        THIS
AGREEMENT dated effective November 1, 2000, is by and between PEASE OIL
AND GAS COMPANY, a Nevada corporation (“Company”) and the
undersigned, each of which is a holder of the Company’s Series B 5% PIK
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (each holder is referred to herein as a
“Holder” and all the holders are referred together as the
“Holders”). 

        This
Agreement is made with reference to the following agreed facts: 

        A.
The names of the Holders and the number of shares of the Company’s Series B
5% PIK Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B
Preferred”) owned by each is set forth on Schedule 1 attached
hereto. 

        B.
Pursuant to an "Agreement Not to Sell or Convert Securities," dated effective
May 24, 1999 (the "Lock-Up Agreement"), the Company and the Holders agreed,
among other things, that no Holder would convert Series B Preferred into Company
common stock and that the dividends on the Series B Preferred shall be deferred
during the time when the Company sought to complete a merger with Carpatsky
Petroleum Inc. ("CPI").

        C.
Under an “Exchange Agreement and Irrevocable Proxy,” dated on various
dates in August 1999, each Holder of Series B Preferred agreed, among other
things, to: (i) exchange all outstanding Series B Preferred for common stock of
the Company on or before the date of completion of the merger with CPI, (ii) to
vote to approve the merger with CPI and related matters, and (iii) that the
Lock-Up Agreement was to remain in full force and effect until the later of
closing or termination of the merger with CPI, or November 15, 1999. The Company
has not paid or accrued dividends on the Series B Preferred since September 1,
1999. 

        D.
The Company and the Holders believe that it is in the best interest of the
Company to terminate the Merger Agreement with CPI, subject to the matters set
forth in this Agreement.

PREFERRED
STOCK SURRENDER AGREEMENT

        THIS
AGREEMENT dated effective November 1, 2000, is by and between PEASE OIL AND
GAS COMPANY, a Nevada corporation (“Company”) and the undersigned,
each of which is a holder of the Company’s Series B 5% PIK Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Stock (each holder is referred to herein as a
“Holder” and all the holders are referred together as the
“Holders”). 

        This
Agreement is made with reference to the following agreed facts: 

        A.
The names of the Holders and the number of shares of the Company’s Series B
5% PIK Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B
Preferred”) owned by each is set forth on Schedule 1 attached
hereto. 

        B.
Pursuant to an "Agreement Not to Sell or Convert Securities," dated effective
May 24, 1999 (the "Lock-Up Agreement"), the Company and the Holders agreed,
among other things, that no Holder would convert Series B Preferred into Company
common stock and that the dividends on the Series B Preferred shall be deferred
during the time when the Company sought to complete a merger with Carpatsky
Petroleum Inc. ("CPI").

        C.
Under an “Exchange Agreement and Irrevocable Proxy,” dated on various
dates in August 1999, each Holder of Series B Preferred agreed, among other
things, to: (i) exchange all outstanding Series B Preferred for common stock of
the Company on or before the date of completion of the merger with CPI, (ii) to
vote to approve the merger with CPI and related matters, and (iii) that the
Lock-Up Agreement was to remain in full force and effect until the later of
closing or termination of the merger with CPI, or November 15, 1999. The Company
has not paid or accrued dividends on the Series B Preferred since September 1,
1999. 

        D.
The Company and the Holders believe that it is in the best interest of the
Company to terminate the Merger Agreement with CPI, subject to the matters set
forth in this Agreement.

        E.
The Company and each of the Holders have agreed that until this Agreement is
signed by the parties, the Holders shall be precluded from converting or
transferring any of their Series B Preferred. 

        NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective covenants
and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged and confirmed, the
Company and the Holders hereto agree as follows: 

        
1. Exchange Series B Preferred. On or before October 31, 2000 (the
“Closing Date”), each Holder shall surrender all certificates
representing its Series B Preferred, together with all other dividend rights,
conversion rights, voting rights or other rights which may be applicable to the
Series B Preferred, to the Company. In exchange for surrender of the Series B
Preferred, the Company shall, on the Closing Date, pay to each Holder the sum
set forth on Schedule 1 and issue and deliver to each
Holder a warrant to purchase that number of shares of the Company’s common
stock set forth on Schedule 1 (the “Warrants”) to
this Agreement. 

        
2. Company Warrants. Each Warrant issued to a Holder shall be in a
form, and shall represent the rights, terms and conditions applicable to the
purchase of Company common stock as the form of Warrant attached hereto as
Exhibit B and incorporated herein by reference.

        
3. Termination of Certain Rights. Upon completion of the exchange on
the Closing Date, the rights and privileges of the Holders, as described in the
Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement dated effective December 31, 1997 and the
Certificate of Designation of Series B 5% PIK Cumulative Convertible Preferred
Stock, as amended, as filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada December 31,
1997, which designated a total of 145,300 shares of the Company’s Series B
Preferred and set forth the rights and privileges applicable thereto (the
“Series B Preferred Designation”) shall be terminated. Following the
exchange, Holders’ rights as security holders of the Company shall solely
as holders of the Warrants, and not as holders of preferred stock of any class. 

        
4. Agreement Not to Sell or Convert Series B Preferred. Each Holder
agrees that pending the Closing Date, as described above, the Holder shall not
convert or seek to convert the Series B Preferred held by Holder into Company
common stock. Further, each Holder agrees that Holder will not sell or transfer,
including making any short sale or similar transaction, any shares of the
Company’s Series B Preferred or the Company’s common stock, either
publicly or privately. If the Closing Date has not occurred by December 15,
2000, then any Holder may, upon 15 days prior written notice delivered to the
Company, sell or transfer Series B Preferred stock held by it, or seek to
convert Holder’s Series B Preferred in accordance with the conversion
rights applicable to Series B Preferred. 

        
5. No Further Dividends on Series B Preferred. Provided that the
Closing Date occurs on or before December 15, 2000, then all unpaid dividends on
the Series B Preferred shall be waived by all of the Holders and the Company
shall have no obligation to pay any Holder any unpaid dividends on the Series B
Preferred. If the Closing Date has not occurred by December 15, 2000, then the
Company shall be obligated to the Holders only to pay dividends on the Series B
Preferred, at the rate described in the Series B Designation, from October 31,
2000 through the earlier of the date on which the Series B Preferred is (i)
converted into Company common stock, or (ii) redeemed by the Company. All other
unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred, whether or not accrued or declared,
are hereby waived by the Holders.

represents and warrants to the Holders as follows:
