Trinseo S.A. Société anonyme Registered office: R.C.S. Luxembourg: B 153.549 (the Company) 46A avenue John F. Kennedy L-1855 Luxembourg Grand Duchy of Luxembourg REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY IN RESPECT OF THE ANNUAL ACCOUNTS PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES GENERALLY ACCEPTED IN LUXEMBOURG FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDING ON DECEMBER 31, 2017 AND THE CONSOLIDATED ACCOUNTS OF THE COMPANY PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES GENERALLY ACCEPTED IN THE UNITED STATES FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDING ON DECEMBER 31, 2017 TO THE GENERAL MEETING OF THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY Dear Shareholders, The board of directors of the Company (the Board) presents the annual accounts of the Company prepared in accordance with accounting principles genarally accepted in Luxembourg (the Annual Accounts) and its consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States including a footnote reconciliation of equity and net income to International Financial Reporting Standards (the Consolidated Accounts) for the financial year ending on December 31, 2017 (the Financial Year). During the financial year under review the Company made a loss of USD 8,981,870.34. The Board recommends to carry forward the loss to the following year. The accounts do not show any extraordinary figures. The Company has acquired its own shares (the Treasury Shares). The Company has no plans to open new branches. The Board suggests to the shareholders of the Company to approve the Annual Accounts and the Consolidated Accounts and to grant full discharge (quitus) to the Board and the company s statutory auditor for all their acts and duties in respect of, and in connection with, the Financial Year. The Board remains at the full disposal of the shareholders for any further information in relation to the above. 11

Trinseo S.A. Société anonyme Registered office: 46A avenue John F. Kennedy L-1855 Luxembourg Grand Duchy of Luxembourg R.C.S. Luxembourg B 153.549 (the Company) REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY IN RESPECT OF THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO ARTICLE 5.5 OF THE COMPANY'S ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION TO BE VOTED ON AT THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY ON JUNE 20, 2018 Dear Shareholders, Under Luxembourg law, a Luxembourg incorporated company needs the authorization of its shareholders to issue shares. The current authorization for a period of five (5) years ends in May 2019. The board of directors of the Company (the Board) believes it is in the best interests of the Company to renew the Board s authority under Article 5.5 of its Articles of Association, and is therefore seeking authorization to issue its ordinary shares for a period of five (5) years from the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting, within the following limits: 20% of the existing share capital for issuances without preemptive rights. As of April 17, 2018, the Company had 48,777,934 shares issued; and 100% of the existing share capital for issuances with preemptive rights. This authorization would give the Board continued flexibility to issue ordinary shares with appropriate limits at such time or times as the Board in its discretion deems advisable, including, but in no way limited to, capital raising and financing, funding acquisitions, the settlement of shares under its employee incentive plans, and any other reason deemed advisable by the Board. Granting the Board this authority is a routine matter for companies incorporated in Luxembourg. This authority is fundamental to our business, as it is for all other companies incorporated in the United States, who have this authority without additional shareholder approval. We are not asking you to approve an increase in our authorized share capital. Approval of this proposal will only grant the Board the authority to issue shares that are already authorized under our Articles of Association on the terms described above. The full text of the proposed amendment to Article 5.5 of the Company s Articles of Association is set forth below: 12

5.5 The Board is authorised, for a period of five (5) years from the date of publication of these Articles as agreed to be amended on June 20, 2018, and without prejudice to any renewals, to: (a) increase the issued share capital, in whole or in part and on one (1) or more occasions, up to 20 percent of the existing share capital without preemptive rights and up to 100 percent of the existing share capital with preemptive rights, with the rights as set out in these Articles, against payment in cash or in kind or against a contribution of share premium, account 115, distributable reserves or retained earnings; (b) determine the place and date of the issue (or any successive issue) and the terms and conditions of the subscription for the Shares; (c) determine the allocation of the subscription price for the Shares to the share capital, share premium and/or any other reserve account of the Company; (d) limit and/or withdraw the preferential subscription rights of existing Shareholders in case of an issuance of Shares, as the case may be; and (e) record each such share capital increase by way of a notarial deed and amend the register of Shares to reflect the amendment accordingly. Under Luxembourg law, amendments to the articles of association of a company require an extraordinary resolution of shareholders. As such, the Amended and Restated Articles of Association will be adopted if approved by two-thirds of the votes cast by our shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting. If approved by our shareholders, the minutes of the Extraordinary General Meeting related to this proposal and the Amended and Restated Articles of Association will be notarized and filed with the Luxembourg trade registry (Registre de Commerce et des Sociétés) as public documents and will take effect immediately upon publication of the notarial deed recording the minutes of the Extraordinary General Meeting in the Luxembourg Official Gazette (Recueil Electronique des Sociétés et Associations). If the proposal is not approved, our current authority to issue shares, will remain in effect until expired. The Board remains at the full disposal of the shareholders for any further information in relation to the above. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS By: Christopher D. Pappas By: Henri Steinmetz Title: Director Title: Director 13
