Dear Sirs:

Re: Agreement to Vote

For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by both Surge Global Energy Inc. and Xxxxx Xxxxx (the "Securityholders") and in consideration of the entering into by Signet Energy Inc. ("Signet") of the arrangement agreement dated August , 2007 among Signet, Pan Orient Energy Corp., Andora Energy Corporation ("Andora"), 1337686 Alberta Ltd. and Valiant Trust Company (the "Arrangement Agreement") relating to the combination of the businesses of Andora and Signet (the "Proposed Transaction"), Signet, Andora and the Securityholders agree as follows:

Unless otherwise defined herein capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Arrangement Agreement.

1. Ownership of Shares

Signet and Andora understand that the Securityholders are the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly or exercise voting control over, of at least the number of common shares (the "Shares") of Signet, set forth on page 5 hereof.

In addition to the foregoing, the term "Shares" will be deemed to also include any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, combination or exchange of shares of capital stock of Signet on, of, or affecting the Securityholder's Shares or after the date of this Agreement.

2. Revocation of Previous Proxies

The Securityholders hereby revoke any and all previous proxies with respect to the Securityholders' Shares.

3. Covenants of the Securityholders

The Securityholders covenant and agree with Signet and Andora that, until the Release Date, as defined below, to the extent the Proposed Transaction is effected as set forth in the Arrangement Agreement and provided the board of directors of Signet have received a written fairness opinion from their financial advisors indicating that the transaction is fair from a financial point of view to the shareholders of Signet, the Securityholders shall:

(a)

attend (either in person or by proxy) any meeting of the securityholders of Signet convened for the purposes of considering the Proposed Transaction (including any adjournments and postponements thereof), and at such meeting, vote all of the Shares in favour of the Proposed Transaction and all matters related thereto;

(b)

vote against (i) any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, rights offering, reorganization, recapitalization, or liquidation involving Signet other than the Proposed Transaction and any transaction related thereto, (ii) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of Signet or the issuance of any securities of Signet (other than pursuant to the Signet's incentive share option plan), or (iii) any action that is reasonably likely to impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, or adversely affect in any material respect the Proposed Transaction;

(c)	not sell, transfer, assign, pledge, or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any agreement or understanding relating to the sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition of the Shares or permit any affiliate of the Securityholders to do any of the foregoing;

(d)

not exercise any rights of dissent or appraisal in respect of any resolution approving the Proposed Transaction or any aspect thereof or matter related thereto, and not to exercise any other securityholder or optionholder rights or remedies available at common law or pursuant to the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) or in any manner delay, hinder, prevent, interfere with or challenge the Proposed Transaction;

(e)

promptly notify Signet upon any of undersigned's representations or warranties contained in this Agreement becoming untrue or incorrect in any material respect prior to the Release Date, and for the purposes of this provision, each representation and warranty shall be deemed to be given at and as of all times during such period (irrespective of any language which suggests that it is only being given as at the date hereof); and

(f)	deposit such number of their Shares into escrow on such terms and only to the extent as may be required by any stock exchange or other regulatory body in respect to the Proposed Transaction.

Forthe purposes of this letter agreement (this “Agreement”), "Release Date" means the earlier of: (i) the time at which the Proposed Transaction becomes effective (the "Effective Time") on the date on which the Proposed Transaction becomes effective (the "Effective Date"), which is to be no later than September 15, 2007 unless extended by mutual agreement by the parties to this Agreement; or (ii) the date of the termination of the Arrangement Agreement.

4. Representations and Warranties of the Securityholders

Each of the Securityholders hereby covenants, represents and warrants to Signet and Andora that:

(b)

the Securityholder is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Agreement and this letter is a valid and binding agreement, enforceable against the Securityholder in accordance with its terms, and the consummation by the Securityholder of the transaction contemplated hereby will not constitute a material violation or breach of or default under, or conflict with, any contract, commitment, agreement, understanding or arrangement of any kind to which the Securityholder will be a party and by which the Securityholder will be bound at the time of such consummation.

All of the representations and warranties contained in this section 4 shall be valid and true as if recited and repeated as at the Effective Time of the Proposed Transaction.

Each of Signet and Andora covenants and agrees that it shall comply, in all material respects, with the terms and conditions contained in the Arrangement Agreement.

6. Termination

In the event that the Arrangement Agreement is terminated in accordance with the respective terms thereof, this Agreement shall immediately terminate.
