As of the date of this Communication, the Offeror holds the Initial Holding, i.e., no. 5,053,486 SAES Shares, representing approximately 30.1% of the Issuer's share capital and approximately 46.2% of the voting rights exercisable at the Issuer's shareholders' meetings, given the increased voting rights provided for in SAES Getters' by-laws pursuant to Article 127-quinquies of the TUF.

1.2 Agreement between the Offeror's Shareholders

Today, an agreement (the "Offeror Shareholders' Agreement") was entered into between the full owners, bare owners and usufructuaries of the Offeror1 holding stakes representing (by way of full ownership and/or bare ownership) approximately 99.4% of the Offeror's share capital and thus with the sole exception of some shareholders who may eventually enter into the Offeror Shareholders' Agreement upon obtaining the relevant authorizations2.

In summary, the Offeror Shareholders' Agreement provides, in the event that the Issuer's shareholders' meeting approves the 2023 Dividend and the Offeror promotes the Offer:

  1. the commitment of the signatory shareholders who hold, directly or indirectly, SAES Shares, to tender to, and to cause the companies controlled by them to tender to the Offer
  1. Namely, Carola Rita della Porta, Alessandra della Porta, Luigi Lorenzo della Porta, Giulio della Porta, Livia della Porta, Massimo Lorenzo della Porta, Lorenzo della Porta, Ginevra della Porta, Maria Maddalena Canale, Andrea Canale, Orietta Canale, Luisa Dogliotti, Andrea Dogliotti, Marta Profumo, Giulia Dogliotti, Beatrice Dogliotti, Paolo Dogliotti, Giulio Canale, Annalisa Baldi, Ferdinando Corberi, Francesca Donatella Corberi, DIA S.A., Baroncelli Giulia S.p.A., Anna della Porta, Paolo della Porta, Sofia Magi, Irene Maria Vittoria Magi, Michele Lissoni, Elena Alessandra Lissoni.
  2. Namely, Giuseppe della Porta, Patrizia Strambio de Castillia and Judith Rice.

all the Shares held, which, according to the Offeror Shareholders' Agreement, as of today are no. 494,095 Shares, equal to approximately 2.9% of the Issuer's share capital and 2.3% of the voting rights exercisable at the Issuer's shareholders' meetings (the "Shares Subject to Tender Commitment");

  1. the commitment of the signatory shareholders not to carry out, directly or indirectly, any transactions relating to the Shares; and
  2. provided that upon completion of the Offer (including any fulfillment of the purchase obligation under Article 108 of the TUF and/or the purchase right under Article 111 of the TUF) the Offeror becomes the owner of all SAES Shares and the Delisting is achieved:
    1. the approval, as soon as possible, of a merger of the Offeror into the Issuer (the "Merger"); and
    2. the sale by Giulio Canale, Andrea Canale, Maria Maddalena Canale, Luisa Dogliotti, Andrea Dogliotti, Marta Profumo, Beatrice Dogliotti, Giulia Dogliotti, Paolo Dogliotti, Orietta Canale, Dia S.A, Annalisa Baldi, Ferdinando Corberi and Francesca Corberi (the "Selling Shareholders") to the company resulting from the Merger, as soon as it is technically feasible also in light of the requirements of Art. 2357, paragraph 1, of the Italian Civil Code, of the full ownership, bare ownership and/or usufruct of all the shares held by the Selling Shareholders in the company resulting from the Merger, at a consideration for the full ownership of each share equal to Euro 7.3942 per SAES post-Merger share (an amount that corresponds to a valuation of the Offeror calculated on the basis of a price per share of the Issuer of Euro 24.56 - an amount which is equal to the consideration for the purchase of treasury shares of the Proposed Partial Tender Offer on Treasury Shares). Therefore, the consideration recognized to the Selling Shareholders pursuant to the Offeror Shareholders' Agreement is lower than the Consideration recognized in the context of the Offer.

For more information, please refer to the essential information of the Offeror Shareholders' Agreement, which will be published within the terms and in the manner prescribed by Articles 122 of the TUF and 130 of the Issuers' Regulation.

  1. LEGAL REQUIREMENTS OF AND REASONS FOR THE OFFER
  1. Legal requirements of the Offer

The Offer consists of a total voluntary tender offer promoted pursuant to and for the purposes of Article 102, paragraph 1, of the TUF and the relevant implementing provisions contained in the Issuers' Regulation.

The Offer is subject to the fulfillment of the Conditions of the Offer (as defined below) set forth in Section 3.3 of this Communication.

The decision to promote the Offer was taken today by resolution of the board of directors of the Offeror.

2.2. Reasons for the Offer

5

Courtesy translation - for convenience only

The Offer is aimed at acquiring the entirety of the Shares Subject to the Offer and, consequently, at achieving the Delisting. Therefore, upon the occurrence of the relevant prerequisites, the Offeror will not restore a sufficient free float to ensure the regular trading of SAES Shares.

The Offeror, after the extraordinary transactions of SAES Getters that took place in 2023 and the significant downsizing of the business and in view of a generational transition, believes, also consistently with what the Issuer has communicated to the market, that an industrial reorganization of the Issuer is appropriate, an activity that is more easily pursued as an unlisted company, also in view of the timing and possible risks and complexities of such reorganization.

Indeed, the Delisting would enable the Issuer to pursue its purposes in a context and legal framework characterized by greater managerial and organizational flexibility, with faster decision- making and performance times and also benefiting from a possible reduction in operating costs.

Through the Offer, SAES Getters' shareholders are given the opportunity to monetize their investment at particularly advantageous terms, which are more favourable than those currently offered by the market and those provided by the Proposed Partial Tender Offer on Treasury Shares.

The Consideration is also higher than the consideration for exiting the Offeror provided in favour of some historical shareholders of the Offeror following the success of the Offer, as better described in Section 1.2 above.

The Offeror will also, upon completion of the Offer, resolve (and cause the Issuer to resolve) the Merger with the Issuer also in order to fully repay the Financing (as defined below) by using part of the Issuer's available resources.

For more information about the Delisting, please refer to Section 3.6 of this Communication.

3. ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS OF THE OFFER

3.1 Categories and quantity of the Shares Subject to the Offer

The Offer is promoted exclusively in Italy and concerns up to no. 11,731,762 SAES Shares, representing approximately 69.9% of SAES Getters' share capital and 53.8% of the voting rights exercisable at the Issuer's shareholders' meetings.

The Shares Subject to the Offer correspond to the entirety of the Shares, less the Initial Holding, consisting of no. 5,053,486 Shares held by the Offeror, representing approximately 30.1% of the Issuer's share capital and approximately 46.2% of the voting rights exercisable at the Issuer's shareholders' meetings, taking into account the increased voting rights provided for in SAES Getters' by-laws pursuant to Article 127-quinquies of the TUF.

Please note that the Shares Subject to Tender Commitment amount to no. 494,095 Shares, representing approximately 2.9% of the Issuer's share capital and approximately 4.2% of the Shares Subject to the Offer.

The sum of the Initial Holding and the Shares Subject to Tender Commitment amounts to no. 5,547,581 Shares, representing approximately 33.1% of the Issuer's share capital.

Following the publication of this Communication, as well as during the Acceptance Period (as defined below), as extended or reopened pursuant to applicable laws, the Offeror reserves the right to purchase Shares outside of the Offer, within the limits set forth by applicable laws. Such purchases will be communicated to the market in accordance with Article 41, paragraph 2(c) of the Issuers' Regulation. The number of Shares Subject to the Offer may be automatically reduced as a result of any purchases made by the Offeror and/or Persons Acting in Concert outside of the Offer.

The Offer is addressed, indiscriminately and on equal terms, to all holders of Shares Subject to the Offer.

The Shares tendered to the VTO must be freely transferable to the Offeror and free from constraints and encumbrances of every kind and nature, whether real, mandatory or personal.

3.2 Offered price per Share and total consideration of the Offer

3.2.1 Offered price per Share and its determination

The Offeror will pay, on the Payment Date (as defined below), the cash Consideration of Euro 26.3 (ex 2023 Dividend) for each of the Shares Subject to the Offer tendered to the VTO and purchased by the Offeror.

The Consideration is net of stamp duty, registration tax and Italian financial transaction tax, if due, and fees, commissions and expenses that will be borne by the Offeror. Conversely, any income tax, withholding tax, or substitute tax, if due, on the income potentially realised, will be borne by the shareholders tendering the Shares to the Offer. Please note that the ordinary shareholders' meeting of SAES Getters convened for April 23, 2024 for the approval of the financial statements as of December 31, 2023, is also called to approve, among other things, the 2023 Dividend, equal to Euro 12.51 per Share, which will be paid on May 2, 2024.

The Consideration, therefore, is net of the amount per Share of the 2023 Dividend, on the assumption that the 2023 Dividend is approved by the ordinary shareholders' meeting of SAES Getters on April 23, 2024, and is paid on May 2, 2024.

It should be noted that for the determination of the Consideration, no expert reports prepared by independent parties or aimed at assessing the fairness of the same were obtained and/or carried out.

3.2.2 Quotation price on the day before the Announcement Date and volume-weightedaverages in different time periods

The Consideration incorporates a premium of 7.5% over the Issuer's official share price, adjusted for the 2023 Dividend, recorded on April 15, 2024, i.e., the last trading day prior to today's date (the "Announcement Date"), as well as a premium of 12.5%, 15.9%, 19.1% and 25.9% over the volume- weighted averages of the official prices of the SAES Shares traded on the EXM market, adjusted for the 2023 Dividend, during the periods of 1 (one) month, 3 (three) months, 6 (six) months and 12 (twelve) months prior to the Announcement Date (excluded), respectively, as further illustrated in the table below:

The Consideration also incorporates a premium of approximately 7.1% over the consideration of the Proposed Partial Tender Offer on Treasury Shares (amounting to Euro 24.56 per SAES Share, ex 2023 Dividend) and 28.5% over the official price of the Issuer's shares recorded on the day prior to the announcement of the Proposed Partial Tender Offer on Treasury Shares submitted to the Issuer's shareholders' meeting.
