          Base Salary shall be payable in equal, consecutive monthly installments.
Payment           of the Salary shall be subject to the customary withholding tax and
other           employment taxes as required, with respect to compensation paid by a

inflation as measured           by the federal Consumer Price Index (“CPI”), or
(ii) Six Thousand           Dollars ($6,000) per year, whichever is greater. To determine
the amount of the           increase in Base Salary using the CPI method, the Base Salary
shall be           multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the CPI most
recently           published on the month immediately preceding the date of the Base
Salary           adjustment, and the denominator of which shall be the CPI in effect on
the last           day in June of the immediately preceding year. The term “Base
Salary”          as used herein shall refer to the Base Salary, as adjusted.  

	 	b) 	Bonus.
In addition to the Base Salary, the Company shall pay Employee           such Bonus or
Bonuses as the Board of Directors shall determine in their sole           discretion.

be assigned to him by the Board of Directors.

               Disability:   Subject to any state or federal law or regulation governing
               employees with disabilities, the Company may terminate this Agreement and
               Employee’s employment upon the Disability of Employee by giving Employee
               ten (10) days prior written notice of termination. For purposes of this Section

               or other physical or mental incapacity, has been substantially unable to perform
               his duties under this Agreement for a continuous period of three (3) months.

          	 	d) 	
               Termination by Company: 

               

	 	i.  	With
Cause:   Employee’s employment may be terminated by the Company “with
cause,”effective upon delivery of written notice to                Employee
given at any time (without any necessity for prior notice) if any of                the
following shall occur: (1) any action by Employee which would be grounds for
               termination under applicable law; (2) any material breach of Employee’s
               obligations under this Agreement other than any such breach resulting from
               illness or incapacity or (3) any material acts or events which inhibit
Employee                from fully performing his responsibilities to the Company in good
faith. Cause                shall be limited to (i) acts and omissions that take place
during the pendency                of this Agreement; or (ii) acts or omissions that have
taken place prior to this                Agreement but were not known to the Board of
Directors as of the date of this                Agreement.  

3 

	 	ii. 	Without
Cause:   Employee’s employment may be terminated by the           Company “without
cause” (for any reason or no reason at all) at any           time by giving Employee
fifteen (15) days prior written notice of termination,           which termination shall
be effective on the fifteenth (15th) day           following such notice. If
Employee’s employment under this Agreement is so           terminated, the Company
shall make payment in accord with Section 9 below.  

	 	e) 	Termination
by Employee:  

	 	i. 	For
Good Reason:   Employee may terminate his employment hereunder for Good
          Reason by giving the Company fifteen (15) days prior written notice, which
          termination shall be effective on the fifteenth (15th) day following
          such notice. “Good Reason” means (a) the diminution in any material
          respect of the Employee’s duties, responsibilities, status, positions or
          authority, excluding for this purpose an isolated, insubstantial and
inadvertent           action not taken in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company
promptly           after receipt of notice thereof given by Employee, (b) a material
breach by the           Company of this Agreement or any other written agreements with
the Employee upon           written notice delivered to the Company by the Employee
within thirty (30) days           of such breach, which is not cured by the Company
within thirty (30) days of           receipt of such notice, or (c) the Company requiring
the Employee to relocate           his residence or the Company relocating its office,
without the Employee’s           consent, to a location more than twenty-five (25)
miles from the office’s           present location.  

	 	ii. 	For
No Reason:   Employee may terminate his employment hereunder by giving           the
Company fifteen (15) days prior written notice, which termination shall be
          effective on the fifteenth (15th) day following such notice. The
          Company shall not be obligated to compensate Employee, his estate or
          representatives after any such termination.  

9.          Payment Upon
Termination 

	 	a) 	Upon
termination of Employee’s employment, the Company shall pay to           Employee
within 10 days after termination an amount equal to the sum of           (1) Employee’s
Base Salary accrued, but unpaid, as of the date of           termination; and (2)
un-reimbursed expenses accrued to the date of termination.           The Company shall
also pay to Employee three (3) months salary. The additional           three (3) months
salary shall be paid over a three (3) month period in           accordance with the
Company’s standard payroll practices and be subject to           the usual required
withholdings; however, in no event shall amounts be paid           later than two and
one-half (21⁄2) months following the close of the year           in which the
Employee terminates employment. If payment is scheduled to extend           beyond two
and one-half (21⁄2) months following the close of the year in           which
Employee’s termination occurs, the Company will accelerate such           payment so
as to exempt the payment as a short-term deferral in accordance with           Internal
Revenue Code Section 409A and corresponding treasury regulations.  

4 

	 	b) 	Upon
termination of employment for any reason whatsoever, the Company will           provide
the Company’s stock transfer agent with letters allowing employee           to
remove the restrictive legend from the 186,100 common shares held by           Employee.
Said letter shall be issued concurrent with the termination date and           deem the
effective date to be 90 days after the termination date, or no later           than
concurrent with filing the Company’s Form 10-Q, if termination occurs
          within the period from May 30 to January 15, and concurrent with the filing of
          the Company’s Form 10-K, if termination occurs between January 15 and May
          29.  

	 	c) 	Upon
termination of employment for any reason whatsoever, if Employee elects           COBRA
coverage, Employee shall continue to receive following Employee’s           Date of
Termination the medical, prescription drug, dental and/or health care           flexible
spending account coverage Employee had in place before Employee’s           Date of
Termination (or generally comparable coverage) pursuant to           Employee’s
COBRA elections. This coverage will be for Employee and, where           applicable,
Employee’s spouse or domestic partner and dependents, under           similar rights
afforded to employees of the Company generally. During the           remainder of the
Initial Term or Renewal Term (as applicable) the Company will           reimburse the
Employee for the costs of COBRA to the extent and in the amount           the Company
would have paid for the Employee’s medical, prescription drug,           dental
and/or health care flexible spending account coverage (or generally           comparable
coverage) were the Employee still employed. After the end of Initial           Term or
Renewal Term (as applicable), the Employee shall bear the full costs of           any
COBRA coverage.  

10.          Confidential
Information 

During the term of this Agreement,
the Employee will have access to certain confidential information and materials, including
but not limited to oil and gas property and lease information, originated by the Company
or disclosed to the Company by others under agreements to hold the same confidential
(“Confidential Information”). Confidential Information further includes,
but is not limited to, all technical, engineering, property and lease information,
financial, business practices, customer lists, customer identities and commercial
information heretofore or hereafter disclosed or transmitted by the Company in any form
and manner to the Employee or otherwise received by the Employee, whether orally or in
writing. Employee acknowledges that Employee shall not either directly or indirectly use,
disclose or communicate to any person or entity any Confidential Information for any
purpose at all whether during or after the term of this Agreement, except to the extent
any such information becomes generally known to the public through no fault of Employee.
Furthermore, the terms of this provision shall survive the Initial Term and any Renewal
Term of this Agreement. 

11. Option Grants  

Company and Employee agree to take
such necessary steps required to effect the following changes to the options that were
previously granted to the Employee by the Company: 

5 

	 	a) 	The
vesting date of all options previously granted to Employee shall be reduced           to
five (5) years from the date of grant, with the exception of such options           which
were granted in July of 2008.  

	 	b) 	The
vesting date of all options granted in July of 2008 shall be reduced to           March
1, 2012, and, without regard to the current vesting schedule, will vest on           a
pro-rata basis quarterly from March 1, 2009 until March 1, 2012.  

12.          Miscellaneous 

	 	a) 	Entire
Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between           the Company

	 	f) 	Remedies.
Employee acknowledges that any failure to carry out an           obligation under this
Agreement, or a breach by the Employee of any provision           herein, will constitute
immediate and irreparable damage to the Company, which           cannot be fully and
adequately compensated in money damages and which will           warrant preliminary and
other injunctive relief, an order for specific           performance, and other equitable

remain in full force and effect regardless of such declaration.

courts in Arapahoe County in the State of Colorado or           of the Federal Courts of
Colorado. The parties to this Agreement agree that any           breach of any term or
condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a breach           occurring in the

performed in the State of Colorado, and irrevocably and expressly           agree to
submit to the jurisdiction of those courts for the purpose of resolving           any

          this Agreement, or any judgment entered by any court in respect hereof brought
          in the State of Colorado, and further irrevocably waive any claim that any
suit,           action or proceeding brought in the State of Colorado has been brought in
an           inconvenient forum.  

	 	i) 	Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, and           as so executed
shall constitute one Agreement, binding on all parties hereto,           notwithstanding

counterpart. Facsimile signatures are acceptable.

               Employee’s employment upon the Disability of Employee by giving Employee
               ten (10) days prior written notice of termination. For purposes of this Section
               8(c) “Disability” shall mean that Employee, due to illness, accident,
               or other physical or mental incapacity, has been substantially unable to perform
               his duties under this Agreement for a continuous period of three (3) months.
               Disability shall be interpreted in accordance with the Company’s long
               term disability plan. In the event Employee is terminated under this Section
               8(c), Company will pay Employee all previously earned, accrued and unpaid wages. 

               

          	 	d) 	
               Termination by Company: 

               

	 	i.  	With
Cause:   Employee’s employment may be terminated by the Company “with
cause,”effective upon delivery of written notice to                Employee
given at any time (without any necessity for prior notice) if any of                the
following shall occur: (1) any action by Employee which would be grounds for
               termination under applicable law; (2) any material breach of Employee’s
               obligations under this Agreement other than any such breach resulting from
               illness or incapacity or (3) any material acts or events which inhibit
Employee                from fully performing his responsibilities to the Company in good
faith. Cause                shall be limited to (i) acts and omissions that take place
during the pendency                of this Agreement; or (ii) acts or omissions that have
taken place prior to this                Agreement but were not known to the Board of
Directors as of the date of this                Agreement.  

3 

	 	ii. 	Without
Cause:   Employee’s employment may be terminated by the           Company “without
cause” (for any reason or no reason at all) at any           time by giving Employee
fifteen (15) days prior written notice of termination,           which termination shall
be effective on the fifteenth (15th) day           following such notice. If
Employee’s employment under this Agreement is so           terminated, the Company
shall make payment in accord with Section 9 below.  

	 	e) 	Termination
by Employee:  

	 	i. 	For
Good Reason:   Employee may terminate his employment hereunder for Good
          Reason by giving the Company fifteen (15) days prior written notice, which
          termination shall be effective on the fifteenth (15th) day following
          such notice. “Good Reason” means (a) the diminution in any material
          respect of the Employee’s duties, responsibilities, status, positions or
          authority, excluding for this purpose an isolated, insubstantial and
inadvertent           action not taken in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company
promptly           after receipt of notice thereof given by Employee, (b) a material
breach by the           Company of this Agreement or any other written agreements with
the Employee upon           written notice delivered to the Company by the Employee
within thirty (30) days           of such breach, which is not cured by the Company
within thirty (30) days of           receipt of such notice, or (c) the Company requiring
the Employee to relocate           his residence or the Company relocating its office,
without the Employee’s           consent, to a location more than twenty-five (25)
miles from the office’s           present location.  

	 	ii. 	For
No Reason:   Employee may terminate his employment hereunder by giving           the
Company fifteen (15) days prior written notice, which termination shall be
          effective on the fifteenth (15th) day following such notice. The
          Company shall not be obligated to compensate Employee, his estate or
          representatives after any such termination.  

9.          Payment Upon
Termination 

	 	a) 	Upon
termination of Employee’s employment, the Company shall pay to           Employee
within 10 days after termination an amount equal to the sum of           (1) Employee’s
Base Salary accrued, but unpaid, as of the date of           termination; and (2)
un-reimbursed expenses accrued to the date of termination.           The Company shall
also pay to Employee three (3) months salary. The additional           three (3) months
salary shall be paid over a three (3) month period in           accordance with the
Company’s standard payroll practices and be subject to           the usual required
withholdings; however, in no event shall amounts be paid           later than two and
one-half (21⁄2) months following the close of the year           in which the
Employee terminates employment. If payment is scheduled to extend           beyond two
and one-half (21⁄2) months following the close of the year in           which
Employee’s termination occurs, the Company will accelerate such           payment so
as to exempt the payment as a short-term deferral in accordance with           Internal
Revenue Code Section 409A and corresponding treasury regulations.  

4 

	 	b) 	Upon
termination of employment for any reason whatsoever, the Company will           provide
the Company’s stock transfer agent with letters allowing employee           to
remove the restrictive legend from the 172,069 common shares held by           Employee.
Said letter shall be issued concurrent with the termination date and           deem the
effective date to be 90 days after the termination date, or no later           than
concurrent with filing the Company’s Form 10-Q, if termination occurs
          within the period from May 30 to January 15, and concurrent with the filing of
          the Company’s Form 10-K, if termination occurs between January 15 and May
          29.  

	 	c) 	Upon
termination of employment for any reason whatsoever, if Employee elects           COBRA
coverage, Employee shall continue to receive following Employee’s           Date of
Termination the medical, prescription drug, dental and/or health care           flexible
spending account coverage Employee had in place before Employee’s           Date of
Termination (or generally comparable coverage) pursuant to           Employee’s
COBRA elections. This coverage will be for Employee and, where           applicable,
Employee’s spouse or domestic partner and dependents, under           similar rights
afforded to employees of the Company generally. During the           remainder of the
Initial Term or Renewal Term (as applicable) the Company will           reimburse the
Employee for the costs of COBRA to the extent and in the amount           the Company
would have paid for the Employee’s medical, prescription drug,           dental
and/or health care flexible spending account coverage (or generally           comparable
coverage) were the Employee still employed. After the end of Initial           Term or
Renewal Term (as applicable), the Employee shall bear the full costs of           any
COBRA coverage.  

10.          Confidential
Information 

During the term of this Agreement,
the Employee will have access to certain confidential information and materials, including
but not limited to oil and gas property and lease information, originated by the Company
or disclosed to the Company by others under agreements to hold the same confidential
(“Confidential Information”). Confidential Information further includes,
but is not limited to, all technical, engineering, property and lease information,
financial, business practices, customer lists, customer identities and commercial
information heretofore or hereafter disclosed or transmitted by the Company in any form
and manner to the Employee or otherwise received by the Employee, whether orally or in
writing. Employee acknowledges that Employee shall not either directly or indirectly use,
disclose or communicate to any person or entity any Confidential Information for any
purpose at all whether during or after the term of this Agreement, except to the extent
any such information becomes generally known to the public through no fault of Employee.
Furthermore, the terms of this provision shall survive the Initial Term and any Renewal
Term of this Agreement.

such necessary steps required to effect the following changes to the options that were
previously granted to the Employee by the Company: 

5 

	 	a) 	The
vesting date of all options previously granted to Employee shall be reduced           to

	 	b) 	The
vesting date of all options granted in July of 2008 shall be reduced to           March

pro-rata basis quarterly from March 1, 2009 until March 1, 2012.  

12.          Miscellaneous 

	 	a) 	Entire
Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between           the Company
and the Employee, regarding employment of the Employee and           supersedes and
replaces all prior agreements and understandings. This Agreement           shall not be
modified except by written agreement signed by both parties.  

	 	b) 	Headings.
The subject headings of the articles and sections contained in           this Agreement

	 	f) 	Remedies.
Employee acknowledges that any failure to carry out an           obligation under this
Agreement, or a breach by the Employee of any provision           herein, will constitute
immediate and irreparable damage to the Company, which           cannot be fully and
adequately compensated in money damages and which will           warrant preliminary and
other injunctive relief, an order for specific           performance, and other equitable
relief. Employee also understands that other           actions may be taken and remedies
enforced against the Employee, including           termination of any other agreements
the Employee may have with the Company.  

6 

	 	g) 	Waiver
and Severability. No waiver by either party of any breach or           default hereof
by the other shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or           succeeding
breach or default hereof, and no waiver shall be operative unless the           same
shall be in writing. Should any provision of this Agreement be declared           invalid
by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions hereof           shall
remain in full force and effect regardless of such declaration.  

	 	h) 	Jurisdiction.
This Agreement shall be subject to the exclusive           jurisdiction of either the
courts in Arapahoe County in the State of Colorado or           of the Federal Courts of
Colorado. The parties to this Agreement agree that any           breach of any term or
condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a breach           occurring in the
State of Colorado by virtue of a failure to perform an act           required to be
performed in the State of Colorado, and irrevocably and expressly           agree to
submit to the jurisdiction of those courts for the purpose of resolving           any
disputes among the parties relating to this Agreement or the transactions
          contemplated hereby. The parties irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent
          permitted by law, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the
          laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to
          this Agreement, or any judgment entered by any court in respect hereof brought
          in the State of Colorado, and further irrevocably waive any claim that any
suit,           action or proceeding brought in the State of Colorado has been brought in
an           inconvenient forum.  

	 	i) 	Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, and           as so executed
shall constitute one Agreement, binding on all parties hereto,           notwithstanding
that all parties are not signatory as to any other original or           the same
counterpart. Facsimile signatures are acceptable.  

	 	j) 	Governing
Law. This Agreement has been entered into and shall be           construed and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado,           without
