RENTAL - This is a PAID-UP LEASE. In consideration of the down cash payment, Lessor agrees that Lessee shall not be obligated, except as otherwise provided herein, to commence or continue any operations during the primary term. Lessee may at any time or times during or after the primary term surrender this lease as to all or any portion of said land and as to any strata or stratum by delivering to Lessor or by filing for record a release or releases, and be relieved of all obligation thereafter accruing as to the acreage surrendered. 2.

Lessee Responsible for All Costs/Expenses: Lessee shall account for any and all substances produced on the leased land and shall pay to Lessor as royalty, in addition to the rentals provided, the royalties described in paragraphs B through E below, which shall be free of all costs of any kind. In this regard, Lessee agrees to bear one hundred percent (100%) of all costs and expenses incurred in rendering hydrocarbons produced on or from the Leased Premises marketable and delivering the same into the purchaser's pipeline for immediate transportation to an end user or storage facility. If a gas purchase contract makes any deductions for the expenses of dehydrating, transporting, compressing, manufacturing, processing, treating, gathering or marketing of such gas, then such deductions shall be added to the price received by Lessee for such gas for the purpose of the payment of royalties to Lessor. Additionally, royalties payable to Lessor shall never bear, either directly or indirectly, under any circumstances, the costs or expenses (including depreciation) to construct, repair, renovate or operate any pipeline, plant, or other facilities or equipment used in connection with the treating, separation, extraction, gathering, processing, refining, transporting, manufacturing or marketing of hydrocarbons produced from the Leased Premises or lands pooled therewith. It is the intent of the parties that the provisions of this Paragraph 2 are to be fully effective and enforceable. all J B. Royalty Payment on Products: On products, Lessee shall pay Lessor a royalty payment of 82 eighteen and one-half percent (18.5%) of the gross market value or proceeds of sale thereof, whichever is higher. C. Royalty Payment on Residue Gas: On residue gas or gas remaining after separation, tar ms.4 extraction or processing operations, Lessee shall pay Lessor eighteen and one-half percent ��3 (18.5%) of the proceeds of sale or of the market value thereof, whichever is higher. a3 o D. Royalty Payment on Oil: At the option of Lessor, and with sixty (60) days' notice to Lessee, Ng ' 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 wa"X mms� designated by Lessor, but Lessee shall not in such case be required to provide free tankage o-^v:,+ 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, Lessee shall pay Lessor for oil produced and saved from the leased land, eighteen and one- t/ON£ O r half percent (18.5%) the market value of the oil at the wellhead, or the price actually paid to 49aTC Lessee at the well by the purchaser thereof, whichever is higher; and in no event shall the amN•11 royalties be based upon a market value at the well less than the posted price in the field for C:\Users\kfordWppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.Outlook\TBPT5 DNY\FOLease_SmallTract2014-Clean (2).docx (Revised 05/2014) Small-Tract Oil and Gas Lease Page 3 such oil, or in the absence of a posted price in the field for 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 into pipelines or storage tanks. E. No Refund of Bonus: If Lessor owns a lesser interest in the oil and gas deposits of the above- described land than the entire and undivided fee simple estate, then the royalties and rentals herein provided shall be paid to Lessor only in the portion which its interest bears to the whole and undivided fee, but no refund of any bonus consideration shall be made by Lessor hereunder. F. Timing of Royalty Payments: All royalties payable under the terms of this lease shall be payable in cash (unless Lessor elects to take such royalty oil or gas in kind) to Lessor within one hundred twenty (120) days following the first commercial sale of production and thereafter no more than sixty (60) days after the end of the month following the month during which production takes place. Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 16 of this Lease concerning shut-in wells, royalties shall be paid to Lessor by Lessee and/or its assigns or by the product purchaser for oil and/or gas. Upon the failure of any party to pay Lessor the royalty as provided in this paragraph, Lessor may, at Lessor's option, elect to terminate this Lease by sending written notice to Lessee. Lessee shall then have forty-five (45) days from the date of service of such written notice in which to avoid termination of this Lease by making or causing to be made the proper royalty payment or payments that should have been paid. If such royalty payment is not made on, or before, the expiration of the 45-day period, or written approval is not obtained from Lessor to defer such payment, Lessor may elect to terminate this Lease by filing a Notice of Termination with the Weld County Clerk and Recorder. The effective date of said termination shall be the date said Notice of Termination is recorded. G. Effect of "Take or Pay Provision": In the event Lessee enters into a gas purchase contract which contains what is commonly referred to as a "take or pay provision" (such provision meaning that the gas purchaser agrees to take delivery of a specified minimum volume or quantity of gas over a specified term at a specified price or to make minimum periodic payments to the producer for gas not taken by the purchaser)and the purchaser under such gas purchase contract makes payment to Lessee by virtue of such purchaser's failure to take delivery of such minimum volume or quantity of gas, then Lessor shall be entitled to eighteen and one-half • percent(18.5%)of all such sums paid to Lessee or producer under the"pay" provisions of such gas purchase contract. Such royalty payments shall be due and owing to Lessor within sixty (60) days after the receipt of such payments by Lessee. If the gas purchaser"makes up" such 1 gas within the period called for in the gas contract and Lessee is required to give such r� purchaser a credit for gas previously paid for but not taken, then Lessor shall not be entitled to royalty on such "make up"gas. If Lessee is not producing any quantities of gas from the Leased Premises but is receiving payments under the "pay" portion of such "take or pay" gas purchase may contract provision, such payments shall not relieve Lessee of the duty to make shut-in royalty mm y payments if Lessee desires to continue this Lease, but such "take or pay" royalty payments shall be applied as a credit against any shut-in royalty obligation of the Lessee. Lessor shall 0,65 be a third-party beneficiary of any gas purchase contract and/or transportation agreement ,ree s entered into between Lessee and any purchaser and/or transporter of Lessor's gas, E-2 irrespective of any provision of said contracts to the contrary, and such gas purchase contract ma to and/or transportation agreement will expressly so provide. Further, Lessor shall be entitled to toot---a eighteen and one-half percent(18.5%) of the value of any benefits obtained by, or granted to, aNv NO — Lessee from any gas purchaser and/or transporter for the amendment, modification, extension, olllr7 alteration, consolidation, transfer, cancellation or settlement of any gas purchase contract to;!� and/or transportation agreement. ID:12 ^ H. Recovery of Liquid Hydrocarbons: Lessee agrees that before any gas produced from the Leased Premises is used or sold off the Leased Premises, it will be run, free of cost to Lessor, through an adequate oil and gas separator of a conventional type or equipment at least as C:\Users\Jcford\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.Outlook\TBPT5DNY\FOLeaseSmallTract2014-Clean(2).docx (Revised 05/2014) Small-Tract Oil and Gas Lease Page 4 efficient, to the end that all liquid hydrocarbons recoverable from the gas by such means will be recovered on the lease and Lessor properly compensated therefor. I. Excess Payments to Lessor: Any payment of royalty or shut-in gas royalty hereunder paid to • Lessor in excess of the amount actually due to the Lessor shall nevertheless become the property of the Lessor if Lessee does not make written request to Lessor for reimbursement within one (1) year from the date that Lessor received the erroneous payment, it being agreed and expressly understood between the parties hereto that Lessor is not the collecting agent for any other royalty owner under the lands covered hereby, and a determination of the name, interest ownership and whereabouts of any person entitled to any payment whatsoever under the terms hereof shall be the sole responsibility of Lessee. It is further expressly agreed and understood that: (i) this provision shall in no way diminish the obligation of Lessee to make full and punctual payments of all amounts due to Lessor or to any other person under the terms and provisions of this Lease, and (ii) any overpayments made to the Lessor under any provisions of this Lease shall not be entitled to be offset against future amounts payable to parties hereunder. J. Effect of Division Order: The terms of this Lease may not be amended by any division order and the signing of a division order by any mineral owner may not be made a prerequisite to payment of royalty hereunder. K. Limitation of Sale to Subsidiaries and/or Affiliates: Oil, gas or products may not be sold to a subsidiary or affiliate of Lessee as defined herein without the Lessor's prior written permission. L. Royalty Payable on All Gas Produced: Lessee shall pay Lessor royalty on all gas produced from a well on the Leased Premises and sold or used off the Leased Premises, regardless of whether or not such gas is produced to the credit of Lessee or sold under a contract executed by or binding on Lessee. Should gas be sold under a sales contract not binding on Lessee, Lessor's royalty will be calculated based on the highest price paid for any of the gas produced from the well from which such gas is produced. In no event will the price paid Lessor for Lessor's share of gas be less than the price paid Lessee for Lessee's share of gas. 3. LESSOR'S ACCESS TO LEASED PROPERTY AND RECORDS A.
