  9.  Chain of controlled entities through which the shareholding is effectively held:
      Agreement of concert and shareholding structure of AB InBev:

           1) EPS, Rayvax Société d'Investissements, BRC and Stichting Anheuser-Busch InBev are bound
              by a shareholders' agreement organizing the joint control of Stichting Anheuser-Busch InBev by
              EPS and BRC and organizing a concert with Rayvax Société d'Investissements.
           2) AB InBev and its subsidiaries Brandbrew, Ambrew and Brandbev are controlled by Stichting
              Anheuser-Busch InBev, which is jointly controlled by EPS and BRC.
           3) Fonds Baillet Latour and Fonds Voorzitter Verhelst have also signed an agreement to act in
              concert with Stichting Anheuser-Busch InBev. Fonds Baillet Latour is controlled by the stichting
              under Dutch law Fonds InBev Baillet Latour. Fonds Voorzitter Verhelst is controlled by Fonds
              Verhelst SC.
           4) Rayvax Société d'Investissements is not controlled.
           5) EPS is not controlled.
           6) The ultimate control of BRC is jointly owned by Mr Jorge Paulo Lemann, Carlos Alberto da Veiga
              Sicupira and Max Van Hoegaerden Herrmann Telles. A table regarding BRC's complete chain
              of control was included in annex to the notification.

  10. Additional information: Following the dissolution on 13 May 2026 of EPS Participations, a wholly-owned
      subsidiary of EPS, EPS Participations' shareholding decreased from 3.33% to 0%, and EPS's direct
      shareholding increased from 0% to 3.33% in Anheuser-Busch InBev. This transaction does not change
      the aggregate shareholding of the persons subject to the notification obligation. Separately, the
      percentage of voting rights attached to the shares held by Anheuser-Busch InBev has crossed downwards
      the threshold of 3%, and the percentage of voting rights attached to the shares held in aggregate by
      Anheuser-Busch InBev and the parties to the shareholders' agreement has crossed downwards the
      threshold of 40%, on 13 May 2026, prompted by the delivery of treasury shares by Anheuser-Busch InBev.

           1) Certificates issued by Stichting Anheuser-Busch InBev (administrative office): EPS holds
              331,537,416 certificates and BRC holds 331,537,416 certificates issued by Stichting Anheuser-
              Busch InBev. Each of these certificates potentially entitles the holder to 1 Anheuser-Busch InBev
              share, which is held by Stichting Anheuser-Busch InBev. These certificates are not included in
              point 10) B), otherwise the voting rights they represent would have been counted twice.
           2) The natural persons exercising ultimate control over BRC make the declaration on behalf of the
              companies exercising intermediate control above BRC, pursuant to article 11, §1 of the Law of
              2 May 2007. Given that a large number of companies have intermediate control over BRC without
              holding a stake in Anheuser-Busch InBev, these companies have not been included in the table
              of shareholdings, but in a separate table included in annex to the notification.
           3) Anheuser-Busch InBev makes the declaration on behalf of Brandbrew Ambrew and Brandbev,
              its subsidiaries, pursuant to article 11 § 1 of the Law of 2 May 2007.
           4) Stichting Fonds InBev Baillet Latour makes the declaration on behalf of SC Fonds Baillet Latour,
              pursuant to article 11, §1 of the Law of 2 May 2007. Stichting does not directly hold any shares
              of Anheuser-Busch InBev.
           5) The cooperative company Fonds Verhelst makes the declaration on behalf of SC Fonds
              Voorzitter Verhelst, pursuant to article 11, §1 of the Law of 2 May 2007. The first of these
              companies does not directly hold any shares of Anheuser-Busch InBev.
