Negotiations with a practically unknown company

A couple weeks ago a landman contacted me about negotiating a lease with M L Benedum, LLC, who is very interested in doing business in Desota Parish; after talking with the company reps, I was impressed with the ease at which our negotiations have gone but I am concern that they are a little known untested oil production company with, to my knowledge, absolutely no track record. Has anyone done business with this company? If so, what is your impression? Who has even heard of them? What are the pros and cons of doing business with such a company?

Tuscaloosa Trend Sits On Top Of Poorest Neighbourhood For Decades - Yet No Royalties Ever Paid To The Community -- Why??

In researching the decades-old Tuscaloosa Trend and the immense wealth it has generated for many, I find it deeply troubling that this resource-rich formation runs directly beneath one of the poorest communities in North Baton Rouge—near Southern University, Louisiana—yet neither the university ( that I am aware of)  nor local residents appear to have received any compensation for the minerals extracted from their land.

This area has suffered immense environmental degradation…
