  1. Other comments:

Through its indirect subsidiaries B&C KB Holding GmbH and B&C Ares Holding GmbH, B&C Privatstiftung holds a total of 20,177,020 voting rights (corresponding to approximately 52.25% of the share capital and voting rights) in Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft.

In the course of an intra-group demerger for absorption, 9,654,545 voting rights (corresponding to 25% of the share capital and voting rights) in Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft are to be spun off from B&C KB Holding GmbH to B&C Delta Zweite Holding GmbH. With the implementation of this demerger, the chain of controlled undertakings will change with regard to these 9,654,545 voting rights (corresponding to 25% of the share capital and voting rights) in Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft. The voting rights affected by this demerger are hereby announced as a financial instrument pursuant to section 131 BörseG 2018.

In addition, it is pointed out that the same voting rights are also reported as a financial instrument held by B&C Epsilon Zweite Holding GmbH, which is to acquire the shareholding in B&C Delta Zweite Holding GmbH (and thus indirectly these 9,654,545 voting rights in Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft) in the course of a further demerger (see notification of shareholding dated June 28, 2024).
