New Issue: Ridgeway Petroleum prices $2 million note with warrants

By Sheri Kasprzak

New York, Dec. 29 - Ridgeway Petroleum Corp. said it plans to raise $2 million from a private placement of a senior secured note.

The 1.5% note matures on Dec. 23, 2006.

The investors will receive warrants for 1 million shares, exercisable at C$0.50 each through maturity.

The financing is being conducted so that the company can proceed with its previously announced $20 million private placement of convertible preferred stock, which will be conducted in the first quarter of 2006.

Proceeds will be used for front-end engineering and design studies, repayment of an outstanding loan and lease rental payments on the company's St. Johns Helium/CO2 project in Arizona and New Mexico. The rest will be used for working capital.

Based in Calgary, Alta., Ridgeway is a development-stage oil and natural gas exploration company.
