of Nueces County,.Texas, and described in a Deed from Joe
Hroch, Sr. and wife to the City of Corpus Christi, dated
April 1, 1957-
The entire area being leased by the City being approximately
100.32 acres of land.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this lease, no drilling
operations or otherioperations by the Lessee,or his assigns, under authority
of this lease shall be conducted within one hundred feet (100') of the
West Side Sewage Treatment Plant which shall include an area of not ex-
ceeding 25 acres as designated by the City, including al I l buildings, struc-
tures,.valves, settling beds and other facilities used in the operation of
said plant, and being in general that area lying between Greenwood Drive and
the line parallel to the centerline of Greenwood Drive and 820' therefrom and
bounded on the Northeast by Saratoga Road and on the Southwest by a line paral-
lel to the centerline of Saratoga Road a distance of 1320' from said centerline.
In the event a resurvey of said land shall reveal the existence of excess and /or
X
vacant lands lying adjacent to the lands above described and the Lessor, his
heirs or assigns, shall by virtue of his ownership of the lands above des-
cribed, have preference right to acquire said excess and /or vacant lands,
then in that event this lease shall cover and include all such excess and /or
vacant lands which the Lessor, his heirs or assigns, shall have the preference
right to acquire by virtue of his ownership of the lands above described as
and when acquired by the Lessor; and the Lessee shall pay the Lessor for such
excess and /or vacant lands at the same rate per acre as the cash consideration
paid for the acreage hereinabove mentioned.
2. Subject to the other provisions herein contained, this lease
shall be for a term of three (3) years from this date (called "primary term ")
and as long thereafter as oil, gas or other mineral is produced from said land
hereunder.
3. The royalties to be paid Lessor are (a) on oil, one -eigth of
that produced and saved from said land, the same to be delivered at the wells
or to the credit of Lessor into the pipe line to which the wells may be con-
nected; Lessee may from time to time purchase any,royalty oil in its possession,
paying the market price therefor prevailing for the field where produced on the
date of purchase; (b) on gas, including casinghead gas or other gaseous sub-
stance, produced from said land and sold or used off the premises or in the
manufacture of gasoline or other product therefrom, the market value at the
well of one - eighth of the gas so sold or used, provided that-on gas sold at
the wells the royalty shall be one - eighth of the amount realized from such
sale; where gas from a well producing gas only is not sold or used, Lessee may,
for a maximum of three (3) years beyond the primary term, pay as royalty One
Thousand Three and 20100 ($1,003.20) Dollars per well per year, and upon such
payment it will be considered that gas is beiak produced within the meaning of
Paragraph 2 hereof for such period, not exceeding three years beyond the primary
term. Lessee shall have free use of oil and gas from said land, for all oper-
ations hereunder, and the royalty on oil and gas shall be computed after de-
ducting any go used. Lessor shall have the privilege at his risk and expense
of using gas for stoves and inside lights in the principal dwelling thereon out
of any surplus gas not needed for operations hereunder. Lessor is exempt as
-2-
a matter of law from any and all state of Texas severance taxes on oil and
gas, and no deductions shall be made for severance taxes in royalty settle-
ments.
4. Lessee is hereby given the right and power to pool or combine
the land covered by this lease or any portion thereof for gas only with any
other land, lease or leases located adjacent to or contiguous with, when in
Lessee's judgment it is necessary or advisable to do so in order to proper-
ly develop and operate said premises, provided that no unit so created shall
exceed 320 acres in area. If gas production is found on the pooled acreage,
it shall be treated as if production is had from this lease, whether the well
or wells be located on the premises covered by this lease or not. In lieu of
the royalties elsewhere herein specified, Lessor shall receive on production
from a unit so pooled only such portion of the royalty stipulated herein as
the amount of his acreage placed in the unit or his royalty interest therein
bears to the total acreage so pooled in the particular unit involved, but in
no event less than $1,003.20 in any one year.
5. If operations for drilling are not commenced on said land on or
before one year from this date the lease shall terminate as to both parties
unless on or before such anniversary date Lessee shall pay or tender to
Lessor or to the credit of Lessor in Corpus Christi State National Bank
at Corpus Christi, Texas (which Bank and its successors are Lessor's agent
and shall continue as the depository for all rentals payable hereunder re-
gardless of changes in ownership of said land or the rentals) the sum of
Five Hundred One and 601100 Dollars ($5ol.6o), (herein called rental), which
shall cover the privilege of deferring commencement of drilling operations
for a period of twelve (12) months. In like manner and upon like payments or
tenders annually the commencement of drilling operations may be further de-
ferred for successive periods of twelve (12) months each during the primary
term. The payment or tender of rental may be made by the check or draft of
Lessee mailed or delivered to said Bank on or before such date of payment.
If such Bank (or any successor Bank) should fail, liquidate or be succeeded
by another Bank, or for any reason fail or refuse to accept rental, Lessee
shall not be held in default for failure to make such payment or tender of
-3-
rental until thirty (30) days after Lessor shall deliver to Lessee a proper
recordable instrument, naming another Bank as Agent to receive such payments
or tenders. The down cash payment is consideration for this lease according
to its terms and shall not be allocated as mere rental for a period. Lessee
may at any time execute and deliver to Lessor or to the depository above
named or place of record a release or releases covering any portion or por-
tions of the above described premises and thereby surrender this lease as to
such portion or portions and be relieved of all obligations as to the acreage
surrendered, and thereafter the rentals payable hereunder shall be reduced
in the proportion that the acreage covered hereby is reduced by said re-
lease or releases. In this connection the above described premises shall
be treated as comprising 100.32 acres, whether there be more or less. By
the term "operations for drilling" and "drilling operations" is meant the
actual drilling into the earth in a bonafide attempt to discover oil, gas
or other minerals and not merely the placing of materials and /or equipment
on the land.
6. If prior to discovery of oil or gas on said land Lessee should
drill a dry hole or holes thereon, or if after discovery of oil or gas the
production thereof should cease from any cause,'this lease shall not termi-
nate if Lessee commences additional drilling or re- working operations within
sixty (60) days thereafter or (if it be within the primary term) commences
or resumes the payment or tender of rentals on or before the rental paying
date next ensuing after the expiration of three months from date of comple-
tion of dry hole or cessation of production. If-at the expiration of the
primary term oil, gas or other mineral is not being produced on said land
but Lessee is then engaged in drilling or re- working operations thereon, the
lease shall remain in force so long as operations are prosecuted with no
cessation of more than thirty (30) consecutive days, and if they result in
the production of oil or gas so long thereafter as oil or gas is produced
from said land. In the event a well or wells producing oil or gas in pay-
ing quantities should be brought in on adjacent land and within 467 feet
of or draining the leased premises, Lessee agrees to drill such offset
wells as a reasonably prudent operator would drill under the same or simi-
lar circumstances.
-4-
7. Lessee shall have the right at any time during or within
six (6) months of the expiration of this lease to remove all property and
fixtures placed by Lessee on said land, including the right to draw and
remove all casing. Lessee shall bury all pipe lines 36 inches below the
surface, and no well shall be drilled within two hundred (200) feet of
any structure on said land without Lessor's consent.
S. The rights of either party hereunder may be assigned in
whole or in part and the provisions hereof shall extend to the heirs,.suc-
censors and assigns, but no change or divisions in ownership of the land,
rentals, or royalties, however accomplished, shall operate to enlarge the
obligations or diminish the rights of Lessee. No sale or assignment by
Lessor shall be binding on Lessee until Lessee shall be furnished with a
certified copy of recorded instrument evidencing same. In event of assign-
ment of this lease as to a segregated portion of said land, the rentals pay-
able hereunder shall be apportionable as between the several leasehold own-'
ers ratably according to the surface area of each, and default in rental
payment by one shall not affect the rights of other leasehold owners here-
under. If six or more parties become entitled to royalty hereunder, Lessee
may withhold payment thereof unless and until furnished with a recordable
instrument executed by all such parties designating an agent to receive
payment for all.
9. Lessor hereby warrants and agrees to defend the title to
said land and agrees that Lessee at its option may discharge any tax,
mortgage or other lien upon said land and in event Lessee does so, it
shall be subrogated to such lien with the right to enforce same and apply
rentals and royalties accruing hereunder toward satisfying same. Without
impairment of Lessee's rights under the warranty in event of failure of title,
it is agreed that if Lessor owns an interest in said land less than the en-
tire fee simple estate, then the royalties and rentals to be paid Lessor
shall be reduced proportionately.
10. Should Lessee be prevented from complying with any express
or implied covenant of this lease, from conducting drilling or reworking
operations thereon or from producing oil or gas therefrom by reason of scar-
city of or inability to obtain or to use equipment or material, or by oprn%-
-5-
tion of force majeure, any Federal or State law or any order, rule or regu-
lation of governmental authority, then while so prevented through no fault
of Lessee, Lessee's obligation to comply with such covenant shall be sus-
pended, and Lessee shall not be liable in damages for failure to comply
therewith, and this lease shall be extended while and so long as Lessee
is prevented by any such cause from conducting drilling or reworking opera-
tions on or from producing oil or gas from the leased premises and the time
while Lessee is so prevented shall not be counted against Lessee, anything
in this lease to the contrary notwithstanding.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF,.this instrument is executed in duplicate on
the date first above written.
