F.	In anticipation of the transaction hereon, HCN accepted 1,859,879 shares of unregistered DUMA common stock at market value as full payment for DUMA’s indebtedness to HCN in the amount of $3,589,567.

G.	Prior to signing of this definitive agreement it is required that a 3rd party potential resource estimate be received from Netherland Sewell and Associates.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1.3          Consideration.

(b)        If the outstanding shares of DUMA Common Stock are changed into a different number or class of shares by reason of any stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization, or other similar transaction, then the number of shares of Common Stock shall be appropriately adjusted.

(c)        No fractional shares of DUMA Common Stock shall be issued in connection with this Agreement, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares shall be issued.

(d)            In connection with the exchange of the rights for common stock, DUMA will issue to the RIGHTS HOLDERS 22,410,000 restricted shares of DUMA common stock

Netherland, Sewell & Associates Inc. has assigned 1.1 billion barrels of unrisked potential in-place oil resources in the Oponono Prospect located in a portion Hydrocarb’s concession in the Owambo Basin of Northern Namibia. Unrisked potential recoverable oil resources from this single prospect range from 46 to 295 million barrels of oil (MMBO). Approximately 15% of Hydrocarb’s 21,300 square km (5.3 million acre) concession has been explored with 2D seismic data. The remaining 85% of the concession is currently unexplored with plans for future regional 2D seismic exploration. Should a commercial oil discovery be made in the future, with an unrisked average recoverable resource estimate of 170 MMBO and with the expected number of common stock outstanding at the closing of this Agreement, then this would be equivalent to 2.74 barrels of unrisked recoverable resource oil per share with no value being placed on the 85% of the concession still to be explored.
