On October 22, 2025, Hexcel Corporation (the "Company") entered into a master confirmation (each, a "Master Confirmation") and supplemental confirmation (together with the related Master Confirmation, collectively, the "ASR Agreements"), with each of Bank of America, N.A. ("Bank of America") and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (together with Bank of America, the "Counterparties"). Under the ASR Agreements, the Company will repurchase an aggregate of $350 million of the Company's common stock, $0.01 par value per share (such stock, the "Common Stock," and such transaction, the "ASR") as part of a new share repurchase program (the "2025 Share Repurchase Program") approved by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") on October 22, 2025. Pursuant to the ASR Agreements, the Company will make payments in an aggregate amount of $350 million to the Counterparties on October 24, 2025, and the Company will receive on October 24, 2025 the initial deliveries of approximately 80% of the total shares that are expected to be repurchased under the ASR. The final number of shares to be repurchased will be based on the average of the daily volume-weighted average prices of the Company's common stock during the term of the ASR Agreements, less a discount and subject to adjustments pursuant to the terms and conditions of the ASR Agreements. Upon final settlement of the ASR, under certain circumstances, each of the Counterparties may be required to deliver additional shares of common stock, or the Company may be required to deliver shares of common stock or to make a cash payment, at its election, to the Counterparties. The final settlement of each transaction under the ASR Agreements is scheduled to occur no later than the first quarter of 2026 and in each case may be accelerated at the option of the applicable Counterparty. Each of the ASR Agreements contains customary terms for these types of transactions, including, among others
