• Seller delivered 83.0% NRI on 8,481.53 acres, and 82.5% on remaining 677.31 acres.
• On or before December 15, 2021, MGX will drill a well on the largest of the acquired leases to a TVD of 8,000′ or to a depth sufficient to test the Cane Creek Shale (Cycle 21) of the Paradox Formation. MGX has the option to extend the drilling obligation for an additional three years in exchange for payment of an additional $100,000.
• MGX also has an option to acquire an additional lease covering 1,172.48 acres if and when that lease is issued by the BLM.
