(the "Existing Notes") in full at par, including any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on June 26, 2026 (the "Redemption"), (ii) for (a) financing any repurchases that the Company may, at its discretion, undertake of its ordinary shares as announced on June 15, 2026 or (b) to the extent such share repurchases are commercially unreasonable or otherwise not feasible or preferable, refinancing other existing indebtedness of Birkenstock and its subsidiaries and general corporate purposes and (iii) to pay fees and expenses associated with the foregoing transactions and certain amendments to the term and revolving facilities agreement of certain subsidiaries of Birkenstock announced on June 15, 2026 (the "Term and Revolving Facilities Agreement Amendments").

solicitation or sale would be unlawful. This announcement is not an offer of securities for sale in the United States. The Notes and the guarantees thereof will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold within the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act. In the United States, the Offering will be made only to "qualified institutional buyers" (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act ("Rule 144A")) in compliance with Rule 144A and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act (and, in a member state of the European Economic Area (the "EEA"), only to qualified investors within the meaning of Article 2(e) of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (as amended, the "Prospectus Regulation") and, in the United Kingdom, only to qualified investors as defined in paragraph 15 of Schedule 1 to the Public Offers and Admissions to Trading Regulations 2024 (the "POATRs")).

This announcement does not constitute a notice of redemption of the Existing Notes. Neither the content of Birkenstock's website nor any website accessible by hyperlinks on Birkenstock's website is incorporated in, or forms part of, this announcement.

It may be unlawful to distribute this announcement in certain jurisdictions. This announcement is not for distribution in Canada, Japan or Australia. The distribution of this announcement into certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law. Persons into whose possession this announcement comes should inform themselves about and observe any such restrictions. Any failure to comply with these restrictions may constitute a violation of the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. The information in this announcement does not constitute an offer of securities for sale in Canada, Japan or Australia.

The Notes are not intended to be offered, sold, distributed or otherwise made available to, and should not be offered, sold, distributed or otherwise made available to, any retail investor in the EEA. For these purposes, a "retail investor" means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II"); (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive 2016/97/EU (as amended, the "Insurance Distribution Directive"), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a "qualified investor" as defined in the Prospectus Regulation. Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering, selling or distributing the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering, selling or distributing the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation. This announcement has been prepared on the basis that any offer of the Notes in any Member State of the EEA will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Regulation from the requirement to produce a prospectus for offers of the Notes.

The Notes are not intended to be offered, sold, distributed or otherwise made available to, and should not be offered, sold, distributed or otherwise made available to, any retail investor in the United Kingdom (the "UK"). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is either one (or both) of the following: (i) not a

Consequently, no product summary as defined in the FCA Product Disclosure Sourcebook ("DISC") for offering, selling or distributing the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and, therefore, offering, selling or distributing the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under DISC and the Consumer Composite Investments (Designated Activities) Regulations 2024. This announcement has been prepared on the basis that any offer of the Notes in the UK will be made pursuant to an exception under the POATRs from the prohibition on offers to the public.
