      IT
APPEARING and the Court having found and determined that:

      Jurisdiction and
Notice

      A.           This
Court has jurisdiction over these Cases, the Plan, and the confirmation of same
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334.  Venue of these Cases in this
District is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409.

       

      B.           The
Disclosure Statement Order has become a Final Order.

       

      C.           Due,
proper, and adequate notice of the date and time for voting on, and for filing
objections to, the Plan and of the date and time of the Confirmation Hearing was
given pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 2002(b)(2) and the Disclosure Statement
Order.

       

      D.           Due,
proper, and adequate notice of the deadline for filing any objections to cure
amounts with respect to executory contracts to be assumed by the Debtors under
the Plan was provided by the sending to all appropriate parties of that certain
Notice Regarding (A) Executory Contracts to be Assumed, (B) Amounts Required to
Cure Any Defaults Thereunder, and (C) Related Procedures, dated November 5, 2009
(the “Cure Notice”).

       

      E.           The
Plan was properly and timely transmitted to Holders of Impaired Claims in
Classes 2A, 2B, 3A, and 3B of the Plan that were entitled to vote to accept or
reject the Plan in accordance with the requirements of the Bankruptcy Code and
this Court’s orders, including the Disclosure Statement Order, and votes on the
Plan were properly solicited and tabulated.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -2-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      F.           The
notices given pursuant to the Disclosure Statement Order or otherwise by the
Debtors with respect to the Plan, the Plan Documents, and the Transactions (as
defined below) provided adequate disclosure within the meaning of Bankruptcy
Code § 1125.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, due,
proper, and adequate notice was given, pursuant to the Disclosure Statement
Order and through filing and service of the Cure Notice or otherwise, to each
non-Debtor party to any Executory Contract to be assumed by the Debtors under
the Plan (as set forth on Exhibit D to the Disclosure Statement or otherwise in
the Plan or the Disclosure Statement) of (i) the proposed default amount owed
(if any) under the applicable Executory Contract and (ii) the last date by which
such non-Debtor party may file an objection or other response with respect to
such proposed default amount.  All known creditors received a notice
of the Confirmation Hearing and, where appropriate, a Ballot expressly referring
to and describing the release provisions in Plan Section 9.6.

      Good-Faith
Solicitation

       

      G.           The
solicitation of votes on the Plan was conducted appropriately and in good faith
within the meaning of Bankruptcy Code §§ 1125 and 1126, all other provisions of
the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rules 3017 and 3018, the Disclosure Statement,
and all other applicable rules, laws, and regulations, and the Released Parties
are entitled to the protections afforded by Bankruptcy Code § 1125(e) and the
exculpation provisions set forth in Plan Section 9.9.

       

      
        
          
             


          

          
            -3-

      I.           For
the reasons set forth below, such objections are overruled or are otherwise
resolved in the manner set forth herein.

      Plan of
Reorganization

       

      J.           The
Plan complies with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including
Bankruptcy Code §§ 1122 and 1123, and the Bankruptcy Rules, in accordance with
Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(1).

       

      K.           The
classification of Claims and Interests in Article II of the Plan satisfies the
requirements of Bankruptcy Code § 1122.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -4-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      L.           Article
II of the Plan adequately designates classes of Claims and Interests, in
accordance with Bankruptcy Code § 1123(a)(1), other than Administrative Claims,
DIP Facility Claims, and Tax Claims, which Claims are not required to be
designated into classes under Bankruptcy Code § 1123(a)(1).

       

      M.           Article
IV of the Plan specifies the unimpaired Classes, in accordance with Bankruptcy
Code § 1123(a)(2).

       

      N.           Article
V of the Plan specifies the treatment of each impaired Class of Claims or
Interests, in accordance with Bankruptcy Code § 1123(a)(3).

       

      O.           The
Plan provides the same economic treatment of each Claim or Interest in a
particular Class, except to the extent that Holders of particular Claims or
Interests have agreed to a less favorable treatment of such particular Claims or
Interests, in accordance with Bankruptcy Code § 1123(a)(4).

       

      P.           The
Plan provides adequate means for its implementation in accordance with
Bankruptcy Code § 1123(a)(5), including, among other things: the issuance of the
New Secured Notes, the Working Capital Loans Notes, the New Aurora Preferred
Stock, the New Aurora Common Stock, and the New Warrants; the vesting of the
property of the respective Estates of the Debtors in the applicable Reorganized
Debtors; and the execution and delivery of the Exit Credit
Facility.  The Plan and all of the transactions contemplated therein
and to be consummated thereunder and in the Plan Documents (collectively, the
“Transactions”) are supported by the sound exercise of the Debtors’ business
judgment and are in the best interests of their Estates and
Creditors.

       

      Q.           Plan
Section 6.4(a) provides for the amendment and restatement of the articles of
incorporation of Aurora and of the limited liability company agreement of HPPC
(copies of which were filed as part of the Plan Supplement) to ensure compliance
with Bankruptcy Code § 1123(a)(6).

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -5-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      R.           Plan
Section 6.1 provides for the selection of officers and directors of the
Reorganized Debtors and successors thereto in a manner consistent with the
interests of Creditors and Interest Holders and with public policy, in
accordance with Bankruptcy Code § 1123(a)(7).

       

      S.           The
Debtors have complied with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, in
accordance with Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(2).

       

      T.           The
Plan has been proposed in good faith and not by any means forbidden by law, in
accordance with Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(3).

       

      U.           Except
to the extent otherwise provided in the Plan, and pursuant to previous orders of
this Court, any payment made or to be made by the Debtors, or by any Person
issuing securities or acquiring property under the Plan, for services or for
costs and expenses in or in connection with these Cases or in connection with
the Plan and incident to these Cases to be paid by the Debtors, has been
approved by, or is subject to the approval of, this Court as reasonable, in
accordance with Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(4).

       

      V.           At
or prior to the Confirmation Hearing, the identity and affiliations of the
individuals proposed to serve, after confirmation of the Plan, as a director or
officer of the Reorganized Debtors were disclosed to this Court, in satisfaction
of the Debtors’ obligations with respect thereto under Plan Section 6.1, and the
appointment to, such office of such individuals is consistent with the interests
of Creditors and Interest Holders and with public policy, in accordance with
Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(5)(A).

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -6-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      W.           The
Debtors have disclosed the identity of any insider that may be employed or
retained by the Reorganized Debtors, and the nature of any compensation for such
insider, in accordance with Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(5)(B).

       

      X.           There
are no rate changes provided for in the Plan, in accordance with Bankruptcy Code
§ 1129(a)(6).

       

      Y.           With
respect to each impaired Class of Claims and each Class of Interests under the
Plan, each Holder of a Claim or Interest in such Class (i) has accepted the Plan
or (ii) will receive or retain under the Plan on account of such Claim or
Interest property of a value, as of the Effective Date of the Plan, that is not
less than the amount that such Holder would so receive or retain if the Debtors
were liquidated under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code on such date, in
accordance with Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(7).  No Creditor has made an
election pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 1111(b)(2).

       

      Z.           With
respect to Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(8), each Class of Claims under the Plan,
other than those Classes of Claims and Interests that have been deemed to reject
the Plan, has voted to accept the Plan or the Claims in such Class are not
impaired under the Plan.  Classes 1, 2C, and 2D are not impaired under
the Plan, and are thus conclusively presumed to have voted to accept the
Plan.  Classes 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 4, 5, and 6 are impaired under the
Plan.  Each of the four Classes entitled to vote with respect to the
Plan, Classes 2A, 2B, 3A, and 3B (collectively, the “Voting Classes”), has voted
to accept the Plan.  Because Classes 4, 5, and 6 neither receive nor
retain any property under the Plan (other than as set forth in Plan Section 5.7
with respect to Class 5 Intercompany Claims), they are deemed to have rejected
the Plan under Bankruptcy Code § 1126(g), and the requirements of Bankruptcy
Code § 1129(a)(8) have not been met, thereby requiring application of Bankruptcy
Code § 1129(b).  As more fully set forth in the next paragraph of this
Order, the Plan satisfies Bankruptcy Code § 1129(b) with respect to all
applicable impaired Classes.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -7-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      AA.           The
Plan does not discriminate unfairly and is fair and equitable with respect to
Claims or Interests (as applicable) in Classes 4, 5, and 6, in that no Holders
of any Claim or Interest junior to the Claims or Interests (as applicable) of
such Classes of Claims or Interests will receive or retain any property under
the Plan on account of such junior Claim or Interest, in accordance with
Bankruptcy Code § 1129(b)(2)(B).

       

      BB.           Where
applicable, except to the extent that the Holder of a particular Claim has
agreed to less favorable treatment of such Claim, the Plan provides
that:

       

      i.           on
the later of (i) the Initial Distribution Date (which the Plan defines as “[a]
date not later than 30 days after the Effective Date (or as soon thereafter as
is practicable) or such other date as the Bankruptcy Court may order”) and (ii)
the date that is 10 days after the Allowance Date, each Holder of a Claim of a
kind specified in Bankruptcy Code § 507(a)(2) or 507(a)(3) shall receive on
account of such Claim Cash equal to the Allowed amount of such Claim, in
accordance with Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(9)(A);

       

      ii.           each
Holder of a Claim arising under Bankruptcy Code § 507(a)(1), 507(a)(4),
507(a)(5), 507(a)(6), or 507(a)(7), if any, shall receive on account of such
Claim a Cash payment of a value, as of the Effective Date, equal to the Allowed
amount of such Claim, in accordance with Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(9)(B);
and

       

      iii.           each
Holder of a Claim arising under Bankruptcy Code § 507(a)(8), if any, shall
receive on account of such Claim either (i) Cash equal to the amount of such
Allowed Claim on the later of (a) the Initial Distribution Date and (b) the date
that is 30 days after the Allowance Date, except to the extent such Holder has
agreed to a less favorable treatment of such Allowed Claim, or (ii) in
accordance with Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(9)(C), deferred Cash payments (a) of a
value, as of the Effective Date, equal to the amount of such Allowed Tax Claim,
(b) over a period not exceeding five years after the Petition Date, and (c) in a
manner not less favorable than the treatment of the most favored nonpriority
unsecured Claim provided for by the Plan, except to the extent such Holder has
agreed to a less favorable treatment of such Allowed Claim.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -8-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      CC.           At
least one Class of Claims or Interests that is impaired has accepted the Plan,
determined without including any acceptance of the Plan by any insider, in
accordance with Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(10).  All four of the
impaired Classes that were eligible to vote with respect to the Plan (Classes
2A, 2B, 3A, and 3B) voted to accept the Plan.

       

      DD.           The
Plan is feasible.  Based on the assumptions set forth in the
Memorandum in Support of Confirmation of the Debtors’ Plan, the Edlein
Affidavit, and Exhibit B to the Disclosure Statement, confirmation of the Plan
is not likely to be followed by the liquidation, or the need for further
financial reorganization, of the Debtors or any successors thereof, in
accordance with Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(11).  There is a reasonable
prospect that the Debtors will meet their financial obligations under the
Plan.  Edlein Affidavit, ¶ 6; Perry Affidavit, ¶ 10.

       

      EE.           All
fees payable under 28 U.S.C. § 1930 have been paid or will be paid pursuant to
the Plan, in accordance with Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(12).

       

      FF.           The
Debtors do not maintain any retiree benefits as that term is defined in
Bankruptcy Code § 1114, making Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(13)
inapplicable.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -9-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      GG.           The
Debtors are not individuals, making Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(14)–(15) inapplicable in these
Cases.

       

      HH.           Because
the Debtors are commercial corporations, Bankruptcy Code § 1129(a)(16) is
inapplicable.

       

      II.           The
Debtors’ respective decisions regarding the rejection or assumption of the
Executory Contracts as provided in and contemplated by the Plan and herein are
based on and are within the sound business judgment of the Debtors and are in
the best interests of the Debtors and their respective Estates.

       

      JJ.           The
conditions to confirmation set forth in Plan Section 8.1 have been satisfied in
that (a) this Court has entered the Disclosure Statement Order that approves the
Disclosure Statement as containing adequate information pursuant to Bankruptcy
Code § 1125, and such order has not been reversed, stayed, amended, or modified
in any manner adverse to the Debtors or their Estates, and (b) this Order is
acceptable, in form and substance, to the Debtors and to the Administrative
Agents.

       

      KK.           The
discharge, release, indemnification, exculpation, and related provisions set
forth in the Plan, including Sections 9.6, 9.7, and 9.9 thereof, and herein are
fair to the Debtors’ Creditors, Interest Holders, and other parties-in-interest,
and are necessary to the successful reorganization of the Debtors; in addition,
no party-in-interest filed an objection to any such provision.  The
release by the Debtors on their own behalf and on behalf of certain third
parties pursuant to this Order and Plan Section 9.7 are appropriate and worthy
of approval.  There is an identity of interest between the Debtors and
certain of the Released Parties; the Released Parties have made a substantial
contribution to the Debtors’ reorganization; certain of the Released Parties
have provided consideration for the releases in the form of waived or modified
Claims or by making cash payments to the Estates, among other things; the
releases are necessary to the effectuation of the compromises and settlements
embodied in the Plan and to the success of the Debtors’ rehabilitation under the
Plan; the Plan has been accepted by all four of the Voting Classes (2A, 2B, 3A,
and 3B); and the compromises and settlements contained in the Plan upon which
certain of the releases are premised will allow for distributions to certain
Creditors that would not otherwise be available to such Creditors under the
applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -10-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      LL.           In
addition, because the Lawson & Kidd Payment was timely made to the Debtors,
such payment is in full settlement of any and all claims or causes of action
that the Debtors, the Estates, or any Non-Debtor Releasing Parties may have
against Lawson & Kidd, LLP, or its principals or any other related
Person.

       

      MM.                      The
Debtors investigated potential claims against their officers, directors, and
other insiders, and determined that they are generally not meritorious in the
context of these cases or otherwise not economically feasible to
pursue.  Rather, the global resolution provided for in the Plan,
whereby the general unsecured creditors of Aurora would receive their pro rata
share of $350,000 and those of HPPC would receive their pro rata share of
$50,000, and the Claims against such third parties would be released to the
extent provided for in the Plan, is in the best interest of the Debtors, their
Estates, and their Creditors.

       

      NN.           Certain
officers have agreed to waive their claims under the “change-in-control”
provisions of their contracts in exchange for a lower payment under the
applicable management transition services agreements to be entered into on the
Effective Date.  Moreover, the Debtors’ officers and directors have
not asserted any Proofs of Claim for indemnification.  In addition,
the Lawson & Kidd Payment was made on or about November 25,
2009.  Each of these payments and/or other agreements or waivers
represent a fair and reasonable compromise of any potential claims that could be
asserted against such parties, and therefore justify, in addition to the work
these parties have performed to bring about the reorganization contemplated in
the Plan, and support the releases and related provisions provided for in the
Plan with respect thereto.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -11-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      OO.           The
principal purpose of the Plan is not the avoidance of taxes or of the
requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, and no governmental
unit has requested that this Court deny confirmation on such basis, thus
satisfying the requirements of Bankruptcy Code § 1129(d).  Also, the
Debtors will satisfy all Allowed Tax Claims in the manner provided for in Plan
Section 3.3.

      Frontier
Pleadings

       

      PP.           On
October 22, 2009, Frontier Energy, LLC (“Frontier”) filed a motion (the
“Frontier Motion”) with the Bankruptcy Court seeking, among other things, entry
of an order declaring that the two oil and gas leases between Frontier and
Aurora (the “Frontier Leases”) are unexpired leases of non-residential property
subject to, and governed, by Bankruptcy Code § 365.  (Docket No.
387).  In the Frontier Motion, Frontier asserts, among other things,
that Aurora was delinquent on the Petition Date in the payment of royalties
under the Frontier Leases in the amount of $1,446,772.42 (the “Frontier Asserted
Pre-Petition Claim”).  The Frontier Motion further alleges that Aurora
is delinquent in the payment of royalties due after the filing date, which
Frontier currently alleges is in the approximate amount of $30,674 (the
“Frontier Asserted Post-Petition Claim”).  Frontier asserts that the
Frontier Asserted Pre-Petition Claim and the Frontier Asserted Post-Petition
Claim are monetary defaults which must be cured under Bankruptcy Code § 365 if
the Frontier Leases are to be assumed.  Frontier further asserts that
the Frontier Asserted Post-Petition Claim constitutes an administrative expense
that must be paid in full if the Plan is confirmed whether or not the Frontier
Leases are assumed.  On November 24, 2009, the Debtors filed a Brief
in Opposition to the Frontier Motion (the “Frontier Opposition”) (Docket No.
508), in which they assert, among other things, that the Frontier Asserted
Pre-Petition Claim is a pre-petition unsecured claim and that the Frontier
Leases are not leases or executory contracts under Bankruptcy Code §
365.  The Frontier Opposition also disputes the amount of the Frontier
Asserted Pre-Petition Claim and the Frontier Asserted Post-Petition
Claim.  On December 1, 2009, Frontier filed a Response to the Frontier
Opposition.  (Docket No. 514).

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -12-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      QQ.           On
November 17, 2009, the Debtors filed a Motion for Estimation of Claims of
Frontier Energy LLC Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 502(c) (the “Estimation Motion”)
(Docket No. 482) seeking, among other things, to have the Bankruptcy Court
determine for all purposes the amount and priority of the Frontier Asserted
Pre-Petition Claim and the Frontier Asserted Post-Petition Claim (collectively,
the “Frontier Lease Indebtedness”).  On November 29, 2009, Frontier
filed an Objection to the Estimation Motion (the “Estimation Objection”) (Docket
No. 511), and on December 2, 2009, the Debtors filed a Reply Brief to the
Estimation Objection. (Docket No. 517).

       

      RR.           The
Frontier Motion and the Estimation Motion were scheduled for hearing before this
Court on December 3, 2009; however, on December 2, 2009, Frontier and the
Debtors agreed to adjourn the hearings until a date after the Confirmation
Hearing to permit Frontier and Aurora to continue settlement negotiations and,
if such negotiations are unsuccessful, to have the Court determine the issues
raised in the Frontier Motion and the Estimation Motion.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -13-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      SS.           Frontier
has also filed a Proof of Claim against HPPC (Claim No. 375) asserting that the
Frontier Asserted Pre-Petition Claim is an unsecured claim against HPPC, and an
amended Proof of Claim against Aurora (Claim No. 436), which amended Claim No.
376, asserting that the Frontier Asserted Pre-Petition Claim is secured by
various assets of Aurora.  On November 10, 2009, the Debtors filed an
omnibus objection to each of the Proofs of Claim filed by Frontier against the
Debtors (the “Frontier Omnibus Objection”) (Docket No. 432).  On
December 3, 2009, Frontier filed its Response to the Frontier Omnibus Objection
(Docket No. 523), in which it, among other things, withdrew Claim No.
375.  A hearing with respect to the Frontier Omnibus Objection has
been scheduled for January 5, 2009, but shall be rescheduled to the date of the
hearings on the Frontier Motion and the Estimation Motion.

       

      THEREFORE,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED that:

       

      General Provisions Regarding
Plan Approval and Authorizations

       

      1.           The
findings of this Court as set forth herein shall constitute findings of fact and
conclusions of law pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 7052, which is applicable to this
matter by virtue of Bankruptcy Rule 9014.

       

      2.           The
Plan, all exhibits thereto, and all provisions, terms, and conditions thereof,
are hereby confirmed in all respects, and all provisions thereof are
incorporated herein by reference.

       

      3.           To
the extent not withdrawn prior to the entry of this Order, all objections to the
confirmation of the Plan that were filed have been resolved, are resolved by the
relief granted herein, or are hereby overruled and denied with prejudice; provided, however, that the
objections to Plan confirmation filed by the Michigan Department of Natural
Resources and Frontier shall be deemed resolved in the manner as provided for in
Paragraphs 22-25 herein.  Objections that have been withdrawn or not
pursued at the Confirmation Hearing, if any, are hereby deemed withdrawn with
prejudice.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -14-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      4.           On
and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors are hereby authorized and
empowered to perform those responsibilities, duties, and obligations set forth
herein and in the Plan, including, without limitation, making distributions as
provided under the Plan, objecting to the allowance of any Claim or Interest,
and prosecuting any litigation pertaining thereto, paying such Claims or
Interests as may be later Allowed, as contemplated by the dispute resolution
procedures contained in Plan Section 6.10, and overseeing and governing the
continuing affairs and operations of the Reorganized Debtors on a going-forward
basis.

       

      5.           All
notices previously provided by the Debtors in connection with, or otherwise
relating to, the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, the Executory Contracts to be
assumed (and any proposed cure amount with respect thereto) or rejected, or any
other Plan Document, including, without limitation, the Cure Notice, are hereby
approved in all respects.

       

      6.           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary on Exhibit D to the Disclosure Statement, the cure
amount for all of the Debtors’ contracts with Samson Resources and Samson 2003,
LLC (collectively “Samson”) shall be $40,488.53 through August 31,
2009.   On that basis, Samson has withdrawn its Cure Objection,
conditioned upon entry of an Order approving the Agreed Motion for Relief from
Automatic Stay to Allow Offset and Recoupment and Notice of Intent to Assume
Joint Operating Agreement, which addresses resolution of cure amounts between
the parties after August 31, 2009, among other things.

       

      7.           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary on Exhibit D to the Disclosure Statement, the cure
amount for all of the Debtors’ contracts being assumed with Presidium MidWest
LLC shall be $31,977.45, which cure amount shall be paid pursuant to the
terms of the Disclosure Statement and Plan.  For the sake of clarity,
the sole agreements by and between Presidium MidWest LLC and either of the
Debtors that will be rejected pursuant to Article VII of the Plan and this Order
are (1) that certain Fritz 1-30 Development Agreement, dated August 23, 2006,
and (2) that certain Development Agreement (Green, Clay & Owen
Counties, IN), dated August 10, 2006.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -15-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      8.           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary on Exhibit D to the Disclosure Statement, the cure
amount for the Debtors' contracts with Atlas Oil and Gas Corporation ("Atlas")
being assumed pursuant to the Plan shall be $30,325.38, subject to Aurora's
hereby agreeing to waive any retroactive SWD charges for the audit period up to
and including 2009 that may be due from Atlas to Aurora under the terms of the
Shared SWD Use Agreement, dated September 1, 2005, relating to the Hudson 13
Unit, and Atlas's hereby agreeing to waive its audit rights for the years 2008
and 2009 provided for pursuant to Exhibit "C" of the Model Form Operating
Agreement, dated August 16, 2005, between Aurora and Atlas relating to the
Hudson 13 Unit, as amended by the Amendment to Model Form Operating Agreement
Dated August 16, 2005 between Aurora and Atlas relating to the Hudson 13
Unit.  On that basis, Atlas has agreed to withdraw its Cure
Objection.

       

      9.           The Plan
Documents.  The forms of the Plan Documents are hereby
approved, and the execution and delivery by the Debtors or the Reorganized
Debtors party thereto (as applicable) of all Plan Documents is hereby authorized
without the need for any further corporate action or court order.  All
such Plan Documents shall become effective and binding upon the parties thereto
simultaneously in accordance with their respective terms and conditions as of
the Effective Date.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -16-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      10.           Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 1142,
and without further action by the Bankruptcy Court or by the shareholders or
directors of the Reorganized Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, acting by and
through any one or more of their officers, shall be, and hereby are, authorized
to (i) enter into the Exit Credit Facility and other related loan documents
and instruments, (ii) perform and comply with all of the terms, conditions, and
obligations under the Exit Credit Facility, (iii) execute and deliver all
documents, agreements, and instruments necessary or appropriate as the
applicable lenders may determine to enter into and perform all obligations under
the Exit Credit Facility, and to take all other actions and execute, deliver,
record, and file all other such agreements, documents, instruments, mortgages,
deeds of trust, financing statements, releases, applications, registration
statements, reports and any changes, additions, and modifications thereto in
connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Exit
Credit Facility and the performance thereof, including, without limitation, the
making of such filings or the recording of any security interests, as may be
required by the final terms of the Exit Credit Facility, and (iv) grant to the
applicable lenders, valid, binding, enforceable, and perfected security
interests and Liens upon all of the collateral specified in the final terms of
the Exit Credit Facility.

       

      11.           Corporate
Action.  On, before, or after the Effective Date, the
Reorganized Debtors may retain such management, law firms, accounting firms,
experts, advisors, agents, consultants, investigators, appraisers, auctioneers,
or other professionals as they may deem reasonably necessary or appropriate,
including, without limitation, a transfer or disbursing agent, to aid them in
the performance of their responsibilities pursuant to the terms of the
Plan.  It shall not be a requirement that any such parties retained by
either of the Reorganized Debtors be a “disinterested person” (as such term is
defined in Bankruptcy Code § 101(14)), and such retained parties may
include Professionals or other Persons who had previously been active in these
Cases on behalf of any Debtor, Creditor, Interest Holder, the Creditors
Committee, or other constituency herein.  Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, following the issuance of the New Warrants (if
applicable), the Reorganized Debtors may arrange for a third party to serve as
the New Warrant agent.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -17-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      12.           All
matters provided for in the Plan involving the corporate structure, assets,
and/or operations of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, and any corporate
action required by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors in connection with the
Plan or the Plan Documents shall be deemed to have occurred and shall be in
effect, without any requirement of further action by the respective security
holders, members, officers, or directors of the Debtors or the Reorganized
Debtors.  After the Confirmation Date and on, prior to, or after the
Effective Date, the appropriate members of the Boards of Directors and/or
members or officers of the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors are authorized
and directed to issue, execute, and deliver the agreements, documents,
securities, certificates, and instruments contemplated by the Plan and/or the
Plan Documents in the name of and on behalf of the applicable Debtors or
Reorganized Debtors.

       

      13.           Implementation of the Plan,
the Plan Documents, and the Transactions.  The Debtors, the
Reorganized Debtors, the First Lien Loan Lenders, the Second Lien Loan Lenders,
the DIP Facility Lenders, the Creditors Committee, NW Bank, the Exit Credit
Facility Lenders, and all other parties-in-interest are hereby authorized to
take all steps, and execute all documents, including appropriate releases and
certificates, reasonably necessary or appropriate to effectuate the provisions
contained in the Plan and the Plan Documents.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -18-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      14.           Bankruptcy Code § 1145 and
Other Exemptions.  Pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 1145(a)(1),
the issuance of any securities under the Plan, including, without limitation,
the New Aurora Preferred Stock, the New Aurora Class A Common Stock, and the New
Secured Notes, to the extent any of the foregoing constitute “securities” under
applicable law, shall be exempt from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act and any state or local laws requiring registration for the offer
or sale of securities.  All such securities, when issued or sold,
shall be freely transferable by the recipients thereof, subject
to:  (i) the provisions of Bankruptcy Code § 1145(b) relating to
“underwriters,” as defined therein; (ii) any restrictions contained in the terms
of the securities themselves; or (iii) any restrictions on the securities that
have been agreed to by the Holder of the securities with respect
thereto.  Any securities to be issued under the Plan shall be issued
without further act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or
rule.  To the maximum extent permitted by law, pursuant to Section
4(2) of the Securities Act, Regulation D of the Securities Act, Rule 701
promulgated under the Securities Act, or otherwise, the issuance of any shares
of the New Aurora Common Stock or other equity securities of Reorganized Aurora
in connection with the exercise of the New Warrants (if any) or pursuant to the
Management and Director Equity Plan shall be exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, and any state or local laws requiring
registration for the sale of securities.

       

      15.           Bankruptcy Code § 1146(a)
Exemption. Pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 1146(a), the issuance,
transfer, or exchange of any security under the Plan; the making or delivery of
any instrument of transfer pursuant to, in implementation of, or as contemplated
by the Plan; and the revesting, transfer, assignment, or sale of any real or
personal property of either of the Debtors pursuant to, in implementation of, or
as contemplated by the Plan shall not be taxed under any state or local law
imposing a stamp tax, transfer tax, or any similar tax or fee.

      Executory Contracts and
Leases

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -19-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      16.           Assumption or Rejection of
Executory Contracts.  As of the Confirmation Date, but subject
to the occurrence of the Effective Date, all Executory Contracts (including,
without limitation, those Executory Contracts identified as “to be assumed” on
the list attached as Exhibit D to the Disclosure Statement, as such list may be
revised) are hereby deemed assumed by the applicable Debtor and retained by the
applicable Reorganized Debtor in accordance with the provisions and requirements
of Bankruptcy Code §§ 365 and 1123, except those Executory Contracts that (i)
have previously been rejected by an order of this Court, (ii) are the subject of
a motion to reject pending on the Confirmation Date, (iii) are identified as “to
be rejected” on the list attached as Exhibit E to the Disclosure Statement (as
such list may have been revised and included in the Plan Supplement or
otherwise), or (iv) are otherwise rejected pursuant to the terms of the Plan.
Rejection of the Executory Contracts at issue in clauses (iii) and (iv) of the
preceding sentence shall be effective as of the Confirmation Date, subject to
the occurrence of the Effective Date.  Entry of this Order shall
constitute approval of such assumptions and rejections (as applicable) pursuant
to Bankruptcy Code §§ 365(a) and 1123, subject to the occurrence of the
Effective Date.  Each Executory Contract assumed pursuant to Article
VII of the Plan and hereunder shall revest in and be fully enforceable by the
respective Reorganized Debtor in accordance with its terms, except as may be
modified by (i) the provisions of the Plan, (ii) any order of this Court
approving and authorizing its assumption, or (iii) applicable federal
law.  The Debtors shall retain the right at all times prior to the
Effective Date to (a) assume any additional or other Executory Contract(s) not
specifically identified on the list thereof attached as Exhibit D to the
Disclosure Statement (or as such list may have been revised and included in the
Plan Supplement or otherwise) as “to be assumed” (including, without limitation,
any Executory Contrary identified on Exhibit E to the Disclosure Statement as
“to be rejected”), or (b) reject any additional or other Executory Contract(s)
not specifically identified on the list thereof attached as Exhibit E to the
Disclosure Statement as “to be rejected” (including, without limitation, any
Executory Contrary identified on Exhibit D to the Disclosure Statement as “to be
assumed”), in each case upon providing notice to the non-Debtor party
thereto.

      


      17.           Rejection Damage
Claims.  Each Person who is a party to an Executory Contract
rejected under and pursuant to Article VII of the Plan and hereunder shall be
entitled to file, not later than 30 days after the entry of this Order (the
“Plan Rejection Bar Date”), a Proof of Claim against the applicable Debtor for
alleged Rejection Claims, or with respect to any Executory Contract (if any)
that is specifically rejected upon a separate motion or other pleading by the
Debtors following the date of this Order but prior to the Effective Date, not
later than 30 days after the entry of the order approving such
rejection.  If no such Proof of Claim for a Rejection Claim is timely
filed against the applicable Debtor, any such Claim shall be forever barred and
shall not be enforceable against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, or their
respective Estates or Assets.  Objections to any such Proof of Claim
shall be filed not later than 90 days after such Proof of Claim is filed
(subject to any potential further extensions of such date as so ordered and
approved by this Court), and this Court shall decide any such
objections.  Distributions (if any) in respect of such Claims (consistent with the
distributions to be received by Holders of other Claims in the Class into which
such Claims fall, as determined by Plan Section 7.5) shall be made
not earlier than the later of (a) 30 days after the expiration of the 90-day
period (as such period may be extended by order of this Court) for filing an
objection in respect of any Proof of Claim filed pursuant to Plan Section 7.4 and (b) 30
days after the Claim has been Allowed by a Final Order of this Court, provided
that no such distribution shall be made before the Effective Date.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -20-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      18.           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in the Plan, the Plan Rejection Bar Date
shall apply only to Rejection Claims with respect to those Executory Contracts
that are rejected under and pursuant to the Plan.  Any Holder of a
Rejection Claim for an Executory Contract that is not rejected pursuant to the
Plan, but whose Rejection Claim instead arises under an Executory Contract that
either has already been rejected by an order of this Court or is the subject of
a separate motion to reject pending on the Confirmation Date, must file a Proof
of Claim for such Rejection Claim by the date provided in any order relating to
such Rejection Claim.

       

      19.           Insurance
Policies.  All insurance policies of the Debtors (including,
without limitation, the Directors & Officers Liability Insurance Policies)
providing coverage to the Debtors and/or the Debtors’ current or former
directors, officers, stockholders, agents, employees, representatives,
predecessors, and others for conduct in connection in any way with the Debtors,
their assets, liabilities, and/or operations, to the extent such policies are
Executory Contracts, are hereby deemed assumed by and for the benefit of the
applicable Debtors and as of the Confirmation Date.  Entry of this
Order constitutes approval of such assumptions pursuant to Bankruptcy Code §§
365 and 1123 or otherwise.

       

      20.           Notwithstanding
anything provided herein or in the Plan to the contrary, the Plan shall not be
deemed in any way to diminish or impair the enforceability of any insurance
policies that may cover claims against either of the Debtors and/or the Debtors’
current or former directors, officers, stockholders, agents, employees,
representatives, predecessors or any other Person (including, without
limitation, the Directors & Officers Liability Insurance
Policies).  Any failure by the Debtors to list any particular
insurance policy on any schedule of Executory Contracts to be assumed under the
Plan the Debtors file in these Cases (either contained in the Disclosure
Statement, including, without limitation, Exhibit D thereto, the Plan
Supplement, or otherwise) shall not in any way impair the Debtors’ ability to
assume such policy, and instead, any and all such policies shall still be
assumed in accordance with Plan Section 7.7 and this Order.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -21-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      21.           The
Debtors’ “oil and gas leases” (that is, below surface mineral estates, none of
which are set forth on Exhibits D or E to the Disclosure Statement) shall not
constitute nor be considered executory contracts or unexpired leases under
Bankruptcy Code §§ 365 or 1123 for any purpose under the Plan or otherwise in
connection with these Cases.  Any Claims asserted under such oil and
gas leases that arose as of the Petition Date shall constitute Class 3A Claims,
and any such Claims that arose after the Petition Date shall constitute
Administrative Claims, and in each instance shall be subject to all rights,
defenses, and potential disputes and objections of the Debtors or the
Reorganized Debtors with respect thereto.

       

      22.           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, the provisions of Plan Section 7.9 shall not be
deemed to apply to the Debtors’ oil and gas leases with the Michigan Department
of Natural Resources unless and until the issue of whether Bankruptcy Code § 365
applies to such leases is resolved by such parties or pursuant to an Order of
this Court in favor of the Debtors.  In addition, the application of
Plan Section 7.9 to the Frontier Leases shall be determined in the manner
provided for herein in Paragraphs 23-25.

       

      23.           The
Frontier Motion, the Estimation Motion, and the Frontier Omnibus Objection shall
proceed on an expedited schedule and procedure to be agreed upon by Aurora and
Frontier or, in the event such parties are unable to agree, in accordance
with  a schedule and procedures established by the
Court.  All issues, claims, and defenses asserted by Frontier and the
Debtors in the Frontier Motion, the Estimation Motion and the Frontier Omnibus
Objection, and in any responses thereto, are preserved and are not affected in
any way by the provisions of the Plan or this Order.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -22-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      24.           In
the event that the Court determines that (i) the Frontier Leases are unexpired
leases of non-residential real property or executory contracts subject to the
cure provisions of Bankruptcy Code § 365(b)(1)(A), and (ii) any portion of the
Frontier Lease Indebtedness constitutes a cure amount under Bankruptcy Code §
365, then such cure amount shall be paid by Aurora or Reorganized Aurora (as
applicable) within ten (10) business days of the entry of the applicable Final
Order by the Court as a condition to the assumption of the Frontier Leases by
Aurora or Reorganized Aurora (as applicable) under Bankruptcy Code §
365.  In the event Aurora or Reorganized Aurora (as applicable) fails
to pay the Court-determined cure claim to Frontier within such ten (10) business
day period, the Frontier Leases shall be deemed to be rejected.  Upon
any such rejection, Frontier shall have (i) an Allowed General Unsecured Claim
against Aurora in the amount of the Frontier Lease Indebtedness that is
determined by the Court to have accrued prior to the Petition Date, and such
amount shall be treated as an Allowed Class 3A Claim and be satisfied in
accordance with Section 5.4 of the Plan; and (ii) an Allowed Administrative
Claim for the portion of the Frontier Lease Indebtedness that is determined by
the Court to have accrued subsequent to the Petition Date, which shall be
satisfied in accordance with Section 3.1 of the Plan.

      


      25.           If
the Court determines that the Frontier Leases are not subject to Bankruptcy Code
§ 365, Frontier and Aurora shall endeavor to resolve the Allowed amount,
validity, and/or secured status of Claim No. 436 or any administrative claim
that Frontier may file in the future.  In the event Frontier and
Aurora are unable to do so consensually, the Court will determine the Allowed
amount, status, and validity of Claim No. 436 and/or any such administrative
claim.  Any such amount determined by the Court to be due to Frontier
as an Allowed Secured Claim with respect to Claim No. 436, which may be up but
not to exceed Frontier’s interest, if any, in the value of the property that
Frontier asserts secures such claim, shall be paid by Aurora or Reorganized
Aurora (as applicable) within ten (10) business days of the entry of a Final
Order by the Court with respect thereto.  Any such amount determined
by the Court to be due to Frontier as an Allowed General Unsecured Claim shall
be treated as an Allowed Class 3A Claim and shall be satisfied in accordance
with Section 5.4 of the Plan.  Any such amount determined by the Court
to be due to Frontier as an Allowed Administrative Claim shall be treated and
satisfied in accordance with Section 3.1 of the Plan.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -23-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      
         

        26.           Executory
Contracts entered into after the Petition Date by either Debtor (including the
Management Transition Services Agreements) may be performed by the Debtor or the
Reorganized Debtor liable thereunder in accordance with the terms and subject to
the conditions of such Executory Contract(s) in the ordinary course of
business.  Accordingly, such Executory Contracts shall survive and
remain unaffected by entry of this Order.

        Discharge, Release,
Injunction, and Exculpation Provisions

      

      


      27.           Property Retained Free and
Clear of Liens Except as Contemplated by the Plan or this
Order.  Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or this Order,
upon the Effective Date, but retroactive to the Confirmation Date, (a) the
Reorganized Debtors shall continue to exist as separate legal entities with all
the powers of corporations and/or limited liability companies (as applicable)
under applicable law and without prejudice to any right to alter or terminate
such existence (whether by merger or otherwise) under applicable state law, and
(b) all Assets of the respective Debtors (including, but not limited to,
Aurora’s equity interests in HPPC and the Debtors’ respective interests in any
non-Debtor subsidiary or Affiliate (to the extent that any such non-Debtor
subsidiary or Affiliate has not been dissolved, sold, or otherwise transferred
under applicable law prior to the Effective Date), but not including the NW Bank
Note Collateral or the NW Bank Deposit Account Advance Collateral, both of which
shall be transferred to the Holder of the Allowed Class 2D Claim, subject to the
terms and conditions of the Plan, including Plan Section 4.4(b)), wherever
situated, shall vest in the applicable Reorganized Debtor, subject to the
provisions of the Plan and this Order.  Thereafter, each Reorganized
Debtor may operate its business, incur debt and other obligations in the
ordinary course of its business, and otherwise use, acquire, and dispose of
property free of any restrictions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules,
the Local Bankruptcy Rules, and this Court.  After the Effective Date,
but retroactive to the Confirmation Date, all property retained by the
Reorganized Debtors pursuant to the Plan shall vest in the applicable
Reorganized Debtors free and clear of all Claims, debts, Liens, security
interests, obligations, encumbrances, and interests of Creditors and Interest
Holders of the Debtors and all other Persons, except for (i) as is contemplated
by or provided in the Plan or this Order; (ii) the obligation to perform
according to the Plan and this Order; and (iii) the respective Claims, debts,
Liens, security interests, encumbrances, and interests (a) arising in connection
with the Exit Credit Facility (including, without limitation, the New Secured
Notes and the Working Capital Loans Notes) and the Exit Credit Facility
Guarantee, or (b) of those Holders of (1) Allowed Class 2C Claims whose Secured
Claims the applicable Debtor elects to Reinstate pursuant to Plan Section 4.3
(as opposed to the applicable Debtor’s electing to (A) pay the amount of such
Allowed Class 2C Claim in full, (B) return the underlying collateral to such
Class 2C Creditor, or (C) otherwise satisfy such Allowed Claim in a manner
provided for under Section 4.3 of the Plan), or (2) the NW Bank LCs Collateral
(subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4.4(c) of the
Plan).

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -24-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      28.           Discharge and
Injunction.  Pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 1141 or otherwise,
except as may otherwise be provided for in the Plan or in this Order, upon the
occurrence of the Effective Date, the rights afforded and the payments and
distributions to be made under the Plan shall be in complete exchange for, and
in full and unconditional settlement, satisfaction, discharge, and release of,
any and all existing debts, Claims, and Interests of any kind, nature, or
description whatsoever against the Debtors or any of the Debtors’ Assets or
other property, and shall effect a full and complete release, discharge, and
termination of all Liens, security interests, or other Claims, interests, or
encumbrances upon all of the Debtors’ Assets and property.  For purposes of clarification, except as otherwise
provided in the Plan or in this Order, the Debtors shall be discharged from all
Claims and Causes of Action to the fullest extent permitted by Bankruptcy Code §
1141, and all holders of Claims or Interests shall be precluded from asserting
against the Debtors, the Estates, the Reorganized Debtors, the Assets, or any
property dealt with under the Plan, any further or other Cause of Action based
upon any act, omission, transaction, event, thing, or other activity of any kind
or nature that occurred or came into existence prior to the Effective
Date.  No Creditor or Interest Holder of the Debtors nor any
other Person may receive any distribution from the Debtors, the Estates, the
Reorganized Debtors, or the Assets, or seek recourse against, the Debtors, the
Estates, the Reorganized Debtors, or any of the Assets that are to be
distributed under the terms of the Plan, except for those distributions
expressly provided for under the Plan.  All Persons are precluded from
asserting, against any property that is to be distributed under the terms of the
Plan, any Claims, Interests, obligations, rights, Causes of Action, liabilities,
or equity interests based upon any act, omission, transaction, or other activity
of any kind or nature that occurred prior to the Confirmation Date, other than
as expressly provided for in the Plan or this Order, whether or not (a) a Proof
of Claim or Proof of Interest based upon such debt or Interest (as applicable)
is filed or deemed filed under Bankruptcy Code § 501; (b) a Claim or Interest
based upon such debt or Interest (as applicable) is allowed under Bankruptcy
Code § 502; or (c) the Holder of a Claim or Interest based upon such debt or
Interest (as applicable) has accepted the Plan, is
deemed to have accepted the Plan under Bankruptcy Code § 1126(f), or is deemed
to have rejected the Plan under Bankruptcy Code § 1126(g).  Except as
otherwise provided in the Plan or this Order with respect to a Claim that is
expressly Reinstated under the terms and conditions of the Plan, all Holders of
Claims and Interests arising prior to the Effective Date shall be permanently
barred and enjoined from asserting against the Debtors, the Estates, the
Reorganized Debtors, their successors, or the Assets, any of the following
actions on account of such Claim or Interest: (a) commencing or continuing in
any manner any action or other proceeding on account of such Claim or Interest
against property to be distributed under the terms of the Plan, other than to
enforce any right to distribution with respect to such property under the Plan;
(b) enforcing, attaching, collecting, or recovering in any manner any judgment,
award, decree, or order against any of the property to be distributed under the
terms of the Plan, other than as permitted under subclause (a) above; (c)
creating, perfecting, or enforcing any Lien or encumbrance against any property
to be distributed under the terms of the Plan; (d) asserting any right of
setoff, subrogation, or recoupment of any kind, directly or indirectly, against
any obligation due the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, the Assets or any
other property of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, or any direct or
indirect transferee of any property of, or successor in interest to, any of the
foregoing Persons; and (e) acting or proceeding in any manner, in any place
whatsoever, that does not conform to, or comply with, the provisions of the
Plan.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -25-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      29.           No Waiver of
Discharge.  Except as otherwise specifically provided in the
Plan, nothing in the Plan shall be deemed to waive, limit, or restrict in any
way the discharge granted to the Debtors upon Confirmation of the Plan by
Bankruptcy Code § 1141.

       

      30.           Post-Consummation Effect of
Evidences of Claims or Interests.  Except as otherwise
expressly set forth in
the Plan (including, without
limitation, Plan Sections 4.5, 5.2, and 6.2), any and all notes,
stock certificates, and/or other evidences of Claims against, or Interests in,
either of the Debtors shall, effective upon the Effective Date, represent
only the right to participate in the distributions contemplated by the Plan, if
any, and shall otherwise be cancelled and of no force and effect as of the

Preferred Stock, the Exit Credit Facility (including the New Secured Notes and
the Working Capital Loans Notes), the New Warrants (if any), and other

(ii) certain of the Released Parties’ agreeing to have their claims under their
change-of-control agreements treated in the manner set forth in the Management
Transition Services Agreements and/or making the Lawson & Kidd Payment (as
applicable), conclusively, absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably, and forever
releases and discharges the Released Parties from any and all claims,

other duty; any alleged violation of any federal or state securities law or any
other law relating to creditors’ rights generally; any of the Released Parties’
or the Non-Debtor Releasing Parties’ ownership of any securities of either of
the Debtors; or any derivative claims asserted on behalf of a Debtor), whether
liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or contingent, matured or unmatured, known or
unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing or subsequently arising, in law,
equity, or otherwise, that such Non-Debtor Releasing Party ever had, now has, or
may have that are based in whole or in part on any act, omission, transaction,
or occurrence from the beginning of time through and including the Effective
Date in any way relating to the Debtors, these Cases and the commencement
thereof, or the Plan; the Disclosure Statement; the Plan Documents; the

Releasing Party, any security previously issued by either of the Debtors, and
any and all claims based upon or arising out of such actions or omissions are
hereby forever and completely waived and released by the Non-Debtor Releasing
Parties; provided, however, Section
9.6(a) of the Plan shall not release, and the Non-Debtor Releasing Parties do
not waive the right to enforce, the Debtors’ or the Reorganized Debtors’ duties,
obligations, covenants, and agreements under (a) the Plan, (b) any settlement
agreement approved by this Court in these Cases, (c) the Assumed Contracts, or

of Claims and termination of Interests provided in the Plan and under the
Bankruptcy Code; and provided further, however, that nothing
in Section 9.6(a) of the Plan shall be deemed to assert or imply any admission
of liability on the part of any of the Released Parties.  Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lawson & Kidd Payment is
deemed made in full settlement of any and all claims or causes of action that
the Debtors, the Estates, or any Non-Debtor Releasing Parties may have against
Lawson & Kidd, LLP or its principals or any other related Person, such that
the releases provided for in Article IX of the Plan shall  apply to
Lawson & Kidd, LLP, and  its principals and any related
Person.

      32.           All
Non-Debtor Releasing Parties shall be forever precluded from asserting any of
the claims released pursuant to Plan Sections 9.6 and 9.9 against any of the
Released Parties or any of the Released Parties’ respective assets; and to the
extent that any Non-Debtor Releasing Party receives monetary damages from any
Released Party on account of any claim released pursuant to Section 9.6 of the
Plan, such Non-Debtor Releasing Party as a result of the Plan shall assign all
of its right, title, and interest in and to such recovery to the Released
Parties against whom such money is recovered.

       

      33.           Notwithstanding
any provision of the Plan or this Order to the contrary, the releases contained
in Plan Section 9.6 and herein shall not be construed as, or operate as a
release of, or limitation on (i) any claims by the Non-Debtor Releasing Parties
against the Released Parties that do not relate to or involve the Debtors or
these Cases, (ii) any claims, obligations, rights, causes of action, or
liabilities by the Non-Debtor Releasing Parties against the Released Parties
arising out of any action or omission to the extent that such action or omission
is determined in a Final Order by a court of competent jurisdiction to have
constituted willful misconduct or fraud, or (iii) objections to
Claims.

Releasing Parties.  On the Effective Date, pursuant to
Bankruptcy Code § 1123(b), Bankruptcy Rule 9019, or otherwise, and except as
otherwise specifically provided in the Plan or in the Plan Documents, the Debtor
Releasing Parties, in consideration of the obligations of the Debtors and the
Reorganized Debtors under the Plan and the Cash, the New Aurora Preferred Stock,
the New Aurora Class A Common Stock, the Exit Credit Facility (including the New
Secured Notes and the Working Capital Loans Notes), the New Warrants (if any),
and other contracts, instruments, releases, agreements, and documents to be
executed and delivered in connection with the Plan, and in consideration of (i)
the efforts of the Released Parties to facilitate the expeditious reorganization
of the Debtors and the implementation of the restructuring contemplated by the
Plan and (ii) certain of the Released Parties’ agreeing to have their claims
under their change-of-control agreements treated in the manner set forth in the
Management Transition Services Agreements and/or making the Lawson & Kidd
Payment (as applicable), shall be deemed to have conclusively, absolutely,
unconditionally, irrevocably, and forever released and discharged the Released
Parties from any and all claims, obligations, suits, judgments, damages,
demands, debts, rights, Causes of Action, and liabilities, whether liquidated or
unliquidated, fixed or contingent, matured or unmatured, known or unknown,
foreseen or unforeseen, then existing or hereafter arising, in law, equity, or
otherwise, that such Debtor Releasing Party ever had, now has, or may have that
are based in whole or in part on any act, omission, transaction, or occurrence
taking place on or prior to the Effective Date in any way relating to the
Debtors, these Cases and the Commencement thereof, or the Plan; the Disclosure
Statement; the Plan Documents; the formulation, negotiation, preparation,
dissemination, implementation, and/or administration of the Plan, the Disclosure
Statement, and the Plan Documents; the confirmation and consummation of the
Plan; the subject matter of, or the transactions or events giving rise to, any
Claim or Interest of such Debtor Releasing Party, or any security previously
issued by either of the Debtors.  The immediately preceding sentence
shall not, however, apply to (i) any indebtedness of any Person to either of the
Debtors for money borrowed by such Person or any other contractual obligation of
any Person to either of the Debtors, or (ii) any setoff or counterclaim that the
Debtors may have or assert against any Person, provided that the aggregate
amount thereof shall not exceed the aggregate amount of any Claims held or
asserted by such Person against the Debtors.  Holders of Claims and
Interests against either of the Debtors shall be enjoined from commencing or
continuing any action, employment of process, or act to collect, offset, or
recover any such claim that could be brought on behalf of or in the name of the
Debtors.

      35.           Injunction Related to
Releases.  This Order shall
be deemed to permanently enjoin the commencement or prosecution by any Person,
whether directly, derivatively, or otherwise, of any claims, obligations, suits,
judgments, damages, demands, debts, rights, Causes of Action, or liabilities
released pursuant to the Plan (including the releases set forth in Plan Article
IX) and this Order.

       

      36.           Exculpation.  No
Released Party shall have or incur, and each Released Party hereby is exculpated
from, any liability to any Person for any act taken or not taken or any omission
in connection with, arising from or relating to these Cases (and the
commencement or administration thereof); the Disclosure Statement, the Plan, or
the formulation, negotiation, preparation, dissemination, implementation, or
administration of any of the foregoing documents; the solicitation of votes in
connection with Confirmation of the Plan; the Exit Credit Facility; the Plan
Documents; the Confirmation and/or consummation of the Plan; any contract,
instrument, release, or other agreement or document created or entered into in
connection with the Plan; any other act taken or omitted to be taken in
connection with, or in contemplation of, any of the restructuring or other
transactions contemplated by the Plan; and the property to be distributed or
otherwise transferred under the Plan; provided, however, that nothing
in Plan Section 9.9 shall release any entity from any claims, obligations,
rights, causes of action, or liabilities arising out of such entity’s fraud or
willful misconduct.  Each Released Party shall be entitled reasonably
to rely upon the advice of counsel with respect to its duties and
responsibilities under the Plan, and shall be fully protected in acting or
refraining from acting in accordance with such advice.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -29-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      37.           Upon
the Effective Date, the Old Aurora Common Stock shall be cancelled and deemed
terminated.

Court shall further retain jurisdiction for the additional purposes as set forth
in Plan Section 12.2.

Exercise Jurisdiction.  If this Court abstains from exercising
or declines to exercise jurisdiction, or is otherwise without jurisdiction over
any matter arising out of these Cases, including the matters set forth in
Article XII of the Plan, such Article XII shall not prohibit or limit the
exercise of jurisdiction by any other court having competent jurisdiction with
respect to such matter.

       

      41.           Successors and
Assigns.  The rights, benefits, and obligations of any Person
named or referred to in the Plan shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the
benefit of, the heirs, executors, administrators, successors, or assigns of such
Person.

       

      42.           Professional

            -31-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      43.           Administrative Claims Bar
Date.  Each Holder of an Administrative Claim (except for an
Administrative Claim based upon Professional Fees, the allowance and timing for
filing of applications for Professional Fees being governed by Plan Section 13.7
and this Order, and any fees or charges due by the respective estates pursuant
to U.S.C. § 1930) arising prior to the Effective Date (other than for goods or
non-professional services provided to the Debtors during these Cases in the
ordinary course of the Debtors’ business) must file a request for payment on or

not be entitled to compensation or reimbursement of Professional Fees rendered
after the Effective Date, except for Professional Fees incurred in connection
with any applications for allowance of Professional Fees incurred as of the
Effective Date and approved by this Court.

       

      Miscellaneous

       

      46.           Applicability of Bankruptcy
Code § 1125.  The protection afforded by Bankruptcy Code §
1125(e) with regard to the solicitation of acceptances or rejections of the Plan

Preferred Stock, the New Aurora Class A Common Stock (including any and all
shares of common equity of Reorganized Aurora issued to the extent that New
Warrants are exercised), the New Aurora Class B Common Stock, the New Warrants
(if any), the New Secured Notes, the Working Capital Loans Notes, and/or any
other securities or notes issued in connection with the Plan, this Order, or a
Plan Document, shall apply to the fullest extent provided by law, and the entry
of this Order shall constitute the determination by this Court that the Debtors,
the DIP Facility Lenders, the Creditors Committee, the First Lien Loan Lenders,
the Second Lien Loan Lenders, the Administrative Agents, and each of their
respective officers, directors, partners, employees, members, agents, attorneys,
accountants, financial advisors, investment bankers, dealer-managers, placement
agents, and other professionals, shall have acted in good faith and in
compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code pursuant to
Bankruptcy Code § 1125(e) and, therefore, are not liable on account of such
solicitation or participation, for violation of any applicable law, rule, or
regulation governing solicitation of acceptance or rejection of a plan or the
offer, issuance, sale, or purchase of securities.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -32-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      47.           Further
Actions.  The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors shall be
authorized to execute, deliver, file, or record such documents, contracts,
instruments, certificates, releases, and other agreements and to take such other
action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to effectuate and further
evidence the terms and conditions of the Plan, any Plan Document, the
transactions contemplated herein and therein, the Management and Director Equity
Plan, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Exit Credit Facility, the Exit
Credit Facility Guarantee, or any notes, guarantee, or other documents or
agreements issued in connection herewith or therewith.

       

      48.           On
or before the Effective Date, the Debtors may file with this Court such
agreements and other documents as may be necessary and appropriate to effectuate
and further evidence the terms and conditions of the Plan.

       

      49.           Except
as to terms which, if unenforceable, would frustrate the overall purposes of the
Plan, should any provision in the Plan be determined to be unenforceable, such
determination shall in no way limit or affect the enforceability and operative
effect of any or all other provisions of the Plan.

       

      50.           The
Debtors are hereby authorized to mail to all parties-in-interest in these Cases
and/or, at their discretion, publish notice of the entry of this Order and/or of
the Effective Date, together with notice of the last day for filing
Administrative Claims and Rejection Claims, all as contained and provided for
herein.

       

      51.           This
Order shall constitute all approvals and consents required, if any, by the laws,
rules or regulations of any state or any other governmental authority with
respect to the implementation or consummation of the Plan, the Plan Documents,
and any other documents, instruments or agreements thereto, and any other acts
referred to in or contemplated by the Plan, the Plan Documents, and any other
documents, instruments, or agreements thereto.

       

      52.           The
provisions of the Plan and this Order, including the findings of fact and
conclusions of law set forth above, are non-severable and mutually dependent.
The classification of Claims and Interests for purposes of the distributions to
be made under the Plan shall be governed solely by the terms of the
Plan.  Under Bankruptcy Code §§ 1123(a) and 1142(a) and the provisions
of this Order, the Plan and all Plan Documents shall apply in accordance with
the terms thereof and be enforceable notwithstanding any otherwise applicable
nonbankruptcy law.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -33-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      53.           The
failure to specifically include or reference any particular provision of the
Plan in this Order does not in any way diminish or impair the efficacy of such
provision, it being understood that the intent of this Order and this Court is
that the Plan be confirmed and approved in its entirety.

       

      54.           The
provision in Bankruptcy Rule 6004(h) staying an order authorizing the use, sale,
or lease of property until the expiration of 14 days after entry of the order is
hereby waived, such that the provisions of this Order are effective
immediately.  This Order is a final order, and the period in which an
appeal may be timely filed shall commence upon the entry hereof.

       

      55.           The
Debtors may, prior to the Effective Date, make appropriate technical adjustments
and modifications to the Plan without further order or approval of the Court,
provided that such technical adjustments and modifications do not adversely
affect in a material way the treatment of holders of Claims and Interests and
are filed on the Court’s docket.

       

      56.           This
Order shall be binding upon and govern the acts of all persons and entities,
including, without limitation, all filing agents, filing officers, title agents,
title companies, recorders of mortgages, recorders of deeds, registrars of
deeds, administrative agencies, governmental departments, secretaries of state,
state and local officials, and all other persons and entities who may be
required by operation of law, the duties of their office, or contract, to
accept, file, register, or otherwise record or release any documents or
instruments.  Each and every federal, state, and local government
agency is hereby directed to accept any and all documents and instruments
necessary, useful, or appropriate (including Uniform Commercial Code financing
statements) to effectuate, implement, and consummate the transactions
contemplated by the Plan and this Order without payment of any recording tax,
stamp tax, transfer tax, or similar tax imposed by state or local
law.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -34-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      57.           Notwithstanding
the stay contemplated by Bankruptcy Rule 3020(e) and except as otherwise
provided in any other or prior order of this Court, immediately after entry of
this Order, the provisions of the Plan and this Order shall be deemed binding
against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, any and all Holders of Claims
against, or Interests in, the Debtors (irrespective of whether such Claims or
Interests accepted, rejected, or are deemed to have accepted or rejected, the
Plan), any and all non-Debtor parties to Executory Contracts with the Debtors,
and any and all Persons that are parties to, or are subject to, the releases,
discharges, and injunctions described in the Plan.  Accordingly,
pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3020(e), the fourteen-day period provided by such
rule is hereby waived in its entirety.

       

      58.           Captions
and headings herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not
intended to be a part of, or to affect the interpretation of, this
Order.

       

      59.           Notwithstanding
anything that may be to the contrary in this Order or in the Plan, nothing
herein or in the Plan shall be deemed to affect or impair the respective rights
of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, Aurora Operating, LLC (“Aurora
Operating”), Deka, Inc., the First Lien Loan Lenders, the Second Lien Loan
Lenders, the DIP Facility Lenders, or the Exit Credit Facility Lenders with
respect to the issue of whether or not any leases currently held by, and in the
name of, Aurora are required to be transferred or assigned to Aurora Operating,
subject to any and all liens such lenders may have upon such
leases.  Instead, all such parties shall be deemed to have reserved
any and all of their respective rights with respect to such issues following the
Confirmation Date.

      


      
        
          
             


          

          
            -35-

            
              

            

          

          
             


          

        

      

      


      60.           For purposes of clarification, and notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, immediately prior to the
Effective Date, each of the First Lien Loan Lenders shall assign to Aurora its
pro rata share of the Class 2A Claims that remain after
deducting the portion of such First Lien Lender's Allowed 2A Claims that are to be
Reinstated and modified as its New Secured
Notes.  On the Effective Date, such portion of the Class 2A Claims
assigned by each of the First Lien Loan Lenders to Aurora shall be exchanged for
the issuance by Reorganized Aurora of such First Lien Loan Lender’s pro rata portion
of 32 million shares of New Aurora Preferred Stock.  Such New Aurora
