securities (within the meaning of Section 1021 of the Companies Act 2014) up to an aggregate nominal amount of:
€6,921,981.28 (86,524,766 Ordinary Shares), representing approximately 33% of the aggregate nominal value of the

The authority hereby conferred shall expire at the close of business on the date of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company after the passing of this Resolution or at midnight on the date which is 15 months after the passing of this Resolution, whichever is the earlier, provided however that the Company may before such expiry make an offer or agreement which would or might require relevant securities to be allotted after such expiry and the Directors may allot relevant securities in pursuance of such offer or agreement as if the authority hereby conferred had not expired."
Resolution 6
"That, subject to the approval of Resolution 5 in the Notice of this meeting, the Directors are hereby empowered pursuant to Sections 1022 and 1023 of the Companies Act 2014 to allot and issue equity securities (as defined in Section 1023 of the Companies Act 2014) for cash pursuant to the authority conferred by the said Resolution 5 and/or to sell Ordinary Shares held by the Company as treasury shares ("treasury shares") for cash as if sub-section (1) of Section 1022 did not apply to any such allotment or sale, provided that this power shall be limited to:
the allotment of equity securities in connection with any offer of securities, open for a period fixed by the Directors, by way of rights issue, open offer, other invitation or otherwise to or in favour of holders of Ordinary Shares (other than those holders with registered addresses outside Ireland to whom an offer would, in the opinion of the Directors, be impractical or unlawful in any jurisdiction) and/or any persons having a right to subscribe for or convert securities into Ordinary Shares (including, without limitation, any person entitled to options under any of the Company's share option schemes and/or share incentive plans for the time being) where the equity securities respectively attributable to the interests of such holders of Ordinary Shares or such persons are proportionate (as nearly as may be) to the respective number of Ordinary Shares held by them or for which they are entitled to subscribe or convert into and subject thereto to the allotment in any case by way of placing or otherwise of any securities not taken up in such issue or offer to such persons as the Directors may determine; and generally, subject to such exclusions or other arrangements as the Directors may deem necessary or expedient in relation to legal or practical problems under the laws of, or the requirement of any recognised body or stock exchange in, any territory;
in addition to the authority conferred by paragraph (a) of this Resolution, the allotment of equity securities or sale of treasury shares up to a maximum aggregate nominal value of €2,076,594.32 (25,957,429 Ordinary Shares) representing approximately 10% of the nominal value of the issued share capital (excluding treasury shares) as at the date of the Notice of this meeting; and
in addition to the authorities conferred by paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Resolution, the allotment of equity securities or sale of treasury shares up to a nominal value equal to 20% of any allotment of equity securities or sale of treasury shares from time to time under paragraph
(b) of this Resolution, such authority to be used only for the purposes of making a follow-on offer which the Directors determine to be of a kind contemplated by paragraph 3 of Section 2B of the Statement of Principles on Disapplying Pre-emption Rights published by the Pre-emption Group in November 2022.
This authority shall expire at the close of business on the date of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company after the passing of this Resolution or at midnight on the date which is 15 months after the passing of this Resolution, whichever is the earlier, save that the Company may before such expiry make an offer or agreement which would or might require equity securities to be allotted after such expiry and the Directors may allot equity securities in pursuance of such offer or agreement as if the authority hereby conferred had not expired."

the proceeds of any such allotment or sale are to be used only for the purposes of financing (or re-financing, if the authority is to be used within 12 months after the original transaction) a transaction which the Directors determine to be an acquisition or other capital investment of a kind contemplated by the Statement of Principles on Disapplying Pre-emption Rights published by the Pre-emption Group in November 2022;
such authority be limited to the allotment of equity securities or sale of treasury shares up to a nominal value of €2,076,594.32 (25,957,429 Ordinary Shares) representing approximately 10% of the nominal value of the issued share capital (excluding treasury shares) as at the date of the Notice of this meeting; and

This authority shall expire at the close of business on the date of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company after the passing of this Resolution or at midnight on the date which is 15 months after the passing of this Resolution, whichever is the earlier, save that the Company may before such expiry make an offer or agreement which would or might require equity securities to be allotted after such expiry and the Directors may allot equity securities in pursuance of such offer or agreement as if the authority hereby conferred had not expired."

105% of the average of the five amounts resulting from determining whichever of the following (A), (B) or (C) specified below in relation to the Ordinary Shares shall be appropriate for each of the five business days immediately preceding the day on which the relevant share is purchased, as determined from the information published by the trading venue where the purchase will be carried out reporting the business done on each of those five business days:
if there shall be more than one dealing reported for the day, the average of the prices at which such dealings took place; or
if there shall be only one dealing reported for the day, the price at which such dealing took place; or
if there shall not be any dealing reported for the day, the average of the high and low market guide prices for that day;
and if there shall be only a high (but not a low) or a low (but not a high) market guide price reported, or if there shall not be any market guide price reported, for any particular day then that day shall not count as one of the said five business days for the purposes of determining the maximum price. If the means of providing the foregoing information as to dealings and prices by reference to which the maximum price is to be determined is altered or is replaced by some other means, then a maximum price shall be determined on the basis of the equivalent information published by the relevant authority in relation to dealings on The Irish Stock Exchange plc, trading as Euronext Dublin, or in relation to dealings on the London Stock Exchange plc, or their respective equivalents; and
the higher of the price quoted for:
the last independent trade of; and

The authority hereby granted shall expire at the close of business on the date of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company after the passing of this Resolution or at midnight on the date which is 15 months after the passing of this Resolution, whichever is the earlier, unless previously varied, revoked or renewed by special resolution in accordance with the provisions of Section 1074 of the Companies Act 2014.

the maximum price at which a treasury share may be re-issued off-market shall be an amount equal to 120% of the "appropriate price"; and
the minimum price at which a treasury share may be re-issued off-market shall be the nominal value of the share where such a share is required to satisfy an obligation under an employee share scheme (as defined in the Euronext Dublin Listing Rules) operated by the Company or, in all other cases, an amount equal to 95% of the appropriate price.
For the purposes of this Resolution the expression "appropriate price" shall mean the average of the five amounts resulting from determining whichever of the following (i), (ii) or (iii) specified below in relation to shares of the class of which such treasury share is to be re- issued shall be appropriate in respect of each of the five business days immediately preceding the day on which the treasury share is re- issued, as determined from information published in the Daily Official List of The Irish Stock Exchange plc, trading as Euronext Dublin, reporting the business done in each of those five business days:
if there shall be more than one dealing reported for the day, the average of the prices at which such dealings took place; or
if there shall be only one dealing reported for the day, the price at which such dealing took place; or
if there shall not be any dealing reported for the day, the average of the high or low market guide prices for the day;
and if there shall be only a high (but not a low) or a low (but not a high) market guide price reported, or if there shall not be any market guide price reported, for any particular day then that day shall not count as one of the said five business days for the purposes of determining the appropriate price. If the means of providing the foregoing information as to dealings and prices by reference to which the appropriate price is to be determined is altered or is replaced by some other means, then the appropriate price shall be determined on the basis of the equivalent information published by the relevant authority in relation to dealings on The Irish Stock Exchange plc, trading as Euronext Dublin, or its equivalent.
The authority hereby conferred shall expire at the close of business on the date of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company after the passing of this Resolution or at midnight on the date which is 15 months after the passing of this Resolution, whichever is the earlier, unless previously varied or renewed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1078 of the Companies Act 2014."
