EXTENSION OF THE ACCEPTANCE PERIOD TO JUNE 28, 2024

Milan, June 20, 2024

With reference to the total voluntary public tender offer (the "Offer" or the "Tender Offer") pursuant to Articles 102 et seq. of Legislative Decree No. 58/1998 (the "TUF") promoted by S.G.G. Holding S.p.A. (the "Offeror") on the shares of SAES Getters S.p.A. (the "Issuer" or "SAES Getters" or "SAES"), the Offeror makes the following announcement.

Capitalized terms used in this press release, unless otherwise defined, are courtesy translations from the Italian language of the same definitions used in the offer document approved by Consob by resolution No. 23118 of May 21, 2024 (the "Offer Document") published on May 23, 2024 and available on the Issuer's website www.saesgetters.com.

EXTENSION OF THE ACCEPTANCE PERIOD

The Offeror announces, pursuant to Articles 36 and 43 of the Issuers' Regulations, that it has been agreed with Borsa Italiana the extension of the Acceptance Period by 5 (five) additional Trading Days, therefore:

  • (i) the Acceptance Period will end at 5.30 pm (Italian time) on June 28, 2024;
  • (ii) the Payment Date will take place on July 5, 2024, i.e. the fifth Trading Day following the closing date of the Acceptance Period.

The extension of the Acceptance Period is aimed at ensuring to the holders of Shares, especially among the general public, to benefit from a longer period of time to tender to the Offer, also in light of the increase in the Consideration announced on June 9, 2024.

The timetable below shows the main upcoming events related to the Offer.
