VANCOUVER, June 27, 2012 /CNW/ - OSI Geospatial Inc. (TSXV: OSI) ("OSI" or the "Company") announced today that the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") granted its final approval with respect to the Company's previously announced delisting from the TSXV and going private transaction to be completed by way of a court approved plan of arrangement (the "Transaction").  Pursuant to the TSXV's formal bulletin (the "Bulletin") issued today, the Company's common shares will be delisted from the TSXV effective at the close of business on July 12, 2012, ten business days after issuance of the Bulletin (the "Delisting").

The Transaction is expected to become effective on July 13, 2012, the day after the Delisting (the "Effective Date"). The Transaction provides, among other things, that (i) each Class "B" Series 2 Preference Share (a "Preferred Share") held by a Preferred Shareholder be converted into common shares of the Company (the "Common Shares") at a conversion rate of 156.667 Common Shares per Preferred Share, which is equivalent to a value of $9.40 per Preferred Share, and (ii), all of the issued and outstanding Common Shares be consolidated on a 250,000 to 1 basis and Common Shareholders holding less than one post-consolidation Common Share be paid $0.060 in cash, representing a 33% premium to the pre-consolidation market price for the Common Shares, per pre-consolidation Common Share held by them.

Following the Delisting and Effective Date, the Company will apply to the relevant securities commissions to cease to a reporting issuer and expects to close the Transaction in late July 2012.

Further details regarding the Transaction are set out in the management information circular dated May 16, 2012, which is available under the Company's profile on SEDAR.
