The total cost to Aztec was $18,398.25, which they paid us for. Aztec later did additional title work and discovered that pursuant to a 1942 court order in a quiet title decree, the mineral rights for this parcel had been declared to be owned by the Union Pacific Railroad Company. In following up with Aztec and asking for their title work, and reviewing the title history, it appears that Aztec is likely right in their determination. As a result, Aztec is requesting the refund of the $18,398.25 and the cancellation of the lease. There are hold harmless provisions in the lease protecting the county from such title mistakes on the part of the oil and gas companies, and it is clear that the title work is to be done by the Oil and Gas companies. However, there are also provisions for terminating the lease, and in this instance that appears appropriate. What options exist for the Board? (include consequences, impacts, costs, etc. of options): 1. Terminate the lease and refund the $18,3 8.25. ( ,nU5 1 g R3a .5O 2. Terminate the least but retain the $18,38-.25. 3. Not terminate the lease. 2.etl'?3,\ ` b- a5 Recommendation: G n� Option 1. Sean P. Conway Julie A.
