Proxy Materials



The Registrants notice of annual meeting of unitholders, management information circular and proxy statement (Circular) and instrument of proxy all filed in connection with the Registrants annual general meeting on May 9, 2005 have been previously filed on Form 6K.  A few changes were made to the Circular since its filing on Form 6K.  A revised Circular is attached to this Form 40-F/A as Exhibit 99.5.



DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Registrant's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 15a-15(e) under the Act) as of December 31, 2004.  Based on that evaluation, the Registrants Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as the Registrant did not file its Form 40-F in a timely fashion for the year ended December 31, 2004.



During the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in the Registrants internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrants internal control over financial reporting.



It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events.  Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.



AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT



The Board of Directors of the Registrants administrator, Paramount Energy Operating Corp., has determined that Mr. Jack Peltier is an audit committee financial expert (as defined in paragraph 8(b) of General Instruction B to Form 40-F/A).  Mr. Peltier is Chair

of the audit committee.  Mr. Peltier would be considered an independent director within the meaning set out in Canadian legislation, specifically Multilateral Instrument 51-110 Audit Committees, and he would be considered independent as defined in Rule 10A-3(b) under the Act.



CODE OF ETHICS



The Trust has a code of ethics (as that term is defined in paragraph 9 of General Instruction B to Form 40-F/A) in place that applies to its principal executive officer and principal financial officer as well as all of its directors, officers, employees and consultants and in. The current code of ethics, referred to as the Registrants Code of Business Conduct, is attached as Exhibit 99.6, is dated July 14, 2005 and is posted on the Registrant's website at www.paramountnenergy.com.



The Registrants previously filed code of ethics was amended on February 14, 2005 to, among other things:



1.

clarify that directors are also subject to the code of ethics;



2.

remind officers, directors, employees and consultants of the Registrants disclosure obligations under securities laws and requiring those individuals to act so as to promote compliance with those obligations; and



3.

require employees, officers, directors and consultants to certify compliance and report any exceptions to the code of ethics to the Chief Financial Officer.  The chain of reporting after a report of a violation to the Chief Financial Officer is set out in the code of ethics.



The February 14, 2005 version of the code of ethics was further amended on July 14, 2005 to, among other things, include a detailed description of the Registrants whistleblower program.



Since the adoption of the code of ethics, in its current form and in its previously filed form, there have not been any waivers, including implicit waivers, from any provision of the code. The Registrant will post on its website any amendment to, or waiver of, a provision of its code of ethics within four business days following the date of any such amendment or waiver.

Audit Committee Approval



The Administrators audit committee has adopted policies and procedures with respect to the pre-approval of audit and permitted non-audit services to be provided by its principal accountant, KPMG LLP.  The policies and procedures sufficiently detail the particular services to be provided to ensure that (i) the audit committee knows precisely what services it is being asked to pre-approve and (ii) it is not necessary for any member of management to make a judgment as to whether a proposed service fits within the pre-approved services.



The audit committee must pre-approve the provision of permitted services by its principal accountant which are outside of the pre-approved policies and procedures discussed above, including the fees and terms of the proposed services.  Prohibited services may not be pre-approved by the audit committee.



For 2004 and 2003, all of the audit and permitted non-audit services described above were pre-approved under the audit committees policies and procedures.



OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS



The Registrant has no material off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
