Completion of Zamanita Disposal Transaction

Further to the announcements of 3 February 2015, 16 March 2015 and 8 April 2015, Zambeef (AIM:ZAM), the fully integrated agri-business with operations in Zambia, Nigeria and Ghana, is pleased to announce completion of the disposal of its wholly owned subsidiary, Zamanita Limited ("Zamanita"), to Cargill Holdings BV ("Cargill").

In line with the Sale and Purchase Agreement ("SPA"), the original Consideration of USD25.7 million has been adjusted for estimated closing working capital less estimated net financial debt, resulting in a final consideration figure payable by Cargill to Zambeef of USD26.43 million. Furthermore, in line with the SPA, all of Zamanita's third party financial debt (amounting to USD11.1 million) has been transferred out of the Group.

The final consideration of USD26.43 million was transferred by Cargill to Zambeef on 1 June 2015.

Of the eight conditions precedent required for Completion, seven have been fully satisfied and one has been varied as follows:

· The terms of the SPA required Zambeef to procure that Zamanita enters into a new lease agreement in respect of Stand number 4816 / private siding number 1143 ("New Lease Agreement"). The parties have agreed to vary this condition precedent so that Zambeef shall now obtain the New Lease Agreement within 30 Business Days of the Completion Date, of 1 June 2015.

Commenting, Joint Chief Executive of Zambeef, Carl Irwin said: "The completion of the sale of Zamanita is an important transaction for Zambeef as it rationalises our operational focus, reduces our exposure to foreign currency and commodity price fluctuations and, most importantly, strengthens our balance sheet."
