THIS RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the 10th day of July, 2008, by and between Nitro Petroleum Incorporated, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and Gunther J. Weisbrich (herein referred to as the “Participant”);

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Company has previously adopted the Nitro Petroleum Incorporated 2008 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”); and

WHEREAS, the Company has awarded the Participant 50,000 Shares under the Plan subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises and covenants herein contained, the Participant and the Company agree as follows:

1.      The Plan. The Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A, is incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof for all purposes, and when taken with this Agreement shall govern the rights of the Participant and the Company with respect to the Award (as defined below). Any capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement have the same meanings given to them in the Plan.

2.         Grant of Award. The Company hereby grants to the Participant an award (the “Award”) of 50,000 Shares on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan.

(a)       Escrow of Shares. A book-entry registration representing the Shares subject to the Award (the “Restricted Stock”) shall be issued in the name of the Participant and shall be escrowed subject to removal of the restrictions placed thereon or forfeiture pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(b)       Vesting. The Shares of Restricted Stock will vest based on the Participant’s continuous employment with the Company, a Subsidiary or Affiliated Entity at the vesting dates specified below (the “Vesting Dates”). Once vested pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Restricted Stock shall be deemed “Vested Stock.” Participant shall be entitled, subject to the applicable provisions of this Award Agreement having been satisfied to receive on or after the applicable Vesting Date, on a cumulative basis, the number of shares of Common Stock determined by multiplying the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Award by the designated percentages set forth as follows:  

(c)       Voting Rights and Dividends. The Participant shall have the voting rights attributable to the Shares of Restricted Stock issued under this Award. Any dividends declared and paid by the Company with respect to Shares of Restricted Stock (“Accrued Dividends”) shall not be paid to the Participant until such Restricted Stock becomes Vested Stock. Such Accrued Dividends shall be held by the Company as a general obligation and paid to the Participant at the time the underlying Restricted Stock becomes Vested Stock.

(d)       Vested Stock - Removal of Restrictions. Upon Restricted Stock becoming Vested Stock, all restrictions shall be removed from the book-entry registration representing such Stock and the Secretary of the Company shall deliver to the Participant certificates or a direct registration statement for the book-entry registration representing such Vested Stock free and clear of all restrictions, except for any applicable securities laws restrictions. The Company shall pay, within 30 days of the date the Restricted Stock becomes Vested Stock, the amount of Accrued Dividends attributed to such Vested Stock without interest thereon.

(e)       Termination of Employment. Restricted Stock that does not become Vested Stock pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be forfeited and the Participant shall have no future interest therein of any kind whatsoever. In the event the Participant’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary terminates for any reason other than death or Disability, then any remaining shares of Restricted Stock which have not yet vested (including any Accrued Dividends) shall be forfeited. In the event the Participant terminates employment with the Company or a Subsidiary due to death or Disability, the Committee may, in its sole discretion provide that all, none or a portion of the Participant’s Restricted Stock will become Vested Stock.

4.         Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, all Restricted Stock shall become Vested Stock and the Company shall deliver to the Participant certificates representing the Vested Stock free and clear of all restrictions, except for any applicable securities law restrictions, together with any Accrued Dividends attributable to such Vested Stock without interest thereon.

5.         Acceptance of Award Terms. This Agreement must be executed and returned to Nitro Petroleum Incorporated within 60 days of the date the Participant received this Agreement. Failure to return this Agreement within this 60-day period will result in forfeiture of any unvested portion of this Award.
