INFORMATION CIRCULAR


(as at August 3, 2007, unless indicated otherwise)

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES


This Information Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the management of Unbridled Energy Corporation (the “Company”) for use at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company to be held on Tuesday, September 11, 2007 (the “Meeting”) and any adjournment thereof at the time and place and for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Meeting. While it is expected that the solicitation will be primarily by mail, proxies may be solicited personally or by telephone by the directors and regular employees of the Company. All costs of solicitation will be borne by the Company.


These securityholder materials are being sent to both registered and non-registered owners of the securities. If you are a non-registered owner, and the Company or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of securities, have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the Intermediary (as defined below) holding on your behalf. By choosing to send these materials to you directly, the Company (and not the Intermediary holding on your behalf) has assumed responsibility for (i) delivering these materials to you, and (ii) executing your proper voting instructions. Please return your voting instructions as specified in the request for voting instructions. (For further information relating to non-registered owners, see the discussion below under “INFORMATION FOR NON-REGISTERED (BENEFICIAL) OWNERS OF SHARES”.)



APPOINTMENT AND REVOCATION OF PROXIES


The individuals named in the accompanying form of proxy are the Chairman and the Secretary of the Company. A SHAREHOLDER WISHING TO APPOINT SOME OTHER PERSON (WHO NEED NOT BE A SHAREHOLDER) TO REPRESENT HIM AT THE MEETING HAS THE RIGHT TO DO SO, EITHER BY INSERTING SUCH PERSON’S NAME IN THE BLANK SPACE PROVIDED IN THE FORM OF PROXY AND STRIKING OUT THE TWO PRINTED NAMES OR BY COMPLETING ANOTHER FORM OF PROXY. To be valid, a proxy must be in writing and executed by the shareholder or its attorney authorized in writing, unless the shareholder chooses to complete the proxy by telephone or the internet as described in the enclosed proxy form. Completed proxies must be received by Pacific Corporate Trust Company not less than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the time for holding the Meeting or any adjournment thereof, or delivered to the Chairman of the Meeting prior to the commencement of the Meeting or an adjourned meeting. The mailing address for Pacific Corporate Trust Company is 2nd Floor, 510 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3B9 and its fax number is 604.689.8144.


A shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it by an instrument in writing executed by the shareholder or by his attorney authorized in writing or, where the shareholder is a corporation, by a duly authorized officer or attorney of the corporation, and delivered either to the registered office of the Company, 3000 - 1055 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 3R3, at any time up to

2

and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or if adjourned, any reconvening thereof, or to the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting or, if adjourned, any reconvening thereof or in any other manner provided by law. A revocation of a proxy does not affect any matter on which a vote has been taken prior to the revocation.



INFORMATION FOR NON-REGISTERED (BENEFICIAL) OWNERS OF SHARES


The shares owned by many shareholders of the Company are not registered on the records of the Company in the beneficial shareholders’ own names. Rather, such shares are registered in the name of a securities dealer, bank or other intermediary, or in the name of a clearing agency (referred to in this Information Circular as “Intermediaries”). Shareholders who do not hold their shares in their own names (referred to in this Information Circular as “non-registered owners”) should note that only registered shareholders or duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote at the Meeting. A non-registered owner cannot be recognized at the Meeting for the purpose of voting his shares unless such holder is appointed by the applicable Intermediary as a proxyholder.


Non-registered owners who have not objected to their Intermediary disclosing certain ownership information about themselves to the Company are referred to as “NOBO’s”. Those non-registered owners who have objected to their Intermediary disclosing ownership information about themselves to the Company are referred to as “OBO’s”.


In accordance with applicable securities regulatory policy (National Instrument 54-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators), the Company has elected to seek voting instructions directly from NOBO’s. The Intermediaries (or their service companies) are responsible for forwarding this Information Circular and other Meeting Materials to each OBO, unless the OBO has waived the right to receive them.


Meeting Materials sent to non-registered owners who have not waived the right to receive Meeting Materials are accompanied by a request for voting instructions (a “VIF”). This form is provided instead of a proxy. By returning the VIF in accordance with the instructions noted on it, a non-registered owner is able to instruct the registered shareholder how to vote on behalf of the non-registered owner. VIF’s, whether provided by the Company or by an Intermediary, should be completed and returned in accordance with the specific instructions noted on the VIF.


In either case, the purpose of this procedure is to permit non-registered owners to direct the voting of the shares which they beneficially own. If a non-registered owner who receives a VIF wishes to attend the Meeting or have someone else attend on his behalf, then the non-registered owner may request a legal proxy as set forth in the VIF, which will grant the non-registered owner or his nominee the right to attend and vote at the Meeting.


IF YOU ARE A NON-REGISTERED OWNER AND WISH TO VOTE IN PERSON AT THE MEETING, PLEASE REFER TO THE INSTRUCTIONS SET OUT ON THE “REQUEST FOR VOTING INSTRUCTIONS” (VIF) THAT ACCOMPANIES THIS INFORMATION CIRCULAR.



EXERCISE OF DISCRETION


Shares represented by proxy are entitled to be voted on a show of hands or any poll and, where a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon has been specified in the form of proxy, the shares will be voted or withheld from voting in accordance with the specification so made.


SUCH SHARES WILL BE VOTED FOR EACH MATTER FOR WHICH NO CHOICE HAS BEEN SPECIFIED BY THE SHAREHOLDER.


The enclosed form of proxy when properly completed and delivered and not revoked confers discretionary authority upon the person appointed proxy thereunder to vote with respect to amendments

3

or variations of matters identified in the Notice of Meeting, and with respect to other matters which may properly come before the Meeting. In the event that amendments or variations to matters identified in the Notice of Meeting are properly brought before the Meeting or any further or other business is properly brought before the Meeting, it is the intention of the persons designated in the enclosed form of proxy to vote in accordance with their best judgment on such matters or business. At the time of the printing of this Information Circular, the management of the Company knows of no such amendment, variation or other matter which may be presented to the Meeting.



VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF


As at the date hereof, the Company has issued and outstanding 43,350,796 fully paid and non-assessable Common shares, each share carrying the right to one vote. THE COMPANY HAS NO OTHER CLASSES OF VOTING SECURITIES.


Any Shareholder of record at the close of business on August 3, 2007 who either personally attends the Meeting or who has completed and delivered a form of proxy in the manner and subject to the provisions described above shall be entitled to vote or to have his shares voted at the Meeting.


To the knowledge of the directors and executive officers of the Company, the only person or company who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, or exercises control or direction over shares carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to all outstanding shares of the Company is:

STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES


Corporate governance is the process and structure used to direct and manage the business and affairs of an issuer with the objective of enhancing value for its owners. National Instrument 58-101 of the Canada Securities Administrators – Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices (“NI 58-101”) requires the Company to disclose in this Information Circular a summary of its corporate governance protocols.


Board of Directors


As at the date hereof, the Board of Directors of the Company consists of seven directors, three of whom are independent directors as defined in NI 58-101, meaning that, in each case, he has no direct or indirect relationship with the Company which could, in the view of the Board, reasonably be expected to interfere with the exercise of his independent judgment, and is not otherwise deemed not to be independent. Applying the criteria in NI 58-101, each of Dr. Robert Mummery, Michael Gatens (who is not standing for re-election as a director) and Robert Penner is an independent director. Chris Dyakowski (who is also not standing for re-election as a director) is considered not to be independent on the basis that he served within the last three years as an executive officer of the Company, Daniel O’Byrne is considered not to be independent on the basis that he is an immediate family member of an executive officer of the Company and Joseph Frantz Jr. and Craig Steinke are both considered not to be independent on the basis that they are executive officers of the Company.


To date the independent directors have not held regularly scheduled meetings without the non-independent directors and other members of management in attendance, but are able to and do hold such meetings whenever they believe such a meeting is required. The independent directors believe that, given the Company’s stage of development, this is a reasonable practice.


The independent members of the Board believe that their presence on the Board, their sophistication and their knowledge of the Company’s business are sufficient to facilitate the functioning of the Board independently of management and to provide for open and candid discussion among the independent directors.

Mandates


The Board of Directors is responsible for supervising management in carrying on the business and affairs of the Company. Directors are required to act and exercise their powers with reasonable prudence in the best interests of the Company. In discharging its mandate, the Board is responsible for the oversight and review of the development of, among other things, the following matters:


the strategic planning process of the Company;


identifying the principal risks of the Corporation’s business and ensuring the implementation of appropriate systems to manage these risks;


planning for succession of management;


the Company's policies regarding communications with its shareholders and others; and the integrity of the internal controls and management information systems of the Company.


In carrying out its mandate, the Board relies primarily on management to provide it with regular detailed reports on the operations of the Company and its financial position. The Board reviews and assesses these reports and other information provided to it at meetings of the full Board and of its Committees. Management personnel regularly attend Board meetings to provide information and answer questions. Directors also consult from time to time with management. At least annually, the Board reviews management's report on its business and strategic plan and any changes with respect to risk management and succession planning.


The Board discharges specific responsibilities directly through its Committees, currently consisting of the Audit and Finance Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Disclosure Committee. The Board of directors of the Company have adopted written mandates for each Committee. The text of each Committees’ written mandate is attached to this Circular as Appendix A.


Orientation and Continuing Education


The Board does not have a formal orientation and education program for new directors. Upon joining the Board, each director is provided with an orientation program regarding the role of the Board, its committees and its directors, and the nature and operation of the Company’s current and past business. They are also provided with a copy of the Company’s Corporate Disclosure Policy and with copies of the Audit and Finance, Compensation, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee charters. The Board encourages directors to participate in continuing education opportunities in order to ensure that the directors may maintain or enhance their skills and abilities as directors, and maintain a current and thorough understanding of the Company’s business.


Ethical Business Conduct


Corporate governance is the structure and process used to direct and manage the business and affairs of a corporation with the objective of enhancing shareholder value. While the Board of Directors believes that the Company has in place corporate governance practices that are both effective and appropriate to the Company’s size and business operations, it plans, during the ensuing year, to adopt a written code of business conduct and ethics to formally implement such practices, which code will apply equally to all directors, officers and employees. The Company regards maintaining a culture of ethical business conduct and social responsibility as critically important. Management consistently strives to instil the Company’s principles into the practices and actions of the Company’s management and employees.

Nomination of Directors


The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is composed of three Board members: Michael Gatens, Dr. Robert Mummery and Daniel O’Byrne. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for identifying new candidates for the Board as necessary, after considering what competencies and skills the directors as a group should possess and assessing the competencies and skills of the existing and any proposed directors, and considering the appropriate size of the Board.


Compensation


The Compensation Committee is composed of three Board members: Robert Penner, Dr. Robert Mummery and Daniel O’Byrne. The Compensation Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of senior management of the Company, evaluating performance in light of those goals and making recommendations to the Board with respect to executive compensation levels based on that evaluation, reviewing and making recommendations to the Board with respect to the adequacy and form of the compensation of the directors, and reviewing executive compensation disclosure before it is publicly issued.


Audit & Finance Committee


The Audit & Finance Committee is composed of three Board members: Chris Dyakowski, Robert Penner and Daniel O’Byrne. For more detailed disclosure respecting the Audit Committee see “Audit and Finance Committee” set out below.


Disclosure Committee


The Disclosure Committee is composed of three Board members: Michael Gatens, Dr. Robert Mummery and Chris Dyakowski. The Disclosure Committee is responsible for ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company is recorded, processed, summarized, approved and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable Canadian securities rules and regulations.


Other Board Committees


The Board has no standing committees other than the Audit and Finance Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Disclosure Committee.


Assessments


The mandate of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee includes overseeing the effective functioning of the Board, which includes a periodic review of the effectiveness of the Board as a whole and of the composition of the Board. To date, given the small size of the Board and the frequency with which its meetings are held, the Board has not found it necessary to institute any formal process in order to satisfy itself that the Board, its committees and its individual directors are performing effectively.



AUDIT AND FINANCE COMMITTEE

Audit and Finance Committee’s Charter


The text of the Company’s Audit and Finance Committee Charter is attached as Appendix A to this Circular.


Composition of the Audit and Finance Committee


As at the date hereof, the members of the Audit and Finance Committee are Chris Dyakowski (not standing for re-election as a director), Daniel O’Byrne and Robert Penner. Pursuant to the meaning of

8

independence set out in Multilateral Instrument 52-110 – Audit Committees (“MI 52-110”), Mr. O’Byrne is considered not to be independent on the basis that he is an immediate family member of an executive officer of the Company and Mr. Dyakowski is considered not to be independent on the basis that he served within the last three years as an executive officer of the Company. Mr. Penner is considered to be independent. Each of the members of the Audit and Finance Committee is financially literate within the meaning of Section 1.5 of MI 52-110 presently in effect in all provinces of Canada except British Columbia, in that he has the ability to read and understand a set of financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of the issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the Company’s financial statements.


Relevant Education and Experience


Mr. Dyakowski has acted in the capacity of President/Director and/or Chief Financial Officer for approximately two dozen companies in the 27 years that he has been involved in the creating and running of junior mineral exploration companies. These years of experience have left Mr. Dyakowski with an intuitive understanding of the accounting principles used by the Company to prepare its financial statements.


Mr. O’Byrne has a Bachelor of Science in petroleum engineering from the University of Alberta (1982) and a Masters Degree in Business Administration from the University of Western Ontario (1987). He also has previous planning and economic evaluation experience.

The Company has in place a Share Option Plan (the “Plan”) for the benefit of directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company. The Plan provides that the directors of the Company may grant options to purchase Common shares on terms that the directors may determine, within the limitations of the Plan. The maximum aggregate number of Common shares that may be reserved for issuance under the Plan is equal to 10% of the issued and outstanding Common shares at the time of the option grant. The exercise price of an option issued under the Plan is determined by the directors, but may not be less than the market price of the Company’s shares on the date of grant less any available discount. No option may be granted for a term longer than five years. An option may expire on such earlier date or dates as may be fixed by the Board, subject to earlier termination in the event the optionee ceases to be eligible under the Plan by reason of death, retirement or otherwise.

Compensation of Directors


The Company has no pension plan or other arrangement for cash or non-cash compensation to the directors of the Company, other than the Named Executive Officers, except stock options.

PARTICULARS OF OTHER MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

Continuance of Share Option Plan

In accordance with the policy of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) governing stock options, all issuers are required to adopt a share option plan pursuant to which stock options may be granted.


The Company currently has a share option plan (the “Plan”) as previously approved by the directors, and as also first approved by the shareholders of the Company at the Special Meeting held on July 12, 2006. The Plan complies with the requirements of Exchange Policy 4.4 for Tier 2 issuers. The Plan provides for the issuance of stock options to acquire up to 10% of the Company’s issued and outstanding capital as at the date of grant. This is a “rolling” plan as the number of shares reserved for issuance pursuant to the grant of stock options will increase as the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital increases.

15

The Exchange policy requires that such Plans be approved by shareholders annually, at the company’s annual general meeting. Continuation of the Plan will be subject to the approval of the shareholders of the Company and review and acceptance by the Exchange.


A copy of the Plan will be available at the Meeting for review by the shareholders. In addition, upon request, shareholders may obtain a copy of the Plan from the Company prior to the Meeting.


Plan


The principal features of the Plan are as follows:


1.

The maximum number of Common shares issuable pursuant to the Plan shall not exceed 10% of the issued shares of the Company at the time of the stock option grant.


2.

The maximum number of shares under option to the benefit of one person under the Plan may not exceed 5%, on an annual basis, of the total of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company (on a non-diluted basis) at the time of grant (in the case of a consultant, as defined by the Exchange’s policies, the annual maximum is 2%).


In the case where the holder of an option is engaged in investor relations activities (as defined by the Exchange’s policies) for the Company or one of its subsidiaries, the total number of shares under option may not exceed 2% of the total of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company (on a non-diluted basis) at the time of grant.


3.

The options granted will have a maximum term of five years from the date of grant.


4.

The option is non-assignable and non-transferable.


5.

If an optionee ceases to be employed by the Company (other than as a result of termination with cause) or ceases to act as a director or officer of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company, any option held by such optionee may be exercised within 90 days after the date such optionee ceases to be employed by the Company or ceases to act as a director or officer, as the case may be, or within 30 days if the optionee is engaged in investor relations activities and ceases to be employed to provide investor relations activities.


6.

In the event of the death of an optionee, the optionee’s heirs or administrators may exercise any portion of the outstanding option up to a period of one year from the date of the optionee’s death or the termination date of the option, whichever is earlier.


7.

Any Common shares subject to an option which for any reason is cancelled or terminated without having been exercised shall again be available for grant under the Plan.


Shareholder Approval


Accordingly, the shareholders of the Company will be requested at the Meeting to pass an ordinary resolution in the following terms:


“RESOLVED that:


1.

the Company’s share option plan (the “Plan”), as described in the Information Circular of the Company dated August 3, 2007, be and is hereby ratified, confirmed and approved, subject to acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange;


2.

the Company be authorized to grant stock options pursuant and subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, entitling the option holders to purchase up to

16

that number of Common shares that is equal to 10% of the issued and outstanding capital of the Company at the time of the grant;


3.

the outstanding stock options which have been granted prior to the renewal of the Plan shall, for the purpose of calculating the number of stock options that may be granted under the Plan, be treated as options granted under the Plan; and


4.

any one director or officer of the Company be and he is hereby authorized and directed to do all such acts and things and to execute and deliver under the corporate seal or otherwise all such deeds, documents, instruments and assurances as in his opinion may be necessary or desirable to give effect to the foregoing resolutions and to complete all transactions in connection with the continuation of the Plan.”



OTHER BUSINESS


Management of the Company knows of no matters to come before the Meeting other than those referred to in the Notice of Meeting accompanying this Information Circular. However, if any other matters properly come before the Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the form of proxy accompanying this Information Circular to vote the same in accordance with their best judgment of such matters.
