Accordingly, I have answered a few commonly asked questions below and provided you with my contact information in case you have other questions. Why am I receiving it? The COGCC Rules and Colorado Statutes require the attached application be sent to you. You are receiving this Application because you own an interest in the proposed well. What action is required of me? At this time, no action is required on your part; however, you do have certain rights as described in detail in the enclosed Application and letter. Will I still receive royalty from the well if I do not respond to this Application? There are various types of interest owners in oil and gas wells: (1) Working Interest Owners, (2) Unleased Mineral Owners, and (3) Royalty Owners, otherwise known as Leased Mineral Owners. We have sent previous notice of this well to Working Interest Owners and Unleased Mineral Owners. If this is the first notice you have received concerning the proposed well, you are a Royalty Owner. If the proposed well produces, Royalty Owners will receive a royalty from the well, based the terms of the applicable lease, regardless of their response to this Application. What should I do if I need more information? If you need additional information please contact me: Alexander S.
