Quaterra Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: QTA)(NYSE Amex: QMM) (the
"Company") today announced that it proposed to increase its offering
to 6,000,000 Units and further that the News Release disseminated on
October 1, 2009, through inadvertence, contained inaccurate
information. The participation of Insiders in the announced Private
Placement was not by way of debt settlement or in satisfaction of
indebtedness incurred by reason of services rendered to the Company
for which payment had been deferred. Insiders are participating in
the Placement to the extent of 1,019,450 Units but all Insiders are
remitting payment in the same manner as all other subscribers for
Units.
On behalf of the Board of Directors,
Scott B. Hean, Chief Financial Officer, Quaterra Resources Inc.
