COMMITMENT LETTER 

	LENDER: 	ALBERTA TREASURY BRANCHES 
	 	 
	BORROWER: 	HEMISPHERE ENERGY CORPORATION

	1. 	
      AMOUNTS AND TYPES OF FACILITIES (each referred to as a
      “Facility”)

Facility #1 - Operating Loan
Facility (Revolving) — Cdn. $10,500,000.00 ($9,500,000.00 available upon
satisfaction of Conditions Precedent and $1,000,000.00 available upon
satisfaction of Conditions Precedent - PAB) 

	- 	Facility #1 is available by way of:
    
	 	 	 
	                   	- 	Prime-based loans in Canadian dollars 
		- 	Letters of Credit (to an aggregate maximum of
      $1,000,000.00) in Canadian dollars 
		- 	Corporate MasterCard (to a maximum of
      $100,000.00) 

	- 	
      Facility #1 is to be used to pay out in full all
      indebtedness and liability owing by Borrower to Canadian Western Bank, and
      thereafter, for the general operating purposes of Borrower including the
      purchase of assets from Pengrowth Energy Corporation (the “Pengrowth Atlee
      Buffalo Asset Acquisition” or PAB) as per the Letter of Intent dated May
      31, 2013 (the “PAB LOI”) 

	- 	Notwithstanding the amount of
      Facility #1, advances under Facility #1 will be limited to the amount
      equal to the lesser of: 
	 	 	 
	 	- 	the maximum principal amount of Facility #1;
      and 
	 	- 	the amount of the most recent Borrowing Base
      determined hereunder. 

From time to time, the Borrowing Base
shall be re-calculated by Lender upon receipt of each engineering report
required to be delivered hereunder and if Borrower fails to deliver any such
report then at any other time at Lender’s sole discretion. Lender shall notify
Borrower of each change in the amount of the Borrowing Base. In the event that
Lender re-calculates the Borrowing Base to be an amount that is less than the
Borrowings outstanding under Facility #1, Borrower shall repay the difference
between such Borrowings outstanding and the new Borrowing Base within 30 days of
receiving notice of the new Borrowing Base, and all rates and fees for Facility
#1 listed under the “Interest Rates and Prepayment” section hereof will
immediately upon receipt of that notice increase by 200 basis points until the
difference is fully paid whereupon all rates and fees for Facility #1 will
revert to those listed under the “Interest Rates and Prepayment”.. Lender
confirms that the Borrowing Base on the date hereof is $10,500,000.00. 

Other Facilities – Foreign Exchange, Interest Rate and
Commodity Derivatives 

	- 	
      At Borrower’s request, Lender may enter into foreign
      exchange forward contracts and/or interest rate and commodity derivatives
      with Borrower from time to time. Lender makes no commitment to enter into
      any such contract or derivative and may at any time in its sole discretion
      decline to enter into any such contract or derivative. Any Security
      Documents will also secure Borrower’s liability and obligations pursuant
      to any such contracts or derivatives.

	Hemisphere Energy Corporation 	September 19, 2013 
	Page 10

    dollars) under the relevant Facility. 
	 	 	 
	 	- 	Borrower shall monitor its Borrowings
      (including the face amount and maturity date of Letter of Credit) to

      by Lender under this agreement. Lender shall record the principal amount
      of each Borrowing and the payment of principal, interest and fees and all

      MISCELLANEOUS:

	 	(a) 	
      All legal and other costs and expenses incurred by Lender
      in respect of the Facilities, the Security Documents and other related
      matters will be paid or reimbursed by Borrower on demand by
  Lender.

	 	 	 
	 	(b) 	
      All Security Documents will be prepared by or under the
      supervision of Lender’s solicitors, unless Lender otherwise permits.
      Acceptance of this offer will authorize Lender to instruct Lender’s
      solicitors to prepare all necessary Security Documents and proceed with
      related matters.

	 	 	 
	 	(c) 	
      Lender, without restriction, may waive in writing the
      satisfaction, observance or performance of any of the provisions of this
      Commitment Letter. The obligations of a Guarantor (if any) will not be
      diminished, discharged or otherwise affected by or as a result of any such
      waiver, except to the extent that such waiver relates to an obligation of
      such Guarantor. Any waiver by Lender of the strict performance of any
      provision hereof will not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent
      default, and any partial exercise of any right or remedy by Lender shall
      not be deemed to affect any other right or remedy to which Lender may be
      entitled.

	 	 	 
	 	(d) 	
      Borrower shall reimburse Lender for any additional cost
      or reduction in income arising as a result of (i) the imposition of, or
      increase in, taxes on payments due to Lender hereunder (other than taxes
      on the overall net income of Lender), (ii) the imposition of, or increase
      in, any reserve or other similar requirement, (iii) the imposition of, or
      change in, any other condition affecting the Facilities imposed by any
      applicable law or the interpretation thereof.

	 	 	 
	 	(e) 	
      Lender is authorized but not obligated, at any time, to
      apply any credit balance, whether or not then due, to which Borrower or
      Guarantor is entitled on any account in any currency at any branch or
      office of Lender in or towards satisfaction of the obligations of Borrower
      or such Guarantor due to Lender under this agreement or any guarantee
      granted in support hereof, as applicable. Lender is authorized to use any
      such credit balance to buy such other currencies as may be necessary to
      effect such application.

	 	 	 
	 	(f) 	
      Words importing the singular will include the plural and
      vice versa, and words importing gender will include the masculine,
      feminine and neuter, and anything importing or referring to a person will
      include a body corporate and a partnership and any entity, in each case
      all as the context and the nature of the parties requires.

	 	 	 
	 	(g) 	
      Where more than one person is liable as Borrower (or as a
      Guarantor) for any obligation hereunder, then the liability of each such
      person for such obligation is joint and several with each other such
      person.

	 	 	 
	 	(h) 	
      If any portion of this agreement is held invalid or
      unenforceable, the remainder of this agreement will not be affected and
      will be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. In
      the event of a conflict between the provisions hereof and of any Security
      Document, the provisions hereof shall prevail to the extent of the
      conflict.

	 	 	 
	 	(i) 	
      Where the interest rate for a credit is based on Prime,
      the applicable rate on any day will depend on the Prime rate in effect on
      that day, as applicable. The statement by Lender as to Prime and as to the
      rate of interest applicable to a credit on any day will be binding and
      conclusive for all purposes. All interest rates specified are nominal
      annual rates. The

	Hemisphere Energy Corporation 	September 19, 2013 
	Page 12 	  

	 	(j) 	
      effective annual rate in any case will vary with payment
      frequency. All interest payable hereunder bears interest as well after as
      before maturity, default and judgment with interest on overdue interest at
      the applicable rate payable hereunder. To the extent permitted by law,
      Borrower waives the provisions of the Judgment Interest Act (Alberta).

	 	 	 
	 	(k) 	
      Any written communication which a party may wish to serve
      on any other party may be served personally (in the case of a body
      corporate, on any officer or director thereof) or by leaving the same at
      or couriering or mailing the same by registered mail to the Branch of
      Account (for Lender) or to the last known address (for Borrower or any
      Guarantor), and in the case of mailing will be deemed to have been
      received two (2) Business Days after mailing except in the case of postal
      disruption.

	 	 	 
	 	(l) 	
      Unless otherwise specified, references herein to “$” and
      “dollars” mean Canadian dollars.

	 	 	 
	 	(m) 	
      If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court in
      any jurisdiction with respect to this Agreement, it is necessary to
      convert into the currency of such jurisdiction (the “Judgment Currency”)
      any amount due hereunder in any currency other than the Judgment Currency,
      then conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the
      Business Day before the day on which judgment is given. For this purpose,
      rate of exchange means the rate at which Lender would, on the relevant
      date, be prepared to sell a similar amount of such currency against the
      Judgment Currency, in accordance with normal banking procedures. In the
      event that there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between
      the Business Day before the day on which judgment is given and the date of
      payment of the amount due, Borrower will, on the date of payment, pay such
      additional amounts as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid on
      such day is the amount in the Judgment Currency which, when converted at
      the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, is the amount then
      due under this Agreement in such other currency. Any additional amount due
      from Borrower under this paragraph will be due as a separate debt and
      shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other sums due in
      connection with this Agreement.

	 	 	 
	 	(n) 	
      Lender shall have the right to assign, sell or
      participate its rights and obligations in the Facilities or in any
      Borrowing thereunder, in whole or in part, to one or more persons,
      provided that the consent of Borrower shall be required if no default is
      then in existence, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or
      delayed.

	 	 	 
	 	(o) 	
      Borrower shall indemnify Lender against all losses,
      liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (including without limitation
      legal expenses on a solicitor and his own client basis) (i) incurred in
      connection with the entry into, performance or enforcement of this
      agreement, the use of the Facility proceeds or any breach by Borrower or
      any Guarantor of the terms hereof or any document related hereto, or (ii)
      rising out of or in respect of: (A) the release of any hazardous or toxic
      waste or other substance into the environment from any property of
      Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and (B) the remedial action (if any)
      taken by Lender in respect of any such release, contamination or
      pollution. This indemnity will survive the repayment or cancellation of
      any of the Facilities or any termination of this
  agreement.

	Hemisphere Energy Corporation 	September 19, 2013 
	Page 13	  

	 	(p) 	
      For certainty, the permission to create a Permitted
      Encumbrance shall not be construed as a subordination or postponement,
      express or implied, of Lender’s Security Documents to such Permitted
      Encumbrance.

	 	 	 
	 	(q) 	
      Each accounting term used hereunder, unless otherwise
      defined herein, has the meaning assigned to it under GAAP consistently
      applied. If there occurs a change in generally accepted accounting
      principles (an “Accounting Change”), including as a result of a conversion
      to International Financial Reporting Standards, and such change would
      result in a change (other than an immaterial change) in the calculation of
      any financial covenant, standard or term used hereunder, then at the
      request of Borrower or Lender, Borrower and Lender shall enter into
      negotiations to amend such provisions so as to reflect such Accounting
      Change with the result that the criteria for evaluating the financial
      condition of Borrower or any other party, as applicable, shall be the same
      after such Accounting Change, as if such Accounting Change had not
      occurred. If, however, within 30 days of the foregoing request by Borrower
      or Lender, Borrower and Lender have not reached agreement on such
      amendment, the method of calculation shall not be revised and all amounts
      to be determined thereunder shall be determined without giving effect to
      the Accounting Change.

	 	 	 
	 	(r) 	
      Borrower’s information, corporate or personal, may be
      subject to disclosure without its consent pursuant to provincial, federal,
      national or international laws as they apply to the product or service
      Borrower has with Lender or any third party acting on behalf of or
      contracting with Lender.

	 	 	 
	 	(s) 	
      Borrower acknowledges that the terms of this agreement
      are confidential, and Borrower agrees not to disclose the terms hereof or
      provide a copy hereof to any person without the prior written consent of
      Lender, unless and to the extent required by applicable law.

	 	 	 
	 	(t) 	
      Time shall be of the essence in all provisions of this
      agreement.

	 	 	 
	 	(u) 	
      This agreement may be executed in counterpart.

	 	 	 
	 	(v) 	
      This agreement shall be governed by the laws of
      Alberta.
