Vienna, Bregenz, January 26, 2016. Wolford AG, which is listed on the
Vienna Stock Exchange, sold a total of 11,860 of its own ordinary
bearer shares on January 22, 2016 at a selling price of EUR 21.08 per
share within the context of its Long Term Incentive Program for the
members of the Management Board. These shares were acquired by Ashish
Sensarma, CEO, and Axel Dreher, COO/CFO, on January 22, 2016, and
will be held until April 30, 2018 in accordance with the stipulated
retention period. Accordingly, Wolford still has a total of 88,140
own (treasury) shares in its possession. Further sales of own shares
within the context of the intended sale of own shares as stipulated
in the announcement made by Wolford Aktiengesellschaft on January 18,
2016 pursuant to Section 5 VeröffentlV will not take place. The total
value of the shares which were sold amounted to EUR 250,000. The
purchase and sale of the shares took place over- the-counter.

In order to create an additional incentive for the Members of the
Management Board to sustainably contribute to the success of the
Wolford Group on the basis of their performance, the company has
granted the members of the Management Board a long term bonus (i.e.
long term incentive) for the 2015/16, 2016/17 and 2017/18 financial
years in the form of stock appreciation rights. In this way, the
total remuneration of the Management Board team will be closely tied
to the earnings and share price development of the company.

Within the context of this Long Term Incentive Program, both members
of the Management Board have now made substantial own investments in
shares of Wolford AG, acquiring a total of 11,860 shares in the
company. The weighted average value of the share amounts to EUR 21.08
per share. In order to underline the close ties to the Wolford Group
and the long term nature of these investments, the Management Board
team is also committed to holding these shares at least until and
including April 30, 2018. The purchase price, determined in line with
the Report of the Supervisory Board to the Annual General Meeting
held on September 17, 2015, corresponded to the average share price
during the period December 10, 2014 to April 30, 2015.

In accordance with the objectives of the Long Term Incentive Program,
the Management Board of the Wolford Group is committed to a
sustainably oriented corporate development. With this in mind, the
Management Board team resolutely continued the transformation process
at Wolford over the past months, implementing the core restructuring
measures and thus creating a good basis for sustainably profitable
growth of the Wolford Group in the coming years.
