Tripp Levy PLLC Investigates Management Buyout of OMNI Energy

Tripp Levy PLLC announces an investigation into the proposed acquisition of OMNI Energy Services Corp. (NASDAQ: OMNI). On June 4, 2010, OMNI announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement under which OMNI’s CEO, Brian Recatto, along with two other directors of OMNI, and Wellspring Capital Management LLC ("Wellspring") will acquire all of OMNI's outstanding shares that they do not already own for $2.75 per share in cash. The total value of the transaction is approximately $122 million, including assumption of debt.

The investigation concerns, among other things, whether the consideration to be paid to OMNI shareholders is grossly unfair, inadequate, and substantially below the fair or inherent value of OMNI. The investigation further concerns whether the directors of OMNI may have breached their fiduciary duties by not acting in OMNI shareholders' best interests in connection with the sale process of OMNI.
