Wednesday, July 15, 2009
DENVER — Intermap (TSX: IMP.TO, AIM: IMAP.L) today announced that it will cancel the admission to trading on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange ('AIM') of its common shares (the 'Common Shares') (the 'Cancellation') with effect from 7:00 a.m. GMT on Thursday, 13 August, 2009 (the 'Cancellation Date'). The last trading day on AIM of the Common Shares will therefore be Wednesday, 12 August, 2009. The Company will maintain its primary listing of Common Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) in Canada. This decision follows a review of the AIM listing by the Company's Board of Directors (the 'Board'). In coming to its conclusions, the Board considered in particular the low levels of liquidity on the AIM, the Company's Canadian focussed shareholder base, the comparable dealing facility on the TSX, and the additional costs associated with maintaining a listing on AIM. These factors have led the Board to conclude that the Cancellation is in the best interests of the Company as a whole. With the maintenance of the Company's listing of the Common Shares on the TSX, shareholders wishing to trade Common Shares after the Cancellation Date will be able to do so through that market. Shareholders should not therefore be materially prejudiced by the Cancellation. Prior to the AIM Cancellation Date, UK shareholders may continue to trade their Common Shares on AIM. While CREST Depositary Interest ("CDI") holders will not be required to move their holdings from CREST until such time as they wish to trade their CDIs, or transfer them to the Canadian Depository System ("CDS"), the Company encourages shareholders to migrate their holdings of Common Shares from AIM/CREST to TSX /CDS as soon as practicable. Shareholders are advised to consult their usual stockbroker, CREST sponsor, bank manager, solicitor, accountant or other independent professional adviser for the procedure to follow to transmit their Common Shares to the Canadian shareholder register, or to contact Computershare Investor Services PLC, the Pavilions, Bridgewater Road, Bristol BS13 8AE, United Kingdom, Telephone: +44 (0) 870 702 0000, www.computershare.com web.queries (at)computershare.co.uk for the procedure to follow.
