Wienerberger AG resolves on the use of treasury shares
The Managing Board of Wienerberger AG (the "Company") has decided to execute a use of treasury shares (own shares)
based on the authorization for the use (resale authorization) of treasury shares granted by resolution of the 155^th
Annual General Meeting on 7 May 2024 (the "Use Authorization").
Wienerberger published a report on the use of treasury shares excluding subscription rights on 23 May 2024 via a
pan-European electronic distribution system and on its website under https://www.wienerberger.com/en/investors/
download-center.html and on 23 May 2024 on the Electronic Announcement and Information Platform of the Federal
Government (EVI) on the basis of the Use Authorization (the "Report") for the purposes of an employee share
participation program for employees of the Wienerberger group in the United States, in particular for employees of
General Shale, Inc. (the "ESPP USA"). Under the ESPP USA, US employees had the opportunity to acquire shares listed on
the Vienna Stock Exchange under ISIN AT0000831706. For every two shares purchased ("Investment Shares"), the
participating employee receives one Wienerberger AG share without any further consideration ("Matching Share") in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the ESPP USA ("Plan Conditions") (2+1 model). ESPP USA is administered by
Global Shares Inc. as plan administrator ("Plan Administrator"). The Plan Administrator will hold the shares in trust
on behalf of the US employees for the duration of the program. For this reason, the treasury shares will be transferred
directly to the Plan Administrator to be held in trust on behalf of the US employees under the ESPP USA.
Under the ESPP USA, US employees were given the opportunity to participate in the ESPP USA within an offer period. At
the end of the offer period, the total investment of all employees participating in the ESPP USA amounted to the
equivalent of approximately EUR 110,000. For this total investment amount, Wienerberger AG sells and transfers treasury
shares as Investment Shares to the Plan Administrator as trustee for the participating employees. In addition,
Wienerberger AG sells and transfers one Matching Share for every two Investment Shares without any further
consideration by the participating employees to the Plan Administrator as trustee for the participating employees. The
costs for the Matching Shares are borne by companies of the Wienerberger Group in the US, in particular General Shale
Brick, Inc. and a reimbursement of costs is paid to Wienerberger AG. In total, Wienerberger AG will therefore transfer
treasury shares for the ESPP USA at a price of approximately EUR 110,000 (taking into account the fact that only whole
shares are delivered) as Investment Shares and additionally one Matching Share for every two Investment Shares, whereby
Wienerberger will receive a cost compensation of approximately EUR 55,000 (taking into account the fact that only whole
shares are delivered) for the Matching Shares.
The transfer of the treasury shares to the Plan Administrator is expected to take place on 13 June 2024 ("Closing"). On
the day of Closing, both the Investment Shares and the Matching Shares will be transferred to the Plan Administrator as
trustee for the US employees. The final amount of treasury shares required for the ESPP USA will be determined on the
day of Closing based on the closing price of the Wienerberger share on the Vienna Stock Exchange on the last trading
day immediately prior to Closing, whereby treasury shares will be sold as Investment Shares at a price of approximately
EUR 110,000 and for every two Investment Shares, one Matching Share will be sold to the participating employees with a
reimbursement of costs in the amount of approximately EUR 55,000. Based on the closing price of the Wienerberger share
on the Vienna Stock Exchange on 21 May 2024, this would result in approximately 4,700 treasury shares to be used. This
would correspond to around 0.004 % of the company's total shares.
The Management Board of Wienerberger AG resolved on 7 June 2024 to use the treasury shares accordingly; the Supervisory
Board of the Company approved this on 7 June 2024.
Details on the use of treasury shares will be published on the Company's website at https://www.wienerberger.com/de/
investoren/aktie.html (German language) and https://www.wienerberger.com/en/investors/share.html (English language).

approximately EUR 55,000. For illustration purposes - on the basis of the closing price of the Company's shares on 21
May 2024, approximately 4,700 shares, corresponding to around 0.004 % of the Company's total shares, would be used.
