• Annual rent will be calculated as a percentage of the lessee's actual annual gross sales from wind energy production.
• The parties will share the cost of constructing any necessary access roads.
• The landowner will not construct or erect anything on the land that may negatively impact the output or efficiency of the wind farm.
