Changes to entries on the register of members after the Record Date shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend or vote at the Annual General Meeting. Except as discussed below under “2. Non-registered shareholders,” instructions in this Notice relating to appointment of proxies and voting by proxy apply only to registered holders.

Shareholders of record at 11:00 p.m. Central European Time / 9:00 p.m. Greenwich Mean Time on the Record Date are entitled to receive notice of the Annual General Meeting. This document (which includes the notice of the Annual General Meeting), the Forms of Proxy, related instructions (together, the “Meeting Materials”) are being mailed to shareholders of record as at the Record Date and will also be made available on Company’s website at https://www.investors.atotech.com, and will be filed with, or furnished to, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). If you have sold or otherwise transferred part of your holding of or interest in Company’s shares, please retain the Meeting Materials and consult the stockbroker, bank or other agent (if any) through which the sale was effected.

Non-registered shareholders: If you beneficially own our shares in “street name” through Cede & Co., as nominee for the Depositary Trust Company, as at the Record Date, you will receive a separate voting instruction card from your broker or nominee through whom you own your shares. You must follow any procedures or directions prescribed by your broker or nominee for the purposes of submitting your voting instructions; otherwise, your voting instructions may not be accepted by your broker or nominee. Your broker or nominee will submit your voting instructions according to your completed voting instruction card, and Cede & Co., the registered holder of your shares, or its appointed proxy, will vote your shares according to such voting instructions. Your voting instructions must be received by your broker or nominee, so as to subsequently reach the Company’s proxy tabulator, Broadridge Financial Services, Inc., at 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717, or submitted by internet or telephone, by no later than 5:59 a.m. Central European Time / 3:59 a.m. Greenwich Mean Time on August 1, 2022.

Shareholders can access the Virtual Meeting Platform using a web browser, on a PC or smartphone device. The web browser must be compatible with the latest browser versions of Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Safari. To remotely attend, submit written questions and/or vote using this method, please go to http://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/ATC2022.

How to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting remotely if you are a shareholder:

Access to the Annual General Meeting via the Virtual Meeting Platform will be available from 3:45 p.m. Central European Time / 1:45 p.m. Greenwich Mean Time on August 1, 2022, although the

voting functionality will not be enabled until the chairman of the Annual General Meeting (the “Chairman”) declares the poll open. Shareholders will be permitted to submit written questions (via the Virtual Meeting Platform) to the directors during the course of the Annual General Meeting. The Chairman will ensure that matters relating to the formal business of the Annual General Meeting are addressed at the Annual General Meeting.

During the Annual General Meeting, shareholders must ensure they are connected to the internet at all times in order to submit written questions and vote when the Chairman commences polling. Therefore, it is the responsibility of shareholders to ensure connectivity for the duration of the Annual General Meeting via their wireless or other internet connection. The instructions for accessing the Virtual Meeting Platform contain further information on remotely accessing and participating in the Annual General Meeting via the Virtual Meeting Platform.

Appointment and instruction of proxies

Appointment of proxies: Shareholders are entitled to appoint a proxy to exercise all or any of their rights to attend and to speak and vote on their behalf at the Annual General Meeting. A shareholder may appoint more than one proxy in relation to the Annual General Meeting provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares held by that shareholder. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company.

Voting by proxy: A Form of Proxy which may be used to make such appointment and give proxy instructions accompanies this notice. To be valid, any Form of Proxy must be received by post at 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717, or submitted by internet or telephone, by no later than 5:59 a.m. Central European Time / 3:59 a.m. Greenwich Mean Time on August 1, 2022 (or, if the Annual General Meeting is adjourned by 48 hours or less, either in accordance with the above, by the chairman of the meeting or the secretary or any director at the original meeting, or at such address and by such time as the chairman of the meeting may direct, or, if the Annual General Meeting is adjourned by more than 48 hours, 24 hours (excluding any part of a day that is not a working day (within the meaning of Article 96(4B) of the Jersey Companies Law)) before the time fixed for the adjourned meeting). You can vote by internet by going to http://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/ATC2022.

Effect of returning executed proxy without instructions: If you are a registered holder and submit proxy voting instructions but do not direct how your shares should be voted on each item, the person(s) named as proxy or proxies (provided not the Chairman or another of our directors) will vote or abstain from voting at his or her discretion. If you appoint the Chairman or another director as your proxy on any resolution, he or she will vote in favor of the resolution. Your proxy will vote (or abstain from voting) as he or she thinks fit in relation to any other matter which is put before the Annual General Meeting.

Authorized signatories voting by proxy: In the case of a shareholder which is not a natural person, the Form of Proxy must be executed under its common seal or signed on its behalf by an agent or officer authorized for that purpose.

Powers of attorney for voting by proxy: Any power of attorney or any other authority under which the Form of Proxy is signed (or a duly certified copy of such power or authority) must be included with the Form of Proxy.

Joint shareholders: If more than one of the joint holders of a share tenders a vote on the same resolution, the vote of the senior who tenders a vote shall be accepted to the exclusion of the vote(s) of the other joint holders, seniority being determined by the order in which the names stand in the register in respect of the relevant share.

10.

Revocation of proxy vote: If two or more valid but differing proxy appointments are received in respect of the same share, the one which is last received (regardless of its date or of the date of its execution)

shall be treated as replacing and revoking the others as regards that share, and if the Company is unable to determine which was last received, none of them shall be treated as valid in respect of the applicable ordinary shares. Additionally, the return of a completed Form of Proxy will not prevent a shareholder attending the Annual General Meeting and voting in person or remotely via the Virtual Meeting Platform if he/she is entitled to and wishes to do so. If you attend the annual meeting you will have the right to revoke the proxy and vote your shares virtually at the meeting. If you hold your shares through an account with a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, please follow the instructions you receive from your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee to vote your shares.

11.

Voting standard: All resolutions will be proposed as ordinary resolutions. This means that, to pass, a simple majority of the votes cast must be in favor of each resolution contemplated by this Notice.

12.

Withheld votes: A vote withheld (also called an “abstention”) is not considered a “vote cast” and is therefore not a vote in law, which means that the vote will not be counted in the calculation of votes for or against the resolution. If no voting indication is given, your proxy will vote or abstain from voting at his or her discretion. Your proxy will vote (or abstain from voting) as he or she thinks fit in relation to any other matter which is put before the Annual General Meeting. However, the vote will count as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum.

13.

Broker non-votes: A “broker non-vote” occurs when a broker or nominee of record holding shares for a beneficial owner does not have discretionary voting power for that particular item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. Brokers that hold shares in “street name” for clients typically have authority to vote (and are considered entitled to vote for purposes of a quorum) on “routine” proposals even when they have not received instructions from beneficial owners. Absent specific instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares, however, brokers are not allowed to exercise their voting discretion with respect to any proposals that are considered non-routine. The only proposals that we believe may be considered routine are Proposals 1 and 5; however, we expect that they will not be treated as routine matters since our proxy statement is prepared in compliance with the Jersey Companies Law and regulations promulgated thereunder, rather than the rules applicable to domestic U.S. reporting companies. If you hold your shares in “street name” and do not provide your broker with specific instructions regarding how to vote on any non-routine proposal, your broker will not be permitted to vote your shares on the proposal, resulting in a “broker non-vote”. Therefore, it is important for a shareholder that holds shares through a broker or nominee to instruct its broker or nominee how to vote its shares, if the shareholder wants its shares to count for all proposals.

Corporate representatives

14.

Authorization: A shareholder which is not a natural person, by resolution of its board or other governing body, authorize any person or persons to act as its representative or representatives at the Annual General Meeting. A shareholder which is not a natural person shall be deemed to be present in person at the Annual General Meeting if one or more of its representatives is present at that meeting.

15.

Evidence of authority: The board or any director or the secretary may (but is not bound to) require evidence of the authority of any such representatives. Any authorization in writing purporting to be signed by an officer of, or other person duly authorized for the purpose by, any shareholder which is not a natural person shall be conclusive evidence of the authority of the representatives to act on behalf of such shareholder.

16.

Joint authority: Where more than one person is authorized to represent a shareholder which is not a natural person and more than one person purports to exercise a power on behalf of that shareholder, if each such person purports to exercise the power in the same way, the power is treated as exercised in that way; and if each such person does not purport to exercise the power in the same way, the power is treated as not exercised.

Voting

17.

At the meeting voting on each resolution will be by way of a poll.

Communications

18.

Shareholders who have general queries about the Annual General Meeting should contact the Company’s Acting General Counsel at investor.relations@atotech.com. No other method of communication will be accepted. You may not use any electronic address provided either in this notice or any related documents (including the Form of Proxy) to communicate with the Company for any purposes other than those expressly stated.

Attendance

19.

Quorum: A quorum consists of two shareholders holding in aggregate not less than a simple majority of all voting share capital of the Company in issue present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote, provided that: (i) as the Company is a Controlled Company (as defined in the Articles), the Annual General Meeting shall not be quorate unless the Carlyle Shareholders (as defined in the Articles) holding in the aggregate a majority of all shares held by the Carlyle Shareholders are in attendance (provided that each such shareholder holds shares in the Company); and (ii) the minimum quorum for any meeting shall be two shareholders entitled to vote representing in excess of 50% of the total issued shares at the commencement of the meeting.

20.

Attendance in Person: Shareholders, or their proxies, intending to attend the Annual General Meeting in person are requested, if possible, to arrive at the venue for the Annual General Meeting at least 20 minutes prior to the commencement of the Annual General Meeting at 4:00 p.m. Central European Time / 2:00 p.m. Greenwich Mean Time on August 1, 2022, so that their shareholding may be checked against the Company’s register of members and attendances recorded.

The Company is currently monitoring all government guidelines in the United Kingdom to ensure that any special measures required to be put in place for the Annual General Meeting in response to the ongoing COVID-19 situation are implemented. If we determine that we need to change the format of our meeting to allow shareholder participation by means of remote communication, we will announce the decision to do so (in the format required by guidance of the SEC) and include details on our website (http://www.investors.atotech.com), in each case, prior to the Annual General Meeting. If you plan to attend the Annual General Meeting in person, please check our website before you travel. The contents of our website are not incorporated by reference in and do not constitute a part of this notice.

In light of the ongoing COVID-19 situation globally, we strongly encourage shareholders to appoint the relevant persons as their proxy (as per the instructions included in the Notice of Annual General Meeting) with their voting instructions and, if they wish to observe the Annual General Meeting, to do so remotely via the Virtual Meeting Platform.

22.

Solicitation Costs: We are paying for the distribution of the proxy materials and solicitation of the proxies.

Proxy solicitation expenses that we will pay include those for preparation, mailing, returning and tabulating the proxies.

EXPLANATORY NOTES TO THE NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

Voting on all resolutions at the Annual General Meeting will be by way of a poll rather than a show of hands. This reflects best practice and means that votes of both shareholders who have lodged proxies and shareholders who attend the meeting will be taken into account.

We will announce preliminary results at the Annual General Meeting. We will report final results by furnishing a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K (the “Form 6-K”) promptly after the Annual General Meeting. If final results are not available at that time, we will provide preliminary voting results in the Form 6-K and will provide the final results in an amendment to the Form 6-K as soon as they become available. The results will also published on our website as soon as practicable following the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting.

Resolution 1 - Annual Report and Accounts for the financial year ended December 31, 2021

The directors are required to present to shareholders at the Annual General Meeting the Annual Report and Accounts for the financial year ended December 31, 2021. The annual accounts for the financial year ended December 31, 2021 and the report of the auditor are contained within such Annual Report and Accounts and are available for review or download at http://www.investors.atotech.com.

As a public company incorporated under the laws of the Bailiwick of Jersey, for each financial year the directors must present audited accounts and an independent auditor’s report on the financial statements to shareholders at an annual general meeting. Those to be presented at the Annual General Meeting are in respect of the year ended December 31, 2021 and will be delivered to the Jersey Companies Registry following the Annual General Meeting. The Jersey statutory accounts are substantially similar to the financial statements included in our Annual Report, which was filed with the SEC on April 11, 2022 and distributed to our shareholders with this proxy statement. In accordance with our obligations under Jersey law, we will provide our shareholders at the Annual General Meeting an opportunity to receive the annual report and ask any relevant and appropriate questions of the representative of KPMG AG Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft in attendance, if such representative is in attendance, at the Annual General Meeting. The full accounts, including the independent auditor’s report, of the Company will be available for inspection prior to and during the Annual General Meeting. The vote on this resolution is an advisory vote only, and therefore, not binding on the Company or the Board. However, the Board will consider the voting results when making decisions regarding the future strategy and operations of the Company.

Resolutions 2, 3 and 4 - Re-appointment of directors

Resolutions 5 and 6 - re-appointment of auditor and remuneration

Under Jersey law, a company that is required to appoint an auditor must at each annual general meeting appoint an auditor to hold office from the conclusion of that meeting to the conclusion of the next annual general meeting.

KPMG AG Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft (“KPMG”) has expressed its willingness to continue in office as auditor, and resolution 5 approves the re-appointment of KPMG as auditors of the Company until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting.

Resolution 6 authorizes the audit committee to determine the remuneration of the auditors. The fees of KPMG for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 are included below.

KPMG has served as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal years 2021 and 2020. Our accountant’s fees for professional services are as follows:


	YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
($ in millions)	2021		2020
Audit fees	$	4.2	$	4.0
Audit-related fees		0.3		0.1
Tax fees		—		—
All Other fees		—		—
Total	$	4.5	$	4.1

“Audit Fees” are the aggregate fees earned by KPMG for the audit of our consolidated annual financial statements, reviews of interim financial statements, review of registration statements and comfort letters for the Company and attestation services that are provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

“Audit-related Fees” are fees charged by KPMG for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and are not reported under “Audit Fees.” This category comprises fees for agreed upon procedure engagements and other attestation services subject to regulatory requirements and review of certain internal controls over financial reporting implemented by management.

“Tax Fees” include fees billed for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning services.

“Other Fees” are fees charged by KPMG for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and are not reported under “Audit Fees.” For the last two years, we did not have any such fees.

The Company’s audit committee approves all auditing services and permitted non-audit services performed for the Company by its independent auditor in advance of an engagement. All auditing services and permitted non-audit services to be performed for the Company by its independent auditor must be approved by the

Committee in advance to ensure that such engagements do not impair the independence of our independent registered public accounting firm. All audit-related service fees were approved by the Audit Committee.

We expect that a representative of KPMG will attend the Annual General Meeting and the representative will have an opportunity to make a statement if he or she so chooses. The representative will also be available to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders.
