New York, Sept. 22 - Ausam Energy Corp. said it intends to raise up to US$60 million and at least US$45 million in a private placement as part of its acquisition of SKH Management, LP's leasehold rights to oil and gas properties in Texas. Also, the company has priced a C$1.75 million offering.

The pricing terms of the private placement for up to US$60 million have not been determined.

Under the terms of the acquisition, Ausam will issue 63,417,143 shares with a value of C$0.35 each for up to US$15 million.

In the C$1.75 million placement, the company plans to sell 4,375,000 units at C$0.40 each. The units include one share and one warrant. If the acquisition transaction fails, the warrants are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis for common shares of Noram Resources, Inc.
