Other comments:

Pursuant to the merger agreement dated March 4, 2021, Salapo Beteiligungsverwaltungs GmbH, as transferor company, was merged with Custos Vermögungsverwaltungs GmbH, as acquiring company, when the registration was made in the Companies' Register on March 17, 2021. With this registration, the financial instruments of Custos Vermögungsverwaltungs GmbH created due to signing of the merger agreement were canceled and the stake that Salapo Beteiligungsverwaltungs GmbH held in Certus Beteiligungs-GmbH was transferred to Custos Vermögensverwaltungs GmbH. Hence, the latter now holds another 5.72% of the shares in ANDRITZ AG indirectly via Certus Beteiligungs-GmbH in addition to its previous 25% direct holding, thus bringing its total stake to 30.72%.
