FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited

("Ocean Wilsons" or the "Company")

Update on sale of interest in Wilson Sons S.A. - satisfaction of conditions

Further to the Company's announcements on 21 October 2024 and 20 March 2025 regarding the agreed sale by its wholly-owned subsidiary, OW Overseas (Investments) Limited, of its 56% interest in Wilson Sons S.A. ("Wilson Sons") to SAS Shipping Agencies Services Sàrl, a wholly-owned subsidiary of MSC Mediterranean Shipping Company S.A. (the "Transaction"), the Company is pleased to provide an update on the Transaction.

As previously announced, completion of the Transaction is conditional on the receipt of applicable regulatory clearances and the satisfaction of other conditions precedent, as described in Appendix V to the Company's announcement on 21 October 2024 (the "Conditions"). Following the approval of the Transaction by the Brazilian Administrative Council for Economic Defense (Conselho Administrativo de Defesa Econômica - CADE), which became final and definitive on 3 April 2025, the approval of the Transaction by the Brazilian National Waterway Transportation Agency (Agência Nacional de Transportes Aquaviários - ANTAQ) (the "ANTAQ Condition") was formally published earlier today. The ANTAQ Condition was the final Condition to be satisfied in relation to the Transaction. The Company is therefore pleased to confirm that all Conditions have now been satisfied, ahead of the originally anticipated timeline.

Accordingly, completion of the Transaction is now expected to occur on or around 4 June 2025.  The Company will make a further announcement in due course to confirm, inter alia, completion of the Transaction and the quantum of the net proceeds actually received from it.
