**EXPLANATORY NOTE**

**Registration of Additional Securities**

(the "Company") approved the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan of AdvanSix Inc. and its Affiliates, as Amended and Restated (the "2016 Plan") to increase the number of shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"), available under the 2016 Plan by 1,400,000 shares and to implement certain additional amendments summarized in Proposal No. 4 in the Company's definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on April 29, 2025, as supplemented on May 16, 2025.

This Registration Statement hereby incorporates by reference the contents of the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Commission on September 30, 2016 (Registration No. 333-213914), which registered 3,350,000 shares of Common Stock under the 2016 Plan, the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Commission on June 23, 2020 (Registration No. 333-239394), which registered 2,937,209 shares of Common Stock under the 2016 Plan, and the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Commission on June 16, 2022 (Registration No. 333-265659), which registered 1,730,000 shares of Common Stock under the 2016 Plan (collectively, the "Original Registration Statements"), except to the extent supplemented, amended or superseded by the information set forth herein.

The following documents, which have been filed with the Commission by the Company, pursuant to the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as applicable, are hereby incorporated by reference in, and shall be deemed to be a part of, this Registration Statement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

(a) the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Commission on February 21, 2025;

(b) the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, filed with the Commission on May 2, 2025;

(d) the description of Common Stock, which is contained in Exhibit 4.1 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Commission on February 21, 2020.

All documents subsequently filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act subsequent to the date of this Registration Statement and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement which indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all such securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference herein and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to incorporate the information furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 or Item 7.01 of any Current Report on Form 8-K, unless otherwise expressly stated therein, including any exhibits to the extent furnished in connection with such items.

Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein (or in any other subsequently filed document which also is incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein) modifies or supersedes such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

------

**Item 5. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.** 

The opinion as to the legality of the securities registered hereunder is being given by Achilles B. Kintiroglou, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of the Company. As of June 10, 2025, Mr. Kintiroglou is the beneficial owner of 2,088 shares of Common Stock and options to purchase 55,607 shares of Common Stock. Mr. Kintiroglou is also eligible to participate in the 2016 Plan.

**Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.**

The General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL") authorizes corporations to limit or eliminate the personal liability of directors and officers to corporations and their stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duties as directors or officers, as applicable, except (i) in cases where the director or officer breached his or her duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law, (ii) in cases where the director willfully or negligently authorized the unlawful payment of a dividend or approved an unlawful stock redemption or repurchase or obtained an improper personal benefit or, (iii) with respect to officers, in any action by or in the right of the corporation. The Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the "Certificate of Incorporation") includes such exculpation provisions for its directors and officers.

The Company's Amended and Restated By-laws (the "By-laws") and Certificate of Incorporation also include provisions that indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted or required by the DGCL, the personal liability of directors, officers or employees against all expenses, liabilities and losses for actions taken as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or for serving at the Company's request as a director, officer, employee or agent at another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, as the case may be. The By-laws and Certificate of Incorporation also provide that the Company must indemnify and advance reasonable expenses to the Company's directors, officers and employees, subject to the Company's receipt of an undertaking from the indemnified party as may be required under the DGCL. The By-laws also expressly authorize the Company to purchase and maintain insurance to protect the Company, its directors, officers and employees against certain liabilities.

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions that are included in the By-laws and Certificate of Incorporation may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors or officers for breach of their fiduciary duties. These provisions may also have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against the Company's directors and officers, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit the Company and its stockholders. However, these provisions will not limit or eliminate the Company's rights, or those of any stockholder, to seek non-monetary relief such as injunction or rescission in the event of a breach of a director's or officer's duty of care. The provisions do not alter the liability of directors or officers under the federal securities laws. In addition, your investment may be adversely affected to the extent that, in a class action or direct suit, the Company pays the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions.

Re: <u>AdvanSix Inc. - Registration Statement on Form S-8</u>

This opinion is submitted in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") filed by AdvanSix Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), relating to the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), of 1,400,000 shares (the "Shares") of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share, issuable pursuant to the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan of AdvanSix Inc. and its Affiliates, as Amended and Restated (the "Plan").

I am the Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of the Company and, in that capacity, I, or lawyers employed by the Company acting under my supervision, have examined the written documents constituting the Plan and such other documents and corporate records as I, or they, have deemed necessary or appropriate in order to express the opinions hereinafter set forth.

In my examination of such documents and records, I have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals, the legal capacity of natural persons, the conformity with the originals of all documents submitted to me as copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents.

Based on the foregoing and in reliance thereon, I am of the opinion that the Shares when, and if, issued pursuant to the terms of the Plan will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

The foregoing opinion is limited to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. I express no opinion as to the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction. This opinion letter is provided for use solely in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Registration Statement and may not be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise relied upon for any other purpose without my express prior written consent.

I hereby consent to the use of this opinion letter as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and the reference to me under the heading "Interests of Named Experts and Counsel" in the Registration Statement.
