What is this form?

The Top Lease form is a legal document used in lease transactions to establish additional terms or constraints that may not be included in the standard Oil and Gas Lease provided by the Lessee. This form allows the Lessor to outline specific concerns and limitations regarding the rights granted to the Lessee, ensuring that both parties are aware of any extra provisions that may impact the lease agreement.

Key components of this form

  • Effective Lease Acknowledgment: Identifies any existing Oil and Gas Lease that may affect the new lease.
  • Terms of Effectiveness: Details on when the new lease becomes effective, typically tied to the termination of the prior lease.
  • Subordination Clause: States that this lease is subordinate to any prior leases and will not take effect until they are terminated.
  • Warranties: The Lessor confirms the absence of other leases on the property to prevent conflicts.
  • Timeframe Limitations: Specifies conditions under which the lease will not become effective based on the status of the prior lease.

Situations where this form applies

This form is essential when a Lessor wants to enter a new Oil and Gas Lease while there is already an existing lease in place. It is useful for negotiating the terms of the new lease and addressing concerns that may arise regarding the Lessee's rights or the existing lease terms. For instance, if a Lessor wants to ensure stricter limitations on exploration or production activities, this form allows for such stipulations to be formally documented.

  • Property owners (Lessors) looking to establish a lease agreement for oil and gas extraction.
  • Lessee companies involved in oil and gas operations who need to enter into additional leases.
  • Legal professionals assisting clients with leasing agreements in the oil and gas sector.
