2021 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of Ferroglobe Plc ('Ferroglobe' or the 'Company')

I am pleased to enclose the notice of Ferroglobe's annual general meeting of its shareholders (the 'Annual General Meeting' or 'AGM'), to be held at 13:00 (British Summer Time) on Tuesday, 29 June 2021 at the Company's offices at 13 Chesterfield Street, London, W1J 5JN, United Kingdom. The accompanying notice of Annual General Meeting ('Notice') describes the meeting, the resolutions you will be asked to consider and vote upon and related matters.

Our preference had been to welcome shareholders in person to our 2021 Annual General Meeting, particularly given the constraints we faced in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, at present, gatherings are limited to up to six persons from different households. We are therefore proposing to hold the Annual General Meeting at 13 Chesterfield Street, London, W1J 5JN, United Kingdom with the minimum attendance required to form a quorum. Shareholders will not be permitted to attend the Annual General Meeting in person but can be represented by the Chair of the meeting acting as their proxy. This means that shareholders will not be able to attend the meeting in person and anyone who attempts to do so will be turned away. Given the constantly evolving nature of the situation, should circumstances change before the time of the Annual General Meeting, we want to ensure that we are able to adapt arrangements and to welcome shareholders to the Annual General Meeting, within safety constraints and in accordance with government guidelines. Should we consider that it has become possible to do so, we will provide any updates on our Annual General Meeting on our website at https://investor.ferroglobe.com/annual-general-meetings as early as is possible before the date of the meeting. Please note that if the situation in the U.K. does not change, it will not be possible for you to do so.

Your vote is important, regardless of the number of shares you own. We therefore strongly encourage you to place your vote by proxy on the resolutions in the Notice. You may vote via the internet, by phone or by mail by signing, dating and returning your proxy card in the envelope provided. Given the restrictions on attendance, please appoint the 'Chairman of the Meeting' as your proxy, rather than another person who will not be permitted to attend. To ensure your vote is counted, please ensure that your proxy vote is submitted through the relevant channels by not later than 00:01 BST on Monday, 28 June 2021.

If you have questions on any matter which you would otherwise put to the Company at the AGM, please email them to the Company using the 'Contact Us' form on the Company's corporate website at https://investor.ferroglobe.com/contact-us and we will respond to you directly.

Recommendation

We consider all resolutions proposed to shareholders at the Annual General Meeting to be standard business. You will find an explanation of each resolution within the Explanatory Notes on pages 3 to 8 of this pack. The Company's board of directors (the 'Board') considers that all the resolutions to be put to the Annual General Meeting are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole and are most likely to promote the success of the Company. The Board unanimously recommends that you vote in favour of each of the proposed resolutions, as the members of the Board intend to do in respect of their beneficial holdings.

Thank you for your continued support of Ferroglobe.

Yours sincerely,

Javier López Madrid

NOTICE OF 2021 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

To the holders of ordinary shares of Ferroglobe Plc ('Ferroglobe' or the 'Company'):

Notice is hereby given that Ferroglobe's Annual General Meeting of shareholders will be held on Tuesday, 29 June 2021 at 13:00 (British Summer Time), at the offices of the Company at 13 Chesterfield Street, London, W1J 5JN, United Kingdom ('U.K.').

The business of the Annual General Meeting will be to consider and, if thought fit, pass the resolutions below. All resolutions will be proposed as ordinary resolutions.

The Board is required to present at the Annual General Meeting the U.K. Annual Report and Accounts for the financial year ended 31 December 2020, including the Directors' Report, the Auditor's Report on the U.K. Annual Report and Accounts and those parts of the Directors' Remuneration Report which have been audited.

Resolution 1 is an advisory vote. In the event that the AGM proceeds as a closed meeting as currently envisaged, shareholders may pose relevant and appropriate questions on the U.K. Annual Report and Accounts (whether addressed to the Board or its auditors) by email to the Company Secretary in advance of the meeting as set out in the letter under cover of which this Notice is sent.

Resolution 2 (directors' annual remuneration report)

Resolution 2 is an advisory vote to approve the directors' annual remuneration report for the year ended 31 December 2020. The directors' remuneration report is set out on pages 30 to 31 and 44 to 55 of the U.K. Annual Report and Accounts. It provides information on the remuneration of the directors for 2020 and that proposed for 2021; it includes a statement by the Acting Chairman of the Compensation Committee but excludes the directors' remuneration policy which was approved by shareholders at the AGM in 2019.

Resolutions 3 to 13 (directors seeking election or re-election)

In line with best practice in corporate governance, all our directors retire annually and, if agreed with them that they will continue in office, they offer themselves for re-election by the shareholders. Any director appointed by the Board since the last Annual General Meeting must stand for election at the next Annual General Meeting. Belen Villalonga, Silvia Villar-Mir de Fuentes, Nicolas De Santis, and Rafael Barrilero Yarnoz were appointed by the Board on 13 May 2021 following the last Annual General Meeting and now stand for election.

The biographies of the directors standing for election or re-election at the Annual General Meeting are set out below to enable shareholders to make an informed decision on their election or re-election, as appropriate.

Further notes:

1. Some of the resolutions are items that are required to be approved by shareholders periodically under the Companies Act and generally do not have an analogous requirement under United States laws and regulations. As such, while these resolutions may be familiar and routine to shareholders accustomed to being shareholders of companies incorporated in England and Wales, other shareholders may be less familiar with these routine resolutions and should review and consider each resolution carefully.
2. In accordance with the Articles, all resolutions will be taken on a poll. Voting on a poll will mean that each Ordinary Share represented in person or by proxy will be counted in the vote.
3. All resolutions will be proposed as ordinary resolutions, which means that such resolutions must be passed by a simple majority of the total voting rights of shareholders who vote on such resolutions, whether in person or by proxy. The results of the shareholders' vote on resolutions 1 and 2 regarding receipt of the U.K. Annual Report and Accounts and approval of the Directors' Annual Remuneration Report will not require the Board or any Committee thereof to take (or refrain from taking) any action. The Board values the opinion of shareholders as expressed through such resolutions and will carefully consider the outcome of the votes on resolutions 1 and 2.
4. 'Shareholders of record' are those persons registered in the register of members of the Company in respect of Ordinary Shares at 14:00 (British Summer Time) on 4 May 2021. If, however, Ordinary Shares are held for you in a stock brokerage account or by a broker, bank or other nominee, you are considered the 'beneficial owner' of those Ordinary Shares.
5. Beneficial owners of Ordinary Shares as at 14:00 (British Summer Time) on 4 May 2021 have the right to direct their broker or other agent on how to vote the Ordinary Shares in their account and, subject as set out on in the Chairman's letter on page 1 on the holding of a closed meeting, are also invited to attend the Annual General Meeting. However, as beneficial owners are not Shareholders of record of the relevant Ordinary Shares, they may not vote their Ordinary Shares at the Annual General Meeting unless they request and obtain a legal proxy from their broker or agent.
6. Any Shareholder of record attending the Annual General Meeting has the right to ask questions. The Company must cause to be answered any questions put by a Shareholder of record attending the meeting relating to the business being dealt with at the Annual General Meeting unless to do so would interfere unduly with the business of the meeting, be undesirable in the interests of the Company or the good order of the meeting, involve the disclosure of confidential information or if the information has already been given on the Company's website. Please note that such attendance may not be permissible if the meeting is held as a closed meeting. In this case, questions may be posed using the contact link set out in the Chairman's letter on page 1.
7. In accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, and in accordance with the Articles, a Shareholder of record who is entitled to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting is entitled to appoint another person as his or her proxy to exercise all or any of his or her rights to attend and to speak and vote at the Annual General Meeting and to appoint more than one proxy in relation to the Annual General Meeting (provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to different Ordinary Shares). Such proxies need not be Shareholders of record, but must attend the Annual General Meeting and vote as the Shareholder of record instructs. Further details regarding the process to appoint a proxy, voting and the deadlines therefor are set out in the 'Voting Process and Revocation of Proxies' section below.
8. Pursuant to section 527 of the Companies Act 2006, shareholders meeting the threshold requirements set out in that section have the right to require the Company to publish on a website a statement setting out any matter relating to:
(a) the audit of the Company's accounts (including the auditor's report and the conduct of the audit) that are to be laid before the AGM; or
(b) any circumstance connected with an auditor of the Company ceasing to hold office since the previous meeting at which annual accounts and reports were laid in accordance with section 437 of the Companies Act 2006.

7

The Company may not require the shareholders requesting any such website publication to pay its expenses in complying with sections 527 or 528 of the Companies Act 2006. Where the Company is required to place a statement on a website under section 527 of the Companies Act 2006, it must forward the statement to the Company's auditor no later than the time when it makes the statement available on the website. The business which may be dealt with at the AGM includes any statement that the Company has been required under section 527 of the Companies Act 2006 to publish on a website.

9. The results of the polls taken on the resolutions at the Annual General Meeting and any other information required by the Companies Act will be made available on the Company's website as soon as reasonably practicable following the AGM and for a period of two years thereafter.
10. A copy of this Annual General Meeting notice can be found at the Company's website, www.ferroglobe.com.
