Is American Energy paying less than HG for same contract? Gross vs.Net?

Does anybody know why AEU payed on 3.17 per MCF in August compared to HG paying on 3.93 in July. Since our original contract was with HG, does AEU not have to honor the HG contract?

Is one paying net and the other gross?

Price depends on the contract negotiated by the producer.  The variability between one producer and another can be enormous.

Thanks, Dexter Green for your reply.

Our lease was with HG. American Energy bought HG. Shouldn't they be bound by the same agreement? We haven't negotiated anything with AE.

Any input on this would be appreciated.

They're bound to pay you in a manner that is consistent with the lease.  But the price you are paid is coming from the price that they are paid, which is based entirely on their own contracts with the commodity buyers.

Tenn., Was the market price the same in both months?

No, it fluctuates daily, but it was never as low as $3.17.
