ASX Announcement

8 July 2022

PROPOSED TRANSACTION UPDATE & LIFTING OF VOLUNTARY SUSPENSION

The Board of Wingara AG Limited (ASX:WNR) (“ Wingara ” or the “ Company ”) provides an update regarding the Suspension from Quotation (“ Voluntary Suspension ”) as announced to the ASX on 15 June 2022. Wingara entered into a Voluntary Suspension in order to allow the ASX to consider a proposed transaction (“ Transaction ”) under Listing Rule 11.1. Gaining affirmative ASX in-principle advice was a key condition precedent to the Transaction.

Following discussions with the ASX, it was considered unlikely that the Transaction would receive ASX approval and consequently there was no certainty that the Transaction would complete. Both Wingara and the counterparty to the Transaction have confirmed that they will not be proceeding with the Transaction in the form and structure contemplated.

Commenting on the Transaction Wingara Chief Executive Officer James Whiteside said:

“The Board of Wingara understands and accepts the position of the ASX in respect of the Transaction. In withdrawing the Transaction from consideration, we have made a pragmatic decision in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. The impending sale of Austco Polar Cold Storage puts the business in a strong position to pursue its future as an independent company focused on the oaten hay and fodder industry and we will continue to assess opportunities to accelerate our strategy through both organic and inorganic growth.”

Austco Polar Cold Storage Update

As announced to the ASX on 22 June 2022, Wingara has entered into binding agreements for the sale of Austco Polar Cold Storage (“ APCS ”). The transaction process continues to progress well, and is on track to be completed by the nominated completion date, being 5 August 2022.

Lifting of Voluntary Suspension

Given ASX has completed its review of the Transaction and the Transaction will not be pursued at this time, Wingara has requested the reinstatement to trading of its ordinary shares at the commencement of trading on 11 July 2022.

The Company can confirm its compliance with ASX Listing Rule 3.1

This announcement has been approved for release by the Board of Directors of Wingara AG Limited.
