Thus, Salapo Beteiligungsverwaltungs GmbH has acquired an indirect shareholding of 3,549,543 shares in and, as a consequence thereof, voting rights relating to ANDRITZ AG (equivalent to a 3.413% shareholding) as well as the rights resulting from a loan on securities covering 2,400,000 shares in ANDRITZ AG (equivalent to a 2.308% shareholding). The voting rights of the shares transfered in connection with the loan on securities are due to the borrower and not to Certus Beteiligungs-GmbH. Salapo Beteiligungsverwaltungs GmbH is wholly owned by MANILE Privatstiftung. On August 14, 2014 ANDRITZ AG was furthermore informed from MANILE Privatstiftung, Graz and its wholly-owned subsidiary Salapo Beteiligungsverwaltungs GmbH, Vienna and from Salapo Beteiligungsverwaltungs GmbH's wholly-owned subsidiary Certus Beteiligungs-GmbH, Graz, about the following: MANILE Privatstiftung, via its wholly-owned subsidiary Salapo Beteiligungsverwaltungs GmbH and based on the contract on an investment in kind concluded between the latter and Custos Privatstiftung dated 14 August 2014, has acquired a 100% stake in Certus Beteiligungs-GmbH and thus an indirect shareholding of 3,549,543 shares in and voting rights relating to ANDRITZ AG (equivalent to a 3.413% shareholding), as well as acquiring the rights resulting from a loan on securities covering 2,400,000 shares in ANDRITZ AG (equivalent to a 2.308% shareholding). As the loan on securities will expire effective as of 18 August 2014 and the borrower will not avail itself of the cash settlement option, Certus Beteiligungs-GmbH has acquired a direct holding and MANILE Privatstiftung and Salapo Beteiligungsverwaltungs GmbH have acquired an indirect holding of voting rights in ANDRITZ AG of in total over 5% per August 18, 2014.
