CONTENTS

As previously disclosed, on November 6, 2024, Lilium N.V. (the “Company” or “Lilium”) filed a motion for opening of regular insolvency proceedings with the competent insolvency court in Germany. Following the filing, the court opened preliminary insolvency proceedings. As previously reported on the Form 6-K filed on December 26, 2024, Lilium expected the court of Weilheim in Germany to open regular insolvency proceedings pertaining to the Company on December 30, 2024. On December 30, 2024, the court opened such regular insolvency proceedings. The Company does not expect any distributions to holders of its Class A ordinary shares in connection with the winding up process. Furthermore, all existing employment contracts with the Company have been terminated in accordance with German law. Additional information and background on the Company’s application for the proceedings may be found in Lilium N.V.’s Form 6-Ks filed with the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 4, 2024, November 6, 2024, November 12, 2024, December 5, 2024, December 16, 2024, and December 26, 2024.

In addition, on December 31, 2024, Margaret M.

On January 4, 2025, Gabrielle Toledano resigned as a member of the Board, as chair of the Compensation Committee and as a member of the Audit Committee, with immediate effect. Ms. Smyth’s and Ms. Toledano’s resignations were not the result of any disagreement on any matters related to the operations of Lilium.

As previously reported on the Form 6-K filed on December 26, 2024, Lilium GmbH and Lilium eAircraft GmbH, the principal operating wholly-owned German subsidiaries (the “Subsidiaries”) of Lilium, signed an asset purchase agreement dated December 23, 2024 (the “Agreement”), with MUC Mobile Uplift Corporation GmbH (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Purchaser intends to acquire the operating assets of the Subsidiaries. The main execution of the Agreement with the transfer of possession of the operating assets and the transfer of the operations of the Subsidiaries occurred on January 7, 2025. The transfer of ownership of the assets of the Subsidiaries is expected to occur on January 20, 2025. Proceeds received from the sale will be utilized according to German Insolvency Law.
