Generally they are going to want a 3 year lease. either delete the option or ask for and option payment of equal to the original lease. should be at least 25% royaly but you could ask for more. do yourself a big favor and have your own lease drawn up. if not you will loose thousands of dollars in royalty due to well costs etc.
