     WHEREAS, CanArgo Energy Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“CanArgo”), and certain persons (the “Senior Noteholders”) have entered into a Note Purchase Agreement dated July 25, 2005 as amended (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which CanArgo issued $25,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of senior secured promissory notes due July 25, 2009 (the “Senior Notes”); and

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Senior Notes, interest due on the Senior Notes shall be payable on the unpaid balance thereof in cash at the per annum rates of interest set out thereon, payable semi annually on the thirtieth day of June and December in each year until the principal amount thereof shall have become due and payable; and

     WHEREAS, CanArgo and the holders of the Senior Notes (each hereby referred to as a “Senior Noteholder” and collectively as the “Senior Noteholders”) wish to amend the Note Purchase Agreement and the terms of the Senior Notes such that the interest payment due on June 30, 2007 shall not be paid in cash but shall in substitution be satisfied by the issue of further Senior Notes to the Senior Noteholders.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency or which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

     1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined have the meanings assigned to them in the Note Purchase Agreement.

     2. Consent and Waiver. Notwithstanding the provisions of any Loan Document to the contrary provided, in accordance with Section 18 of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Senior Noteholders hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consent to, and waive any rights they may have under the Note Purchase Agreement or any other Loan Documents in connection with, the amendment and waiver of the terms of the Senior Notes to provide that the interest payments due to each of the Senior Noteholders on June 30, 2007 shall not be paid in cash but shall in substitution be satisfied in full by way of the issue and sale to the Senior Noteholders of further Senior Notes of the same tenor as the existing Senior Notes and imprinted with the same restrictive legend with the aggregate principal amount of such further notes being equal to the proportion of the interest payment due to the particular Senior Noteholder as at such date (rounded to the nearest US$1). The consent, amendment and waiver granted in this Section 2 only applies to the matter described in this clause, and does not constitute a waiver of, or

consent to, any other amendment to or waiver of any other provisions of the Loan Documents.

     3. Effect on Loan Documents.
