in writing or as otherwise expressly permitted herein

     2.5. Whenever required by the context of this Escrow Agreement, the

governed by, interpreted under and construed and enforced in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York. Any action to enforce, arising out of, or

act the Escrow Agent may do or omit to do hereunder as the Escrow Agent while

in connection with this Escrow Agreement or obligations in respect hereto, the
necessary parties hereto shall join in furnishing such instruments.

representatives from any and all claims, liabilities, costs or expenses in any
way arising from or relating to the duties or performance of the Escrow Agent
hereunder or the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Loan Agreement other

                                       7EXHIBIT 10.1

     AGREEMENT  AND  PLAN  OF  REORGANIZATION  among  GUARDIAN  ACQUISITION
CORPORATION,  a  Delaware  corporation  ("Guardian"),  TRITON-EURASIA PETROLEUM,
INC.,  a  Canadian  corporation  ("Triton-Eurasia")  and  the  persons listed in
Exhibit  A  hereof (collectively the "Shareholders"), being the owners of record
of  all  the  issued  and  outstanding  stock  of  Triton-Eurasia.

     Whereas,  Guardian  wishes to acquire and Shareholders wish to transfer all
of  the  issued  and  outstanding  securities of Triton-Eurasia in a transaction
intended  to  qualify  as a reorganization within the meaning of 368(a)(1)(B) of
the  Internal  Revenue  Code  of  1986,  as  amended  (the  Exchange).

     Now,  therefore,  Guardian, Triton-Eurasia, and the Shareholders adopt this
plan  of  reorganization  and  agree  as  follows:

     1.     EXCHANGE  OF  STOCK

     1.1.     NUMBER  OF SHARES.  The Shareholders agree to transfer to Guardian
at  the  Closing  (defined  below)  the  number  of  shares  of  common stock of
Triton-Eurasia, no par value per share, shown opposite their names in Exhibit A,
in  exchange  for  an  aggregate  of 11,264,430 shares of voting common stock of
Guardian,  $  .0001  par  value  per  share.

     1.2.     EXCHANGE  OF  CERTIFICATES.  Each  holder  of  an  outstanding
certificate  or  certificates  theretofore representing shares of Triton-Eurasia
common  stock  shall surrender such certificate(s) for cancellation to Guardian,
and  shall  receive  in  exchange a certificate or certificates representing the
number  of  full  shares  of  Guardian  common  stock  into  which the shares of
Triton-Eurasia  common  stock  represented by the certificate or certificates so
surrendered shall have been converted.  The transfer of Triton-Eurasia shares by
the Shareholders shall be effected by the delivery to Guardian at the Closing of
certificates  representing  the  transferred  shares  endorsed  in  blank  or
accompanied  by  stock  powers  executed  in  blank.

     1.3.     FRACTIONAL  SHARES.  Fractional  shares  of  Guardian common stock
shall  not  be  issued,  but  in lieu thereof Guardian shall round up fractional
shares  to  the  next  highest  whole  number.

     1.4.     FURTHER  ASSURANCES.  At  the  Closing  and  from  time  to  time
thereafter,  the Shareholders shall execute such additional instruments and take
such  other  action  as  Guardian may request in order more effectively to sell,
transfer, and assign the transferred stock to Guardian and to confirm Guardian's
title  thereto.
<PAGE>
     2.     CLOSING

     2.1.     MANNER.  The  Closing  contemplated  herein  shall  be held at the
offices  of the Exchange Agent provided for herein without requiring the meeting
of  the  parties  hereof.  All  proceedings  to be taken and all documents to be
executed  at  the  Closing  shall  be  deemed  to have been taken, delivered and
executed  simultaneously,  and no proceeding shall be deemed taken nor documents
deemed  executed or delivered until all have been taken, delivered and executed.
The date of Closing may be accelerated or extended by agreement of the  parties.

     2.2.     EXECUTION  OF DOCUMENTS.  Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or
other  reliable  reproduction  of  the  writing or transmission required by this
agreement  or  any signature required thereon may be used in lieu of an original
writing  or  transmission  or  signature  for any and all purposes for which the
original  could be used, provided that such copy, facsimile telecommunication or
other  reproduction  shall  be  a  complete  reproduction of the entire original
writing  or  transmission  or  original  signature.

     3.     UNEXCHANGED  CERTIFICATES.   Until  surrendered,  each  outstanding
certificate  that  prior  to the Closing represented Triton-Eurasia common stock
shall  be  deemed for all purposes, other than the payment of dividends or other
distributions,  to evidence ownership of the number of shares of Guardian common
stock  into  which it was converted.  No dividend or other distribution shall be
paid  to  the  holders  of  certificates  of  Triton-Eurasia  common stock until
presented  for  exchange  at  which  time  any  outstanding  dividends  or other
distributions  shall  be  paid.

     4.     REPRESENTATIONS  AND  WARRANTIES  OF  GUARDIAN

now,  in the past or in the future as to which the parties or any affiliates may
be  adverse parties, and whether arising out of this agreement or from any other
cause,  will  be  resolved  by  arbitration  before  the  American  Arbitration
Association  within  the  District  of  Columbia.

     12.2.     CONSENT TO JURISDICTION, SITUS AND JUDGEMENT.  The parties hereby
irrevocably  consent to the jurisdiction of the American Arbitration Association
and  the  situs  of  the  arbitration  (and any requests for injunctive or other

enforcement  of  such  awards.

     12.3.     APPLICABLE  LAW.  The  law applicable to the arbitration and this
agreement  shall  be that of the State of Delaware, determined without regard to
its  provisions  which  would otherwise apply to a question of conflict of laws.

<PAGE>

allow  the  parties to make reasonable disclosure and discovery in regard to any
matters  which  are the subject of the arbitration and to compel compliance with
such  disclosure  and  discovery order.  The arbitrator may order the parties to
comply with all or any of the disclosure and discovery provisions of the Federal

arbitrator  consistent  with the desire to simplify the conduct and minimize the

jurisdiction  whose  law  applies to the arbitration so that the decision of the
arbitrator  will  be,  as  much as possible, the same as if the dispute had been
determined  by  a  court  of  competent  jurisdiction.

     12.6.     FINALITY  AND  FEES.  Any  award  or  decision  by  the  American
Arbitration  Association shall be final, binding and non-appealable except as to
errors  of  law  or  the  failure of the arbitrator to adhere to the arbitration
provisions contained in this agreement.  Each party to the arbitration shall pay
its own costs and counsel fees except as specifically provided otherwise in this
agreement.

     12.7.     MEASURE  OF  DAMAGES.  In  any  adverse action, the parties shall
restrict  themselves to claims for compensatory damages and\or securities issued
or  to  be issued and no claims shall be made by any party or affiliate for lost
profits,  punitive  or  multiple  damages.

     12.8.     COVENANT  NOT  TO  SUE.  The  parties  covenant  that  under  no
conditions  will  any  party  or any affiliate file any action against the other
(except  only  requests  for  injunctive or other equitable relief) in any forum
other  than  before  the American Arbitration Association, and the parties agree
that any such action, if filed, shall be dismissed upon application and shall be
referred  for  arbitration  hereunder  with  costs  and  attorney's  fees to the
prevailing  party.

     12.9.     INTENTION.  It  is  the  intention  of  the  parties  and  their
affiliates  that  all  disputes  of  any  nature between them, whenever arising,
whether  in  regard  to this agreement or any other matter, from whatever cause,
based  on whatever law, rule or regulation, whether statutory or common law, and
however  characterized, be decided by arbitration as provided herein and that no
party  or  affiliate  be required to litigate in any other forum any disputes or
other  matters  except  for  requests  for injunctive or equitable relief.  This
agreement  shall  be  interpreted  in conformance with this stated intent of the
parties  and  their  affiliates.

     12.10.     SURVIVAL.  The provisions for arbitration contained herein shall
survive  the  termination  of  this  agreement  for  any  reason.

     13.     GENERAL  PROVISIONS.

such  additional instruments and take such actions as may be reasonably required

in  writing  by  the  party  to  whom  such  compliance  is  owed.

<PAGE>
     13.3.     BROKERS.  Each  party  agrees  to indemnify and hold harmless the
