   ADHOC / Wienerberger resolves on second amendment of share buyback program

   Buyback of now up to 8,830,000 shares corresponding to up to approx. 7.7%
   of Wienerberger's share capital

   Vienna, July 08, 2022 – Based on the authorization granted by the 153rd
   Annual General Meeting on May 3, 2022 pursuant to sect. 65 para. 1 item
   (8) of the Stock Corporation Act, which was published via an electronic
   information dissemination system on May 3, 2022 as well as in the Federal
   Gazette of Wiener Zeitung on May 5, 2022, the Managing Board of
   Wienerberger AG today decided on a second amendment of the currently
   conducted share buyback program, which – after an amendment published on
   10 May 2022 –  provided for a buyback of own ordinary bearer shares of the
   Company at their market price via the Vienna Stock Exchange as well as via
   multilateral trading facilities between March 9, 2022 (inclusive) and
   September 30, 2022 (inclusive) in a total of up to 6,450,000 shares for a
   price per share of between EUR 1.00 and EUR 32.50 (the "buyback program").
   The maximum number of shares to be repurchased under the amended buyback
   program has almost been reached. Wienerberger raises the maximum buyback
   volume of own shares by additional 2,380,000 shares from up to 6,450,000
   shares to up to 8,830,000 shares (corresponding to up to approx. 7.7% of
   the share capital of Wienerberger AG). The maximum term of the buyback
   program until (and including) September 30, 2022 is not amended. The
   maximum purchase price for shares under the buyback program now
   corresponds to EUR 230,000,000. The shares bought back are to be used for
   purposes in accordance with the authorization granted by the Annual
   General Meeting on May 3, 2022. The buyback will still have no impact on
   the admission of the shares of Wienerberger AG to stock exchange trading.

   A credit institution continues to be mandated to execute the share
   buyback. The credit institution has to take its decision on the timing of
   the buyback of Wienerberger AG shares independently of Wienerberger AG and
   comply with the conditions for trading laid down in Article 3 of the
   Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052 of 8 March 2016.

   Note pursuant to sect. 5 para. 4 of the Publication Ordinance 2018: This
   modification as well as further modifications (if any) of the buyback
   program to be disclosed pursuant to sect. 6 of the Publication Ordinance
   2018 are published on the website of Wienerberger AG
   ([1]https://www.wienerberger.com/en/investors/share.html). This
   publication neither constitutes a public offering for the purchase of
   Wienerberger shares, nor does it create an obligation for Wienerberger AG
   or any of its subsidiaries to accept offers for the buyback of
   Wienerberger shares.
