AMENDED AND RESTATED
FINANCIAL SERVICES AGREEMENT
This
Restated Financial Services Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of
March 1, 2010 by and between Savoy Energy Corporation (the “Company”), Excelsus Capital
Partners, LLC (“Partners”) (each a “Party” and collectively
referred to hereafter as the “Parties”).
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS,
the Company has previously entered into Financial Services Agreements with
Partners dated as of November 19, 2009 and January 20, 2010 (collectively, the
“Prior Agreements”) whereby Partners agreed to serve as the Company’s corporate
finance and strategic advisor on the terms and for the services specified in the
Prior Agreements;
WHEREAS,
the Parties now recognize that the scope of services provided and to be provided
by Partners under the terms of the Prior Agreements is greater that the Parties
anticipated at the time the Company entered into the Prior Agreements and that
it is fair and appropriate for Partners to be paid compensation in addition to
the consideration which was stated in the Prior Agreements;
WHEREAS,
the Parties intend by this Agreement to restate the terms of the Prior
Agreements and to proceed forward based upon the terms of this
Agreement.
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants herein
contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, intending to be legally
bound, hereby agree in good faith as follows:
1. Definitions. Unless
otherwise defined in this Agreement, terms appearing in initial capitalized form
shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in this.

operations, financial condition and prospects of the Company;

the restructuring of certain of its financial obligations;
(c) Partners
will work with the Company to develop a strategic plan to access additional

consideration for Partners providing the services set forth in Section 2 above,

of shares issued to Partners in connection with this Financial Services
Agreement being 4,000,000 shares) (the “Partners’

earned upon receipt.

(e) Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of New Jersey without giving
effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State
of New Jersey or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of
laws of any jurisdictions other than those of the State of New
Jersey. The Parties hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of
the courts of the State of New Jersey and the United States District Court for
the District of New Jersey for all disputes arising under this
Agreement.
(f) Amendments and

misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder shall be deemed to
extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation or breach of
warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue

term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any

jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or
unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making the determination of
invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to limit the term or
provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or
unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and
enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or
unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so
modified.
(h) Construction. The
language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the
Parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall
be applied against any party. Any reference to any federal, state,
local or foreign statute or law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires
otherwise.
(i) Remedies. Partners shall be
entitled to enforce its rights under this Agreement specifically to recover
damages by reason of any breach of any provision or term of this Agreement and
to exercise all other rights existing in its favor. In the event of
any dispute under this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to
recover its costs incurred in connection with the resolution thereof, including
reasonable attorneys fees.
