Frequently Asked Questions Capital Increase 2022

Why did the Meyer Burger share price fall significantly below the closing price of 31 October 2022 right at the start of trading on 1 November 2022?

As of 1 November 2022, Meyer Burger Technology shares were traded "ex subscription right" and the share price was adjusted for the value of the subscription right. For each Meyer Burger Technology share, one subscription right has been allocated, subject to certain restrictions. The shareholders therefore hold two positions in their securities account as of 1 November 2022:

  1. The Meyer Burger Technology share with the International Security Identification Number (ISIN) CH0108503795 and security identification number (WKN) A0YJZX.
  2. The same number of subscription rights with the ISIN CH1220912898 and WKN A3DXTP.

How many new shares will be issued by means of the capital increase?

Up to 934,671,850 new shares can be issued.

Is my shareholding going to be diluted by the capital increase?

To the extent that existing shareholders do not exercise their subscription rights, their shareholding will be diluted.

What is a subscription right?

A subscription right represents the right to voluntarily acquire a certain number of new shares in the course of a capital increase. Existing shareholders have received, subject to certain restrictions, one subscription right for each share held prior to the capital increase.

What is the relevant date for the allocation of subscription rights? When do shareholders need to hold Meyer Burger Technology shares in order to participate in the capital increase?

The custodian banks have added the subscription rights to the shareholders' securities accounts earliest in the evening of 31 October 2022. Further information can be obtained from your custodian bank.

How many new shares will I receive as a shareholder?

The subscription ratio is 20:7, i.e. for every 20 subscription rights (or old shares) you can subscribe for 7 new shares.

What options do Meyer Burger Technology shareholders have in connection with their subscription rights?

There are three possibilities:

1) You can fully participate in the capital increase.

For every 20 subscription rights, 7 new shares can be subscribed at CHF 0.267 each. For every 20 subscription rights, shareholders must therefore pay 7 * CHF 0.267 = CHF 1.869. The exercised subscription rights are booked out of the securities account and the payable subscription price is booked out of the allocated cash account against the entry of the new shares. If the number of subscription rights is not divisible by 20, the remainder of subscription rights resulting from the division by 20 will expire without value if they are not sold. Please contact your custodian bank regarding the settlement and a possible timing.

Following the capital increase, your securities account balance of Meyer Burger Technology shares will increase by the number of new shares subscribed, which will be booked into the securities account as outlined above. All Meyer Burger Technology shares are listed under ISIN CH0108503795.

2) You can partially participate in the capital increase.

You can sell a part of your subscription rights by instructing a sell order to your custodian bank. The custodian bank sells the subscription rights in accordance with your instructions and if applicable, taking into account a corresponding limit. The resulting proceeds will be transferred to your cash account. You can participate in the capital increase with the remaining subscription rights. You should ensure that the number of remaining subscription rights in your securities account is divisible by 20. For every 20 remaining subscription rights that are exercised, you will receive 7 new shares at CHF 0.267 each.

After the capital increase, the number of Meyer Burger shares in your account will increase by the number of new shares subscribed. The subscription rights will be exchanged together with the payable subscription price against entry of the new shares. All Meyer Burger Technology shares are listed under ISIN CH0108503795.

3) You can decide not to participate in the capital increase.

In principle, you also have the option of letting your subscription rights expire or giving your custodian bank an order to sell your subscription rights. The custodian bank sells the subscription rights in accordance with your instructions and if applicable, taking into account a corresponding limit. The resulting proceeds will be transferred to your cash account.

Following the capital increase, nothing has changed in your account holdings of Meyer Burger Technology shares. If you do not give your custodian bank any instructions, the

subscription rights will expire without value or compensation, unless the custodian bank sells the subscription rights independently. No compensation will be paid by Meyer Burger Technology.

Shareholders must decide for one of the three options mentioned above within the deadline communicated by their custodian bank and give instructions to the custodian bank in due time. Otherwise, risk is that the subscription rights will expire without compensation or might be sold by your depositary bank, perhaps even before the end of the official subscription period!

Where can I get more information?

Relevant information regarding the capital increase as well as the rights offering has been published on the website of Meyer Burger Technology. In connection with the rights offering, a prospectus has been published, which subject to certain restrictions, is available on the website of Meyer Burger Technology. You will also be informed by your custodian bank which steps are necessary to participate in the capital increase.

What do I have to do as a shareholder if I do not want to participate in the capital increase?

Subscription rights that you do not want to exercise can be sold on the stock exchange. The price of the subscription rights depends, among other things, on the development of the share price. Unless you have instructed your custodian bank otherwise, the custodian bank might sell unexercised subscription rights via the stock exchange on the last or penultimate day of subscription rights trading (i.e. pursuant to the outlined anticipated timetable, 4 November 2022 or 7 November 2022). The proceeds (less costs, if applicable) will be transferred to you.

When will the new shares be listed?

The new shares are expected to be listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange on 11 November 2022 and will be tradable from then onwards.

Does the dividend entitlement of the new shares differ from my current holdings of Meyer Burger Technology shares?

No, the new shares will have the same dividend entitlement from and including dividends declared for fiscal year 2022 as the existing Meyer Burger shares.
