On April 10, 2026, the Board of Directors of Birchtech Corp.

Additional details regarding the exact time, location and matters to be voted on at the 2026 Annual Meeting will be provided in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2026 Annual Meeting.

Any such proposal must also meet the requirements set forth in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission in order to be eligible for inclusion in the proxy materials for the 2026 Annual Meeting and must comply with the advance notice provisions contained in the Company’s amended and restated bylaws.

Additionally, a stockholder intending to submit a proposal outside the processes of Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act or to nominate persons for election to serve as a director of the Company, in each case in connection with the 2026 Annual Meeting, to be considered timely, must provide written notice of such proposal or nomination to the Company’s Secretary at the address set forth above not later than the close of business on May 26, 2026.
