We had a landowners group of about 30,000acres collectively. Many of us found out that many of those acres were held by production. Lease was very landowner friendly with 5000.00 acre signing bonus and 20% royalties.  It was originally with Shell then they flipped it all to AEU which turned it over to Ascent.  

My lease expires in October this year. A land man from Purple was offering 1000.00 per mineral acre for one year lease and wanted to make changes to the original that would not benefit the land owner.
