BENAVIDES, Justice.

This appeal involves a gas lease by which appellant (Cabot) was found to have breached its implied duty to reasonably market the gas in issue and was held liable for its failure to pay appellees the market value of their gas royalties. Based upon the jury's answers to special issues, the court awarded appellees damages of $424,083.14, plus attorney's fees of $44,000.00, post-judgment interest, and court costs.
