Said Quaterra President and CEO Steven Dischler: "We are committed to serving
our U.S. investors by providing them with access to the enhanced U.S.-based
trading platform offered by OTCQX. The OTCQX has earned a reputation for
providing U.S. investors with improved liquidity, transparency, superior
information, and easy access through their U.S. regulated broker-dealers."

of the shares on the TSX Venture Exchange where they will continue to trade.
