Regional General Counsel, Mag. Alexander Krause.   Each agenda item requested in this manner must be accompanied by a proposed resolution and justification. Shareholder status must be proven by submitting a custody confirmation in accordance with Section 10a of the Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG), confirming that the shareholders submitting the request have been shareholders for at least three months prior to the request and that the confirmation is not older than seven days at the time of submission to the company.   With regard to the other requirements for the securities account confirmation, please refer to the information on eligibility to participate (Section III).   Shareholder proposals for the agenda pursuant to Section 110 AktG Shareholders whose shares individually or collectively reach 1% of the share capital may submit proposals for resolutions in writing, including reasons, on any item on the agenda and request that these proposals, together with the names of the shareholders concerned, the reasons given and any comments by the Executive Board or Supervisory Board, be made available on the company's website as entered in the commercial register, provided that this request is received by the company in text form at by March 17, 2026 (midnight CET) at the latest by post, courier, or in person to ANDRITZ AG, Eibesbrunnergasse 20, A-1120 Vienna, Legal Department, attn. Regional General Counsel, Mag. Alexander Krause, or by email to [e-mail], whereby the request in text form, for example as a PDF, must be attached to the email.   In the case of a proposal for the election of a member of the Supervisory Board, the statement of the proposed person pursuant to Section 87 (2) AktG shall replace the justification. Shareholder status must be proven by submitting a securities account confirmation in accordance with Section 10a AktG, which must not be older than seven days at the time of submission to the company. With regard to the other requirements for the securities account confirmation, please refer to the information on eligibility to participate (Section III).   Information pursuant to Section 110 (2) sentence 2 in conjunction with Section 86 (7) and (9) AktG The Supervisory Board of ANDRITZ AG currently consists of six members elected by the Annual General Meeting (capital representatives) and three members delegated by the Works Council in accordance with Section 110 of the Austrian Labor Constitution Act (ArbVG). Of the six capital representatives, three are men and three are women; of the employee representatives, two are men and one is a woman.   Both the capital representatives and the employee representatives on the Supervisory Board already meet the 30% quota pursuant to Section 86 (7) AktG via the minimum share requirement.   ANDRITZ AG is subject to the scope of application of Section 86 (7) AktG and must take into account the minimum share requirement pursuant to Section 86 (7) AktG.   No objection pursuant to Section 86 (9) AktG was raised by either the majority of the capital representatives or the majority of the employee representatives, meaning that the minimum share requirement pursuant to Section 86 (7) AktG is fulfilled in its entirety rather than separately.   Shareholders' right to information pursuant to Section 118 AktG Upon request, every shareholder shall be provided with information on matters relating to the company at the Annual General Meeting, insofar as this is necessary for the proper assessment of an item on the agenda. The duty to provide information also extends to the legal relationships between the company and an affiliated company, as well as to the situation of the group and the companies included in the consolidated financial statements.   Information may be refused if, based on reasonable business judgment, it is likely to cause significant harm to the company or an affiliated company, or if providing it would be punishable by law.   Requests for information must generally be made verbally at the Annual General Meeting but may also be made in writing.   Questions that require lengthy preparation to answer may be submitted to the Executive Board in writing in good time before the Annual General Meeting to ensure that the meeting runs efficiently. Questions can be sent to the company by email to [e-mail].   Motions by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting pursuant to Section 119 AktG Every shareholder is entitled to submit motions on any item on the agenda at the Annual General Meeting, regardless of the size of their shareholding. If several motions are submitted on one item on the agenda, the chairperson shall determine the order of voting in accordance with Section 119 (3) AktG.   However, a shareholder motion to elect a member of the Supervisory Board requires the timely submission of a proposed resolution in accordance with Section 110 AktG: Persons for election to the Supervisory Board (item 7 of the agenda) may only be proposed by shareholders whose shares together amount to 1% of the share capital. Such nominations must be received by the company no later than March 17, 2026, in the manner specified above (item V (2)). Each nomination must be accompanied by a declaration in accordance with Section 87 (2) AktG from the proposed person regarding their professional qualifications, their professional or comparable functions, and any circumstances that could give rise to concerns about bias.   Otherwise, the shareholders’ proposal for the election of a member of the Supervisory Board may not be considered in the vote.   Information on shareholder data protection ANDRITZ AG processes the personal data of shareholders (in particular those specified in Section 10a (2) of the Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG), i.e., name, address, date of birth, securities account number, number of shares held by the shareholder, type of shares (if applicable), number of the voting card, and, if applicable, name and date of birth of the proxy) on the basis of the applicable data protection regulations, in particular the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Austrian Data Protection Act, in order to enable shareholders to exercise their rights at the Annual General Meeting.   The processing of shareholders' personal data is mandatory for shareholders and their representatives to participate in the Annual General Meeting in accordance with the Austrian Stock Corporation Act. The legal basis for the processing is therefore Article 6 (1) c) GDPR.   ANDRITZ AG is the responsible body for the processing. ANDRITZ AG uses external service providers such as notaries, lawyers, banks, and IT service providers for the purpose of organizing the Annual General Meeting. These service providers receive from ANDRITZ AG only such personal data as is necessary for the performance of the commissioned service and process the data exclusively in accordance with the instructions of ANDRITZ AG. Where legally necessary, ANDRITZ AG has concluded a data protection agreement with these service providers.   If a shareholder attends the Annual General Meeting, all shareholders present or their representatives, the members of the Executive Board and Supervisory Board, the notary public ( ) and all other persons with a legal right to attend may inspect the legally required list of participants (Section 117 of the Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG)) and thus also view the personal data contained therein (including name, place of residence, shareholding ratio). ANDRITZ AG is also legally obliged to submit personal shareholder data (in particular the list of participants) to the commercial register as part of the notarial minutes (§ 120 AktG).   Shareholder data will be anonymized or deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or processed, unless other legal obligations require further storage. Documentation and retention obligations arise in particular from corporate, stock, and takeover law, tax and fiscal law, and money laundering regulations. If legal claims are brought by shareholders against ANDRITZ AG or, conversely, by ANDRITZ AG against shareholders, the storage of personal data serves to clarify and enforce claims in individual cases. In connection with civil court proceedings, this may lead to data being stored for the duration of the limitation period plus the duration of the court proceedings until their final conclusion.   Every shareholder has the right to access, rectify, restrict, object to, and erase the processing of personal data at any time, as well as the right to data portability in accordance with Chapter III of the GDPR. Shareholders can exercise these rights free of charge vis-à-vis ANDRITZ AG by sending an email to [e-mail].   In addition, shareholders have the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection supervisory authority in accordance with Article 77 GDPR.   Further information on data protection can be found in the privacy policy on the ANDRITZ AG website at andritz.com.   VI. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND NOTES   Total number of shares and voting rights At the time of convening the Annual General Meeting, the company's share capital amounts to EUR 104,000,000 and is divided into 104,000,000 no-par value bearer shares. Each share grants one vote. At the time of convening the Annual General Meeting, the company holds 5,861,016 treasury shares. These do not entitle the company to any rights, including voting rights. Any changes in the number of treasury shares held by the time of the Annual General Meeting will be announced at the meeting. There are no multiple classes of shares.   Graz, February 2026 The Executive Board
