Continuing impact of COVID-19 on the Annual General Meeting

We look forward to being able to welcome shareholders to the Annual General Meeting in person and electronically. At the time of publication of this Notice, the UK Government has lifted all restrictions on public gatherings and non-essential travel and it is therefore anticipated that the Annual General Meeting will go ahead as a physical meeting with the ability to also participate electronically. Should there be any changes to the UK Government guidelines that lead to changes in arrangements, these will be communicated to shareholders in advance of the Annual General Meeting through our website atwww.mondigroup.com.

Shareholders must not attend the Annual General Meeting in person if they are experiencing any COVID-19 related symptoms or are required to self-isolate in accordance with UK Government guidance. If shareholders are experiencing any COVID-19 related symptoms or are required to self-isolate, we encourage you to participate in the Annual General Meeting electronically through the online Lumi platform.

Final dividend

Shareholders are being asked to give their consent for the Company to pay a final dividend of 45.00 euro cents per ordinary share. If the recommended final dividend is approved, the dividend will be paid on 16 May 2022 to all ordinary shareholders on the Company's register of members on 8 April 2022.

Action to be taken

Your involvement in the Annual General Meeting is valued either in person (physically or electronically) or by proxy and is an important part of our dialogue with shareholders.

If you are entitled to vote but are unable to attend the Annual General Meeting (either in person or electronically), you can submit your voting instruction using the enclosed proxy form or alternatively electronically as explained in the notes to the Notice of Annual General Meeting on page 10. Please ensure that your proxy appointment reaches the registrar by no later than 10:30 (UK time) on Tuesday 3 May 2022. A proxy need not be a member of the Company but must attend the Annual General Meeting (either in person or electronically) to represent you. Submission of a proxy appointment will not prevent you from attending the Annual General Meeting (either in person or electronically).

Hybrid arrangements for the Annual General Meeting

We encourage shareholders to participate in the Annual General Meeting by attending in person or by participating electronically through the online Lumi platform, which can be accessed by following the instructions on pages 12 and 14 and 15. Shareholders attending the Annual General Meeting electronically will be able to view and hear the directors, ask questions (in writing or verbally) and vote in real time as if they were attending in person.

Where possible, we will aim to provide written responses to questions submitted by 28 April 2022 directly to shareholders before 10:30 (UK time) on Tuesday 3 May 2022, i.e. before the deadline for submission of a proxy appointment. Please email these questions toAGM.questions@mondigroup.com. Where appropriate, we will also publish answers to frequently asked questions on Mondi's website.

Recommendation

The Board believes that all the proposals to be considered at the Annual General Meeting are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole. The directors unanimously recommend that you vote in favour of all the proposed resolutions as they intend to do in respect of their own beneficial holdings.

Yours sincerely
