Oz Brewing's 3D takeover still alive

Oz Brewing still intends to acquire all of the assets used in the operation of a 3D printing business despite 3D Group going into administration.

The reverse takeover of a 3D printing company by a West Australian brewer has been complicated by the printing group being placed in voluntary administration.

But Oz Brewing said it still intends to acquire all of 3D Group's printing business assets.

The administrator of 3D Group has agreed to sell the printing assets to a company called 333D, and Oz Brewing will now acquire 333D.

The proposed 333D takeover is substantially on the same terms as the proposed deal with 3D Group, which Oz Brewing announced in July 2014.

Oz Brewing will issue shares and options to 333D as consideration for the purchase of 333D.

After the acquisition of 333D is completed, Oz Brewing's board will retire and will be replaced by directors nominated by 333D.

When the takeover is completed, pending various shareholder and regulatory approvals and a capital raising, Oz Brewing will change its activities to 3D printing.

It was previously behind the Mad Monk range of beers, produced in WA's Swan Valley.

Shares in Oz Brewing were down 0.1 cents at 0.3 cents, after being suspended from trade since January 6.
