AND I DO HEREBY FURTHER CERTIFY THAT THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE AFORESAID CERTIFICATE OF AMENDMENT IS THE FIFTEENTH DAY OF JANUARY, A.D. 2021.

Senior management believes these measures are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to Avient's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure Avient's operating results due to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude. In addition, operating income before the effect of special items is a component of Avient's annual incentive plans and is used in debt covenant computations. Senior management believes these measures are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to Avient's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure Avient's operating results due to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude.

A typical remedy, adding toners and colorants, can have a detrimental effect on the brightness of the final product. This effect contributes towards reducing CO2 emissions. 14 15 16 17 8 9 10 11 0 20 40 60 80 100 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 Increasing SmartHeat RHC Concentration Translates to 25% CO2 reductions based on energy savings reducing CO2 emissions by 114 tonnes per year on one commercial blowing line CO 2 ( to nn es ) 14 15 16 17 8 9 10 11 0 20 40 60 80 100 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 SmartHeat RHC products are supplied in ColorMatrix™ approved packaging and are active as supplied.

Climate Change As more scientific reports continue to warn of the urgent and impending effects of climate change, implementation of circular economics can be a powerful step towards helping to solve the world’s climate crisis. https://ellenmacarthurfoundation.org/topics/climate/overview https://ellenmacarthurfoundation.org/topics/plastics/overview The Environment A circular economy is projected to have a positive effect on the environment and industry, and it’s one of the necessary components in helping companies achieve net zero emissions. In addition, one of the largest comparative studies on the impact of implementing a circular economy demonstrated a positive effect on employment, in part due to new jobs in recycling and remanufacturing.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: • Disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit markets that could adversely impact the availability of credit already arranged and the availability and cost of credit in the future; • The effect on foreign operations of currency fluctuations, tariffs and other political, economic and regulatory risks; • Disruptions or inefficiencies in our supply chain, logistics, or operations; • Changes in laws and regulations in jurisdictions where we conduct business, including with respect to plastics and climate change; • Fluctuations in raw material prices, quality and supply, and in energy prices and supply; • Demand for our products and services; • Production outages or material costs associated with scheduled or unscheduled maintenance programs; • Unanticipated developments that could occur with respect to contingencies such as litigation and environmental matters; • Our ability to pay regular quarterly cash dividends and the amounts and timing of any future dividends; • Information systems failures and cyberattacks; • Amounts for cash and non-cash charges related to restructuring plans that may differ from original estimates, including because of timing changes associated with the underlying actions; • Our ability to achieve strategic objectives and successfully integrate acquisitions, including the implementation of a cloud-based enterprise resource planning system, S/4HANA; • Other factors affecting our business beyond our control, including without limitation, changes in the general economy, changes in interest rates, changes in the rate of inflation, geopolitical conflicts and any recessionary conditions; and • Other factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended 2023年12月31日 under Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”In addition, operating income before the effect of special items is a component of Avient’s annual incentive plans and is used in debt covenant computations. Senior management believes the measures described above are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to Avient's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure Avient's operating results due to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude.
