4. REJECTION OF PLANNED CHANGE OF CONTROL TO SAINT-GOBAIN

14

KEY EVENTS OF THE LAST 5 WEEKS Dec 5: In the evening board and management were informed of transaction by

family and Saint-Gobain

limited discussions between Sika and Saint-Gobain during weekend, with Saint-Gobain rejecting constructive suggestions to mitigate flaws of current structure

Dec 8: Publication of independent position of Sika board and management on transaction

Planned transaction is not in the best interest of Sika or its public shareholders

Board and management do not support transaction in its planned form

Dec 10: Schenker-Winkler Holding requested Extraordinary General Meeting to replace 3 independent board members , including Chairman, with two nominees to gain majority in board

Dec 10: Standard & Poor’s placed Sika on negative credit watch and will lower the rating by two notches to 'BBB', equal to the rating of Saint-Gobain if the transaction would be closed

15

KEY EVENTS OF THE LAST 5 WEEKS (CONT.)

Dec 17: Sika presented alternative proposals to reverse value loss

Dec 23: Ethos and 12 pension funds and investors representing 1.7% of the capital, requested to include an item on the agenda of the Extraordinary General Meeting to delete the opting out clause

Dec 28: Chris Tanner, who was one of the two board member nominees proposed by Schenker-Winkler Holding, withdrew his candidacy stating: “The assurance I required with regard to an effective independence was not granted.”

Jan 5: Schenker-Winkler Holding filed a petition at the cantonal court in Zug to enforce the Extraordinary General Meeting

Jan 14: The international investors Cascade Investment L.L.C., Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Trust, Fidelity Worldwide Investment and Threadneedle Investments together holding 8.61% of Sika's share capital (4.62% of the voting rights) expressed their active support for Sika's board of directors and management.

Jan 14: Ethos launched support group for shareholder proposal to delete opting out provision

16

WHY SIKA CANNOT SUPPORT PROPOSED TRANSACTION

Acquisition of control through majority of votes

Full consolidation of Sika Increasing (reported) growth, margins

and reduced capital intensity, as well as improved geographic footprint

But only 16% of economic exposure

Intention to keep Sika listed / no offer to public shareholders

Claimed benefits based on unsubstantiated business plan to year 2019 as presented by Saint-Gobain(1) (no interaction with Sika, no due diligence) Sika 2019 EBIT of CHF 840-890m Plus EUR 180m additional synergies in

2019

17

Public shareholders (84% of capital) deprived of adequate compensation for change of control / fundamental change in nature of investment

Inherent conflicting interests on all levels: shareholders, board, management and operations

Significant implied complexities likely to substantially slow down Sika’s organization and impair Sika's successful growth model

Significant limitations to materialize synergy potential especially stemming from combination of directly competing businesses

Note: (1) Saint-Gobain capital markets presentation Dec 8, 2014

Transaction structure as planned by Saint-Gobain Key implications & concerns

Effective and efficient integration of businesses not possible under planned structure Significant risk of negative effects outweighing potential upsides

SIKA’S GROWTH MODEL DELIVERS

DEAL IMPAIRS SUCCESS OF SIKA

19

Significant downside risk for Sika and its public shareholders

Increased complexity: numerous “at arm’s length” contracts envisaged in all countries with dual presence

Each transaction needs to fully comply with transfer pricing rules

Significant implementation and ongoing monitoring effort and cost

Protection of business secrets, incl. formulations

Various conflicts of interest on all levels

Direct competitors in mortars

Allocation of synergies

Balance sheet management

Successful practice of keeping majority of board members independent set to change

Distraction from focus on profitable growth

Absorption of management resources

Allocation of synergies and dis-synergies

Risk of paralyzing organization

OVERLAPS AND TOUCHPOINTS SIKA AND SAINT-GOBAIN

20

Saint-Gobain mortar business (Weber) is a direct competitor to Sika

Sika’s mortar business is operationally fully integrated in the organization and core element of growth strategy

Core to supply chain management and marketing approach

14 new plants recently

4 acquisitions recently

Certain non-mortar revenue synergies possible in complementary businesses, but EBIT-impact difficult to quantify outside-in

SAINT GOBAIN PORTFOLIO

Total: €41.1bn (2014E)

OVERSTATED SYNERGY POTENTIAL

Integration of Weber into Sika

Our preliminary views on run rate synergy potential (impact on EBIT in EURm)

Currently planned structure

We believe that synergies from at arm’s length agreements will be offset by dis-synergies in similar magnitude

Improved structure will deliver approx. EUR150m of synergy potential

POTENTIAL ALTERNATIVES TO REVERSE VALUE LOSS

22

Responsibility of both Sika and Satin-Gobain to consider and (jointly) develop alternative solutions to reverse significant value destruction

Note: (1) c. 14% based on unaffected market capitalisation of public shareholders as of Dec 5 divided

INTEGRATION WITH SAINT-GOBAIN MORTARS UNDER

SIKA UMBRELLA

Leading independent Construction Chemicals & Adhesives player with strong anchor shareholder and proven management

Removes key areas of market conflicts, but key implementation risks remain Appropriate governance to safeguard public shareholders’ interests critical Value creation potential from synergies and rerating

FULL BUSINESS COMBINATION

Requires appropriate value recognition of Sika’s growth and profitability, potentially offering Sika public shareholders optionality to monetise or remain invested

Creates leading Construction Chemicals player under Saint-Gobain umbrella Risk of value de-rating from absorption of high-multiple Sika into lower-multiple Saint-

Gobain

OTHER SOLUTIONS

Sika board and management receptive to other proposals

ENVISAGED TRANSACTION ABANDONED

Possible value recovery

SIKA OPEN FOR CONSTRUCTIVE DIALOGUE

…that addresses obvious flaws of planned transaction

…that allows Sika to continue to flourish and that supports integrity of our business approach

…that allows optimal materialization of synergy potential

…that allows Sika’s public shareholders to (at least partially) recover experienced substantial value losses

…that converts currently planned ‘lose-lose’ transaction into a ‘win-win’ situation for both sides

Sika board and management act in the best interest of the company and its shareholders
