Star Navigation Receives Requisition From Shareholders


TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Jan. 24, 2012) - Star Navigation Systems Group Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:SNA) ("Star" or the "Company"), announced today that its board of directors has received a shareholder requisition to call a special meeting of shareholders. The stated purpose of the meeting is to consider, and if thought advisable, the removal of Mr. Dale F. Sparks as a director and officer of the Company. The shareholders making the requisition have proposed that Mr. Pierre J. Jeanniot, O.C., C.Q., formerly President and CEO of Air Canada and Director General and Chief Executive Officer of the International Air Transport Association ("IATA"), be elected in place of Mr. Sparks. These shareholders ("the Requisitioning Shareholders") state that they hold approximately 11.5 % of Star's outstanding shares.

The Board is currently considering the request. The Requisitioning Shareholders are believed to hold sufficient shares of the Company to be able to requisition a meeting under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario).

The Company remains committed to considering the views of its shareholders. The Board will consider the requisition and respond appropriately within 21 days. If the special meeting described proceeds, management will provide shareholders with more information by way of a Management Information Circular ("MIC") in advance of the meeting. Shareholders should read the MIC carefully before reaching a decision with regard to their votes.
