2. from the web page mentioned to you; Travel throughout Germany: on all means of local/regional public transport (such as RB, RE, U-Bahn(subway), S-Bahn, bus and tram). So you can use everything but no ICE, IC, EC, Railjet, Flixtrain or Flixbus. FEX is part of the regional trains and operated by DB Regio and included in the 9€ Ticket
Wow, FEX is included. That's the real deal. I'll be staying in Berlin for the coming months and will make several weekend trips. Gotta utilise and make the most of it.
