<p>The Market Enhancement clause essentially negates the gross royalty/deduction-free language, and the fact that Antero offers such language as if it is somehow a compromise should indicate how dishonest their practices are. It is simply a bait-and-switch. </p>

<p>I was just told that "TRN3" means transportation to get a better price. This is supposed to be allowed under the Market Enhancement type clause.</p>
<p>The "PRC2" is a charge for gas which contains natural gas liquids where they take this gas which can't be processed as methane because of the extra NGL and process out the NGL. There is a charge (PRC2) for this which is a deduction. There is a payment for the NGL which Antero calls "PPR" (plant products). This is also supposed to be allowed…</p>

<p>I am not an attorney so I am not sure how legal all this is if the company were challenged. However there are a lot of attorneys who negotiate Market Enhancement Clauses.</p>

<p>If you happen to know a law firm that wants to put together a class action against them in Ohio, I would eagerly line up. They have been taking enormous deductions from me for years. The average for 2020 YTD is 60%, with the high being 83%.</p>

<p>Antero is a horrible company. I have worked with numerous operators, and these people are vultures. For example, they took 83% deductions in my May statement. I would negotiate hard and get the most rock solid lease you possibly can.</p>

<p>The kicker is these crooks have their own midstream company, so I suspect that they are taking even more of my money by either selling to their own midstream company at a reduced cost, or having their midstream company charge their production company high prices for their transportation/services.

<p>Their deductions on my lease are egregious compared to other royalties I receive. Make sure your lease is ABSOLUTELY bulletproof and they cannot deduct for anything.</p>

<p>I just looked it up for you, their deductions from my royalties this year, year to date, are 50%! Watch out for these crooks! They will bend you over every chance they get!</p>
