    RE:
      Amendment
      to Option Agreement dated January 17, 2005

    

    Dear
      Bill:

    

    Reference
      is made to the Option Agreement (the “Option”) between us dated January 17, 2005
      relating to 3 million shares of uKarma Corporation owned by me (the “Shares”).
      This confirms our agreement that Section 1 of the Option is amended so that
      the
      purchase price is changed from $.20 per share to One Hundred Dollars ($100.00)
      in the aggregate for all of the Shares.

    

    Except
      as
      amended above, all of the other terms and conditions of the Option shall remain
      in full force and effect.

     

    
      	
              Very
                truly yours,

        	To:	 	
                FRED
                  TANNOUS

              

      

      

      I
        hereby
        exercise that certain Option Agreement dated January 17, 2005, as amended
        as of
        the date hereof (the “Option”) and elect to purchase 3 million shares of Common
        Stock of uKarma Corporation (the “Company”) from you pursuant to the terms of
        the Option. The undersigned tenders herewith payment of the exercise price
        of
        One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) in the aggregate for all of the such shares
        pursuant to the terms of the Option. 

      

      The
        undersigned hereby represents and warrants to, and agrees with you as follows:
        

          

      
           
1. 
          I
          am acquiring the shares for my own account, for investment purposes
          only.  

         

          
             2.  I understand
          that an investment in the shares involves a high degree of risk, and I
          have the
          financial ability to bear the economic risk of this investment in the shares,
          including a complete loss of such investment. I have adequate means for
          providing for my current financial needs and have no need for liquidity
          with
          respect to this investment. 

         

      

                    
        3. 
        I have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that
        I am
        capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the shares
        and in
        protecting my own interests in connection with this transaction.

      

      4. 
        I understand that the shares have not been registered under the Securities
        Act
        of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or under any state securities laws. I
        am familiar with the provisions of the Securities Act and Rule 144 thereunder
        and understand that the restrictions on transfer on the shares may result
        in my
        being required to hold the snares for an indefinite period of time.

      

      5.
         I agree not to sell, transfer, assign, gift, create a security interest
        in, or otherwise dispose of, with or without consideration (collectively,
        “Transfer”) any of the shares except pursuant to an effective registration
        statement under the Securities Act or an exemption
        from
        registration. 

      

      6.  
        I am an “accredited” investor as defined under Rule 501 of Regulation
        D under
        the
        Securities Act.

      

      
             
7. 
           I understand that shares will bear the following legend:

    FOR
      VALUE
      RECEIVED, the undersigned UKARMA CORPORATION (“Maker”) agrees to pay to BILL
      GLASER (“Holder”) the principal sum of Twenty
      Thousand
      Fifty-One Dollars and 34/100 ($20,051.34),
      together
      with accrued interest thereon at the rate of seven percent (7%) per year, ON
      DEMAND by Holder.

    

    All
      payment obligations evidenced hereby are payable only in lawful money of the
      United States. Holder hereby waives presentment, demand for payment, notice
      of
      dishonor and any and all other notices or demands in connection with the
      delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note. If
      this
      Note or any payment provided for hereunder is not paid when due, whether at
      maturity or by acceleration, the Maker promises to pay all costs and expenses,
      including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Holder in
      connection with the collection and enforcement of this Note, whether or not
      suit
      is filed hereon. 

    

    Maker
      agrees that its liabilities hereunder are absolute and unconditional without
      regard to the liability of any party. Maker waives the right to interpose any
      setoff, counterclaim or defense of any nature or description whatsoever. Maker
      agrees that no delay on the part of Holder in exercising any power or right
      hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
      exercise of any power or right hereunder preclude other or further exercise
      thereof or the exercise of any other power or right.

    

    If
      at any
      time this transaction would be usurious under applicable law, then regardless
      of
      any provision contained in the Agreement, in this Note or in any other agreement
      made in connection with this transaction, it is agreed that the total of all
      consideration which constitutes interest under applicable law that is contracted
      for, charged or received upon the Agreement, this Note or any such other
      agreement shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum rate of interest
      authorized by applicable law and any excess shall be credited to
      Maker.

    

    If
      the
      Maker shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or any petition
      or
      proceeding for any relief under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
      insolvency, readjustment of debt, receivership, liquidation of dissolution
      law
      or statute now or hereinafter in effect (whether at law or in equity) is filed
      or commenced by or against the Maker or any property of the Maker, or if any
      trustee or receiver is appointed for the Maker or any such property, then and
      in
      any such event, in addition to all rights and remedies of Holder, all such
      rights and remedies being cumulative, not exclusive and enforceable
      alternatively, successively and concurrently, Holder may, at its option, declare
      all amounts owing to be due and payable, whereupon the maturity of the then
      unpaid balance thereof shall be accelerated and the same, together with all
      interest accrued thereon, shall forthwith become due and payable.

    

    The
      principal of the Note may be prepaid in whole or in part, provided that all
      accrued interest (if any) on the amount to be prepaid is also paid at such
      time.
      This Note may not be changed, modified or terminated orally, but only by an
      agreement in writing signed by Maker and Holder. This Note shall be governed
      by
      and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
      California.

                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
                              --------------------

This  Employment  Agreement  is  made  and  entered  into  by and  between  Amen
Properties,  Inc.  ("Employer")  and Kris Oliver  ("Employee"),  effective as of
March 1, 2007 (the "Effective  Date").  In consideration of the mutual covenants
herein contained, and other good and valuable consideration,  the parties hereby
agree as follows:

     1.   Employer  hereby  employs   Employee,   and  Employee  hereby  accepts
          employment  from  Employer  upon the  terms and  conditions  set forth
          herein.  Employer is Amen  Properties,  Inc.  ("Amen"),  and  Employee
          acknowledges  and agrees that he will  provide  services to or for the
          benefit  of  Employer  or  their  respective   subsidiaries,   at  the
          discretion of the Board of Directors of Amen. As used herein, the term
          "Business" shall include the businesses of Amen or any such subsidiary
          to which Employee provides services

     2.   Term.  This Agreement  shall  commence the 1st day of March,  2007 and
          shall not be subject to termination except for Cause until on or after
          the  28th day of  February,  2009.  From and  after  that  date,  this
          Agreement  may be terminated by either party with or without Cause and
          shall  extend until  terminated  in  accordance  with Section 9 below.
          "Cause" shall mean either of the following:

          a.   Employee's  gross   negligence  or  willful   misconduct  in  the
               performance  of the  duties and  services  required  of  Employee
               pursuant to this Agreement;

          b.   Employee's final conviction of a felony;

     3.   Productive  Time.  Employee shall devote his entire  productive  time,
          ability and attention to the  Business,  at the office of the Business
          and at such other  locations as Employer  shall direct.  The foregoing
          notwithstanding,  the parties  recognize  and agree that  Employee may
          engage in passive personal  investments and other business activities,
          which do not  conflict  with the  business  and affairs of Employer or
          interfere with Employee's performance of his duties hereunder.

     4.   Compensation:

          a.   Salary.  Employee  shall be paid the sum of  $140,000  per annum,
               payable  semimonthly  on the  fifteenth  and the last day of each
               month during the term hereof,  pro-rated at the  beginning and at
               the termination of this  Agreement,  subject to any adjustment as
               the parties shall agree in writing.  This salary will be reviewed
               annually on the anniversary date of the Agreement by Employee and
               Employer  for   potential   adjustment   related  to  changes  in
               responsibility or market conditions.

          b.   Bonus.  Employee  shall  be paid an  annual  bonus  based  on the
               increase  in Book  Value per  share  ("BVPS")  of the  Employer's
               common stock. BVPS is calculated as year-end audited Shareholders
               Equity  (Total  Assets  minus Total  Liabilities)  divided by the
               fully diluted  number of common shares  outstanding.  The maximum
               bonus  payment that can be earned for any fiscal year is equal to
               60% of the  Employee's  annual salary for that year.  The minimum
               increase in BVPS  required to earn a bonus is 10%,  for which the
               Employee will receive a bonus of 10% of his then-current  salary.
               The increase in BVPS  required to earn the maximum  bonus is 20%.
               Employee  shall be paid a pro-rated  bonus for  increases in BVPS
               between  10%  and  20%.   The  annual  bonus  shall  be  paid  in
               semi-annual  installments.  The Employee can receive the bonus in
               cash,  restricted  stock  or  any  combination  of the  two.  The
               monetary  value  of any  portion  of the  annual  bonus  that the
               Employee  elects to receive in restricted  stock rather than cash
               shall be  adjusted  upward by 20% (for  example,  a $10,000  cash
               bonus would be equal to $12,000 in restricted  stock).  The stock
               price that shall be used to determine the number shares issued is
               the average  closing  stock price for the last twenty days of the
               period for which the bonus is being  paid.  For fiscal year 2007,
               the bonus will be based on the  increase  in BVPS for fiscal year
               2007; in 2008, the bonus will be based on the average increase in
               BVPS for fiscal years 2007 and 2008;  thereafter,  the bonus will
               be based on a three year moving average increase in BVPS.

     8.   Employer  Property.  Upon  termination  of  employment,  Employee will
          return to Employer  all records,  books,  lists,  reports,  documents,
          files,  and data stored on computers  or in any other  means,  whether
          original or copies and coming into employee's possession by or through
          his employment by Employer.

     9.   Termination.  The Employee's employment hereunder may be terminated by
          Employer or the Employee,  as  applicable,  without any breach of this

          a.   Automatically upon Employee's death.

          b.   By (i) Employer upon Employee's Permanent  Disability,  for Cause
               or for any reason  other than for Cause,  and (ii)  Employee  for
               Good  Reason (as  defined  herein).  As used  herein,  "Permanent
               Disability"  shall mean Employee's  physical or mental incapacity
               to perform his usual duties with such condition  likely to remain
               continuously  and  permanently  as  reasonably  determined by the
               Board of Directors of Amen in good faith.

          c.   If  Employee's  employment  is  terminated  by Employee  for Good
               Reason or by Employer for any reason  other than Cause,  Employee
               shall be entitled to each of the following:

               i.   Employer   shall  pay  to  Employee  a   severance   benefit
                    consisting  of either but not both of: 1) a single  lump sum
                    cash payment equal to one year of Employee's  base salary as
                    in  effect  at  the  date  of  Employee's   termination   of
                    employment,  Such  severance  benefit shall be paid no later
                    than sixty (60) days  following  Employee's  termination  of
                    employment;  or, 2) 12-months of salary  continuation,  paid
                    semimonthly and at the same rate as in effect at the date of
                    Employee's  termination  of  employment.   The  decision  of
                    whether to pay a 12-month  lump sum or  12-months  of salary
                    continuance is at the sole discretion of Employer.

               ii.  Employee  shall be  entitled  to any  individual  bonuses or
                    individual incentive compensation under Employer's plans, or
                    any successor  annual incentive  compensation  plan, for the
                    year of Employee's  termination of employment  determined as
                    if Employee  had  remained  employed by the Employer for the
                    entire year.  Such amounts  shall be paid to Employee at the
                    time  that  such  amounts  are  paid to  similarly  situated
                    employees.

               iii. "Good  Reason"  shall mean a  termination  of  employment by
                    Employee  because of a material  breach by  Employer  of any
                    material   provision  of  this   Agreement   which   remains
                    uncorrected for sixty (60) days following  written notice of
                    such  breach  by  Employee  to   Employer,   provided   such
                    termination   occurs   within  sixty  (60)  days  after  the
                    expiration  of  the  notice  period;  or  A  termination  of
                    employment  by  Employee  within  six  (6)  months  after  a
                    material reduction in Employee's rank or responsibility when
                    accompanied  by a reduction  in  employee's  base salary and
                    bonus as outlined herein with Employer.

     10.  Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement  shall inure to and be binding
          upon  Employer  as well as any  successor  owner  of the  business  of
          Employer.  Neither  Employer nor Employee may transfer or assign their
          responsibilities  hereunder  without the prior written  consent of the
          other  party,  which  consent  shall not be  unreasonably  withheld or
