September 29, 2025, Beyond Meat, Inc. (the &#8220;Company&#8221;) commenced an exchange offer (the &#8220;Exchange Offer&#8221;) to exchange any and all of its 0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 (the &#8220;Existing Convertible Notes&#8221;)
issued pursuant to the indenture governing such notes (the &#8220;Existing Convertible Notes Indenture&#8221;) dated as of March&nbsp;5, 2021, for a pro rata portion of (i)&nbsp;up to $202.5&nbsp;million in aggregate principal amount of its new
7.00% Convertible Senior Secured Second Lien PIK Toggle Notes due 2030 (the &#8220;New Convertible Notes&#8221;) and (ii)&nbsp;up to 326,190,370 shares of its common stock. Simultaneously with the Exchange Offer, the Company is soliciting consents
(the &#8220;Consent Solicitation&#8221;) from holders of the Existing Convertible Notes to adopt certain proposed amendments (the &#8220;Proposed Amendments&#8221;) to the Existing Convertible Notes Indenture. The Proposed Amendments would eliminate
substantially all of the restrictive covenants in the Existing Convertible Notes Indenture as well as certain events of default and related provisions applicable to the Existing Convertible Notes. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Offer, if, at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 10, 2025 (such time and date, as the same may be
extended, the &#8220;Early Tender Date&#8221;), all conditions to the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation have been or are concurrently satisfied or waived, the Company may, subject to the terms of the Transaction Support Agreement (as defined
below), accept for exchange (the &#8220;Early Settlement&#8221;) any Existing Convertible Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) at or prior to the Early Tender Date. The exchange for such Existing Convertible Notes would be made on the
second business day following the Early Tender Date (the &#8220;Early Settlement Date&#8221;), which is currently expected to occur as early as October 15, 2025. Whether or not the Early Settlement occurs, if all conditions to the Exchange Offer and
Consent Solicitation have been satisfied or waived at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 28, 2025 (such time and date, as the same may be extended, the &#8220;Expiration Deadline&#8221;), unless extended, the Company will consummate the
exchange of any Existing Convertible Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) at or prior to the Expiration Deadline on the second business day immediately following the Expiration Deadline (the &#8220;Final Settlement
Date&#8221;), which is currently expected to occur on October 30, 2025. It is a condition to the Exchange Offer that a minimum of 85% of the aggregate principal amount of Existing Convertible Notes shall have been validly tendered (and, if
applicable, not validly withdrawn). The Company&#8217;s ability to amend, extend, terminate, or waive the conditions of the Exchange Offer are subject to the terms of the Transaction Support Agreement. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation, eligible holders of Existing Convertible Notes who validly tender
(and do not validly withdraw) their Existing Convertible Notes and deliver their related consents at or prior to the Early Tender Date will be eligible to receive for each $1,000 in aggregate principal amount of Existing Convertible Notes validly
tendered for exchange, $176.0870 in aggregate principal amount of New Convertible Notes and 283.6438 shares of common stock. Eligible holders who validly tender Existing Convertible Notes after the Early Tender Date but at or prior to the Expiration
Deadline, and whose Existing Convertible Notes are accepted for exchange by the Company, will receive for each $1,000 in aggregate principal amount of Existing Convertible Notes validly tendered for exchange, $170.8044 in aggregate principal amount
of New Convertible Notes and 283.6438 shares of common stock. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If the Exchange Offer is consummated, the New Convertible Notes issued in the exchange will
be secured, second lien obligations of the Company. The New Convertible Notes will mature on the date that is the fifth anniversary of the initial settlement date of such New Convertible Notes, unless earlier redeemed, converted, equitized or
repurchased in accordance with the terms of the New Convertible Notes. The New Convertible Notes will bear interest at a rate of 7.00% per annum from the initial settlement date of such New Convertible Notes, which interest may be paid in cash or,
subject to certain limitations, in shares of common stock. At the option of the Company, interest on the New Convertible Notes may be accrued and compounded in whole or in part for any interest period as <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#8220;payment-in-kind&#8221;</FONT></FONT> interest at a rate of 9.50% per annum from the initial settlement date of such New Convertible Notes. Initially, the New Convertible Notes will not be guaranteed; however, the
Company will agree to cause its future wholly-owned subsidiaries, subject to certain customary exceptions, to guarantee the New Convertible Notes, and will also agree to take commercially reasonable efforts, including seeking advice and consultation
procedures with the works council, to cause its subsidiary, Beyond Meat EU B.V., a private company with limited liability (<I>besloten</I><I> </I><I>vennootschap</I><I> met </I><I>beperkte</I><I> </I><I>aansprakelijkheid</I>) incorporated under the

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The conversion rate for the New Convertible Notes will initially be a number of shares of common stock per
$1,000 principal amount of New Convertible Notes equal to the lesser of (i) 1,029.2716 and (ii)&nbsp;an amount calculated based on a 10% premium to a reference price determined over an observation period consisting of 20 consecutive trading days
immediately following the initial settlement date of any New Convertible Notes, with such conversion rate subject to customary adjustments. The conversion rate will be increased for conversions occurring prior to the date that is three years from
the initial settlement date of any New Convertible Notes to reflect a &#8220;make-whole&#8221; premium, payable in the form of shares of common stock, to compensate holders for interest that would have been payable to such date. </P>

allow the issuance of common stock pursuant to the terms of the New Convertible Notes, the Company will be permitted to satisfy its obligations upon conversion of the New Convertible Notes only in the form of cash settlement. Following such
stockholder approval, the Company will be permitted to satisfy its obligations under the New Convertible Notes with any settlement method it is otherwise permitted to elect, including by physical settlement of shares of common stock. A holder of New
Convertible Notes will not be permitted to convert its New Convertible Notes at any time prior to the earlier of, (a)&nbsp;the date of the first special meeting at which the Company seeks stockholder approval of such proposals, whether or not such
approvals are obtained and (b)&nbsp;the date that is 61 calendar days following the initial settlement date of the New Convertible Notes. The New Convertible Notes will be convertible at any time following such date and prior to the close of
business on the second trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The indenture that will govern the New Convertible Notes (the &#8220;New
Convertible Notes Indenture&#8221;) will include incurrence based negative covenants, including but not limited to, limitations on debt, limitations on liens, limitations on investments, limitations on mergers, consolidations, and sales of all or
substantially all assets, limitations on transactions with affiliates, limitations on restricted payments, limitations on asset sales, limitations on dividends and other payment restrictions affecting any direct or indirect subsidiaries, limitations
on future guarantees by subsidiaries without such subsidiaries also guaranteeing the New Convertible Notes, limitations on disposals of assets, limitations on impairment of security, a negative pledge on the assets of the Dutch Entity if it does not
guarantee the New Convertible Notes and restrictions on certain liability management priming transactions with respect to the New Convertible Notes. The New Convertible Notes Indenture will also include a covenant requiring minimum liquidity of
$15.0&nbsp;million, to be tested quarterly, a requirement that the Company will not permit more than $60.0&nbsp;million in aggregate principal amount of the Existing Convertible Notes to remain outstanding as of or following the date that is 90 days
prior to the maturity of the Existing Convertible Notes, a covenant that limits the Company&#8217;s ability to repurchase, redeem, retire, exchange or otherwise acquire the Existing Convertible Notes other than pursuant to the prices and other
conditions to be set forth in the New Convertible Notes Indenture and a cap of $60.0&nbsp;million on the amount of cash that can be used to repay the Existing Convertible Notes at the maturity of such notes, subject to increase to the extent of any
equity raises by the Company. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under certain circumstances and subject to conditions set forth in the New Convertible Notes Indenture, the Company may
elect to redeem, equitize or force a mandatory conversion of the New Convertible Notes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If certain corporate events constituting a make-whole fundamental
change occur (which shall include, among other things, the acquisition by any person or group of more than 50% of the outstanding common stock of the Company or a delisting of the Company&#8217;s common stock), the Company shall offer to repurchase
