Re: Ignis Petroleum Corporation - Exploration Advisor Consultant Agreement

Dear Xxx:

It is with great pleasure that I extend to you the consulting position of Exploration Advisor. In your role, you will be a member of the Company's Board of Advisors whose responsibility is to work towards fulfilling the Company's goals, while providing ongoing recommendations to the executive team and board of directors, both strategic and tactical in nature. The agreement is for one year from the date of signing with two, one-year options to renew as mutually agreed.

POSITION SUMMARY - You will be responsible for providing input on matters of strategic, business development and technical importance, and will be an advisor to the executive team. The position overview is provided in Exhibit A and specific milestones for the first year in Exhibit B. You will be instrumental in Ignis' technical planning and evaluation and participate in fund raising as requested. This is a part-time position that will typically require two or more days per month in total commitment. At critical times, such as opportunity evaluation and planning, the time commitment may be more, but this would be considered unusual.

We will provide you a cash retainer which will be replenished monthly. You will be granted up to 350,000 shares of Ignis Petroleum Group, Inc. stock over a period of three years.
