 In 1143 a settlement was reached in which Raymond Berengar IV of Barcelona gave the castle at Belchite to the Templars "according as [they could] best come to terms" with its lord, Lope Sanz (Sánchez), who was the "princeps" and "rector" of the confraternity in 1136.The confraternity was to have its headquarters either at Belchite or any other suitable fortress in the frontier beyond Zaragoza.It was granted all booty it could seize from the Muslims and exempted from the "quinta", the fifth of the booty traditionally owed to the sovereign.
