CO2- emission allowances acquired as a precaution
First Safety Net Second Safety Net
• Shortfall in CO2 allowances has been compensated for the most part at the subsidiaries of the Salzgitter Group
• Current market value of the CO2allowances acquired as a precaution exceeds the figure accounted for in the balance sheet by around € 300 million*
• Significant, gradual reduction of the CO2 emissions of Salzgitter AG

Arguments for
1. Biggest CO2 reduction potential per MWh of renewable energies used in a processual as well as industry and sector comparison
2. The Salzgitter AG has the leading concept. The required individual technical components are available in the market
3. Lower Saxony has the best preconditions to be the No. 1 transformation state in Germany:high level of electricity production from renewable sources and required hydrogen infrastructure
4. No relocation of production, no carbon leakage5. Economical, ecological and social concept6. Integration with local industrial sectors possible (among others automotive); important component of
a holistic CO2-free product lifecycle

Legal Note and other remarks
We make explicit reference to the fact that imponderables, including changes in the cost of raw materials, precious metal prices and exchange rates, along with global trade policy measures and their possible impact may still exert a considerable influence over the course of the financial year.
To the extent that this presentation contains statements oriented towards or related to the future, such statements are based on our current state of knowledge and the estimates based on such knowledge made by the management of Salzgitter AG. However, as is the case with any forecasts or prognosis, such statements are also subject to uncertainties and risks. Notwithstanding prevailing statutory provisions and capital market law in particular, we are not obligated to update this data. In particular, we shall not assume liability of any kind for knowledge and statements, as well as any acts resulting on the basis of such knowledge or statements that emanate directly or indirectly from the analysis of the data, content and correlations of this document. The information and data made available do not represent an encouragement or invitation to buy, sell or conduct any other type of trade in securities. Salzgitter AG shall neither assume liability for direct nor indirect damages, including lost profits, arising as a result of the utilization of the information or data contained in this document.
We anticipate a negative pre-tax result in a significant, with a high probability, triple-
digit million euro range for the financial year 2020. The scope of feasible scenarios is so
extensive that precise quantification would be pure speculation from a current
standpoint.
