Part II Organizational Action Attach additional statements if needed. See back of form for additional questions.

14 Describe the organizational action and, if applicable, the date of the action or the date against which shareholders' ownership is measured for

the action I On January 29, 2024, QIAGEN N.V. (the "Company") engaged in a corporate transaction plan (the "Synthetic Share Repurchase Plan"). Pursuant to the Synthetic Share Repurchase Plan, each shareholder of record as of the close of business on January 29, 2024, received 0.97 shares for each Company share owned (i.e., 24.25 shares for each 25 shares owned) (the "Reverse Stock Split") and also received a payment of $1.28 per pre-Reverse Stock Split share owned by each shareholder of record (the "Distribution").

15 Describe the quantitative effect of the organizational action on the basis of the security in the hands of a U.S. taxpayer as an adjustment per

share or as a percentage of old basis I The exchange of 25 shares for 24.25 shares pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split should be non-taxable to the shareholders. Accordingly, a U.S. shareholder's aggregate tax basis in the Company common stock received in the Reverse Stock Split should equal the aggregate tax basis in the common stock surrendered for U.S. federal tax purposes. Note that this Form 8937 does not address consequences of the Distribution.

This Form 8937 does not constitute tax advice. Shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the particular consequences of the Synthetic Share Repurchase Plan, including the applicability and effect of all U.S. federal, state and local, and foreign tax laws.

16 Describe the calculation of the change in basis and the data that supports the calculation, such as the market values of securities and the

valuation dates I The adjusted tax basis of the shares of Company stock received in the Reverse Stock Split should be the adjusted tax basis in the shares of common stock surrendered

therefore, adjusted to reflect to the exchange ratios used in the Reverse Stock Split.

See the attachment for an example of the adjustment to tax basis in the Reverse Stock Split.

This Form 8937 does not constitute tax advice. Shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the particular consequences of the Synthetic Share Repurchase Plan, including the applicability and effect of all U.S. federal, state and local, and foreign

tax laws.

19 Provide any other information necessary to implement the adjustment, such as the reportable tax year I The Reverse Stock Split

was executed on January 29, 2024. For a U.S. shareholder whose taxable year is a calendar year, the reportable tax year is 2024.

Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have examined this return, including accompanying schedules and statements, and to the best of my knowledge and belief, it is true, correct, and complete. Declaration of preparer (other than officer) is based on all information of which preparer has any knowledge.

Pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split, such U.S. shareholder received approximately* 349.20 shares of Company common stock (360 shares x 0.97 conversion ratio). As a result, the U.S. shareholder would have: (i) 174 shares of Company common stock (180 shares x the conversion ratio, less the fractional share of 0.60) with an aggregate tax basis of $2,690.72 (or $15.46 per share, determined by dividing $2,700 by 174.60 shares) that is treated as having been acquired on Date 1; (ii) 174 shares of Company common stock with an aggregate tax basis of $4,484.54 (or $25.77 per share, determined by dividing $4,500 by 174.60 shares) that is treated as having been acquired on Date 2; and (iii) approximately* 1.20 shares of Company common stock (0.60 for Date 1 shares + 0.60 for Date 2 shares) with an aggregate tax basis of $24.74 ($7,200 - ($2,690.72 + $4,484.54)) that are divided into two equal segments to represent the basis of stock acquired on Dates 1 and 2.

Specifically, with regard to the fractional shares, the U.S. shareholder would have 1 whole share of Company Common stock with an aggregate tax basis of $20.62, with one segment thereof having a tax basis of $7.73 ($15.46 x 0.50 or 180/360) that is treated as having been acquired on Date 1 and a second segment thereof having a tax basis of $12.89 ($25.77 x 0.50 or 180/360) that is treated as having been acquired on Date 2. The fractional share (i.e., the approximate*

0.20 of Company common stock), which has an aggregate tax basis $4.12, would also have two segments, with one segment thereof having a tax basis of $1.54 ($7.73 x 0.20) that is treated as having been acquired on Date 1 and a second segment thereof having a tax basis of $2.58 ($12.89 x 0.20) that is treated as having been acquired on Date 2.

This Form 8937 does not constitute tax advice. Shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the particular consequences of the Plan, including the applicability and effect of all U.S. federal, state and local, and foreign tax laws.
