of Zulu

The

Articles of Incorporation, as amended (the “Articles”),
and
such amount of authorized shares is insufficient to accomplish the financing(s)
required to obtain funds sufficient to consummate the Exploration Operations.
The Company intends to amend the Articles to increase its authorized shares
of
Common Stock to at least 150,000,000 shares of Common Stock as promptly as
practicable after the closing of the initial Financing, which closed on Monday,
May 7, 2008.
The
undersigned and each Option Holder holds Options, which are fully vested,
pursuant to each Option Holder’s employment agreement with the Company.

the undersigned is to receive shares of restricted Common Stock (the
“Restricted

from
the Company pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement with the Company
(the “Employment
Agreement”),

have not yet been issued.
To
facilitate the Company’s ability to accomplish the Financing(s) and to raise
funds sufficient to consummate the Exploration Operations, the undersigned
agrees to waive certain rights concerning (i) the exercise of his Options,
(ii)
the receipt of the shares of Restricted Stock pursuant to his Employment
Agreement and (iii) to enter into certain other agreements as further described

the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned
agrees as follows:
1.
Waiver
and Agreement.
The
undersigned hereby consents and agrees to waive his right and ability to (i)

150,000,000 shares.
