital expenditures, and operating
expenses. 

          13)     
Litigation. There is no action, suit, inquiry, notice of violation,
default, proceeding or investigation existing, pending or, to the knowledge of
the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company, any of its
subsidiaries or any of their respective properties before or by any court,
arbitrator, governmental or administrative agency or regulatory authority
(federal, state, county, local or foreign) (collectively, an “Action”).
Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries, nor any director or officer
thereof, is or has been the subject of any Action involving a claim of violation
of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of
fiduciary duty. 

          14)     
Law. There has not been, and to the knowledge of the Company, there is
not pending or contemplated, any inquiry or investigation by the SEC, any state
securities regulator, the U.S. Department of Justice, or any state, Federal or
non-US regulatory authority targeted at the Company or any current or former
director or officer of the Company. The SEC has not issued any stop order or
other order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement filed by
the Company or any of its subsidiaries under the Exchange Act or the Securities
Act. 

2 

          15)     
No Bankruptcy. The Company has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances
that lead it to believe that it will file for reorganization or liquidation
under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction within one year
from the effective date of the Agreement. 

          16)     
No Reverse Split. From the date hereof until the twelve (12) month
anniversary of the effective date of the Agreement, the Company shall not
undertake a reverse or forward stock split or reclassification of the Company’s
common stock without the prior written consent of the Purchaser. 

          17)     
Conversion and Exercise. By entering into the Agreement, the Company
agrees to take responsibility and accountability for the conversion terms of the
Note and the exercise terms of the Warrant, and to honor the conversion and
exercise terms as set forth in the Note and the Warrant. 

          18)     
Participation in Future Financings. From the date hereof until the twelve
(12) month anniversary of the effective date of the Agreement, upon any issuance
by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any security for cash consideration
(a “Subsequent Financing”), the Purchaser shall have the right to participate in
the Subsequent Financing in a matching amount up to 100% of the Subsequent
Financing on the same terms, conditions and price as provided for in the
Subsequent Financing.

          19)     
Terms of Future Financings. So long as any Note or Warrant is
outstanding, upon any issuance by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any
security with any term more favorable to the holder of such security or with a
term in favor of the holder of such security that was not similarly provided to
the Purchaser in the Agreement or the related transaction documents, then the
Company shall notify the Purchaser of such additional or more favorable term and
such term, at Purchaser’s option, shall become a part of the transaction
documents with the Purchaser. The types of terms contained in another security
that may be more favorable to the holder of such security include, but are not
limited to, terms addressing conversion discounts, conversion lookback periods,
actual conversion price, interest rates, original issue discounts, and warrant
coverage. 

          20)     
Subsequent Equity Sales or Agreements. The Company shall provide the
Purchaser, whenever the Purchaser requests at any time while the Note or Warrant
is outstanding, a schedule of all issuances of Common Stock or any debt,
preferred stock, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is convertible
into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder
thereof to receive, Common Stock (a “Common Stock Equivalent”) since the date of
the Agreement, including the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset
price, exchange price, conversion price, exercise price and other pricing terms.
The term issuances shall also include all agreements to issue, or prospectively
issue Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, regardless of whether the
issuance contemplated by such agreement is consummated. The Company shall notify
the Purchaser in writing of any issuances within twenty-four (24) hours of such
issuance.

W I T N E S S
E T H:

                              WHEREAS,
the Company and the Pledgee are parties to that certain Securities Purchase

debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $672,000.

                              WHEREAS,
as a material inducement to the Pledgee to enter into the Purchase Agreement,
the Pledgee has required and the Pledgor has agreed (i) to unconditionally
guarantee the timely and full satisfaction of all obligations of the Company,
whether matured or unmatured, now or hereafter existing or created and becoming
due and payable (the “Obligations”) to the Pledgee, their successors,
endorsees, transferees or assigns under the Transaction Documents (as defined in
the Purchase Agreement) and under those certain Debentures in the aggregate
amount of $672,000, to the extent of the Collateral (as defined in Section 5
hereof), and (ii) to grant to the Pledgee, their successors, endorsees,
transferees or assigns a security interest in the number of shares of Common and
Preferred Stock owned by the Pledgor as set forth below the Pledgor’s signature
on the signature page hereto (collectively, the “Shares”), as collateral
security for Obligations. Terms used and not defined herein shall have the
meaning ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement.

                              NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, and the mutual covenants
contained herein, the parties hereby agree as follows:

                              1.       
Guaranty. To the extent of the Collateral, the Pledgor hereby absolutely,
unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Pledgee, their successors,
endorsees, transferees and assigns the due and punctual performance and payment
of the Obligations owing to the Pledgee, their successors, endorsees,
transferees or assigns when due, all at the time and place and in the amount and
manner prescribed in, and otherwise in accordance with, the Transaction
Documents, regardless of any defense or set-off counterclaim which the Company
or any other person may have or assert, and regardless of whether or not the
Pledgee or anyone on behalf of the Pledgee shall have instituted any suit,
action or proceeding or exhausted its remedies or taken any steps to enforce any
rights against the Company or any other person to compel any such performance or
observance or to collect all or part of any such amount, either pursuant to the
provisions of the Transaction Documents or at law or in equity, and regardless
of any other condition or contingency. The Pledgor shall have no obligation
whatsoever to the Pledgee beyond the Collateral pledged for the Obligations set
forth herein.

                              2.     
  Waiver of Demand. The Pledgor hereby unconditionally: (i)
waives any requirement that the Pledgee, in the event of a breach in any
material respect by the Company of any of its representations or warranties in
the Transaction Documents, first make demand upon, or seek to enforce remedies
against, the Company or any other person before demanding payment of enforcement
hereunder; (ii) covenants that this Agreement will not be discharged except by
complete performance of all the Obligations to the extent of the Collateral;
(iii) agrees that this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect without
regard to, and shall not be affected or impaired, without limitation, by, any
invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability in whole or in part of the
Transaction Documents or any limitation on the liability of the Company
thereunder, or any limitation on the method or terms of payment thereunder which
may now or hereafter be caused or imposed in any manner whatsoever; and (iv)
waives diligence, presentment and protest with respect to, and notice of default
in the performance or payment of any Obligation by the Company under or in
connection with the Transaction Documents.

                              3.      
 Release. The obligations, covenants, agreements and duties of the
Pledgor hereunder shall not be released, affected or impaired by any assignment
or transfer, in whole or in part, of the Transaction Documents or any
Obligation, although made without notice to or the consent of the Pledgor, or
any waiver by the Pledgee, or by any other person, of the performance or
observance by the Company or the Pledgor of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in the
Transaction Documents, or any indulgence in or the extension of the time or
renewal thereof, or the modification or amendment (whether material or
otherwise), or the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, sale or other
disposition of all or any portion of the stock or assets of the Company or the
Pledgor, or any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, or other
similar proceedings, affecting the Company or the Pledgor or any assets of the
Company or the Pledgor, or the release of any proper from any security for any
Obligation, or the impairment of any such property or security, or the release
or discharge of the Company or the Pledgor from the performance or observance of
any agreement, covenant, term or condition contained in or arising out of the
Transaction Documents by operation of law, or the merger or consolidation of the
Company, or any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing.

                              4.      
 Subrogation.

                                        (a)      Unless
and until complete performance of all the Obligations to the extent of the
Collateral, the Pledgor shall not be entitled to exercise any right of
subrogation to any of the rights of the Pledgee against the Company or any
collateral security or guaranty held by the Pledgee for the payment or
performance of the Obligations, nor shall the Pledgor seek any reimbursement
from the Company in respect of payments made by the Pledgor hereunder.

                                        (b)      In
the extent that the Pledgor shall become obligated to perform or pay any sums
hereunder, or in the event that for any reason the Company is now or shall
hereafter become indebted to the Pledgor, the amount of such sum shall at all
times be subordinate as to lien, time of payment and in all other respects, to
the amounts owing to the Pledgee under the Transaction Documents and the Pledgor
shall not enforce or receive payment thereof until all Obligations due to the
Pledgee under the Transaction have been performed or paid. Nothing herein
contained is intended or shall be construed to give to the Pledgor any right of
subrogation in or under the Transaction Documents, or any right to participate
in any way therein, or in any right, title or interest in the assets of the
Pledgee.

                              5.      
 Security. As collateral security for the punctual payment and
performance, when due, by the Company of all the Obligations, the Pledgor hereby
pledges with, hypothecates, transfers and assigns to the Pledgee all of the
Shares and all proceeds, shares and other securities received, receivable or
otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for the Shares, including,
without limitation, any shares and other securities into which such Shares may
be convertible or exchangeable (collectively, the “Additional Collateral”
and together with the Shares, the “Collateral”). Simultaneously herewith,
the Pledgor shall deliver to the Pledgee the certificate(s) representing the
Shares, stamped with a bank medallion guarantee, along with a stock transfer
power duly executed in blank by the Pledgor, to be held by the Pledgee as
security. Any Collateral received by the Pledgor on or after the date hereof
shall be immediately delivered to the Pledgee together with any executed stock
powers or other transfer documents requested by the Pledgee, which request may
be made at any time prior to the date when the Obligations shall have been paid
and otherwise satisfied in full.

                              6.     
Voting Power, Dividends, Etc. and other Agreements.

                                        (a)      Unless
and until an Event of Default (as set forth in Section 7 hereof) has occurred,
the Pledgor shall be entitled to:

  
         (i)     
      Exercise all voting and/or consensual powers pertaining to the Collateral,
      or any part thereof, for all purposes;

         (ii)      Receive
      and retain dividends paid with respect to the Collateral; and

         (iii)      Receive
      the benefits of any income tax deductions available to the Pledgor as a
      shareholder of the Company.

  

                                        (b)     
The Pledgor agrees that it will not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate,
encumber or otherwise dispose of the Collateral.

                                        (c)      The
Pledgor and the Company jointly and severally agree to pay all costs including
all reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements incurred by the Pledgee in
enforcing this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

                              7.       
Default and Remedies.

                                        (a)     
For the purposes of this Agreement, “Event of Default” shall mean:

     (i)      default
in or under any of the Obligations after the expiration, without cure, of any
applicable cure period;

     (ii)      a
breach in any material respect by the Company of any of its representations or
warranties in the Transaction Documents; or

     (iii)     
a breach in any material respect by the Pledgor of any of its representations or
warranties in this Agreement.

                                        (b)      the
Pledgee shall have the following rights upon any Event of Default:

     (i)      the
rights and remedies provided by the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted by the
State of Arizona (the “UCC”) (as said law may at any time be
amended);

     (ii)     
the right to receive and retain all dividends, payments and other distributions
of any kind upon any or all of the Collateral;

     (iii)      the
right to cause any or all of the Collateral to be transferred to its own name or
to the name of its designee and have such transfer recorded in any place or
places deemed appropriate by the Pledgee; and

     (iv)     
the right to sell, at a public or private sale, the Collateral or any part
thereof for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, and at such price or
prices in accordance with the UCC (as such law may be amended from time to
time). Upon any such sale the Pledgee shall have the right to deliver, assign
and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold. The Pledgee shall
give the Pledgor not less than ten (10) days’ written notice of its intention to
make any such sale. Any such sale, shall be held at such time or times during
ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Pledgee may fix in
the notice of such sale. The Pledgee may adjourn or cancel any sale or cause the
same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place
fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the
same may be so adjourned. In case of any sale of all or any part of the
Collateral upon terms calling for payments in the future, any Collateral so sold
may be retained by the Pledgee until the selling price is paid by the purchaser
thereof, but the Pledgee shall incur no liability in the case of the failure of
such purchaser to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in the case of
such failure, such Collateral may again be sold upon like notice. The Pledgee,
however, instead of exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon them, may
proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose the security
interest and sell the Collateral, or any portion thereof, under a judgment or
decree of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction, the Pledgor having been
given due notice of all such action. The Pledgee shall incur no liability as a
result of a sale of the Collateral or any part thereof. All proceeds of any such
sale, after deducting the reasonable expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees
incurred in connection with such sale, shall be applied in reduction of the
Obligations, and the remainder, if any, shall be paid to the Pledgor.

                              8.       
Application of Proceeds; Release. The proceeds of any sale or enforcement
of or against all or any part of the Collateral, and any other cash or
collateral at the time held by the Pledgee hereunder, shall be applied by the Pledgee first to the payment of the reasonable
costs of any such sale or enforcement, then to reimburse the Pledgee for any
damages, costs or expenses incurred by the Pledgee as a result of an Event of
Default, then to the payment of the principal amount or stated valued (as
applicable) of, and interest or dividends (as applicable) and any other payments
due in respect of, the Obligations. The remainder, if any, shall be paid to the
Pledgor. As used in this Agreement, “proceeds” shall mean cash,
securities and other property realized in respect of, and distributions in kind
of, the Collateral, including any thereof received under any reorganization,
liquidation or adjustment of debt of any issuer of securities included in the
Collateral.

                              9.    
   Representations and Warranties.

                                        (a)

Pledgor has full power and authority and legal right to pledge the Collateral to
the Pledgee pursuant to this Agreement and this Agreement constitutes a legal,
valid and binding obligation of the Pledgor, enforceable in accordance with its
terms.

     (ii)     
the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and other instruments
contemplated herein will not violate any provision of any order or decree of any
court or governmental instrumentality or of any mortgage, indenture, contract or
other agreement to which the Pledgor is a party or by which the Pledgor and the
Collateral may be bound, and will not result in the creation or imposition of
any lien, charge or encumbrance on, or security interest in, any of the
Pledgor’s properties pursuant to the provisions of such mortgage, indenture,
contract or other agreement.

     (iii)      the
Pledgor is the sole record and beneficial owner of all of the Shares; and

     (iv)     
the Pledgor owns the Collateral free and clear of all Liens.

                                   (b)      The
Company represents and warrants to the Pledgee that:

     (i)      it
has no knowledge that any of the representations or warranties of the Pledgor
herein are incorrect or false in any material respect;

     (ii)     
all of the Shares were validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable; and

     (iii)     
the Pledgor is the record holder of the Shares.

                              10.      No
Waiver; No Election of Remedies. No failure on the part of the Pledgee to
exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by the
Pledgee of any right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies herein
provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.
In addition, the exercise of any right or remedy of the Pledgee at law or equity
or under this Agreement or any of the documents shall not be deemed to be an
election of Pledgee’s rights or remedies under such documents or at law or
equity.

                              11.     
Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on the date on which all
Obligations have been performed, satisfied, paid or discharged in full.

                              12.      Further
Assurances. The parties hereto agree that, from time to time upon the
written request of any party hereto, they will execute and deliver such further
documents and do such other acts and things as such party may reasonably request
in order fully to effect the purposes of this Agreement. The Pledgee acknowledge
that they are aware that Pledgor shall have no obligations whatsoever to the
Pledgee beyond the Collateral pledged for the Obligations set forth herein, and no
request for further assurance may or shall increase such Obligations.

incorporates all prior oral and written agreements relating to the subject
matter hereof. No portion or provision of this Agreement may be changed,

PART II. TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Sec. 1 (a) RENTAL RATE - Lessee shall pay lessor rental annually and in advance for each acre or fraction thereof during the continuance of the lease at the rate of $3.00 for each lease year. 
(b) RENTAL CREDITS - Rental shall not be credited against either production or advance royalties for any year.
Sec. 2 (a) PRODUCTION ROYALTIES - The royalty will be 12 1/2 per cent of the value of the coal produced by strip or auger methods and 8 per cent of the value of the coal produced by underground mining methods. The value of the coal shall be determined as set forth in 43 CFR 3480. Royalties are due to lessor the final day of the month succeeding the calendar month in which 

 
the royalty obligation accrues.
(b) ADVANCE ROYALTIES - Upon request by lessee, the authorized officer may accept, for a total of not more than 20 years (30 U.S.C. 207 (b)), the payment of advance royalties in lieu of continued operation, consistent with the regulations. The advance royalty shall be based on a percent of the value of a minimum number of tons determined in the manner established by the advance royalty regulations in effect at the time the lessee requests approval to pay advance royalties in lieu of continued operation. 
Sec. 3 BONDS - Lessee shall maintain in the proper office a lease bond in the amount of $6,561,000. The authorized officer may 

1

require an increase in this amount when additional coverage is determined appropriate.
Sec. 4 DILIGENCE - This lease is subject to the conditions of diligent development and continued operation, except that these conditions are excused when operations under the lease are interrupted by strikes, the elements, or casualties not attributable to the lessee. The lessor, in the public interest, may suspend the condition of continued operation upon payment of advance royalties in accordance with the regulations in existence at the time of the suspension. Lessee's failure to produce coal in commercial quantities at the end of 10 years shall terminate the lease. Lessee must submit an operation and reclamation plan for the BLM's approval pursuant to 30 U.S.C. 207(c) prior to conducting any development or mining operations or taking any other action on a leasehold which might cause a significant disturbance of the environment. 
The lessor reserves the power to assent to or order the suspension of the terms and conditions of this lease in accordance with, inter alia, Section 39 of the Mineral Leasing Act, 30 U.S.C. 209.
5. LOGICAL MINING UNIT (LMU) - Either upon approval by the lessor of the lessee's application or at the direction of the lessor, this lease shall become an LMU or part of an LMU, subject to the provisions set forth in the regulations.
The stipulations established in an LMU approval in effect at the time of LMU approval will supersede the relevant inconsistent terms of this lease so long as the lease remains committed to the LMU. If the LMU of which this lease is a part is dissolved, the lease shall then be subject to the lease terms which would have been applied if the lease had not been included in an LMU. 
Sec. 6. DOCUMENTS, EVIDENCE AND INSPECTION - At such times and in such form as lessor may prescribe, lessee shall furnish detailed statements showing the amounts and quality of all products removed and sold from the lease, the proceeds therefrom, and the amount used for production purposes or unavoidably lost.
Lessee shall keep open at all reasonable times for the inspection of any duly authorized officer of lessor, the leased premises and all surface and underground improvements, works, machinery, ore stockpits, equipment, and all books, accounts, maps, and records relative to operations, surveys, or investigations on or under the leased lands.
Lessee shall allow lessor access to and copying of documents reasonably necessary to verify lessee compliance with terms and conditions of the lease.
While this lease remains in effect, information obtained under this section shall be closed to inspection by the public in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552).
Sec. 7. DAMAGES TO PROPERTY AND CONDUCT OF OPERATIONS - Lessee shall comply at its own expense with all reasonable orders of the Secretary, respecting diligent operations, prevention of waste, and protection of other resources.
Lessee shall not conduct exploration operations, other than casual use, without an approved exploration plan. All exploration plans prior to the commencement of mining operations within an approved mining permit area shall be submitted to the authorized officer.
Lessee shall carry on all operations in accordance with approved methods and practices as provided in the operating regulations, having due regard for the prevention of injury to life, health, or property, and prevention of waste, damage, or degradation to any 

 
land, air, water, cultural, biological, visual, and other resources, including mineral deposits and formations of mineral deposits not leased hereunder, and to other land uses or users. Lessee shall take measures deemed necessary by lessor to accomplish the intent of this lease term. Such measures may include, but are not limited to, modification to proposed siting or design of facilities, timing of operations and specification of interim and final reclamation procedures. Lessor reserves to itself the right to lease, sell or otherwise dispose of the surface or other mineral deposits in the lands and the right to continue existing uses and to authorize future uses upon or in the leased lands, including issuing leases for mineral deposits not covered hereunder, and approving easements or rights-of-way. Lessor shall condition such uses to prevent unnecessary or unreasonable interference with rights of lessee as may be consistent with concepts of multiple use and multiple mineral development.
Sec. 8. PROTECTION OF DIVERSE INTERESTS, AND EQUAL OPPORTUNITY - Lessee shall: pay when due all taxes legally assessed and levied under the laws of the State or the United States; accord all employees complete freedom of purchase; pay all wages at least twice each month in lawful money of the United States; maintain a safe working environment in accordance with standard industry practices; restrict the workday to not more than 8 hours in any one day for underground workers except in emergencies; and take measures necessary to protect the health and safety of the public. No person under the age of 16 years shall be employed in any mine below the surface. To the extent that laws of the State in which the lands are situated are more restrictive than the provisions in this paragraph, then the State laws apply.
Lessee will comply with all provisions of Executive Order No. 11246 of September 24, 1965, as amended, and the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor. Neither lessee nor lessee's subcontractors shall maintain segregated facilities.

	XX 
	This lease may be transferred in whole or in part to any person, association or corporation qualified to hold such lease interest.

This lease may be transferred in whole or in part to another public body, or to a person who will mine coal on behalf of, and for the use of, the public body or to a person who for the limited purpose of creating a security interest in favor of a lender agrees to be obligated to mine the coal on behalf of the public body.
This lease may only be transferred in whole or in part to another  small business qualified under 13 CFR 121.
Transfers of record title, working or royalty interest must be approved in accordance with the regulations.
(b) RELINQUISHMENT- The lessee may relinquish in writing at any time all rights under this lease or any portion thereof as provided in the regulations.

Sec. 11. PROCEEDINGS IN CASE OF DEFAULT - If lessee fails to comply with applicable laws, existing regulations, or the terms, conditions and stipulations of this lease, and the noncompliance continues for 30 days after written notice thereof, this lease shall be subject to cancellation by the lessor only by judicial proceedings.

Any such remedy or waiver shall not prevent later cancellation for the same default occurring at any other time.

2

Sec. 12. HEIRS AND SUCCESSORS-IN-INTEREST-Each obligation of this lease shall extend to and be binding upon, and every benefit hereof shall inure to, the heirs, executors, administrators, successors, or assigns of the respective parties hereto.
Sec. 13. IDEMNIFICATION - Lessee shall indemnify and hold harmless the United States from any and all claims arising out of the lessee's activities and operations under this lease.
Sec. 14. SPECIAL STATUTES - This lease is subject to the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (33 U.S.C. 1151-1175), the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 1857 et. seq.), and to all other applicable laws pertaining to exploration activities, mining operations and reclamation, including the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (30 U.S.C. 1201 et. seq.).
SEC. 15. SPECIAL STIPULATIONS - In addition to observing the general obligations and standards of performance set out in the current regulations, the lessee shall comply with and be bound by the following special stipulations. These stipulations are also imposed upon the lessee's agents and employees. The failure or refusal of any of these persons to comply with these stipulations shall be deemed a failure of the lessee to comply with the terms of the lease. The lessee shall require his agents, contractors and subcontractors involved in activities concerning this lease to include these stipulations in the contracts between and among them. These stipulations may be revised or amended, in writing, by the mutual consent of the lessor and the lessee at any time to adjust to changed conditions or to correct an oversight.
(a) CULTURAL RESOURCES -
(1) Before undertaking any activities that may disturb the surface of the leased lands, the lessee shall conduct a cultural resource intensive field inventory in a manner specified by the Authorized Officer of the BLM or of the surface managing agency, if different, on portions of the mine plan area and adjacent areas, or exploration plan area, that may be adversely affected by lease-related activities and which were not previously inventoried at such a level of intensity. The inventory shall be conducted by a qualified professional cultural resource specialist (i.e., archeologist, historian, historical architect, as appropriate), approved by the Authorized Officer of the surface managing agency (BLM, if the surface is privately owned), and a report of the inventory and recommendations for protecting any cultural resources identified shall be submitted to the Regional Director of the Western Region of the Office of Surface Mining (the Western Regional Director), the Authorized Officer of the BLM, if activities are associated with coal exploration outside an approved mining permit area (hereinafter called Authorized Officer), and the Authorized Officer of the surface managing agency, if different. The lessee shall undertake measures, in accordance with instructions from the Western Regional Director, or Authorized Officer, to protect cultural resources on the leased lands. The lessee shall not commence the surface disturbing activities until permission to proceed is given by the Western Regional Director or Authorized Officer.
(2) The lessee shall protect all cultural properties that have been determined eligible to the National Register of Historic Places within the lease area from lease-related activities until the cultural resource mitigation measures can be implemented as part of an approved mining and reclamation or exploration plan unless modified by mutual agreement in consultation with the State Historic Preservation Officer.
(3) The cost of conducting the inventory, preparing reports, and carrying out mitigation measures shall be borne by the lessee.

 
(4) If cultural resources are discovered during operations under this lease, the lessee shall immediately bring them to the attention of the Western Regional Director or Authorized Officer, or the Authorized Officer of the surface managing agency, if the Western Regional Director is not available. The lessee shall not disturb such resources except as may be subsequently authorized by the Western Regional Director or Authorized Officer.
Within two (2) working days of notification, the Western Regional Director or Authorized Officer will evaluate or have evaluated any cultural resources discovered and will determine if any action may be required to protect or preserve such discoveries. The cost of data recovery for cultural resources discovered during lease operations shall be borne by the lessee unless otherwise specified by the Authorized Officer of the BLM or of the surface managing agency, if different. 
(5) All cultural resources shall remain under the jurisdiction of the United States until ownership is determined under applicable law. 
(b) PALEONTOLOGICAL RESOURCES - If paleontological resources, either large and conspicuous, and/or of significant scientific value are discovered during surface disturbing activities, the find will be reported to the Authorized Officer immediately. Surface disturbing activities will be suspended within 250 feet of said find. An evaluation of the paleontological discovery will be made by a BLM approved professional paleontologist within five (5) working days, weather permitting, to determine the appropriate action(s) to prevent the potential loss of any significant paleontological value. Operations within 250 feet of such discovery will not be resumed until written authorization to proceed is issued by the Authorized Officer. The lessee will bear the cost of any required paleontological appraisals, surface collection of fossils, or salvage of any large conspicuous fossils of significant scientific interest discovered during the operations;
(c) MULTIPLE MINERAL DEVELOPMENT - Operations will not be approved which, in the opinion of the Authorized Officer, would unreasonably interfere with the orderly development and/or production from a valid existing mineral lease issued prior to this one for the same lands.
(d) OIL AND GAS/COAL RESOURCES - The BLM realizes that coal mining operations conducted on Federal coal leases issued within producing oil and gas fields may interfere with the economic recovery of oil and gas; just as Federal oil and gas leases issued in a Federal coal lease area may inhibit coal recovery. BLM retains the authority to alter and/or modify the resource recovery and protection plans for coal operations and/or oil and gas operations on those lands covered by Federal mineral leases so as to obtain maximum resource recovery.
(e) RESOURCE RECOVERY AND PROTECTION - Notwithstanding the approval of a resource recovery and protection plan (R2P2) by the BLM, lessor reserves the right to seek damages against the operator/lessee in the event (i) the operator/lessee fails to achieve maximum economic recovery (MER) (as defined at 43 CFR 3480.0-5(21)) of the recoverable coal reserves or (ii) the operator/ lessee is determined to have caused a wasting of recoverable coal reserves. Damages shall be measured on the basis of royalty that would have been payable on the wasted or unrecovered coal.
The parties recognize that under an approved R2P2, conditions may require a modification by the operator/lessee of that plan. In the event a coal bed or portion thereof is not to be mined or is rendered unmineable by the operation, the operator/lessee shall submit appropriate justification to obtain approval by the authorized officer 

3

(AO) to leave such reserves unmined. Upon approval by the AO, such coal beds or portions thereof shall not be subject to damages as described above. Further, nothing in this section shall prevent the operator/lessee from exercising its right to relinquish all or portion of the lease as authorized by statute and regulation.
In the event the AO determines that the R2P2, as approved, will not attain MER as the result of changed conditions, the AO will give proper notice to the operator/lessee as required under applicable regulations. The AO will order a modification, if necessary, identifying additional reserves to be mined in order to attain MER. Upon a final administrative or judicial ruling upholding such an ordered modification, any reserves left unmined (wasted) under that plan will be subject to damages as described in the first paragraph under this section.
Subject to the right to appeal hereinafter set forth, payment of the value of the royalty on such unmined recoverable coal reserves shall become due and payable upon determination by the AO that the coal reserves have been rendered unmineable or at such time that the operator/lessee has demonstrated an unwillingness to extract the coal.
The BLM may enforce this provision either by issuing a written decision requiring payment of the MMS demand for such royalties, or by issuing a notice of noncompliance. A decision or notice of noncompliance issued by the lessor that payment is due under this stipulation is appealable as allowed by law.
(f) PUBLIC LAND SURVEY PROTECTION - The lessee will protect all survey monuments, witness corners, reference monuments, and bearing trees against destruction, obliteration, or damage during operations on the lease areas. If any monuments, corners or accessories are destroyed, obliterated, or damaged by this operation, the lessee will hire an appropriate county surveyor or registered land surveyor to reestablish or restore the monuments, corners, or accessories at the same location, using surveying procedures in accordance with the "Manual of Surveying Instructions for the Survey of the Public Lands of the United States. " The survey will be recorded in the appropriate county records, with a copy sent to the Authorized Officer.

 
(g) THREATENED AND ENDANGERED SPECIES - The lease area may now or hereafter contain plants, animals, or their habitats determined to be threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended, 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq., or that have other special status. The Authorized Officer may recommend modifications to exploration and development proposals to further conservation and management objectives or to avoid activity that will contribute to a need to list such species or their habitat or to comply with any biological opinion issued by the Fish and Wildlife Service for the proposed action. The Authorized Officer will not approve any ground-disturbing activity that may affect any such species or critical habitat until it completes its obligations under applicable requirements of the Endangered Species Act. The Authorized Officer may require modifications to, or disapprove a proposed activity that is likely to result in jeopardy to the continued existence of a proposed or listed threatened or endangered species, or result in the destruction or adverse modification of designated or proposed critical habitat.
The lessee shall comply with instructions from the Authorized Officer of the surface managing agency (BLM, if the surface is private) for ground disturbing activities associated with coal exploration on federal coal leases prior to approval of a mining and reclamation permit or outside an approved mining and reclamation permit area. The lessee shall comply with instructions from the Authorized Officer of the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement, or his designated representative, for all ground disturbing activities taking place within an approved mining and reclamation permit area or associated with such a permit.
