Ladies and Gentlemen:

Materialise NV, a limited liability company (naamloze vennootschap) organized and existing under the laws of the Kingdom of Belgium (“Belgium”) and registered with the Register of Legal Entities of Leuven under the number VAT BE 0441.131.254 (the “Company”), proposes to issue and sell to the several underwriters (the “Underwriters”) named in Schedule I hereto for whom you are acting as representative (the “Representative”) an aggregate of 3,000,000 ordinary shares, with no nominal value, of the Company (the “Ordinary Shares”) to be delivered in the form of American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), as set forth on Schedule I hereto (the “Firm ADSs”). The Ordinary Shares issued and sold by the Company under this Agreement are hereinafter referred to as the “Firm Shares.” The Company has also granted to the several Underwriters an option to purchase up to 450,000 additional Ordinary Shares on the terms and for the purposes set forth in Section 2(b) hereof (the “Option Shares”) to be delivered in the form of ADSs (the “Option ADSs”). The Firm Shares to be issued and sold, respectively, will be delivered in the form of Firm ADSs to The Bank of New York Mellon, as depositary (the “Depositary”) by ING Securities Services, Inc., as custodian for the Depositary (“the Custodian”). The Firm Shares and the Firm ADSs are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Firm Securities.” The Option Shares and the Option ADSs are hereafter collectively referred to as the “Option Securities”. The Firm ADSs and the Option ADSs are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “ADSs.” The Firm Shares and the Option Shares are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Shares.” The Firm Securities and the Option Securities (to the extent that the aforementioned option is exercised) are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Securities.”

The Shares are to be deposited pursuant to the deposit agreement (the “Deposit Agreement”), dated June 24, 2014, among the Company, the Depositary, and holders and beneficial holders from time to time of the American Depositary Receipts (the “ADRs”) issued by the Depositary and evidencing the ADSs. Each ADS will initially represent one Share deposited pursuant to the Deposit Agreement, with the principal Amsterdam office of the Custodian.

Each reference herein to an ADR shall include the corresponding ADS, and vice versa.

The Company hereby confirms its agreement with respect to the sale of the Securities to the several Underwriters, for whom ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Co. is acting as the Representative, as follows:

1. Registration Statement. The Company has prepared and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the “Securities Act”), a shelf registration statement, including a base prospectus relating to the Securities (the “Base Prospectus”) on Form F-3 (File No. 333-226006), and such amendments to such registration statement as may have been required to the date of this Agreement. Such registration statement has been declared effective by the Commission.

Each part of such registration statement, including the amendments, exhibits and any schedules thereto, the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 6 of Form F-3 under the Securities Act and the documents and information otherwise deemed to be a part thereof or included therein by Rule 430B under the Securities Act (the “Rule 430B Information”) as of the time such registration statement became effective, is herein called the “Registration Statement.” The term Registration Statement shall also include, from and after the date and time of any such filing by the Company of any registration statement filed pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act (the “Rule 462(b) Registration Statement”).

Each preliminary prospectus supplement to the Base Prospectus (including the Base Prospectus as so supplemented), that describes the Securities and the offering thereof, that omitted the Rule 430B Information and that was used prior to the filing of the final prospectus supplement referred to in the following sentence is herein called a “Preliminary Prospectus.” Promptly after execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company will prepare and file with the Commission a final prospectus supplement to the Base Prospectus relating to the Securities and the offering thereof in accordance with the provisions Rule 430B and Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act. Such final supplemental form of prospectus (including the Base Prospectus as so supplemented), in the form filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) is herein called the “Prospectus.” Any reference herein to the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 6 of Form F-3 under the Securities Act as of the date of such prospectus.

For purposes of this Agreement, all references to the Registration Statement, the Rule 462(b) Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing shall be deemed to include the copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system or any successor system thereto (“▇▇▇▇▇”).

All references in this Agreement to financial statements and schedules and other information which is “described,” “contained,” “included” or “stated” in the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (or other references of like import) shall be deemed to mean and include all such financial statements and schedules and other information which are incorporated by reference in or otherwise deemed by the Securities Act to be a part of or included in the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be; and all references in this Agreement to amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to mean and include the subsequent filing of any document under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and which is deemed to be incorporated therein by reference or otherwise deemed by the Securities Act to be a part thereof. The Company previously filed with the Commission a registration statement on Form F-6 (File No. 333-196734) which covers the registration of the ADSs under the Securities Act. The registration statement relating to the ADSs, as amended at the time it became effective, is hereinafter referred to as the “ADS Registration Statement.”

At or prior to 8:00P.M., New York City time, on July 23, 2018, or such other time as agreed by the Company and the Representative (the “Applicable Time”), the Company will have prepared the following information (collectively with the pricing information set forth in Annex A, the “Pricing Disclosure Package”): a Preliminary Prospectus dated July 18, 2018, contained in the Registration Statement at the time of its effectiveness (“Statutory Prospectus”) and each “free writing prospectus” (as defined pursuant to Rule 405 under the Securities Act) listed on Annex B hereto.

2. Purchase, Sale and Delivery of the Securities.

(a) Purchase and Sale of Firm Shares. On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) the Company agrees to issue and sell to each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, and (ii) each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase, through ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Co., acting for the account of the several Underwriters, at the price of US$12.155 per Firm Share (the “Purchase Price”), from the Company the respective number of Firm Shares set forth opposite such Underwriter’s name in Schedule I hereto, such Firm Shares to be delivered in the form of Firm ADSs. For the avoidance of doubt, such sales and purchases are subject, in each case, to such adjustments among the Underwriters as the Representative, in its sole discretion, shall make solely to eliminate any sales or purchases of fractional Firm Shares.

(b) Purchase and Sale of Option Shares. In addition, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Underwriters shall have the option to purchase, respectively, severally and not jointly, from the Company, the Option Shares at the Purchase Price less an amount per Option Share equal to any dividends or distributions declared by the Company and payable on the Firm Shares but not payable on the Option Shares, such Option Shares to be delivered in the form of Option ADSs. The maximum aggregate number of Option Shares to be purchased by the Underwriters is set forth in Schedule I hereto. If any Option Shares are to be purchased, the number of Option Shares to be purchased by each Underwriter shall be the number of Option Shares which bears the same ratio to the aggregate number of Option Shares being purchased as the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule I hereto (or such number increased as set forth in Section 11 hereof) bears to the aggregate number of Firm Shares being purchased from the Company by the several Underwriters, subject, however, to such adjustments among the Underwriters as the Representative in its sole discretion shall make solely to eliminate any sales or purchases of fractional Option Shares.

The Underwriters may exercise the option to purchase Option Shares at any time in whole, or from time to time in part, on or before the thirtieth day following the date of the Prospectus, by written notice from the Representative to the Company. The notice from the Representative to the Company shall set forth the aggregate number of Option Shares as to which the option is being exercised and the date and time when the Option Shares are to be delivered in the form of Option ADSs, and paid for, which may be the same date and time as the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined) but shall not be earlier than the Closing Date or later than the fifth full business day (as hereinafter defined) after the date of such notice (unless such time and date are postponed in accordance with the provisions of Section 11 hereof).

(c) Sale of ADSs to Public. The Company understands that the Underwriters intend to make a public offering of the ADSs as soon after the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and this Agreement as in the judgment of the Representative is advisable, and initially to offer the ADSs on the terms set forth in the Prospectus. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters may offer and sell ADSs to or through any affiliate of an Underwriter.

(d) Payment and Delivery of Shares. Payment for the Shares shall be made in Federal (same day) funds by wire transfer to a blocked account designated by the Company with KBC Bank NV (the “Blocked Account”) on the second (or third, if the Applicable Time occurs after 4:30 p.m., New York City time) business day after the date hereof, or at such other time on the same or such other date, not later than the third business day thereafter as the Representative and the Company shall agree upon, such time and date being herein referred to as the “Closing Date” or, in the case of the Option Shares, on the date and at the time specified by the Representative in the written notice of the Underwriters’ election to purchase such Option Shares. The time and date for such payment for the Option Shares, if other than the Closing Date, is herein referred to as the “Additional Closing Date.” All funds shall be available on the Blocked Account at the opening of business in Belgium (8:00 a.m. Brussels time) on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as applicable.

The Blocked Account shall be an account that qualifies as special account pursuant to Article 600 of the Belgian Company Code. Promptly upon receipt of the funds on the Blocked Account in accordance with the first paragraph of this Section 2(d) above, KBC Bank NV shall issue to the Company a certificate in accordance with Article 600 of the Belgian Company Code, confirming that the payment for the Firm Shares and the Option Shares, respectively, was credited on the Blocked Account. The certificate shall be delivered to the notary public referred to below.

Upon receipt of the certificate confirming that the payment for the Firm Shares and the Option Shares has been credited on the Block Account, the Company shall ensure (i) that the Shares are issued in accordance with Article 589 of the Belgian Company Code and with the decision of the Board of Directors dated July 18, 2018, as recorded in the notarial deed of the same date passed before the notary public Notaris Vroninks ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ of VRONINKS, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & WEYTS—notaires associés or any other notary public as designated by him, and (ii) that the Firm ADSs and the Option ADSs, are issued by the Depositary to the Underwriters by noon U.S. Eastern Time on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as applicable. In the event that delivery of the Shares is not made to the Representative as set forth in the preceding sentence, the Company will instruct KBC Bank NV to immediately return in full all funds attributable to the payment made by the Representative for the Shares to the Representative’s agent, Pershing LLC, via Fed Funds by close of business on the Closing Date or Additional Closing Date, as the case may be. In the event that the ADSs are not delivered to the Underwriters in a timely manner, the Company shall remain liable to Pershing LLC for any losses incurred.

Following the issuance of the Firm Shares or the Option Shares to the Underwriters, the Underwriters shall transfer title with respect to the Firm Shares or the Option Shares to the Depositary on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as applicable, to enable delivery of the ADSs by the Depositary to the Representative, and subsequently to the other several Underwriters or to investors, as the case may be, shall be through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) unless the Representative shall otherwise instruct.

The delivery of the ADSs to the Representative for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters to be purchased on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, shall be made in definitive form registered in such names and in such denominations as the Representative shall request in writing not later than two full business days prior to the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, with any transfer taxes payable in connection with the sale of such ADSs duly paid by the Company.

(e) Principal and Not Agent. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters are acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Company with respect to the offering of the ADSs contemplated hereby (including in connection with determining the terms of the offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Company or any other person. Additionally, neither the Representative nor any other Underwriter is advising the Company or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. The Company shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Underwriters shall have no responsibility or liability to the Company with respect thereto. Any review by the Underwriters of the Company, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of the Underwriters and shall not be on behalf of the Company.

(o) Exchange Listing. The ADSs to be delivered on the Closing Date or Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, shall have been approved for listing on NASDAQ, subject to official notice of issuance.

(p) Lock-Up Letters. The Lock-Up Letters, each fully executed by the applicable parties thereto and substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, shall be delivered to the Representative on or before the date hereof, shall be in full force and effect on the Closing Date or Additional Closing Date, as the case may be.

7. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Indemnification of the Underwriters by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 501(b) of Regulation D or Rule 405 under the Act), directors and officers, employees, agents, and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 14 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented outside legal fees and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted), joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise that arise out of, or are based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or arise out of, or are based upon, any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication, any written materials prepared in connection with a road show as defined in 433(h) under the Securities Act, including any electronic road show (“Written Road Show Materials”), or any Pricing Disclosure Package (including any Pricing Disclosure Package that has subsequently been amended), or arise out of, or are based upon, any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to any Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through the Representative expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 7(b) below.

(b) Indemnification of the Company. Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 501(b) of Regulation D or Rule 405 under the Act), directors and officers whose signatures appear in the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented outside legal fees and other expenses

reasonably incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted), joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through the Representative expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication, any Written Road Show Materials or any Pricing Disclosure Package (including any Pricing Disclosure Package that has subsequently been amended), in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Representative, or by such Underwriter through the Representative, specifically for use in the preparation thereof. It being understood and agreed upon that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the following information in the Registration Statement, Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus furnished on behalf of each Underwriter: the information contained in the second, twelfth, thirteenth, fourteenth and sixteenth paragraphs under the caption “Underwriting.”

(c) Notice and Procedures. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to the preceding paragraphs of this Section 7, such person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 7 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 7. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have notified the Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (who shall not, without the consent of the Indemnified Person, be counsel to the Indemnifying Person) to represent the Indemnified Person in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding, as reasonably incurred and the Indemnifying Person shall have the right to participate therein. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded based on advice from outside counsel that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be paid or reimbursed upon notice as they are incurred. Any such separate firm or counsel for any Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers, employees, agents and any control persons of such Underwriter shall be designated in writing by the Representative, any such separate firm or counsel for the Company, its directors, its officers who signed the Registration Statement and any control persons of the Company shall be designated in writing by the Company. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested that an Indemnifying Person reimburse the Indemnified Person for reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such request and (ii) the Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement or have not otherwise notified such indemnified party in good faith that such indemnifying party is contesting the amount of such reimbursement request. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification or contribution could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matters of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault or culpability by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

(e) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) above is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, from the offering of the ADSs pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, from the offering of the ADSs pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds (before deducting expenses) from the offering of the ADSs received by the Company, as applicable, and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate offering price of the ADSs as set forth on such cover. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or the Underwriters, on the other hand, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(f) Limitation on Liability. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if all of the Underwriters were collectively treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 7(d) above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 7(d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, in no event shall an Underwriter be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with respect to the offering of the ADSs exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7 are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations hereunder and not joint.

(g) Non-Exclusive Remedies. The remedies provided for in this Section 7 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity.

8. Effectiveness of Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

9. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Representative, by notice to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date or, in the case of the Option ADSs, prior to the Additional Closing Date (A) any of the conditions provided for in Section 7 herein shall not have been fulfilled when and as required by this Agreement to be fulfilled; (B) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on or by the New York Stock Exchange or The NASDAQ Stock Market; (C) trading of any securities issued or guaranteed by the Company shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market; (D) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by U.S. or Belgian federal or New York State authorities; or (E) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis, either within or outside the United States and Belgium, that, in the judgment of the Representative, is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Shares or ADSs on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

10. Default by the Company.

(a) Default by the Company. If the Company shall fail at the Closing Date to sell and deliver the number of Securities which it is obligated to sell hereunder, then this Agreement shall terminate without any liability on the part of any Underwriter, except as provided in Section 7 and Section 12 hereof, any non-defaulting party.

(c) No Relief from Liability. No action taken pursuant to this Section shall relieve the Company so defaulting from liability, if any, in respect of such default.

11. Defaulting Underwriter.

(a) If, on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, any Underwriter defaults on its obligation to purchase the ADSs that it has agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, the non-defaulting Underwriters may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such ADSs by other persons satisfactory to the Company on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Underwriter, the non-defaulting Underwriters do not arrange for the purchase of such ADSs, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons satisfactory to the non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase such ADSs on such terms. If other persons become obligated or agree to purchase the ADSs of a defaulting Underwriter, either the non-defaulting Underwriters or the Company may postpone the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, for up to five full business days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in any other document or arrangement, and the Company agrees to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus to effect any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires, any person not listed in Schedule I that, pursuant to this Section 11, purchases ADSs that a defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase.

(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the ADSs of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate number of ADSs that remain unpurchased on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, does not exceed 10% of the aggregate number of ADSs to be purchased on such date, then each non-defaulting Underwriter shall be obligated to purchase the number of ADSs that such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder on such date plus such Underwriter’s pro rata share (based on the number of ADSs that such Underwriter agreed to purchase on such date) of the ADSs of such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made.

(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the ADSs of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate number of ADSs that remain unpurchased on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, exceeds 10% of the aggregate number of ADSs to be purchased on such date, then this Agreement or, with respect to the Additional Closing Date, the obligation of the Underwriters to purchase ADSs on the Additional Closing Date, shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriters. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11 shall be without liability on the part of the Company, except that the Company will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses as set forth in Section 12 hereof for any non-defaulting Underwriters and except that the provisions of Section 7 hereof shall not terminate and shall remain in effect mutatis mutandis.

(d) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of any liability it may have to the Company or any non-defaulting Underwriter for damages caused by its default.

12. Payment of Expenses.

(a) The Company agrees that, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereunder are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, the Company will pay or cause to be paid (other than with respect to a defaulting Underwriter hereunder) (i) all expenses (including transfer taxes allocated to the respective transferees) incurred in connection with the delivery to the Underwriters of the ADSs, (ii) all expenses and fees (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of the Company’s accountants and counsel but, except as otherwise provided below, not including fees of the Underwriters’ advisors or counsel) in connection with the preparation, printing, filing, delivery, and shipping of the Registration Statement (including the financial statements therein and all amendments, schedules, and exhibits thereto), the ADSs, each Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, and the printing, delivery, and shipping of each of the Transaction Documents, including the Blue Sky Memorandum (covering the states and other applicable jurisdictions), (iii) the fees and expenses of the Depositary, the Custodian to the Depositary and any transfer agent or registrar, as agreed with them, respectively, (iv) all filing fees and reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of the Underwriters’ counsel incurred in connection with the qualification of the ADSs for offering and sale by the Underwriters or by dealers under the securities or blue sky laws of the states and other jurisdictions which the Representative shall designate; provided that the reasonable fees and disbursements of Underwriters’ counsel relating to this subclause (iv) shall not exceed $10,000, (v) the filing fees and reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of Underwriters’ counsel incident to any required review and approval by FINRA of the terms of the sale of the ADSs; provided that the reasonable fees and disbursements of Underwriters’ counsel relating to this subclause (v) shall not

exceed $35,000, (vi) all application fees related to the listing of the ADSs on NASDAQ, (vii) the cost and expenses of the Company relating to investor presentations or any “road show” undertaken in connection with marketing of the ADSs, including, without limitation, expenses associated with the preparation or dissemination of any electronic road show, expenses associated with the production of road show slides and graphics, fees and expenses of any consultants engaged in connection with the road show presentations with the prior approval of the Company, travel and lodging expenses of the representatives and officers of the Company and any such consultants, and 50% of the cost of any aircraft chartered in connection with the road show (it being understood that the other 50% of such cost of any chartered aircraft shall be the responsibility of the Underwriters and that the other travel, lodging and individual expenses of the Underwriters shall be the responsibility of the Underwriters), and (viii) all other costs and expenses of the Company incident to the performance of its obligations hereunder that are not otherwise specifically provided for herein.

(b) All amounts payable hereunder in respect of fees and expenses shall be paid in U.S. dollars and free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding for or on account of, any applicable taxes, levies, duties, charges or other deductions or withholdings levied in any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made, unless such deduction or withholding is required by applicable law, in which event the Company will pay additional amounts so that the persons entitled to such payments will receive the amount that such persons would otherwise have received but for such deduction or withholding.

(c) If (i) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9, (ii) the Company for any reason fail to tender the ADSs for delivery to the Underwriters or (iii) the Underwriters decline to purchase the ADSs because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof, other than the default by one or more of the Underwriters in its or their respective obligations hereunder, the Company agrees to reimburse the Underwriters for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of their legal counsel) reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in connection with this Agreement and the offering contemplated hereby.

13. Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and, with respect to indemnification obligations, the officers, directors, affiliates, employees, agents and any controlling persons referred to in Section 7 hereof. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any other person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein. No purchaser of ADSs from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor merely by reason of such purchase.

14. Survival. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and agreements of the Company and the Underwriters contained in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of the Company or the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the delivery of and payment for the ADSs and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or the Underwriters.

15. Certain Defined Terms. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) except where otherwise expressly provided, the term “affiliate” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act; (b) the term “business day” means any day other than a day on which banks are permitted or required to be closed in New York City; and (c) the term “subsidiary” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act.

16. Submission to Jurisdiction; Appointment of Agent for Service.

(a) The Company irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or United States Federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the ADS Registration Statement or the offering of the ADSs. The Company irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. To the extent that the Company has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise) from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process with respect to itself or its property, the Company irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, such immunity in respect of any such suit, action or proceeding.

(b) The Company hereby appoints Materialise USA, LLC, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇., ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, as its agent for service of process in any suit, action or proceeding described the preceding paragraph and agrees that service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be made upon it at the office of such agent. The Company waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any other requirements of or objections to personal jurisdiction with respect thereto. The Company represents and warrants that such agent has agreed to act as its agent for service of process. To the extent that the Company determines to appoint a new agent for service of process, the Company agrees to promptly notify the Representative of the name and address of such new agent for service of process.

17. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into any currency other than U.S. dollars, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Underwriters could purchase U.S. dollars with such other currency in The City of New York on the business day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Company with respect to any sum due from it to any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter under this Agreement shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than U.S. dollars, not be discharged until the first business day following receipt by such Underwriter or controlling person of any sum in such other currency, and only to the extent that such Underwriter or controlling person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase U.S. dollars with such other currency. If the U.S. dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to such Underwriter or controlling person hereunder, the Company agrees as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Underwriter or controlling person against such loss. If the U.S. dollars so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to such Underwriter or controlling person hereunder, such Underwriter or controlling person agrees to pay to the Company an amount equal to the excess of the U.S. dollars so purchased over the sum originally due to such Underwriter or controlling person hereunder.

18. Miscellaneous.

(a) Authority of the Representative. Any action by the Underwriters hereunder may be taken by the Representative on behalf of the Underwriters, and any such action taken by the Representative shall be binding upon the Underwriters.

Re: Materialise NV — Secondary Offering

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned to this letter (the “Lock-Up Letter”) understands that ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Co., as Representative of the several Underwriters, proposes to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Materialise NV, a limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the Kingdom of Belgium and registered with the Register of Legal Persons (Belgium) under the number VAT BE 0441.131.254 (the “Company”), providing for the secondary offering (the “Offering”) by the several Underwriters named in Schedule I to the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriters”), of American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) each representing an ordinary share of the Company, with no nominal value (the “Ordinary Shares”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Underwriting Agreement.

In consideration of the Underwriters’ agreement to purchase and make the Offering of the ADSs, and for other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Representative on behalf of the Underwriters, the undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending 90 days after the public offering date set forth on the Statutory Prospectus (the “Lock-Up Period”), (1) offer, pledge, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Ordinary Shares or ADSs or any securities convertible into, exercisable or exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive Ordinary Shares or ADSs (including without limitation, Ordinary Shares or ADSs which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and Ordinary Shares or ADSs which may be issued upon exercise of a stock option or warrant), whether now owned or hereafter acquired (the “Lock-Up Securities”); (2) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-Up Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Ordinary Shares or ADSs or such other securities, in cash or otherwise; (3) make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any Ordinary Shares or ADSs or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares or ADSs under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); or (4) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the undersigned may transfer the Lock-Up Securities (i) as a bona fide gift or gifts, (ii) to an immediate family member or any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or one or more members of the immediate family of the undersigned, (iii) to any corporation, partnership or limited liability company, all of the shareholders, partners or members of which consist of the undersigned and/or one or more members of such undersigned’s immediate family, (iv) if the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other business entity (A) to another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other business entity that is an affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) of the undersigned or (B) to limited partners, limited liability company members, stockholders or other equity holders of the undersigned as distributions of the Lock-Up Securities, (v) if the undersigned is a trust, to the beneficiary of such trust, (vi) by testate succession or intestate succession or (vii) pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement; provided, the exceptions provided in clauses (ii) through (vi) shall apply only if such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value; and provided, further, the exceptions provided in clauses (i) through (vi) shall apply only if (y) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this Lock-Up Letter that are applicable to the transferor, to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of the transfer and (z) no filing or public announcement by any party under of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise, shall be required or shall be made voluntarily in connection with such transfer. For purposes of this Lock-Up Letter, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin.

In addition, the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to (i) the establishment of any contract, instruction or plan (a “Plan”) that satisfies all of the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) under the Exchange Act; provided that no sales of the Lock-Up Securities shall be made pursuant to such a Plan prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, and such a Plan may only be established if no public announcement of the establishment or existence thereof and no filing with the Commission or other regulatory authority in respect thereof or transactions thereunder or contemplated thereby, by the undersigned, the Company or any other person, shall be required, and no such announcement or filing is made voluntarily, by the undersigned, the Company or any other person, prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period; (ii) the “net” or cashless exercise of share options or warrants granted pursuant to the Company’s equity incentive plans (as they existed as of the date of this Lock-Up Letter and disclosed as outstanding in the Registration Statement or Prospectus), provided that they shall apply to any of the Lock-Up Securities issued upon such exercise; (iii) the transfer of Lock-Up Securities to the Company for the surrender or forfeiture of Ordinary Shares or ADSs to satisfy tax withholding obligations upon exercise or vesting of share options, warrants or equity awards, if and only if (a) such surrenders or forfeitures are not required to be reported with the Commission pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, and (b) the undersigned does not otherwise voluntarily effect any public filing or report regarding such surrenders or forfeitures; or (iv) the sale of ADSs purchased by the undersigned on the open market following the Offering, if and only if (a) such sales are not required to be reported with the Commission pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, and (b) the undersigned does not otherwise voluntarily effect any public filing or report regarding such sales.

The undersigned agrees that the foregoing restrictions preclude the undersigned from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of the Lock-Up Securities even if such Lock-Up Securities would be disposed of by someone other than the undersigned. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would include, without limitation, any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including without limitation any put or call option) with respect to any of the Lock-Up Securities or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from such Lock-Up Securities.

With respect to any director or officer of the Company who has executed this Lock-Up Letter, (i) the Representative agrees that, at least three business days before the effective date of any release or waiver of the foregoing restrictions it may grant in connection with a transfer of Ordinary Shares or ADSs, the Representative will notify the Company of the impending release or waiver, and (ii) the Company has agreed in the Underwriting Agreement to announce the impending release or waiver by issuing a press release through a major news service at least two business days before the effective date of the release or waiver. Any release or waiver granted by the Representative hereunder to any such officer or director shall only be effective two business days after the publication date of such press release. The provisions of this paragraph will not apply if both (a) the release or waiver is effected solely to permit a transfer not for consideration, and (b) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this Lock-Up Letter that are applicable to the transferor, to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of the transfer.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company, the Depositary and any duly appointed transfer agent for the registration or transfer of the securities described herein are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of securities if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Lock-Up Letter.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Lock-Up Letter. All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred and any obligations of the undersigned shall be binding upon the successors, assigns, heirs or personal representatives of the undersigned.

The undersigned understands that the undersigned shall be released from all obligations under this Lock-Up Letter if (i) either the Company or the Underwriters notifies the other party in writing that they do not intend to proceed with the Offering, (ii) the Underwriting Agreement does not become effective by October 1, 2018, or if the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the ADSs to be sold thereunder or (iii) the registration statement filed with the Commission with respect to the Offering has been effectively withdrawn. The undersigned understands that the Underwriters are entering into the Underwriting Agreement and proceeding with the Offering in reliance upon this Lock-Up Letter.

This Lock-Up Letter shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof.
