Pursuant to Section 43 of the German Securities Trading Act (WpHG), the Notifying Parties disclose the following: Objectives of the acquisition of voting rights (Sec. 43 (1) Sentence 3 WpHG)
The acquisition of the voting rights in JOST Werke SE by the Notifying Parties took place (indirectly) through the Vierunddreißigste PMB Management GmbH. The investment is regarded as a long-term strategic investment. Depending on the stock market price and the general economic situation of JOST Werke SE, the Notifying Parties intend to acquire further voting rights in the Company within the next twelve months, if applicable. The Notifying Parties aim to have at least one candidate supported by the Peter Möhrle Group elected to the Supervisory Board of JOST Werke SE. The Notifying Parties do not currently seek to exert any further influence on the composition of the administrative, executive and supervisory bodies. In principle, the Notifying Parties currently do not seek any material change in the capital structure of the JOST Werke SE. With regard to the dividend policy, however, the Notifying Parties support the approach of primarily maintaining and further improving the financial flexibility and strengthening of the financial power of JOST Werke SE to finance further growth, and to pursue the goal of the highest possible distributions only as a subordinate priority.
Origin of the funds used to purchase the voting rights (Sec. 43 (1) Sentence 4 WpHG)

The Notifying Parties (with the exception of the Vierunddreißigste PMB Management GmbH) did not use any own or third-party funds to indirectly acquire the voting rights. The Vierunddreißigste PMB Management GmbH exclusively used funds of the Peter Möhrle Group to acquire the voting rights.
