VENTURE:QTA)(OTCQX:QTRRF) today announced that it has closed the previously

"Units"), each Unit priced at US$1,000 and comprised of one Non-Transferable
Convertible Redeemable US$1,000 Principal Amount Promissory Note (the "Notes")
and 11,442 Non-Transferable Common Share Purchase Warrants (the "Warrants").

added to the Company's working capital, and, accordingly, has issued Notes
aggregating US$500,000 principal amount and 5,721,000 Warrants entitling the

Description of Securities

Notes: Each Note is non-transferable and convertible into common shares of
Quaterra ("Shares"). The principal and interest of each Note will become due and
payable (the "Due Date") on January 2, 2016 (the "Term"), unless the Note is
earlier converted or redeemed. Each Note bears simple interest at a rate of 10%
per annum in arrears payable to the extent accrued on the earlier of the Due
Date, conversion or redemption of the Note. Subject to provisions set forth in
each Note, upon conversion or redemption, interest will be paid in the form of
Shares at the Market Price determined in accordance with the policies of the TSX
Venture Exchange (the "TSX-V"). The Company has no present intention of listing
the Notes on any exchange and currently there is no published market for any
Notes of the Company. The issue of the Notes will not restrict or prevent the
Company from obtaining any other financing, or from issuing additional
securities or rights, during the period within which the Notes are outstanding.


At any time after the expiration of (4) four months after July 2, 2014 (the
"Closing Date"), the holder of a Note may convert the principal amount of the
Note outstanding into Shares in the ratio of CDN$0.095 of the principal amount
of the Note converted during the first 12 months of the Term, or CDN$0.10 of the
principal amount of the Note converted during the last 6 months of the Term, to
one Share. Any interest payable will be converted into Shares at the Market
Price determined in accordance with the policies of the TSX-V. However, as to
any Note, the Company reserves the right to pay some or all of the interest in
cash (U.S. funds) if necessary to satisfy any regulatory standard. In the event
that, at any time after the expiration of (4) four months after the Closing
Date, the Company's common shares have achieved or exceeded a closing price of
CDN$0.12 per share for a 10 consecutive trading day period on the TSX-V, the
principal amount of the Notes outstanding will be automatically redeemed and
converted into Shares in the ratio of CDN$0.095 of the principal amount of the
Note redeemed during the first 12 months of the Term, or CDN$0.10 of the
principal amount of the Note redeemed during the last 6 months of the Term, for
one Share. Any interest payable will be converted into Shares at the Market
Price determined in accordance with the policies of the TSX-V. However, as to
any Note, the Company reserves the right to pay some or all of the interest in
cash (U.S. funds) if necessary to satisfy any regulatory standard.


At any time after the expiration of (4) four months after the Closing Date, the
Company may, prior to conversion, on 30 days notice in writing, redeem the
principal amount of the Notes outstanding by paying the holders, in cash, the
principal amount of the Notes outstanding together with interest, in cash or, at
the Company's option, in Shares at the Market Price determined in accordance
with the policies of the TSX-V, at the rate of 15% per annum calculated from the
date of issue of the Notes.


Warrants: Each Warrant is non-transferable and entitles the holder at any time
after the expiration of (4) four months after the Closing Date to purchase
common shares in the capital of the Company as constituted on the Closing Date
(each such common share referred to as a "Warrant Share") at a price of CDN$0.16
per Warrant Share at any time on or before 4:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the
"Expiry Date", being the first business day that is 18 months after the Closing
Date; provided that, in the event that, at any time after (4) four months after
the Closing Date, the Company's common shares have achieved or exceeded a
closing price of CDN$0.20 per share for a 10 consecutive trading day period on
the TSX-V, the Company may accelerate the Warrant expiry date to 30 days after
notice is given. 


The Company has no present intention of listing the Warrants on any exchange and
currently there is no published market for any warrants of the Company. The
issue of the Warrants will not restrict or prevent the Company from obtaining
any other financing, or from issuing additional securities or rights, during the
period within which the Warrants may be exercised.


The Notes and Warrants, and any Shares issued on conversion or redemption of the
Notes, payment of interest or exercise of Warrants, are subject to a hold period
expiring November 3, 2014.
