Disclaimer

In this slide presentation, statements regarding our goals and objectives, our expected
methods of operation and development strategies, our expected and potential production
volumes, the volume of potential reserves, potential drilling locations, the timing of drilling
activities, when wells will begin producing, how many wells will be drilled, potential new
development theatres, the spacing of wells, drilling and operating costs, and other
statements that are not historical facts, contain predictions, estimates and other Forward-
Looking Statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  Although we believe that our
expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our
goals will be achieved.  Important factors that could cause our actual results to differ
materially from those included in the Forward-Looking Statements include the timing and
extent of changes in commodity prices for oil and gas, changes in market demand, drilling
and operating risks, the availability of drilling rigs, uncertainties about the estimates of
reserves, the availability of transportation pipelines, changes in laws or government
regulations, unforeseen engineering and mechanical or technological difficulties in drilling
and operating the wells, operating hazards, weather related delays, the loss of existing
credit facilities, availability of capital, and other risks more fully described in our filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission, including Form 10-KSB filed March 31, 2006.  We
may also change our business focus as new opportunities arise.  All Forward-Looking
Statements contained in this presentation, including any forecasts and estimates, are based
on management’s outlook only as of the date of this presentation and we undertake no
obligation to update or revise these Forward-Looking Statements, whether as a result of
subsequent developments or otherwise.

Antrim and New Albany Shale Plays

Relatively shallow blanket
shale formations

High-upside, lower-risk
development potential

Technologies to Cope with Reservoir Risk

The Antrim Shale and New Albany Shale are “blanket”
formations covering significant areas of the Michigan
and Illinois Basins.  Dry holes are rare.

  Nevertheless, there are inherent reservoir risks.

What tools are being used to detect risky drilling areas?

Identification of Antrim Shale Scours

The Antrim Shale is partially or totally absent
in localized areas where ancient rivers and
glaciers have carved through the bedrock

This results in the drilling of dry holes unless
the scours can be identified in advance

Illustration of Antrim Shale Scours

Gravity Survey

Seismic can be used to
identify scours, but gravity
surveys provide an
inexpensive alternative

Antrim Shale Fracture Stimulations

How has Aurora optimized stimulations
of vertical Antrim Shale wells?

Primary Objectives:

Contact all potential pay

Reduce gel loadings to maximize fracture
conductivity

Operational Efficiencies

How has Aurora optimized the
production infrastructure for Antrim
Shale wells?

Primary Objectives:

Minimize back
pressure to maximize
gas desorption

Minimize
environmental
exposure

Operational Efficiencies
Low Pressure Gathering Systems

10" Poly Pipe used as flow
lines for gas and water

Use of Large Diameter Poly Pipe

Operational Efficiencies
Low Pressure Gathering Systems

Separate systems for gas and water

Gas and water lines

prior to burial

Operational Efficiencies
Low Pressure Gathering Systems

Flowline Sumps

Some water is entrained in
gas flowing from wells to
facilities

In areas of extreme
elevation changes, water
tends to collect in low spots

Electric water sumps are
installed to transfer water
from gas flowlines to water
flowlines in areas of difficult
access

This enables us to maintain
low wellhead pressures and
reduce frequency of pigging

Operational Efficiencies
Low Pressure Production Facilities

Reciprocating Compressors

Large size of units precludes
throughput flexibility

Typically up to 4 stages of
compression

days

Horizontal Drilling Premise
New Albany Shale

Large vertical fractures

Predominant fracture orientation is E-W

Occurrence of N-S fracturing is limited

Horizontal drilling is the only effective means
to connect fracture planes

Orthogonal Vertical Fractures

Non-uniform Spacing

Characteristics of Natural Fractures
New Albany Shale

Vertical Well with
Fracture Stimulation

Horizontal Well

Drilling & Completion Objectives
New Albany Shale

Avoid plugging of natural fractures while drilling

Complete laterals open hole with no stimulation

Recover gas reserves from all organic members

Optimize drilling geometry and pump
selection/placement for water removal and
reduction of back pressure

Minimize surface footprint and optimize access to
locations
