   of the nominal capital and who have been holders of these shares for at
   least three months may request in text form that additional items be put
   on the agenda of the General Meeting and published. Any such request by

   statements, statement must be made in a document or in another manner
   suitable for permanent reproduction in writing, the person making the
   statement must be named and the conclusion of the statement must be made
   recognizable by reproduction of the signature or otherwise.

    

   Each motion for an item to be put on the agenda must be accompanied by a
   proposal for a resolution with a statement of reasons. The agenda item and
   the proposed resolution, but not its justification, must in any case also
   be written in German. Proof of shareholder capacity shall be furnished by
   submitting a deposit certificate in accordance with Section 10a of the
   Austrian Stock Corporation Act confirming that the applicant shareholder
   has been the continuous holder of the shares for at least three months
   prior to the application and that the deposit certificate must not be

   deposit certificates for shares, which only together convey the
   shareholding of 5%, must refer to the same time (day, time).

    

   With regard to the other requirements for the deposit certificate, see the
   information on the right to participate (Item IV of this Invitation).

    

   In case of an additional item requested to be put on the agenda, the
   supplemented agenda will be announced publicly in electronic form on the
   Company’s website at (3)www.lenzing.com under the menu items “Investors”
   and “Shareholders’ meeting” no later than on 24 September 2024, as well as
   in the same way as the original agenda (in particular in the electronic
   announcement and information platform of the Federal Government (EVI)) no
   later than on 26 September 2024.

    

    2. Proposals for resolutions by shareholders on the agenda in accordance
       with Section 110 of the Austrian Stock Corporation Act

    

   Shareholders whose individual or aggregate shareholding equals 1% or more
   of the nominal capital may submit proposed resolutions in text form with a
   statement of reasons within the meaning of Section 13 para 2 of the
   Austrian Stock Corporation Act concerning any item on the agenda, and
   request that these be made available on the Company website registered
   with the commercial register, together with the names of the respective
   shareholders, a statement of reasons to be submitted together with the
   proposal, and any comments of the Management Board or Supervisory Board.
   Requests of this kind will only be considered when received by the Company
   no later than on 1 October 2024 (12:00 a.m., CEST) by Telefax
   +43 (7672) 918 3599 or by mail to the address 4860 Lenzing, Werkstraße 2,
   Attn. Sébastien Knus or by e-mail to (4)Hauptversammlung2024@lenzing.com,
   whereby the request must be attached to the e-mail in text form within the
   meaning of Section 13 para 2 of the Austrian Stock Corporation Act, for
   example as a PDF. If text form within the meaning of Section 13 para 2 of
   the Austrian Stock Corporation Act is prescribed for statements, the
   statement must be made in a document or in another manner suitable for
   permanent reproduction in writing, the person making the statement must be
   named and the conclusion of the statement must be made recognizable by
   reproduction of the signature or otherwise. The proposed resolution, but
   not its justification, must in any case also be written in German.

    

   In case of a proposal for the election of a Supervisory Board member the
   statement of the proposed person pursuant to Section 87 para 2 of the
   Austrian Stock Corporation Act replaces the statement of reasons.

    

   For the purpose of providing proof of shareholder status it is sufficient
   if holders of deposited bearer shares submit a deposit certificate
   (Depotbestätigung) pursuant to Section 10a of the Austrian Stock
   Corporation Act. The deposit certificate used to prove current shareholder
   status must not be older than seven days when submitted to the Company.
   Several deposit certificates for shares, which only together convey the
   shareholding of 1%, must refer to the same time (day, time).

    

   With regard to the other requirements for the deposit certificate, see the
   information on the right to participate (Item IV of this Invitation).

    

    3. Statements in accordance with Section 110 para 2 sentence 2 in
       connection with Section 86 para 7 and 9 of Austrian Stock Corporation
       Act

    

   These statements are omitted as Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft is not subject
   to the scope of application of Section 86 para 7 of the Austrian Stock
   Corporation Act and does not have to take into account the shareholding
   requirement pursuant to Section 86 para 7 of the Austrian Stock
   Corporation Act.

    

    4. Shareholders' information rights in accordance with Section 118 of the
       Austrian Stock Corporation Act

    

   Any shareholder shall be provided with information on the Company’s
   affairs upon request at the General Meeting to the extent that such
   information is required for proper assessment of an item on the agenda.
   This obligation to provide information shall also extend to the legal and
   business relationships of the Company with affiliated companies, the state
   of affairs of the group, and the companies included in the consolidated
   financial statements.

    

   The Company may deny providing information to the extent that according to
   sound business judgment it might cause material damage to the Company or
   any affiliated company or if providing such information would constitute a
   punishable offense.

    

   The requirement for exercising the shareholders' right to information is
   the proof of right to attend (item IV. of the invitation).

    

   For the purpose of providing proof of shareholder status in order to
   exercise the above mentioned shareholders’ rights it is sufficient if
   holders of deposited bearer shares submit a deposit certificate
   (Depotbestätigung) within the meaning of Section 10a Austrian Stock
   Corporation Act. A deposit certificate used to prove current shareholder
   status must not be older than seven days when submitted to the Company.

    

    5. Possibility to appoint a proxy holder pursuant to Sections 113 et seq
       Austrian Stock Corporation Act (Section 106 no 8 of the Austrian Stock
       Corporation Act)

    

   Any shareholder entitled to attend the General Meeting shall be entitled
   to appoint a natural or legal person as proxy holder. The proxy holder may
   attend the General Meeting on behalf of the shareholder and will have the
   same rights as the shareholder represented. The Company itself or a member
   of the Management Board or Supervisory Board may exercise voting rights as
   a proxy holder only insofar as the shareholder has explicitly provided
   detailed voting instructions regarding the individual items of the agenda.

    

   The proxy must be granted to a specific person. A proxy in text form shall
   be sufficient in any case. If a shareholder has granted power of proxy to
   the depositary bank (Section 10a of the Austrian Stock Corporation Act) it
   shall be sufficient if in addition to submitting the deposit certificate
   the bank makes a statement that it has been granted power of proxy. It is
   also possible to grant power of proxy to multiple persons. Forms for
   granting power of proxy which may also be used to grant limited power of
   proxy are available on the Company website (5)https://www.lenzing.com
   under the menu items “Investors” and “Shareholders’ meeting”.

    

   The proxy must be received no later than on 9 October 2024, 1:00 p.m.
   (CEST) exclusively to the following addresses:

    

   i. E-mail address (6)anmeldung.lenzing@hauptversammlung.at;
   ii. by SWIFT GIBAATWGGMS (Message Type MT598 or MT599, stating
       ISIN AT 0000644505 in the text),

    

   whereby the proxy must be attached to the e-mail in text form, e.g. as
   PDF-file, and will be kept by the Company.

    

   On the day of the General Meeting the proxy may only be submitted upon
   registration for the General Meeting at the venue of the meeting. The
   aforementioned provisions on granting power of proxy apply analogously to
   the revocation of power of proxy. Any revocation shall be valid only when
   received at one of the aforementioned addresses respectively by the
   Company.

    

   As a special, free of charge service, shareholders who are not able or do
   not wish to attend the General Meeting in person may have their voting
   rights in the General Meeting exercised by Mr Michael Knap as
   representative of the “Interessenverband für Anleger” (IVA, Austrian
   Association of Investors), 1130 Vienna, Feldmühlgasse 22. As independent
   proxy holder Mr Michael Knap will exercise the voting rights exclusively
   in accordance with and bound by voting instructions given by the
   respective shareholders regarding the individual items of the agenda.
   Proxies without explicit voting instructions are invalid. Shareholders
   intending to grant power of proxy are not obliged to appoint
   Mr Michael Knap as their proxy holder. A special form for granting power
   of proxy or revocation of proxy to Mr Michael Knap may be downloaded at
   the Company website (7)www.lenzing.com under the menu items “Investors”
   and “Shareholders’ meeting”. The proxy granted to Mr Michael Knap must be
   received no later than on 9 October 2024, 1:00 p.m. (CEST) exclusively
   through one of the following addresses:

    

   i. E-mail address (8)anmeldung.lenzing@hauptversammlung.at;
   ii. per SWIFT GIBAATWGGMS (Message Type MT598 or MT599, stating
       ISIN AT 0000644505 in the text),

    

   whereby the proxy must be attached to the e-mail in text form, e.g. as
   PDF-file, and will be kept by the Company.

    

   Shareholders may also contact Mr Michael Knap directly by tel:
   +43 1 876 33 43-30, by fax: +43 (0) 1 876 33 43 39 or by
   e-mail:(9) michael.knap@iva.or.at.

    

   IV. Record date and conditions of attendance of the General Meeting

    

   Pursuant to Section 111 para 1 of the Austrian Stock Corporation Act, the
   right to attend the General Meeting and to exercise the shareholders’
   rights that are exercised during the General Meeting is determined by the
   shares held at the end of the tenth day before the date of the General
   Meeting (Record Date), therefore by the shares held on 30 September 2024,
   12:00 a.m. (CEST).

    

   Participation in the General Meeting is limited to persons who are
   shareholders on the Record Date and supply proof thereof to the Company.

    

   In case of deposited bearer shares proof of shareholding at the Record
   Date is provided by submitting a deposit certificate pursuant to
   Section 10a of the Austrian Stock Corporation Act. The deposit certificate
   shall be issued by the depositary bank based in a member state of the
   European Economic Area or in a full member state of the OECD. The deposit
   certificate must contain at least the information required according to
   Section 10a para 2 of the Austrian Stock Corporation Act. Deposit
   certificates will be accepted in German and English.

    

   Proof of shareholder status at the Record Date in the form of a deposit
   certificate must be received no later than on the third working day before
   the General Meeting, i.e. by 7 October 2024 exclusively through one of the
   following addresses:

   i. for submission of the deposit certificate in text form, for which the
      Articles of Association pursuant to Section 15 para 3 are sufficient

   by e-mail (10)anmeldung.lenzing@hauptversammlung.at

    (deposit certificates in PDF format please)

    

   ii. for submission of the deposit certificate in text form

    by SWIFT GIBAATWGGMS

    (Message Type MT598 or MT599

    stating ISIN AT0000644505 in the text)

    

   V. Information to shareholders regarding data processing

    

    1. Which personal data of shareholders is processed and for what
       purposes?

    

   Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft processes personal data of shareholders (in
   particular those pursuant to Section 10a para 2 Austrian
   Stock Corporation Act, i.e. name, address, date of birth, number of the
   securities deposit, number of shares of the shareholder, type of share if
   applicable, number of the voting card and, if applicable, name and date of
   birth of the independent proxy) on the basis of the applicable data
   protection regulations, 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 General Meeting.

    

   In this connection the shareholders’ personal data is processed for the
   following purposes:

     • Organization and holding of General Meetings, including verification
       of the right to attend/power of proxy and determination of the voting
       ratio,
     • Participation of shareholders in the General Meeting and exercise of
       shareholder rights,
     • Preparation of registration, power of proxy and attendance lists,
     • Preparation of the minutes of the General Meeting,
     • Fulfillment of compliance obligations, including recording, disclosure
       and reporting obligations.

    

   The processing of the shareholders' personal data is mandatory for the
   participation of shareholders and their representatives in the General
   Meeting in accordance with the Austrian Stock Corporation Act. The legal
   basis for the processing therefore is Art 6 para 1 lit c GDPR (compliance
   with a legal obligation). For the processing Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft is
   controller as defined in Art 4 no 7 GDPR.

    

    2. To whom is the shareholders' personal data transferred?

    

   Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft uses external service providers, such as
   notaries, lawyers, banks and IT service providers, for the purpose of
   organizing the General Meeting. These service providers receive only such
   personal data from Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft as is necessary for the
   performance of the commissioned service, and, where they are processors as
   defined in Art 4 no 8 GDPR, process the data solely on instructions of
   Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft. Where legally required, Lenzing
   Aktiengesellschaft has concluded a data protection agreement with these
   service providers.

    

   If a shareholder participates in the General Meeting, the members of the
   Management Board and Supervisory Board, the notary and any other person
   with a legal right to attend may view the list of participants stipulated
   by statute (Section 117 Austrian Stock Corporation Act) and thereby also
   have access to the personal data contained therein (inter alia name, place
   of residence, shareholding relationship). Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft also
   has the statutory obligation to submit the shareholders’ personal data (in
   particular the list of participants) to the commercial register at the
   competent commercial register court (Section 120
   Austrian Stock Corporation Act) as part of the notarial protocol.

    

   In addition, the shareholders’ personal data may also be transferred to
   the competent authorities or bodies if necessary.

    

    3. How long is the shareholders' personal data stored?

    

   Shareholders’ data will be anonymized or deleted as soon as it is no
   longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or processed,
   and no other legal obligations require further storage. Obligations to
   provide evidence and to retain records arise in particular from corporate,
   stock corporation and takeover law, from tax and duties law as well as
   from anti money laundering regulations. If legal claims are made by
   shareholders against Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft or vice versa by Lenzing
   Aktiengesellschaft against shareholders, the storage of personal data
   serves to clarify and enforce claims in individual cases. In connection
   with proceedings before civil courts, this can lead to storage of data for
   the duration of the statute of limitations plus the duration of the court
   proceedings up to its legally binding conclusion.

    

    4. What rights do shareholders have with regard to their personal data?

    

   Every shareholder has a right to access, rectification, restriction,
   objection and deletion at any time with regard to the processing of
   personal data as well as a right to data portability in accordance with
   Chapter III GDPR. Shareholders can assert these rights against Lenzing
   Aktiengesellschaft free of charge by contacting the e-mail address
   (11)privacy@lenzing.com or by using the following contact details:

   Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft

   AT-4860 Lenzing, Werkstraße 2

   Fax: +43 (0) 7672 918-4005

    

   In addition, shareholders have the right to lodge a complaint with the
   data protection supervisory authority pursuant to Art 77 GDPR.

    5. Further information

    

   Further information on data protection can be found in the data protection
   declaration on the website of Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft
   (12)www.lenzing.com.

    

   VI. Total number of shares and voting rights at the date of convocation

    

   At the date of convocation of the General Meeting, the nominal capital of
   the Company amounts to EUR 40,107,738.37 and is divided into 38,618,180
   no-par value bearer shares. Each no-par value share grants one vote at the
   General Meeting.

    

   The Company does not hold any treasury shares at the time of convening the
   General Meeting.

    

   There are no multiple classes of shares.
