The lease on my property expires in December of this year. No option. There is a new well that just popped up on TRRC that includes me in a pool. My question is: when is a lease considered exercised? When the rig is permitted? When production begins? I am getting 20% under the current lease and would insist on 25 if I could renew it prior to it becoming effective.

Your lease will have to be analyzed to be certain, but I would wager that your lease states that your lease is held by being pooled, either before or after production has been attained.

I would say look at your lease. I would bet paragraph 6 perhaps:
