Description

If the minerals have been severed from the surface of lands, with the mineral estate, in many states, being the dominate estate, the mineral owner has the right to make use of as much of the surface as is reasonably necessary to develop those minerals. If the minerals have been leased, and the surface owner desires the lessee not to enter on specific lands, the surface owner may obtain a subordination from the mineral lessee to that effect. This form addresses that situation. Oregon Subordination by Lessee of Right to Use All or Part of Surface Estate is a legal agreement pertaining to the use of surface estate by lessees in the state of Oregon. This arrangement involves the lessee voluntarily relinquishing their right to use all or a portion of the surface estate to a higher-ranking interest, typically in the form of a mortgage or another leasehold interest. This subordination ensures that the rights of the higher-ranking interest are protected and prioritized. There are various types of Oregon Subordination by Lessee of Right to Use All or Part of Surface Estate, including: 1. Subordination by Lessee to Mortgagee: This type of subordination occurs when a lessee willingly agrees to subordinate its right to use the surface estate to a mortgagee. By doing so, the mortgagee's interest in the property gains priority over the lessee's rights. This is usually done to facilitate mortgage financing for the surface estate. 2. Subordination by Lessee to Other Leasehold Interest: In this scenario, a lessee chooses to subordinate their right to use the surface estate to another leasehold interest. This could happen when the lessee wants to lease out a portion of the property to a third party or when there are multiple leases on the same surface estate. By subordinating to the other leasehold interest, the lessee acknowledges that the other lease has a higher priority. 3. Partial Subordination by Lessee: Sometimes, a lessee may only wish to subordinate a portion of their rights to a higher-ranking interest. This could occur, for example, when a lessee intends to use a specific area of the surface estate for a particular purpose, while subordinating the rest to a different party. This type of subordination allows for flexibility in land-use arrangements. 4. Temporary Subordination by Lessee: This type of subordination involves a lessee temporarily subordinating their rights to another party. It could be necessary when there is a construction project or any other situation that requires temporary access or use of the surface estate by a third party. Once the temporary need is fulfilled, the lessee's rights are reinstated. Overall, Oregon Subordination by Lessee of Right to Use All or Part of Surface Estate is a legal mechanism that allows for the prioritization and coordination of interests in the surface estate. It ensures that the rights of higher-ranking interests, such as mortgagees or other leaseholders, are safeguarded, providing clarity and stability in land-use arrangements.
