This requirement should not be construed in any way as a release or recision of the obligations of any surety bonding parties under the requirements of the State oil and gas lease, Board Rules or this assignment. (All lessees are ultimately responsible for the performance under the lease, and default subjects the entire lease to forfeiture not just the interest related to any performance obligation considered to be in default.) A signed original and one copy of each assignment must be filed with the Wyoming State Land and Farm Loan Office. Each assignment, if approved, is recognized by the State as effective as of the date of approval by the Director. Adequate bond must be furnished covering any and all productive zones prior to approval of any assignment of interest in an operating State oil and gas lease, whether wellbores exist on the leased lands or not, and in no case can drilling operations, including to prospectively productive zones under operating leases, begin without a bond first being in place. If there is more than one party in interest to this assignment, then all such parties in interest must sign the document before assignment approval will be given. The appropriate legal description of the conveyed lands interests must be given. Assignments creating a separate (reissue)lease subject to the rules and regulations governing all State of Wyoming Oil & Gas Lease do not change the terms and conditions of the original lease, the lease anniversary date, nor the obligations and anniversary date of the lease created therefrom being considered as if it had been issued on the effective date of the original lease. (See Board Rules, Chapter 6, Section A.) . , Corporations, limited liability companies, and limited partnerships must be qualified with the Wyoming Secretary of State's Office, and general partnership papers are required to be filed with the State Land and Farm Loan Office prior to, and as a condition of Board approval of any assignment. Assignments will not be considered for approval where assignor or any assignee currently has a delinquent (late) royalty or rental payment obligation(s) for any State subsurface resource lease.
