Shut-in Royalty. If after the primary term one or more xxxxx on the leased premises or lands pooled or unitized therewith are capable of producing Oil and Gas Substances in paying quantities, but such well or xxxxx are either shut in or production therefrom is not being sold by Lessee, such well or xxxxx shall nevertheless be deemed to be producing in paying quantities for the purpose of maintaining this lease. If for a period of 180 consecutive days such well or xxxxx are shut in or production therefrom is not sold by Lessee, then Lessee shall pay an aggregate shut-in royalty of ten dollars per acre then covered by this lease. The payment shall be made to Lessor on or before the first anniversary date of the lease following the end of the 180-day period and thereafter on or before each anniversary while the well or xxxxx are shut in or production therefrom is not being sold by Lessee; provided that if this lease is otherwise being maintained by operations under this lease, or if production is being sold by Lessee from another well or xxxxx on the leased premises or lands pooled or unitized therewith, no shut-in royalty shall be due until the first anniversary date of the lease following the end of the 90-day period after the end of the period next following the cessation of such operations or production, as the case may be. Lessee’s failure to properly pay shut-in royalty shall render Lessee liable for the amount due, but shall not operate to terminate this lease. However, after the expiration of the primary term, this lease may not be maintained in force by the payment of shut in royalties for any period in excess of one (1) consecutive year from the date the well is first shut in.
