=======================================================================
  Agreement to Purchase the El Corral and Venado (Chile) Copper
  Oxide Properties
=======================================================================

Pacific Copper Corp. (OTCBB: PPFP) (CUSIP # 69412U 10 0 ) through its
Chilean subsidiary, has executed a Letter of Intent ("LOI") with a
single vendor to acquire a 100% interest in the Venado oxide copper
project located 45 km northeast of the city of Copiapo, Atacama Region
III, Chile, and a 100% interest in the El Corral oxide-chalcocite
copper property located 110 km southeast of Copiapo, Chile and in
Atacama Region III.

The Venado property, which consists of nearly 3600 hectares, is
road-accessible and is characterized by mineralized breccias and shear
zones, containing various forms of oxide copper over considerable
strike lengths, of up to 1500 meters at surface, throughout the
property. Pending geochemical results from surface sampling, these
oxides appear to contain ore grade material. The vendor will receive 2
million shares of the Company at closing in exchange for this property,
along with a 2% Net Smelter Return ("NSR") royalty capped at US$6
million, 1% of which can be repurchased prior to commercial production
for the sum of US$2 million. Major companies active in this district
include Teck-Cominco, BHP, Yamana, and Xstrata.

The El Corral property, which consists of nearly 4000 hectares, is
road-accessible and is characterized by oxide copper and chalcocite
mineralization in various volcanic and volcanoclastic sedimentary units
encountered at the surface. Multiple mineralized zones are found
throughout an area of 10km long by 4km wide. Selected surface samples
at the property analyzed in 1999 yielded copper grades from .01% to in
excess of 5% of which 96 channel and chip samples have average grade of
1.1% copper. The vendor will receive 2 million shares of the Company at
closing in exchange for El Corral, and a 2% NSR royalty subject to the
same repurchase terms as above. Major companies with a presence in the
general area include Freeport, Teck Cominco and Xstrata.
The Company anticipates that both El Corral and Venado, subject to
confirmation of resources, a mine plan and feasibility, would
eventually be the subject of open pit, heap leaching copper oxide
operations. Currently, Pacific Copper anticipates commencing an
immediate exploration and definitional drilling campaign at both
properties which will be pursued through the end of calendar year 2008.
