Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions (see General Instruction A.2. below): |_| Written communications pursuant to Rule 425 under the Securities Act (17 CFR 230.425) |_| Soliciting material pursuant to Rule 14a-12 under the Exchange Act (17 CFR 240.14a-12) |_| Pre-commencement communications pursuant to Rule 14d-2(b) under the Exchange Act (17 CFR 240.14d-2(b)) |_| Pre-commencement communications pursuant to Rule 13e-4(c) under the Exchange Act (17 CFR 240.13e-4(c)) Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation On January 31, 2006, Aurora Antrim North, L.L.C. ("North"), a wholly owned borrowing subsidiary of our subsidiary, Aurora Energy, Ltd., entered into a line of credit facility with BNP Paribas ("BNP"). As reflected in our Form 8-K filing on February 6, 2006, the initial credit availability on this facility was $40 million. On July 14, 2006, the Credit Agreement between BNP and North was amended in two respects. The credit availability was increased to $50 million. In addition, the trailing 12-month interest coverage ratio covenant was amended to defer the testing until the fourth quarter of 2006, and to provide for a reduced ratio for that quarter. The latter amendment was intended to correct a previous error in the covenant, which failed to account for the fact that the O.I.L. acquisition in the first quarter of 2006 would not have a full trailing 12 months of cash flow included in our financial statements until the first quarter of 2007. This amendment supersedes the waiver described in our first quarter ending March 31, 2006, Form 10-QSB filing. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, we are required to hedge a certain portion of our forecasted production. Thus, as noted in our Form 10-QSB for the first quarter ending March 31, 2006, we entered into a financial swap contract with BNP for 5,000 MMBTU of natural gas per day for the period from April 1, 2006 through March 31, 2007, at a fixed price of $8.59 per MMBTU. As a condition to the amendment, we entered into another financial swap contract with BNP on July 14, 2006 for 5,000 MMBTU of natural gas per day for the period from April 1, 2007 through December 31, 2008, at a fixed price of $9.00 per MMBTU. The purpose of these financial swap contracts is to provide a measure of stability to the Company's cash flows in meeting our financial obligations while operating in a volatile gas market environment. SIGNATURES According to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1939, the Registrant had duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized on July 19, 2006.
