Through its indirect subsidiaries B&C KB Holding GmbH (formerly B&C LAG Holding GmbH) and B&C Ares Holding GmbH, B&C Privatstiftung holds a total of 20,177,020 voting rights (corresponding to around 52.25% of the share capital and voting rights) in Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft.
In the course of an intra-group demerger for absorption, the shareholding in B&C Delta Zweite Holding GmbH is to be spun off to B&C Epsilon Zweite Holding GmbH. This demerger is subject to the condition precedent that B&C Delta Zweite Holding GmbH acquires 9,654,545 voting rights (corresponding to 25% of the share capital and voting rights) in Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft from B&C KB Holding GmbH in the course of a further demerger.
With the implementation of this demerger, the chain of controlled undertakings will change with regard to these 9,654,545 voting rights (corresponding to 25% of the share capital and voting rights) in Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft. The voting rights indirectly affected by this demerger are hereby disclosed as a financial instrument pursuant to section 131 BörseG 2018.
