EXHIBIT A TO SIXTH AMENDMENT
 
TEKOIL & GAS CORPORATION
 
SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED
SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT
 
This Agreement supersedes and replaces a certain Amended and Restated Subscription Agreement executed by the parties hereto as of April 12, 2007.
 
THE COMMON STOCK HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE COMMON STOCK MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SUCH ACT OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SUCH ACT.
 
1. Subscription. Subscriber (as identified on the signature page attached hereto) hereby subscribes for and agrees to be issued Nine Million (9,000,000) shares of Common Stock (the “Common Stock”) of Tekoil & Gas Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), all as consideration under the “PSA” described below. The Common Stock is also referred to herein as the “Securities”.
 
2. Consideration. The Securities constitute a portion of the consideration payable by the Company to Subscriber under a certain Purchase and Sale Agreement dated November ___, 2006, and as amended December 29, 2006, in connection with the acquisition and sale of certain assets described therein, as amended through the date hereof (referred to together as the “PSA”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings ascribed to them in the PSA.
 
3. Subscriber's Representations and Warranties. Subscriber represents, warrants, acknowledges and agrees that:
 
(a) Subscriber is a resident of the state indicated on the signature page hereof, is legally competent to execute this Second Amended and Restated Subscription Agreement, and:
 
(i) if Subscriber is an individual, has his or her principal residence in such state;
 
(ii) if Subscriber is a corporation, partnership, trust, limited liability company or other form of business organization, has its principal office in such state; or
 
(iii) if Subscriber is a corporation, partnership, trust, limited liability company or other form of business organization, Subscriber has not been organized for the specific purpose of acquiring the Common Stock.
 
(b) Subscriber has not been offered the Securities by any form of general solicitation or general advertising, including but not limited to any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, or any seminar or meeting whose attendees have been invited by any general solicitation or general advertising.
 

 
(c) Subscriber has had access during the course of this transaction and prior to the issuance of the Securities to all information necessary to enable Subscriber to evaluate the merits and risks of a prospective investment in the Company (including, without limitation, the periodic and other reports filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), and Subscriber has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the officers and directors of the Company, or a person or persons acting on its behalf, concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and all questions raised by Subscriber have been answered to the full satisfaction of Subscriber.
 
(d) There are substantial restrictions on the transferability of the Securities and, accordingly, Subscriber will need to bear the economic risk of the investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time and will not be readily able to liquidate the investment in case of an emergency.
 
(e) Subscriber understands that the Company has a limited financial or operating history, each of the Securities is a speculative investment which involves a high degree of financial risk, and there is no assurance of any economic, income or tax benefit from such investment.
 
(f) In making this investment, Subscriber is relying solely upon the advice of Subscriber's personal tax advisors, and not the Company nor its advisers and counsel, with respect to the tax aspects of an investment in the Securities.
 
(g) If Subscriber is a corporation, partnership, trust, limited liability company, employee benefit plan or other entity, Subscriber is authorized and qualified to become a stockholder of the Company and the person signing this Second Amended and Restated Subscription Agreement on behalf of such entity has been duly authorized by such entity to do so.
 
(h) No representations or warranties have been made to Subscriber by the Company or any officer, employee, agent or affiliate of the Company (other than those set forth in the PSA), and Subscriber's investment decision has been based solely upon Subscriber's independent evaluation and due diligence, if any, of the Company.
 
(i) Subscriber is experienced in evaluating and investing in early stage companies such as the Company. Subscriber is experienced in business matters and regards himself, herself or itself as a sophisticated investor able to evaluate investment and financial information and to choose independent professional advisors to assist in such evaluation and, either alone or with such advisers, has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that Subscriber is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities and has the capacity to protect Subscriber’s own interests in connection with Subscriber’s proposed investment in the Securities.
 
(j) Subscriber’s aggregate commitments to investments that are not readily marketable are not disproportionate to Subscriber’s net worth and an investment in the Securities will not cause such aggregate commitment to become excessive. Subscriber has adequate means of providing for Subscriber’s current needs and possible personal and family contingencies. Subscriber will not be readily able to liquidate the investment in the case of an emergency, and Subscriber has no need for liquidity in this investment in the Company.
 
(k) Subscriber has a preexisting business or personal relationship with the Company or with one or more of its officers or directors. Except for Subscriber’s intention to distribute the shares (or cause them to be issued directly) to its members, pro-rata, on condition that they make the representations, warranties and agreements herein provided in favor of Company, Subscriber is acquiring the Securities solely for Subscriber’s own account for investment (and not for the account of any other person), and not with a view to, or for, any resale, distribution, fractionalization or other transfer thereof, and Subscriber has no present plans to enter into any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement for any such resale, distribution, fractionalization or transfer.

4. Representations and Warranties Concerning Suitability and Accredited Investor Status. Subscriber hereby represents and warrants to the Company that Subscriber is an “Accredited Investor” (as defined under Regulation D as promulgated and amended by the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act) on the basis of the representations made by Subscriber to the Company below. Subscriber hereby represents and warrants and agrees that:
 
(a) Subscriber has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Company and has obtained sufficient information from the Company to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Company.
 
(b) Subscriber has determined that the Securities are a suitable investment for Subscriber. Subscriber is able to bear the economic risk of the investment in the Company (including a complete loss thereof) and has adequate financial or other means for providing for Subscriber's current needs and contingencies and has no need for liquidity in this investment.
 
5. Fees and Expenses. Subscriber shall pay for all its own fees and expenses in connection with this subscription, including without limitation legal fees and fees of its advisors and counsel, if any.
 
6. Restrictions. The Subscriber will not at any time make any disposition of any of the Securities except in accordance with applicable federal and state securities laws and the legend set forth below. The certificates for the Securities, the Note and the Conversion Stock to be issued to the undersigned will bear a legend in substantially the following form:
 
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR SUCH LAWS.
 
In the event the Common Stock may be publicly resold under the Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise under applicable securities laws, Subscriber agrees that it will not publicly resell more than 250,000 shares thereof per calendar week. Subscriber agrees that a legend reflecting the foregoing and reasonable transfer restrictions consistent therewith may be placed on the Common Stock.
 
7. Miscellaneous. The terms and conditions contained in this Second Amended and Restated Subscription Agreement (together with the PSA and a certain Registration Rights Agreement executed by the Company and Subscriber of even date herewith) constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all previous agreements and understandings, whether oral or written, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Second Amended and Restated Subscription Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware. This Second Amended and Restated Subscription Agreement may be amended only by a writing executed by the Company and Subscriber.
