    <div><br>
    </div>
    <div>On December 28, 2001, Albany International Corp. (the &#8220;Registrant&#8221;) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration Statement No. 333-76078) registering 100,000 shares of the Registrant&#8217;s Class
      A Common Stock, par value $.001 per share (the &#8220;Common Stock&#8221;), as well as plan interests, to be issued to participants under the Albany International Corp. Prosperity Plus Savings Plan (the &#8220;Plan&#8221;).</div>
    <div>&#160;</div>
    <div>Effective February 28, 2023, the Company terminated The Albany International Stock Fund as an investment option for participants in the Plan. All participant balances were converted to other investments as directed by investment selections of the
      participants, or to a qualified default investment alternative, as applicable. Accordingly, the Registrant is no longer issuing securities under the Plan and no further investments in the Registrant&#8217;s securities may be made under the Plan. Pursuant
      to the undertaking contained in the Registration Statement to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities registered that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant is filing this Post
      Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement to deregister, and does hereby remove from registration, any shares of Common Stock and any plan interests registered but that remain unsold as of the date hereof.</div>
