Arctic Glacier Income Fund (CNSX:AG.UN) ("Arctic Glacier") announced today it
has obtained an order (the "Canadian Court Approval and Vesting Order") of the
Manitoba Court of Queen's Bench (the "Canadian Court") pursuant to the
Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada) approving the previously announced
sale of substantially all Arctic Glacier's business and assets (the
"Transaction") to an affiliate of H.I.G. Capital (the "Purchaser"). 


The Transaction will be effected pursuant to an asset purchase agreement dated
June 7, 2012 (the "Agreement") between Arctic Glacier, its subsidiaries and the
Purchaser. The Canadian Court Approval and Vesting Order also extends the stay
of proceedings as against Arctic Glacier and its subsidiaries until September
14, 2012. It also provides for the vesting in the Purchaser of the rights, title
and interest in Arctic Glacier's assets, free and clear of all liens (subject to
certain limited exceptions) upon closing of the Transaction in accordance with
the terms of the Agreement.


Completion of the Transaction is expected to occur by July 31, 2012. Closing
remains subject to approval of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Delaware, pre-merger clearance in the United States, and the satisfaction of
certain closing conditions customary in transactions of this nature, including
the absence of a material adverse change in respect of Arctic Glacier.
