1. Risk Factors

On page 3 of the Prospectus in the section "Risk Factors with regard to the Issuers - Risk factors relating to EnBW AG and EnBW Group", sub-section"Financial Risks" the risk factor "Risk related to Changes in Interest Rates" shall be replaced by the following:

"

Risk related to Changes in Interest Rates

Key factors influencing the present value of nuclear power and pension provisions are interest and inflation rates.

There is a general risk due to any change in the discount rate applied to the pension provisions, because the present value of the pension provisions falls when the discount rate increases and increases when the discount rate falls. As of 30 September 2022, the discount rate stood at 3.75% in comparison to 1.15% as of 31 December 2021.

The future development of interest rates could have a negative impact on net debt and thus an impact on EnBW's key performance indicator debt repayment potential.

"

2. Risk Factors

On page 4 of the Prospectus in the section "Risk Factors with regard to the Issuers - Risk factors relating to EnBW AG and EnBW Group", sub-section"Financial Risks" the risk factor "Margins and Liquidity Risk" shall be replaced by the following:

"

Margins and Liquidity Risk

The EnBW Group's liquidity planning is subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty, especially with respect to margin payments. Sharp increases in prices and high volatility in energy trading on the commodity markets (EEX/ICE) have led to high cash inflows and outflows as part of margining processes that are beyond the normal margin requirements. There is a material level of risk for 2022 with an impact on EnBW's net debt and thus on EnBW's the key performance indicator debt repayment potential.

"

3. Risk Factors

On page 4 of the Prospectus in the section "Risk Factors with regard to the Issuers - Risk factors relating to EnBW AG and EnBW Group", sub-section"Political/ Regulatory Risks" the risk factor "Political risk from the Russia - Ukraine Conflict" shall be replaced by the following:

"

Political risk from the Russia - Ukraine Conflict

Throughout 2021, the Russian military build-up along the border of Ukraine has escalated tensions between Russia and Ukraine and strained bilateral relations. On 24 February 2022, Russia commenced a full-scale military invasion of Ukraine. Following the invasion of Ukraine, the EU and countries like the United States, UK, Switzerland, Canada, Japan, Australia and some other countries imposed a broad set of sanctions against Russia (hereinafter, the "Russia - Ukraine Conflict").

Cuts in supply and possible changes in supply quotas have meant that replacement gas has to be procured at higher prices and there are also uncertainties with respect to potential compensatory mechanisms. These risks are all especially relevant to VNG, which is impacted by two gas supply contracts. It was possible to reach an agreement with the suppliers for one of the two contracts. In the case of the second contract, EnBW has accounted for the full costs of replacement procurement up to the end of 2022. There is still a level of risk associated with the transport and distribution of natural gas

and the legally regulated ban on gas-fired electricity generation. This would have an impact on EnBW's key performance indicator adjusted EBITDA and thus an indirect impact on EnBW's key performance indicator debt repayment potential via the retained cash flow.

There is currently a high level of regulatory and political uncertainty in the implementation of the Energy Security Act (Energiesicherungsgesetz - "EnSiG"). In connection with this, there is also uncertainty in the following areas: funding of renewable energies, expansion of the grid, the future of the gas infrastructure and expansion of electromobility. There are risks associated with any change to the legal regulations that have a bearing on EnBW. Due to the greater level of uncertainty, mainly as a result of the Russia - Ukraine Conflict (e.g., deficit in gas supplies, purchasing of replacement coal), the risks could increase.

If any of the above risks materialises, this could have a material adverse effect on EnBW's business, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations.

"

4. Risk Factors

On page 4 of the Prospectus in the section "Risk Factors with regard to the Issuers - Risk factors relating to EnBW AG and EnBW Group", sub-section"Political/ Regulatory Risks" the risk factor "Risk related to Changes in Regulation" shall be replaced by the following:

"

Risk related to Changes in Regulation

EnBW and its operations are subject to significant regulation and supervision by various regulatory bodies, including German municipal, state, federal and European Union ("EU") authorities. This affects the following segments in the respective areas:

  • Incentive regulation (Anreizregulierung) regarding the Grids segment, and
  • German Renewable Energies Act (Erneuerbare Energien Gesetz, ("EEG")) regarding the Generation and Trading segment.

Any material adverse change in the aforementioned regulation may result in increased operational and administrative expenses and thus may adversely affect earnings for the EnBW Group, the EnBW Group's balance sheet and net debt.

This also applies to the application and interpretation of the aforementioned regulations. In addition, in the existing planning of the dismantling costs for nuclear power plants, it was assumed that the so-called"self-supply entitlement" can be used for the electricity supplied to the blocks during the post-operation and dismantling stages. Therefore, the costings for the consumption of electricity do not contain any EEG cost allocations. There is a risk that the self-supply entitlement cannot be applied, which will result in increased dismantling costs.

In addition to the above risks, there is currently an increased level of regulatory and political uncertainty due to the energy crisis, which could have an impact on the EnBW Group, with respect to the compensatory mechanisms for the procurement of gas to replace Russian gas deliveries at significantly higher prices due to the cancellation of the gas surcharge and to the ongoing discussions about windfall profit levy on power generated with certain technologies that may even be applied retroactively and about possible plans to provide relief to consumers. In particular there is also uncertainty in the following areas: funding of renewable energies, expansion of the grid, the future of the gas infrastructure and expansion of electromobility. There are risks associated with any change to the legal regulations that have a bearing on EnBW.

If any of the above risks materialises, this may have material adverse effects on EnBW's net assets and may lead to lower earnings.

5. Risk Factors

On page 5 of the Prospectus in the section "Risk Factors with regard to the Issuers - Risk factors relating to EnBW AG and EnBW Group", sub-section"Market risks" the risk factor "Risks to the procurement and supply chain in the sales and sustainable generation infrastructure segment"

shall be replaced by the following:

"

Risks to the procurement and supply chain in the sales environment and sustainable generation infrastructure segment

Unexpected price spikes are being experienced on the spot markets for procurement at the moment. EnBW holds reserve supplies for B2C customers and thus has to act as a last resort provider of electricity for customers if their supplier cannot provide them with electricity anymore. Insolvencies of other energy suppliers could therefore pose a financial risk if more customers than expected have to be provided with a basic supply of energy at higher procurement prices.

Due to the protracted COVID-19 pandemic, the effects of the Russia - Ukraine Conflict and increasing inflation, unplanned price increases and exceptionally long delivery times in certain cases, especially for materials and supplies are expected.

Against the background of the current market environment, lower consumption by customers depending on the temperature could also result in risks. This risk as well as above-mentioned procurement and supply chain risks could have a negative impact on EnBW's key performance indicator adjusted EBITDA in 2022 and 2023 and thus an indirect impact on EnBW's key performance indicator debt repayment potential via the retained cash flow.

"

6. Risk Factors

On page 6 of the Prospectus in the section "Risk Factors with regard to the Issuers - Risk factors relating to EnBW AG and EnBW Group", sub-section"Operational Risks" the following new risk factor shall be added above the risk factor "Availability of Power plants":

"

Block II of the Neckarwestheim nuclear power plant - supporting the security of supply

EnBW is preparing for the possibility that Block II of the Neckarwestheim nuclear power plant must remain in operation until 15 April 2023 to support the security of supply and grid stability as the German Cabinet approved the draft for another amendment to the Nuclear Energy Act (Kernenergiegesetz) on 19 October 2022. There is a risk that the German government may not fully reimburse the preparation costs for unutilised generation capacities. This would have an impact on EnBW's key performance indicator adjusted EBITDA and thus an indirect impact on EnBW's key performance indicator debt repayment potential via the retained cash flow.

"

7. Risk Factors

On page 6 of the Prospectus in the section "Risk Factors with regard to the Issuers - Risk factors relating to EnBW AG and EnBW Group", sub-section"Operational Risks" the risk factor "Availability of power plants" shall be replaced by the following:

"

Availability of power plants

There is a general risk that exogenous and endogenous factors will have an influence on the availability of power plants. Depending on the duration of the interruption to the operation of the power plant and the prices on the energy trading market, this could have a negative impact on the operating result. For the remainder of 2022, there is a material level of risk in this area. This may have an impact on EnBW's
