ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

EXPERIENCE CO COMPLETES ACQUISITION OF BIG CAT GREEN ISLAND REEF CRUISES

Experience Co Limited ( EXP or “the Company”) hereby confirms the completion of the company’s business acquisition of Big Cat Green Island Reef Cruises Pty Ltd ( Big Cat ), yesterday evening.

Big Cat is one of Far North Queensland’s leading Great Barrier Reef outer-reef operators, based out of Cairns.

Executive Director of EXP, Mr Anthony Ritter, said the Big Cat acquisition further strengthens EXP’s position in Far North Queensland adventure tourism and experience market.

“We are fortunate enough to be able to add more world-class products to our portfolio of highly recognisable and respected company and adventure brands. Cruises to Green Island where customers can enjoy snorkelling, glass bottom boat and semi-submersible tours along with daytime and twilight cruises on the Cairns Harbour and through the Trinity Inlet are fantastic experiences.

When you add this acquisition to the existing products we offer customers, we are well on our way in becoming the largest and most respected adventure tourism company in the world.”
