4.

at closing, Nation will assume AUS$2,265,109 of Paltars related party debt;

Attention:

Mr. Marc Bruner


Dear Sirs:


RE:

Paltar Petroleum Limited Australia Permits & Applications


This letter sets out the agreement (Agreement) reached among Nation Energy Inc. as purchaser (the Purchaser), and Paltar Petroleum Limited (the "Vendor") regarding the transfer and sale by the Vendor of the oil & gas permit and application assets listed on Schedule A hereto to the Purchaser upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.  Marc Bruner (Bruner) as an indirect major shareholder and CEO of the Vendor agrees to the terms hereof.


Acquisition

1.

The Vendor (or at Vendors option, a subsidiary of the Vendor) hereby agrees to sell, assign and transfer to the Purchaser (or, at Purchasers option, a subsidiary of the Purchaser) the assets of the Vendor or its subsidiary (the "Vendor Assets") which are listed on Schedule A attached hereto on the terms and subject to the conditions set out in this Agreement (the Sale Transaction), free and clear of all liabilities. The Vendor has not operated the Vendor Assets nor explored or developed same. The Vendor Assets produce no revenues. The Assets consist primarily of four oil & gas exploration government issued permits (Permits) and 29 applications for Permits (Applications) on property in northern Australia.

Consideration

2.

In consideration for the sale and transfer of the Assets to the Purchaser, the Purchaser agrees to arrange the Bridge Loan, arrange the Line of Credit (both as defined below), assume Vendor related party debt of $2,265,109 and issue to the Vendor 600,000,000 shares of common stock of the Purchaser (together, the Consideration), which 600,000,000 shares upon Closing will be approximately 80% of the common shares in the capital of the Purchaser (the Nation Energy Shares) before the issuance of any equity financing securities that may be arranged for the financing of Purchasers operations. The Vendor acknowledges that the Nation Energy Shares will be restricted as to sale by US securities laws and rules and will carry a restrictive legend indicating such restrictions, and in addition, the Vendor has agreed to a lockup of the Nation Energy Shares such that none may be sold for 3 years after closing, except as may be otherwise permitted by the unanimous resolution of the board of the Purchaser. Any shares that may be transferred by the Vendor by way of dividend or otherwise to a party where Marc Bruner is the beneficial owner will be locked up for an additional 2 years (total 5 years). The Vendor will become an affiliate of the Purchaser and as such, will be required to file insider reports and otherwise comply with SEC affiliate rules. In addition, Vendor acknowledges that Purchaser is a reporting issuer in Canada under Multilateral Instrument 51-105, and will remain so for a year after closing of the Sale Transaction (Closing), and Canadian securities filings will be required during that time.


Loan Facilities

3.

On or before October 11, 2013, John Hislop will lend to the Vendor $172,040, and on or before October 31, 2013, an additional $127,960 (together, the Bridge Loan). In the event the Sale Transaction closes, the Bridge Loan will be replaced by a Debenture issued by the Purchaser (the Debenture). In the event that the Sale Transaction does not close, the Vendor will repay the Bridge Loan will be due and payable on October 14, 2014 with interest at 12% per annum calculated monthly from the date of advance. If it is not repaid on October 14, 2014, the lender may immediately realize on the security granted. If the Sale Transaction closes, interest from the date of advance to the Closing date will be waived by Mr. Hislop.

4.

The Bridge Loan will be secured by a guarantee and pledge of 10,000,000 common shares of the Vendor owned by Wotan Group Limited pursuant to a note, limited guarantee and pledge agreement to be negotiated and agreed by October 10, 2013.

5.

In the event the Sale Transaction has not closed by December 31, 2013 for reasons other than a default by the Vendor, John Hislop may advance in his sole discretion, which advances may be refused for any reason, a line of credit (the Line of Credit) to the Vendor for working capital, allowing the Vendor to receive advances beginning December 31, 2013 and continuing through March 31, 2014, up to an aggregate of $400,000. All advances and accrued interest would be due October 14, 2014, with simple interest accruing from date of advance at the rate of 12% per annum. If it is not repaid on October 14, 2014, the lender may immediately realize on the security granted. If the Sale Transaction closes, interest due on the Line of Credit will be waived by Mr. Hislop and the amount of the Line of Credit liability will be included in the Debenture.

6.

The Line of Credit will be secured by a limited guarantee and pledge of the same 10,000,000 common shares of the Vendor owned by Wotan Group Limited as listed above pursuant to an additional note, limited guarantee and pledge agreement to be negotiated and agreed by December 20, 2013.  If the Sale Transaction closes as contemplated by this Letter Agreement, the Purchaser will replace the limited guarantee and pledge by granting to John Hislop a first priority lien against all of its present and after acquired property to secure repayment of all sums due under the Debenture.

7.

The definitive agreements will contain terms and representations customary for agreements governing the purchase and sale of oil and gas permits in Australia, as prepared by commercial legal counsel of good reputation. In the event that any matter cannot be resolved or agreed, the terms of this Agreement will govern respecting that matter. If no definitive agreements are executed by the parties hereto, this Agreement will remain in full force and effect.

9.

The Vendor acknowledges that the Purchaser will be required within 4 days of Closing to file a comprehensive 8-K material change report which includes prospectus level disclosure about the Assets, the Vendor Assets, risks, prospects and management.
