(1) Pursuant to Section 1105 of the Companies Act, only those persons registered on the Company's register of members: (i) at 6.00 p.m. on Sunday 26 April 2026; or (ii) if the AGM is adjourned, at the close of business on the day before the date that falls 72 hours prior to the adjourned AGM (for the purposes of these Notes only, being a "Shareholder"), shall be entitled to attend and vote at the AGM or, if relevant, any adjournment thereof. Changes to entries on the Company's register of members after that time will be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend and vote at the AGM.
(2) A Shareholder who is entitled to attend and vote at the AGM is entitled to appoint a proxy (or more than one proxy as alternates) to attend, speak and vote instead of the Shareholder. A proxy need not be a Shareholder. If you wish to appoint more than one proxy please contact the Company's Registrar, Computershare Investor Services (Ireland) Limited, on +353 1 247 5411. If you wish to appoint a proxy other than the Chair of the AGM, please insert the proxy's name and address and delete the words "the Chair of the AGM or".

(5) If this Form of Proxy is signed and returned without any indication as to how the person appointed is to vote, the proxy will exercise discretion as to how to vote or whether to abstain from voting.
(6) Completion and return of this Form of Proxy (or submission of proxy instructions electronically) will not prevent a shareholder from attending and voting in person at the AGM.
(7) In the case of joint holders, the vote of the senior holder who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the vote(s) of the other joint holder(s) and for this purpose seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names stand in the register of members in respect of the joint holding.
(8) Internet Voting: If, as an alternative to submitting this Form of Proxy, you wish to appoint (or remove) a proxy electronically, you may do so by accessing the Registrar's website at www.eproxyappointment.com.

To log in you will require your unique PIN (which will expire at the end of the voting period), your Shareholder Reference Number (SRN) and your Control Number, all of which are shown at the top of the Form of Proxy. Electronic proxy voting may occur through the use of a secured mechanism to exchange electronic messages (as agreed with Euroclear Bank).
