3. In consideration of the premises the said Lessee covenants and agree to pay Lessor one-
eighth (1/8)of the proceeds received by Lessee, payable monthly, for the oil, gas and other hydrocarbons

tender as royalty to Lessor One Dollar per year per net mineral acre owned by Lessor and covered by this
lease,such payment or tender to be made on or before the anniversary date of this lease next ensuing after
the expiration of 90 days from the date such well is shut in and thereafter on or before the anniversary date
of this lease during the period such well is shut in. If such payment or tender is made, it will be considered
that gas is being produced within the meaning of this lease.
5. If said Lessor owns less than the entire oil and gas fee simple estate in the above described
lands, then the royalties (including any shut-in gas royalty) herein provided for shall be paid to the said
Lessor only in the proportion which Lessor's interest bears to the entire oil and gas mineral fee simple estate.

been furnished with notice, consisting of certified copies of all recorded instruments or documents and other
information necessary to establish a complete chain of record title from Lessor, and then only with respect
to payment thereafter made. No other kind of notice,whether actual or constructive, shall be binding upon
Lessee. No present or future division of Lessor's ownership as to different portions or parcels of said land
shall operate to enlarge the obligations or diminish the rights of Lessee, and all Lessee's operations may
be conducted without regard to any such division. If all or any part of this lease is assigned, no leasehold
owner shall be liable for any act or omission of any other leasehold owner.

estate covered by this lease with other land, lease or leases in the immediate vicinity for the production or
oil and gas,or separately for the production or either,when in Lessee's judgment it is necessary or advisable
to do so,and irrespective of whether authority similar to this exists with respect to such other land, lease or
leases. Likewise, units previously formed to include formations not producing oil or gas may be reformed

above described lands or any part thereof shall hereafter be operated under any such cooperative or unit
plan of development or operation whereby the production therefrom is allocated to different portions of the
land covered by said plan,then the production allocated to any particular tract of land shall,for the purpose
of computing the royalties to be paid hereunder to Lessor, be regarded as having been produced from the
particular tract of land to which it is allocated and not to any other tract of land;and the royalty payments to
be made hereunder to Lessor shall be based upon production only as so allocated. Lessor shall formally
express Lessor's consent to any cooperative or unit plan of development or operation adopted by Lessee
and approved by any governmental agency by executing the same upon request of Lessee.
12. All express or implied covenants of this lease shall be subject to all Federal and State laws,
executive orders,rules or regulations, and this lease shall not be terminated, in whole or in part, nor Lessee
held liable in damages,for failure to comply therewith, if compliance is prevented by, or if such failure is the
result of, any such law, order, rule or regulation.
13. Lessor does not warrant title to the leased premises,but it shall,upon request,allow Lessee
access to such abstracts and other title papers as it has in its files. Lessee shall have the right at any time
to redeem for Lessor,by payment, any mortgages,taxes or other liens on the above described lands in the
event of a default of payment by Lessor, and be subrogated to the rights of the holder thereof.

actions, including the defense of such claims or actions, based upon or arising out of damage or injury,

including but not limited to the failure to comply with laws, rules and regulations covering Colorado oil and
gas operations, Lessor is hereby authorized upon notice and hearing,as hereinafter provided,to cancel this
lease as to all of the leased land so claimed or possessed by Lessee hereunder. In the event of any such
default or failure, Lessor shall,before making any such cancellation,send to Lessee by certified mail,to the
post office address of said lessee as shown by the records of Lessor, a notice or intention to cancel for such
failure or default, specifying the same, stating that if within thirty (30) days from the date of mailing said
notice, Lessee shall correct such failure or default, no cancellation will be made. If such failure or default
is not corrected with thirty (30) days after the mailing of such notice, and if Lessee does not request a

Dear Bruce:
I have had the opportunity to review the information included within your letter of
December 6, 2000. This matter is regarding the area of a parcel of land as described in
that Quit Claim Deed as recorded June 30, 1936 in Book 995 on Page 337 of the records
of the Weld County Clerk and Recorder.
There are several areas within this document that could lead to several interpretations
regarding the shape and therefore the area of this parcel of land. I have reviewed the plot
of this parcel as provided by Mr. Robert E. Weaver. Based upon his plot of this parcel a
portion is contained within the Northwest Quarter of Section 11 and not entirely located
within the Southwest Quarter of Section 2 as stated within the recorded document.
Because of this I would have to assume that his assumptions regarding the shape, and
therefore the size of this parcel of land are not correct.
I have drawn this parcel out, a copy of this plot is attached for your information. I would
be happy to go into more depth regarding my procedure by which I determined the shape
and therefore the size of this parcel of land. I should point out thought that 1 drew this
parcel basically from both ends of the description and making determinations from how
the description was written.
Page 1 of 2
My findings are that this parcel contains approximately 3.9 Acres, more or less, which is
very close to the area of 3.94 Acres as stated within the description. I would therefore
state that the area as stated within the document in question is correct and that it reflects
the true area of this parcel of land.
If you have any questions regarding this material please contact me at your convenience.
Respectfully submitted,
Charles B. Jones PLS
SURVEYOR'S CERTIFICATE
I, Charles B. Jones, a Colorado Registered Professional Land Surveyor do hereby state
that I reviewed the property description as stated herein and determined the area of said
parcel of land is as stated within the aforesaid document, and that this information is true

opinion.

Dear Ms. Harding,
As per our recent conversation, enclosed please find a copy of the metes and bounds description
for the above referenced tract. I have highlighted the part of said description that appears to be in
error(see included map), changing the acreage from 3.94 acres to 1.80 acres +/-. As the County has
the original survey notes, would you please have the appropriate department review these notes and
let me know how we can correct said error.
In addition, there are several typographical error of the lease form. On the second line"Sate"
should be changed to "State"; in Provision No. 1, 6'" line, "continued" should be changed to
"continue"; in Provision No. 5, 2n° line, a"to" should be added between"paid" and "the said Lessor";
in Provision No. 10, 6th line, "difference" needs to be changed to "different"; in Provision No. 11, 24th
line, "impled" should be changed to "implied".
Please call at your earliest convenience to discuss this in greater detail. Prima Oil & Gas

Dear Mr. Weaver
This is in reference to your letter dated October 20, 2000, offering to lease a parcel of land. I
have enclosed a copy of the Mineral Leasing Policy, which indicates a maximum three-year
lease, as well as the royalty bonus required. Also enclosed is a Small Tract (Paid-Up) Oil and
Gas Lease for you to complete and sign. Once the completed lease form and your check has
been received by the Clerk to the Board's office, the matter will be scheduled on the agenda of
the next regular Board of County Commissioner's meeting.
Thank you for your interest in this matter. If you have questions or need additional information,
