In line with Belgian transparency legislation (Law of May 2, 2007), UBS Group AG
recently sent to Solvay the following transparency notification indicating that
they crossed the threshold of 5%.
The notification, dated April 23, 2024, contains the following information:

  * Reason for the notification: acquisition or disposal of financial
    instruments that are treated as voting securities.
  * Notified by: A parent undertaking or a controlling person
  * Date on which the threshold is crossed: April 17, 2024
  * Threshold of direct voting rights crossed: 5% upwards
  * Denominator: 105,876,416
  * Additional information: The disclosure obligation arose due to the total
    indirect holdings of UBS Group AG in voting rights of Solvay SA, held

directly by controlled undertakings, going above 5% on 17th April 2024. This was caused by an increase in the Trading Book holdings of the aforementioned

    entities above 5% and therefore no longer being exempt from reporting.

    (Bahnhofstrasse 45, 8001 Zürich).
