Reichart, K. Ivarsen, J. Haislip, A. Crain, D. Foster, M. Nysewander, and A. LaCluyze, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, on behalf of the CHASE project (which is part of the Millennium Center for Supernova Science collaboration), report the discovery of an apparent supernova (mag approximately 16.7) on an unfiltered image taken on Jan. 10.16 UT with the 0.41-m 'PROMPT 3' telescope located at Cerro Tololo. The new object is located at R.A. = 5:20:14.94 ± 0".2, Decl. = -25:18:56.4 ± 0".2 (equinox 2000.0), which is about 49".7 west and 31".6 north of the center of the galaxy IC 411. The variable was designated PSN J05201494-2518563 when it was posted at the Central Bureau's TOCP webpage (because Pignata gave a slightly different position when posting there) and is here designated SN 2012H based on the spectroscopic confirmation reported below. Additional CCD magnitudes for 2012H (unfiltered unless noted otherwise): 2011 Jan. 6.12-Oct. 11.30, [19.5 (stacked CHASE images); Nov. 3.13, [18.0 (CHASE); 2012 Jan. 11.08, 16.5 (CHASE); 14.232, 16.7 (Joseph Brimacombe, Cairns, Australia; remotely using a 51-cm RCOS telescope + STL11K camera + luminance filter at the New Mexico Skies Observatory near Mayhill, NM, U.S.A.; position end figures 14s.93, 56".6; image posted at website URL http://www.flickr.com/photos/43846774@N02/6697768647/); 14.264, 17.1 (L. Elenin, Lyubertsy, Russia; three stacked 300-s images remotely taken at the ISON-NM Observatory near Mayhill with a 0.45-m f/2.8 telescope + KAF09000 CCD; limiting mag about 20.1; position end figures 14s.94, 56".1, uncertainty given as ± 0".1; UCAC3 reference stars; image posted at website URL http://spaceobs.org/images/TOCP/PSNJ05201494-2518563-20120114.png).
