      day after the date of issuance, after which the Sale Shares shall be
      freely tradeable in Canada. Eternal further acknowledges that the Sale
      Shares will not be registered in the United States and consequently there
      will be resale restrictions in the United States. The certificate or
      certificates in respect of the Sale Shares shall be endorsed with legends

restrictions:

Shares are sold (a) Ryland is then a “foreign issuer” as defined in Regulation S
under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities
Act”) and (b) the Sale Shares are sold in compliance with the requirements of
Rule 904 of Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act and in compliance with
applicable Canadian securities laws and regulations, then Ryland shall, or shall
cause its transfer agent to, remove the legend on the certificate representing
such shares within two business days of the receipt of a duly executed
Representation Letter of the Seller in substantially the form annexed hereto as
Schedule C;

     

    provided further, that, if any of the Sale
Shares are being sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the U.S. Securities Act, the
legend may be removed upon the delivery to Ryland’s transfer agent of an opinion
of counsel of recognized standing in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to Ryland, to the effect that the legend is no longer required under applicable
requirements of the U.S. Securities Act or applicable state securities
laws.

ownership will be transferred to Ryland prior to Closing; and

     

    
      
        	
              	
                (c)

              	
                Cash
      Consideration:  On June 1, 2010, pay to Eternal USD
      $3,000,000 (net of any required withholding taxes Ryland is obligated to
      deduct from the aforesaid payment and remit to the Canada Revenue Agency
      (the "CRA") as
      provided in Section 116 of the ITA) by way of wire transfer or as
      otherwise directed by Eternal in writing (the "Cash Consideration").
      Ryland acknowledges and agrees that a re-conveyance back to Eternal for
      60% of the Sale Royalties will be escrowed at Closing with Miller Thomson,
      solicitors for Ryland, who will be appointed as escrow agent, as security
      for the payment of the Cash Consideration.   The parties
      further agree that such re-conveyance of 60% of the Sale Royalties shall
      be released to Eternal immediately upon Ryland’s failure to pay the Cash
      Consideration by the close of business on June 1,
  2010.

                Section 85
      Rollover:  It is the intention of the parties that the
      sale of the Sale Royalties will be effected as a "rollover" pursuant to
      section 85(1) of the Income Tax Act (Canada)
      (the "ITA") with the intent that Eternal will not be liable for the
      immediate payment of income tax in Canada on the Share Consideration, but
      rather will obtain a tax deferral until such time as Eternal sells the
      Sale Shares.  The parties will file all necessary documents with
      the CRA to evidence their election to effect the purchase and sale of the
      Sale Royalties as a transaction under section 85(1) of the ITA concurrent
      with the tax clearance application described in Clause 5(b)
      below.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	
              	
                (b)

              	
                Withholding
      Tax:  Promptly following execution of this Agreement,
      Eternal, with the assistance of Ryland, will apply to the CRA for a tax
      clearance certificate under section 116 of the ITA to limit the Canadian
      withholding tax on the Property Consideration and the Cash Consideration
      to no more than 28%.  To that end, Eternal acknowledges that it
      may be required to prepare and file a tax return with the CRA in support
      of its application.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	
              	
                (c)

              	
                Ryland
      Assistance:  Ryland agrees to instruct its Canadian tax
      advisors to provide all advice and assistance reasonably required by
      Eternal and its tax advisors to complete the application described above
      and all ancillary forms and to assist in filing same with the CRA and
      responding to questions and comments, all with a view to having Eternal's
      application granted within a reasonable
time.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	
              	
                (d)

              	
                Possible
      Amendments:  The parties agree to amend this Agreement or
      execute such additional agreements as may be recommended by their tax
      advisors to more properly reflect their intentions as set out in this
      Section 5.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	
              	
                (e)

              	
                GST and PST:
      Eternal acknowledges that it is liable for payment on Closing of federal
      GST and PST on the sale price of the Hardy Tangibles and the Hardy
      Miscellaneous Interests.

                Adjustments.  The
      effective date of the sale, conveyance, transfer and assignment of the
      Sale Royalties to Ryland and the conveyance, transfer and assignment of
      the Hardy Assets to Eternal will be April 1, 2010 (the "Effective Date"). The
      parties acknowledge and agree that, upon Closing and except as may
      hereafter be expressly provided to the contrary, Ryland (as to the Sale
      Royalties) and Eternal (as to the Hardy Assets) will assume and be
      responsible for 100% of all expenses and obligations associated with the
      assets they acquire hereunder but there will be no adjustment or accrual
      with respect to any expenses and obligations paid or incurred prior to the
      Effective Date.  For greater certainty, an adjustment will be
      made to reflect the royalties payable to Eternal by Pebble to March 31,
      2010 and payable in accordance with the Eternal Royalty Agreements. Final
      adjustments will be made by May 31,
2010.

                TSXV
      Acceptance.  This Agreement is subject to TSXV
      acceptance. Ryland agrees to make application to the TSXV for acceptance
      promptly upon execution of this Agreement and use its reasonable best
      efforts to obtain such acceptance within 30 days of execution. Eternal
      agrees to assist Ryland by providing such information as the TSXV may
      reasonably require and which is within Eternal's knowledge or
      control.

                Closing.  The Closing shall
      take place at 2:00 pm on the Closing Date in the offices of Ryland in
      Vancouver, BC or at such other date, time, place and manner as the parties
      may mutually agree upon in writing. On Closing (a) Eternal shall execute
      and deliver such general and specific conveyances, transfers and
      assignments and other documents as Ryland may reasonably require to
      complete the sale, conveyance, transfer and assignment of the Sale
      Royalties, and (b) Ryland shall deliver the TSXV acceptance letter and a
      certificate representing the Sale Shares and, further, Ryland shall
      execute and deliver such general and specific conveyances, transfers and
      assignments and other documents as Eternal may reasonably require to
      complete the conveyance, transfer and assignment of the Hardy
      Assets.  Each party shall also deliver such further
      documentation as the other party may reasonably request to complete the
      transactions contemplated hereby including, without limitation, officer's
      certificates in respect of each party's representations and warranties and
      any required escrow documentation to secure the payment of the Cash
      Consideration.  All documentation delivered at Closing shall be
      in form and substance satisfactory to the parties, acting
      reasonably.
      Eternal shall deliver to Ryland all of its files and other records
      pertaining to the Sale Royalties as soon as commercially reasonable
      following Closing and Ryland, in turn, shall deliver to Eternal all of its
      lease and agreement files and other records pertaining to the Hardy Assets
      as soon as commercially reasonable following
  Closing.

      the Hardy Assets to be maintained in the ordinary course of business,
      consistent with past practice and applicable law, and shall cause all
      obligations under the relevant mineral leases and any other agreements
      affecting the Hardy Assets to be performed and complied with and neither
      Ryland nor Pebble shall, without Eternal's prior written consent, commence
      or consent to any operation in respect of the Hardy Assets, remove or
      dispose of any of the Hardy Assets, amend any Hardy Lease or other

                Hardy
      Review Period.  Ryland agrees that Eternal shall have
      until March 31, 2010 to undertake a title review and
      environmental assessment in respect of the Hardy Assets ("Review
      Period").  On or before the end of the Review Period,
      Eternal shall advise Ryland in writing if in Eternal's sole opinion,
      acting reasonably, Ryland/Pebble's title to such interests is sufficient
      and it has obtained a satisfactory environmental assessment that it wishes
      to proceed with the sale of the Sale Royalties.  Failure to
      provide Ryland with such a notice prior to the expiration of the Review
      Period will be deemed to be an election by Eternal to
    proceed.

      Obligations:  Eternal shall remain liable for all
      liabilities and obligations in respect of the Sale Royalties existing or
      that arise out of events occurring prior to the Effective Date and Eternal
      shall discharge and satisfy such liabilities and obligations and indemnify
      Ryland from and against any and all Claims associated
      therewith.  Subject to Clause 11(c), Ryland shall likewise
      remain liable for all liabilities and obligations in respect of the Hardy
      Assets existing or that arise out of events occurring prior to the
      Effective Date and Ryland shall discharge and satisfy such obligations and
      indemnify Eternal from and against any and all Claims associated
      therewith.

                Post-Effective Date
      Obligations:  Upon Closing, Ryland shall assume 100% of
      all liabilities and obligations in respect of the Sale Royalties arising
      or that arise out of events occurring after the Effective Date and Ryland
      shall discharge and satisfy such liabilities and obligations and indemnify
      Eternal from and against any and all Claims associated
      therewith.  Eternal, upon Closing, shall assume 100% of all
      liabilities and obligations in respect of the Hardy Assets (including,
      without limitation, those arising under the Hardy Leases or any other
      relevant agreements), arising or that arise out of events occurring after
      the Effective Date and Eternal shall discharge and satisfy such
      obligations and indemnify Ryland from and against any and all Claims
      associated therewith.

                (c)

              	
                Hardy Environmental
      Liabilities:  Notwithstanding anything else herein
      contained, Eternal agrees that it shall, upon Closing (i) be solely liable
      and responsible for any and all Claims relating to events or conditions
      on, prior to, and after the Effective Date which Ryland or Pebble may
      suffer, sustain, pay or incur, and (ii) indemnify and save Ryland and
      Pebble harmless from any and all Claims whatsoever which may be brought
      against or suffered by them or which they may sustain, pay or incur, in
      either case as a result of any matter or thing arising out of, resulting
      from, attributable to or connected with any Environmental Liabilities
      pertaining to the Hardy Assets, or any of them, including, without
      limitation, damage from or removal of hazardous or toxic substances,
      clean-up and the Abandonment and Reclamation Obligations.  Once
      Closing has occurred, Eternal shall be solely responsible for all
      Environmental Liabilities respecting the Hardy Assets and the performance
      of the Abandonment and Reclamation Obligations (as between Ryland/Pebble
      and Eternal), and releases Ryland and Pebble from any Claims Eternal may
      have against Ryland and Pebble with respect to all such liabilities and
      responsibilities.  The parties have taken into account Eternal's
      assumption of responsibility for the future Abandonment and Reclamation
      Obligations associated with the Hardy Assets, as set forth in this
      Agreement, and Ryland and Pebble's release of responsibility therefor when
      they determined the Property
Consideration.

                Pre-Closing
      Termination Options:  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
      should any liability or obligation arise after the Effective Date but
      prior to Closing which would materially affect the value of the Sale
      Royalties or the Hardy Assets, Ryland or Eternal, as applicable, shall
      have the option prior to Closing to terminate the proposed transactions by
      giving the other party written
notice.

                Eternal:  Eternal
      makes the following  representations and warranties to Ryland,
      all of which shall be true and accurate in all material respects as of the
      Closing:

                Organization and

                (ii)

              	
                Power and
      Authority:  Eternal has all requisite power and authority
      to carry on its business as presently conducted, to enter into this
      Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder and this Agreement has
      been approved by all necessary corporate action on the part of
      Eternal.  The consummation of this Agreement will not violate,
      nor be in conflict with, (A) any provision of the governing documents of
      Eternal, (B) any agreements to which Eternal is a party, or (C) any
      judgment, decree, ordinance, law, regulation or permit. In particular, the

      Rover Resources, Inc. ("Rover") of Eternal's
      interest in certain North Dakota hydrocarbon properties (the "Border Acreage Sale")
      does not constitute a sale of substantially all of Eternal's assets and,
      consequently, Eternal does not require the approval of its shareholders to
      enter into this Agreement or to perform its obligations
      hereunder;

      would or might have an adverse effect on the Sale Royalties or the ability
      of Eternal to consummate the transactions contemplated by this
      Agreement;

                No Consents or Rights
      of First Refusal:  Except for the consent of the royalty
      payors under the Eternal Royalty Agreements, there are no consents
      required or rights of first refusal or similar rights triggered as a
      result of the contemplated sale of the Sale
  Royalties;

                Full
      Disclosure:  To the best of Eternal's knowledge, none of
      the above representations and warranties fails to state a material fact
      necessary to make the statements contained therein not
      misleading.

      material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated
      therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not
      misleading.  As of their respective dates, the financial
      statements of Ryland included in the Ryland Disclosure Documents complied

      shareholders’ equity for the periods then
ended.

      and shall, in every regard, be treated as a contract made in the Province

      jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement, the application of such

      invalid, illegal or unenforceable or the validity, legality or
      enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction shall not in
      any way be affected or impaired thereby and such provision shall be
      severable from this Agreement to the extent of such invalidity, illegality
      or unenforceability.
