The Company will make an initial payment of $5,000,000 to secure the option, with a $1,000,000 payment required for each extension. If the purchase option is exercised during the option term, the Company can acquire all or part of the pipeline assets at $155 per linear foot, with credits that could reduce the final purchase price depending on when the option is exercised. Additionally, the Company holds a right of first refusal to purchase the pipeline assets during the option term if the current owners receive a third-party offer for all or a portion of the remaining pipeline assets.
