The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════   Invitation to the 11th Ordinary Annual General Meeting of AMAG Austria Metall AG (“Company“) (FN 310593 f; ISIN: AT00000AMAG3) to be held on Wednesday, April 20, 2022, at 11:00 a.m. (CEST) at the Company’s registered office at 5282 Braunau am Inn – Ranshofen, Lamprechtshausener Strasse 61.   I. HOLDING A VIRTUAL ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING For the protection of shareholders and other participants, the Management Board has decided to hold the 11th Annual General Meeting of AMAG Austria Metall AG on April 20, 2022, as a “virtual meeting“ in the meaning of the Directive for the Implementation of the Austrian Company Law COVID-19 Act (COVID-19-GesV [Federal Law Gazette II No. 140/2020]). This means that shareholders cannot attend in person the Annual General Meeting (AGM) of AMAG Austria Metall AG to be held on April 20, 2022. The AGM will be held in the physical presence of the Chairman of the Supervisory Board, the Chairman of the Management Board and other members of the Management Board, the certifying notary public, the representative of the Company’s auditor, the Company’s advisor under stock corporation law, and the four special proxies appointed by the Company, at 5282 Braunau am Inn – Ranshofen, Lamprechtshausener Strasse 61. In the Management Board’s opinion, the holding of the virtual AGM takes the best possible account of the interests of the Company and its shareholders. Holding the AGM as a virtual meeting in accordance with COVID-19-GesV leads to modifications in the course of the AGM and in the exercising of shareholders‘ rights. These special provisions are explained in more detail in the present invitation. In particular, you will find detailed information on the organisational and technical requirements for participation in the virtual meeting. We expressly point out that unfortunately it will not be possible for shareholders to attend the AGM in person at the venue on April 20, 2022.   II.

A proposed resolution as well as a justification must be included with each agenda item for which an application is submitted. The applicants must have been the owners of their shares for at least three months before the application is submitted. The shareholder demand must be submitted to the Company at the latest on the 21st day before the AGM, and consequently at the latest by March 30, 2022. 2. Proposals by shareholders for resolutions relating to the agenda pursuant to Section 110 AktG Furthermore, pursuant to Section 110 AktG, shareholders whose shareholdings together reach 1 % of the share capital can submit in writing proposals concerning a resolution in relation to any agenda item (Section 13 (2) AktG), and request that such proposals together with the names of the respective shareholders, the justification that is to be attached, and any opinion of the Management Board or of the Supervisory Board, be made available on the Company’s website. The shareholder request must be submitted to the Company at the latest on the seventh working day before the AGM, consequently at the latest by April 8, 2022. If candidates are proposed for election to the Supervisory Board, the statement by the proposed individual will replace the justification pursuant to Section 87 (2) AktG.

Shareholders‘ right to information pursuant to Section 118 AktG Pursuant to Section 118 AktG, each shareholder is entitled to demand that information be provided at the AGM about the Company’s affairs, to the extent required for an objective assessment of an agenda item. Such right to information also extends to the Company’s legal and business relationships to an affiliated company, the Group’s position, as well as the companies included in the consolidated financial statements. Information can be refused if prudent commercial judgement suggests that disclosing such information might incur a significant disadvantage for the Company, or one of its associated companies, or make it liable to prosecution. Information can also be refused if it has been made permanently available on the Company’s website in the form of questions and answers for at least seven days before the start of the AGM. Shareholders are requested to submit their questions in text form in advance of the AGM by email to fragen.amag@hauptversammlung.at, in good time for them to reach the Company by April 15, 2022 at the latest. You thereby enable the Management Board to prepare as accurately as possible and to answer the questions you ask as rapidly as possible. It is expressly pointed out that the right to information pursuant to Section 118 AktG in the form specified below (see section VIII) can also be exercised by the shareholders during the virtual AGM pursuant to Section 3 (1) COVID-19-GesV. 4. Motions by shareholders at the AGM pursuant to Section 119 AktG Each shareholder is entitled at the AGM to submit via an authorised proxy in relation to each item on the agenda (pursuant to section VII) motions that do not require prior publication. If several motions have been proposed for one agenda item, the Chair of the AGM determines the order of voting. However, nominations for the election of Supervisory Board members must be received by the Company at the latest on the seventh working day before the AGM (see also above in item V. 2). 5. Proof of shareholder status and transmissions to the Company The rights of shareholders in connection with the ownership of their shares during a certain period can be exercised only if the evidence of share ownership is rendered in the respective relevant period; a custody account confirmation pursuant to Section 10a AktG is satisfactory for this purpose.

Christoph Gabriel, BSc P.O. Box 3 5282 Ranshofen By fax: +43 (0) 1 8900 500 91 By Swift: GIBAATWGGMS – message type MT598 or MT599; ISIN AT00000AMAG3 must be specified in the text For organisational reasons, it is not possible to transfer power of attorney in person at the meeting venue. Persons other than the special proxies can only be authorised to exercise other rights not reserved for the special proxies, in particular the right to information and to speak, and cannot physically participate in the AGM. If the special proxy is to be authorised by this other person, an effective chain of authority (sub-proxy) must be ensured. The above regulations for issuing powers of attorney are valid analogously for the revocation of a power of attorney. If the power of attorney is revoked after April 15, 2022, 16:00 hours (CEST), we recommend that the revocation be sent by email to the proxy concerned, or by fax to the number listed above, as otherwise timely receipt cannot be ensured.   Instructions for the special proxies The special proxies will exercise the right to vote, the right to propose motions and the right to object only if related instructions have been issued to them. If no instructions have been issued for a resolution proposal, the proxy will abstain from voting. The proxy will also abstain from voting on motions for resolutions for which no clear instructions have been issued (such as both FOR and AGAINST regarding the same motion). Shareholders are requested to issue their instructions to the selected proxy in the section of the proxy form provided for this purpose, which will be available on the Company’s website (www.amag-al4u.com) in section “Investor Relations“ under “Annual General Meeting 2022“ from March 30, 2022 at the latest. We ask you to send the instructions by email to the above address of the proxy you have chosen. This method of transmission gives the proxy you have chosen direct access to the voting instructions. The instructions may be issued together with the power of attorney or at a later date. Instructions for exercising voting rights, the right to make motions and the right to object can be issued before or during the AGM up to the point in time determined by the Chair in each case. Until such time, shareholders have the opportunity to amend instructions already given or to issue new instructions. As the proxies cannot be reached by telephone during the AGM in view of the potential large number of simultaneous contact attempts, only the email communication medium to your proxy’s email address specified above should be used for communication. In each email, the person of the shareholder (name/company name, date of birth/company register number of the shareholder) must be specified, and the conclusion of the declaration must be made identifiable by reproducing the name signature or otherwise, e.g. by stating the name/company name (Section 13 (2) AktG). In order to enable the proxy to determine the identity of, and correspondence with, the custody account confirmation, we would ask you in this case to also include your custody account number in the email. Please note that it may be necessary to interrupt the virtual AGM for a short time in order to process in a secure manner the shareholders‘ instructions to the proxies received during the AGM.   VIII. SHAREHOLDERS’S RIGHT TO INFORMATION AND TO SPEAK Each shareholder is to be provided on request with information about the Company’s affairs at the AGM, insofar as this is necessary for the proper assessment of an agenda item. The right to information and the right to speak may be exercised exclusively by electronic mail by sending an email to the email address fragen.amag@hauptversammlung.at. Please use the question form, which will be available on the Company’s website (www.amag-al4u.com) in section“Investor Relations“ under “Annual General Meeting 2022“ from March 30, 2022 at the latest, and attach the completed and signed form to the email as an attachment. If you send your questions or verbal contributions without utilising the question form, the person of the shareholder (name/company name, date of birth/company register number of the shareholder) must be stated, and the conclusion of the declaration must be made identifiable by reproducing the name signature or otherwise, e.g. by stating the name/company name (Section 13 (2) AktG). In order to enable the Company to establish the identity of, and correspondence with, the custody account confirmation, we would ask you in this case to include your custody account number in the email. If the right to information and/or the right to speak is exercised by an authorised representative, proof of authorisation must also be provided in text form. Please note that the special proxies cannot be authorised to exercise the right to information and/or the right to speak. Shareholders are requested to submit their questions in text form in advance of the AGM by email to fragen.amag@hauptversammlung.at, in good time for them to reach the Company by April 15, 2022 at the latest. In this way, you enable the Management Board to prepare as accurately as possible, and to answer the questions you ask as rapidly as possible. During the AGM, shareholders also have the opportunity to submit their questions and contributions to the AGM electronically to the Company, exclusively in text form by email directly to the Company’s email address at fragen.amag@hauptversammlung.at. Please note that time limits may be set by the Chair during the AGM. Questions received by the Company are read out and answered at the AGM pursuant to Section 118 of the AktG.   IX. INFORMATION ON DATA PROTECTION AMAG Austria Metall AG processes its shareholders‘ personal data (in particular those data pursuant to Section 10a (2) AktG, i.e. name, address, date of birth, number of the custody account, number of shares held by the shareholder, number of the voting card and, if applicable, proxy’s name and address) on the basis of the applicable data protection provisions, in particular the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Austrian Data Protection Act (DSG), in order to enable shareholders to exercise their rights at the AGM. The processing of shareholders‘ personal data is mandatory for the participation of shareholders and their representatives in the virtual AGM pursuant to AktG and COVID-19-GesV. As a consequence, Article 6 (1) (c) GDPR forms the legal basis for processing. Another legal basis for data processing is Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR: protection of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party (the processing of personal data of shareholders may be necessary in particular in individual cases to assert, exercise or defend legal claims). AMAG Austria Metall AG is responsible for such processing. AMAG Austria Metall AG makes use of external service companies such as notaries, lawyers, special proxies and event service providers for the purpose of organising the virtual AGM. AMAG Austria Metall AG only provides such personal data to external service companies that are required for the execution of the service that has been ordered, and the external service companies process such data exclusively in accordance with the instructions of AMAG Austria Metall AG. Where legally necessary, AMAG Austria Metall AG has concluded a data protection agreement with such service providers. If shareholders participate in the virtual AGM, their special proxies, the members of the Management and Supervisory boards, the notary public and all other persons with a statutory right to participate can inspect the legally required list of participants (Section 117 AktG), and thereby also view the personal data specified therein (including name, place of residence, ownership interest). AMAG Austria Metall AG is also legally obligated to submit personal shareholder data (in particular the list of participants) as part of the notarial protocol to the company register (Section 120 AktG). Shareholders‘ data are anonymised or deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or processed, and unless other legal obligations require further archiving. Obligations to provide evidence and to retain records arise, in particular, from company, stock corporation and takeover legislation, from tax and levy legislation, as well as from anti-money-laundering regulations. If legal claims are brought by shareholders against AMAG Austria Metall AG, or by AMAG Austria Metall AG against shareholders, the archiving of personal data serves to clarify and enforce claims in individual cases. In connection with court proceedings before civil courts, this can lead to the archiving of data for the duration of the statute of limitations plus the duration of the court proceedings up to its legally binding termination. All shareholders have the right to information, correction, restriction, objection and deletion at any time in relation to the processing of personal data, as well as a right to data transmission in accordance with Chapter III GDPR. Shareholders may assert such rights in relation to AMAG Austria Metall AG free of charge via the following email address: datenschutz@amag.at. In addition, shareholders are entitled to appeal to the data protection authority pursuant to Article 77 GDPR. Further information on data protection can be found in the data protection declaration on the website of AMAG Austria Metall AG at www.amag-al4u.com/en/data-policy.   X.
