also known as (“the parties”)

WHEREAS:

A)  
DRLLC has located and controls a 100% interest in approximately 640 acres of prime mineral lease properties and approximately 30 BLM mineral lease claims (collectively the “Asset”), all located in the west section of the new Long Canyon Gold Trend area of Nevada, for the purpose of exploration for gold and silver mineralization deposits. These properties are strategically located next to major exploration projects by other mining companies in this area called the ‘Long Canyon Gold Trend’ of east central Nevada; and all claims located in:

Range 64E., Township 33N., Meridian MDB&M
 
These Properties are free and clear of any encumbrances.

B)  
FERGUSON is entering into an Agreement (the “Agreement”) with August Energy Corp.(“August”), a Delaware corporation publicly traded on the OTC Pinksheet Market; and

C)  
FERGUSON will assign this Agreement or part thereof to August; and

D)  
FERGUSON desires to acquire the Asset from DRLLC and DRLLC desires to sell the Asset to FERGUSON in exchange for USD $30,000 cash and 500,000 Convertible Preferred Series “B” shares of the capital stock of August
(the ”Preferred Shares”); and

E)  
The Preferred Shares Series “B” are convertible to Common shares of August on a One Preferred Share for Ten Common Shares (1:10) basis, provided however that they are convertible only on/or after twelve (12) months from First Day of Trading on the OTC-QB unless otherwise agreed upon by both parties to this agreement in writing.

 
 

 

IT IS HEREBY AGREED THAT:

a)  
FERGUSON will pay to DRLLC a total of $30,000 USD cash (the “Purchase Price”) within15 days of FERGUSON executing the Exchange Agreement with August. DRLLC will use these funds to complete the ‘full staking’ and acquisition of the Asset in the name of DRLLC with a legal stamped certification number from the Elko, Nevada County Recorder’s office which provides legal ownership standing in the State of Nevada for a 90 day period from the date of such staking notice to the County on each mineral lease claim.

b)  
 DRLLC agrees to sell, assign, transfer and convey by this agreement to FERGUSON 100% interest in the Asset subject to DRLLC holding a 3% NSR (Net Smelter Royalty) on these claims at all times.

FERGUSON will be required to pay for the BLM/State of Nevada registration fees to properly hold and control the Asset by a payment of $189 per claim to the BLM and $70 per claim to the State no later than June 10th 2011 which is the required 90 day due date from the date the claims were staked and filed with the Elko County Recorder’s office to keep these claims in good standing with both agencies. If these payments are not made, interest in the property reverts back to the BLM. FERGUSON can pay these fees anytime to DRLLC.

d)  
DRLLC will make these filings and payments for Fess as given in c) in the event FERGUSON provides   these necessary funds no later than June 5th 2011 so DRLLC has time to express mail a check to the BLM and the State to keep these claims in good standing for FERGUSON.

e)  
FERGUSON will perform an exploration program on the Asset during 2011.

f)

p)  
In the event the property values from exploration work define a potential mineable ore body which will require a major ‘feasibility study’ including environmental studies, it shall be the responsibility of FERGUSON to pay for all of the costs of such studies to perfect this ‘feasibility study’ to define a mining plan.
