A top lease is basically a new lease taken before the old one expires and becomes effective on upon expiration of the previous lease.

Your best bet would be to call or write their corporate office (and ask for someone in the Land department):

Chesapeake Energy Corporation
P.O. Box 18496
Oklahoma City, OK 73154-0496
405-935-8000

Could you clarify top lease?  Neighbor has a soon to expire lease; they would like to negotiate one w/ better land protection.  Thanks.
