exploration does not interfere with rights granted herein.
In consideration of the premises, the parties covenant and agree as follows:
1. RENTAL - If this lease is extended for an additional term as provided for in the EXTENSION
paragraph hereof, Lessee shall during such extended period pay to lessor an annual rental at double the rate
above specified for the land covered hereby. The rental in effect at the time production is established

(a) On oil, 122- of the oil produced and•saved from the leased land.
At the option of Lessor, and with sixty (60) days' notice to Lessee, Lessor may take its
royalty oil in kind, in which event Lessee shall deliver such royalty oil to Lessor on the leased land,
free of cost or deduction, into the pipelines or storage tanks designated by Lessor, but Lessee shall
not in such case be required to provide free tankage for any such oil for a longer period than one
month after the same is run into tanks. With sixty (60) days' notice to Lessee, Lessor may cease
taking oil royalty in kind. When paid in cash, the royalty shall be calculated upon the fair market
value of the oil at the well which shall not be deemed to be less than the price actually paid to
Lessee at the well. by the purchaser thereof; and in no event shall the royalties be based upon a market
value at the well less than the posted price in the field for such oil, or in the absence of a posted
price in the field fcr such oil, upon a market value at the well less than the prevailing price
received by other producers in the field for oil of like grade and gravity at the time such oil is run

sale of gas shall be furnished to Lessor. Where gas is sold under.contract that has been approved by
Lessor, the fair market value of such gas for determining the royalties payable hereunder shall be the
price at which such gas is sold under such contract. 'No approval by Lessor of the terms of any such'
agreement shall operate to make Lessor a party thereto or obligate it thereunder in any way. At the
option of Lessor, and with sixty (60) days' notice to Lessee, Lessor may take its royalty in kind.

subject to approval by Lessor. The total of said overriding royalties shall not exceed five percent (5%),
including any overriding royalty previously provided for unless production exceeds a monthly average of
fifteen (15) barrels per day or ninety thousand cubic feet of gas per day (90 MCF/D). In the event that

royalties to Lessor as provided by ROYALTY paragraphs herein.
11. OFFSET WELLS - Lessee agrees to protect the leased land from drainage by offset wells located on-
adjoining lands not owned by Lessor, when such drainage is not compensated for by counter-drainage. It
shall be presumed that the production of oil and gas from offset wells results in drainage from the leased
land, unless Lessee demonstrates to Lessor's satisfaction, by engineering, geological, or other data, that.
production from such offset well does not result in such drainage, or that the drilling of a well or wells
on the leased land would not accomplish the purposes of protecting the deposits under the leased land.
Lessor's deefsion as to the existence of such drainage shall be final, and Lessee shall comply with Lessor's
order thereon or surrender this lease as to any such undeveloped acreage as designated by Lessor.

any stratum or strata with other lands and leases, stratum or strata, in the same field so as .to constitute

or regulation of the State or Federal regulatory or conservation agency having jurisdiction. Such pooling
•
•
•
(Rev. 11/86) .•
shall be accomplished or terminated by filing of record a declaration of pooling, or declaration of
termination of pooling;, and by mailing or tendering a copy to Lessor, or to the depository bank. Drilling
or reworking operations upon or production from any part of such spacing unit shall be considered for all
purposes of this lease as operations or productions from this lease. Lessee shall allocate to this lease
the proportionate share of production which the acreage in this lease included in any such spacing unit
bears to the total acreage in said spacing unit.

of such separate lease shall be limited as to the original term of this lease. The terms of the lease on
that portion remaining in the unit shall be deemed to be modified to conform to such agreement.

date of the unit or part thereof modifying the lease, but in no event prior to the end of the primary term
of the lease or the extension term of the lease.

all wells upon the leased land so long as the same are capable of producing in paying quantities, and shall

there exist neither market nor storage therefor, and except for such limitations on or suspensions of
production as may be approved in writing by Lessor. Lessee shall be responsible for adequate site security
on all producing properties.
16. SHUT-IN VEILS - If Lessee shall complete a well on the leased land productive of gas and Lessee is
unable to produce such gas due to a lack of suitable market therefor, Lessor nay grant Lessee suspension of
his obligations to produce hereunder until a suitable market for such gas can be found, and during any such
suspension period, it shall be deemed that gas is being produced hereunder in paying -quantities. Except,
however, that beginning on the anniversary date next, of the year of an extension of the lease by reason of
a shut-in well, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a shut-in royalty equal to $2 per acre of the lease per annum in
addition to the annual rental. The minimum amount of such shut-in royalty payment shall be $240. Each
