A further 1,729,737 voting rights are attributable to BCIH because its subsidiary B & C Pontos Holding GmbH (FN 392496a), which is indirectly wholly-owned by BCIH as BCIH holds the only corporate share in B & C Triton Holding GmbH (FN 383080d), the sole shareholder of B & C Pontos Holding GmbH, is the owner of 1,729,737 shares in AMAG.

Due to agreements concluded with AMAG Employees Private Foundation and with Oberbank AG, a further 3,957,370 AMAG shares and an identical number of voting rights are attributable to BCIH pursuant to sec. 92 of the Stock Exchange Act.

Thus, a total of 22,546,001 of AMAG shares (63.93% of the voting capital stock) and an identical number of voting rights in AMAG are attributable to BCIH.

BCIH does not hold any notifiable financial instruments pursuant to sec. 91a of the Stock Exchange Act.

As from January 14, 2015, 22,546,001 voting rights in AMAG have therefore been attributable to BCHÖ according to sections 91, 92 of the Stock Exchange Act. BCHÖ thus exceeded the notifiable limit of 50% according to sec. 91 para. 1 of the Stock Exchange Act on January 14, 2015.

BCHÖ does not hold any notifiable financial instruments pursuant to sec. 91a of the Stock Exchange Act.

3.) As B & C Privatstiftung is the sole shareholder of BCHÖ and the latter holds the only corporate share in BCIH, the percentage of the voting capital stock of AMAG attributable to B & C Privatstiftung through its subsidiaries remains unchanged at about 63.93%.
